Yugo VS Yuri

Yugo vs. Yuri.

Turn 1: Yugo
As Yugo controls no cards, he activates "Speedraw", letting him draw two cards and send a "Speedroid" monster from his hand to his Graveyard. He sends "Speedroid Tri-Eyed Dice". He then Normal Summons "Speedroid Double Yoyo" (1400/1400). As "Double Yoyo" was Normal Summoned, its effect activates, letting Yugo Special Summon a Level 3 or lower "Speedroid" monster from his Graveyard. Yugo Special Summons "Tri-Eyed Dice" (300/1500). Yugo tunes the Level 4 "Double Yoyo" with the Level 3 Tuner monster "Tri-Eyed Dice" to Synchro Summon "Clear Wing Synchro Dragon" (2500/2000) in Attack Position. He Sets three cards.

Turn 2: Yuri
Yuri activates "Polymerization", fusing "Predaplant Flytrap" and "Predaplant Moray Nepenthes" from his hand to Fusion Summon "Starving Venom Fusion Dragon" (2800/2000) in Attack Position.

Differences in adaptations[]

  • During the flashback scene, there is a silhouette of a duelist coughing out blood after his monster was stabbed by Beast King Barbaros. In the English Dub, this scene was removed.
  • One of the poses made by the holographic woman with the car is cut from the dub.
  • All scenes of Z-ARC's attack on the Original Dimension are given a purple filter in the dub.
  • Leo's comments, one made when Z-ARC reveals that he will destroy the world just before summoning his Four Dragons and just before Z-ARC and the Four Dragons fuse together are cut from the dub.
  • Leo's voiceover describing Supreme King Z-ARC's power while Yuya is screaming in anger is left out in the dub.
  • Z-ARC's desire for power is changed to a desire for a greater challenge in the dub.

Trivia[]

  • Surprisingly, this episode's violent content was left largely unaltered in the dub, save for a couple of scenes. In the end of the dubbed version of the episode, Leo makes a direct reference to death (a extremely rare occurrence in Yu-Gi-Oh!'s US English Dubs), saying that he was willing to pay with his life to stop Z-ARC. Similar references are made in the dubbed version of the following episode.

Mistakes[]

  • The eye of "Odd-Eyes Dragon" is sometimes colored in yellow instead of green.
  • When Z-ARC is talking to the Four Dimension Dragons, his Duel Disk has "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" on it instead of "Odd-Eyes Dragon".(this was corrected in the dub)
  • The card text of "Astrograph Sorcerer" included the name "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon", which is impossible as "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" hadn't been created at that point.
