04x15 - End of Destiny! Magma Neos vs. Dark Ruler

[bunniefuu]

Saiou! Just rethink this!

Stop this duel right now, and let's figure out a way to save Mizuchi together !

It's too late...

We can no longer stop this duel, I'm afraid.

Saiou...

Losing my power to foresee destiny led to a lack of peace in the battle-free life I lived.

A strange anxiety... A vexation... A sense of loss...

On top of it all, my beloved sister Mizuchi was taken...

...and it was then that I saw the light!

One who wields great power must continue to desire it--more powerfully and more greedily!

And those who refuse it will be unable to protect that which they hold dear!

Saiou? What are you even...

Don't ever forget the dream that started it all!

Don't ever forget the dream that started it all!

Just keep chasing it down!Keep holding on!

Just keep chasing it down!Keep holding on!

I was about to give up on my unreachable broken dreams...

I was about to give up on my unreachable broken dreams...

...on these deserted promises...

...on these deserted promises...

Those words you stuck into my heart just won't fade away...

Those words you stuck into my heart just won't fade away...

...as I keep repeating them in my mind.

...as I keep repeating them in my mind.

But now, all this wind is pushing right into my back!

But now, all this wind is pushing right into my back!

The Fall of Destiny!Magma Neos VS The Dark Ruler

I've concluded my turn.

Now, let us see you defy destiny!

I draw!

And my Tour of the Reaper's effect activates.

Due to the Monster Effect of The Fool on your field, I am given the choice of its position!

I will have it be upright!

A repeat...

With its upright effect, I can't summon any monsters...

Those who are subdued by the Fool and Reaper are left with no means of altering their fate!

What should I do?

I can't att*ck with my monsters, and my deck'll keep getting cut short thanks to his Sowing of the Fool...

At this rate, is standing around while my Life or deck runs out all I can do?

Isn't this...

That's it!

Fate hasn't closed its doors on me yet!

I set one card face-down...

...to end my turn!

End your turn ?

No, all will end--and destiny will fall !

I draw!

I use The Chariot...

...to att*ck The Fool!

Feeler Cannon!!

We're not done yet !

Here's my Instant Magic...

...Kuriboh-Summoning Flute!

From my deck, I Special-Summon Winged Kuriboh!

Your upright combo with The Fool and your Tour of the Reaper...

Their effects are nasty, sure, but Tour of the Reaper only keeps me from summoning during my turn!

In other words, I'll get to summon monsters out during your turn!

My foolproof combo eliminates all means of offense and defense...

So, you've realized its only flaw, Judai?

Even so, what good will being able to summon that runt of a monster do?

You will not be able to hold off The Chariot's att*ck with that !

Nope, I can !

I open my reversed card!

I'll send two cards in my hand off to my Cemetery to activate Evolutionary Wings!

And Winged Kuriboh evolves to Winged Kuriboh LV!

Winged Kuriboh LV puts itself on the line to destroy all att*ck-Mode monsters on my opponent's field...

...and deal my opponent damage equal to their ATK!

What ?

Great save, Winged Kuriboh!

Curse you...

Even so, my turn has yet to end!

I summon Arcana Force VI - The Lovers!

Due to The Fool's Monster Effect...

...I will have it be upright!

And my Equip Magic, Reverse Reborn!

I will choose one monster from my Cemetery that has "Arcana Force" in its name...

...and Special-Summon it in att*ck Mode, equipping it with this card.

Through its effect, I summon The Chariot!

It took so long to take those two out, and you just summoned two more ?

It wasn't even worth it...

Don't flatter yourself, for you will soon bear even tighter shackles!

What?!

The Lovers's upright effect!

When summoning a monster that has "Arcana Force" in its name, I am able to treat it as two sacrifices in one !

May the power that governs fate be seared into your very eyes!

I sacrifice The Lovers and my Chariot...

...to summon Arcana Force EX - The Dark Ruler!

It has ATK!

So, that's his ace monster now?

Cue The Fool's Monster Effect.

I will have it be upright!

The Dark Ruler's upright effect will allow it to att*ck twice during the Battle Phase!

What?!

Of course, it is a shame that this turn's Battle Phase is already behind us...

My Permanent Magic, Sowing of the Fool!

I target The Dark Ruler, using The Fool's effect to make it reversed once more!

And now, for every points of ATK The Dark Ruler has, you will send...

... card--or a total of --from your deck to your Cemetery!

?!

With this, you now have a mere cards remaining in your deck.

I will now conclude my turn.

Now, it would be your turn! Draw your card!

And once I draw my card, my deck'll be down to ...

On Saiou's next turn, it'll hit zero...

Even if I get a next turn, I'm losing this either way...

This leaves your fate at the end of its rope...

Judai...

Who's there?

My voice should be able to reach you.

That voice...

Now, focus your eyes.

Using your powers will allow you to see me, won't it?

My powers?

Mizuchi!

I so... It really was you...

Judai...

Never did I expect that I would see you again like this ...

Mizuchi... Where are they holding you?

Is there something I can do to get you out?

Did you say "Mizuchi?!"

How dare you toy with me!

Saiou?

My voice won't reach my elder brother...

As often as I called out to him, it was futile...

Now, it's your turn!

Hurry and draw!

Judai, I beg of you...

Use your powers to save my brother...

Saiou ? You want me to save Saiou and not you ?

But why's that ?

By being defeated in his last duel with you...

...the Light of Destruction within my brother should have been fully extinguished.

I believed that his resulting life as an ordinary being was something that my brother truly desired...

But that was far from the case.

As my brother was unaware of even himself , he couldn't escape his lustful desire for an even stronger power.

As he is now, my brother can only be saved through your duel...

Please, do what you can to free my brother...

Easy for you to say...

First off, even if I do defeat Saiou, how are we going to save you ?

I was only used as an excuse to cause the awakening of my brother's lust...

Mizuchi!

My voice won't reach you as it is for much longer...

Please... My brother...

Mizuchi!

I draw!

Tour of the Reaper's effect activates!

The Fool's Monster Effect will make it upright!

Now, your deck has been reduced to .

During my next turn, I will send you and your deck to the other world!

That won't happen!

Even if I don't have a lot of options, one of them's bound to have the key to cutting through destiny!

That's the kind of dueling I believe in!

I set two cards face-down...

...to end my turn.

How pitiful!

With its absolute power in control of this field, you haven't a shred of hope of defying fate !

Pay close attention to the last turn you will ever witness!

I draw!

I use The Dark Ruler to att*ck The Fool!

That's weird...

I knew it... Not one of these names are matching up...

No way... Give them another good look.

We've all had a duel with at least ten students at this point, so if one of them isn't on there...

Hey, can we even trust that list?

What the...

These aren't all the Duel Academia students, right?

No...

It has been bugging me, though...

Were there always a few people at the entrance?

Good point... Where could everyone have gone?

That's weird...

I can't remember the faces of everyone I dueled today...

Yeah, neither can I...

Come on... Are you guys half-asleep?

You're not as dumb as Judai ...

Wait... Where did he go?

I Judai was out with Kenzan-kun ...

No sign of him-don ...

Big Bro Judai...

Why'd you tell me to find Sorano -saurus?

Sorano?

Was my Dark Ruler's att*ck--

How did that happen?

Before The Dark Ruler att*cked, I had A Hero Appears activate.

At the time, I had one card in my hand: a Monster card, Miracle Flipper.

So, with the effect of A Hero Appears, I Special-Summoned Miracle Flipper in Defense Mode.

My Miracle Flipper has three Monster Effects.

One of them makes it the only monster my opponent can att*ck as long as I have it face-up on the field.

Then, when he's destroyed in battle, his second one Special-Summons him onto my opponent's field.

I don't know what you have in mind, but I do not intend to play along!

Do not forget that The Dark Ruler's upright effect is going to allow me two att*cks!

This will finish you!

I use The Dark Ruler to att*ck The Fool!

What ?!

When Necro Guardna's in my Cemetery, removing it from the game negates an opposing monster's att*ck once !

It's thanks to you sending it to the Cemetery earlier with Sowing of the Fool that I got to activate it.

Due to its upright effect, my Dark Ruler will go into Defense Mode.

I guess having too much power can backfire on you, Saiou!

Curse you!

But even so, Sowing of the Fool's next activation...

...will see your fate come to an end!

Is that a fact?

What ?

My Trap card, Hero Blast!

I choose one Elemental Hero from my Cemetery and add it to my hand...

...to destroy one opposing monster with less ATK than my monster!

I'll go with Sparkman...

...to destroy the opposing monster with an ATK lower than Sparkman's : Miracle Flipper!

How did that help?!

Saiou, it looks like the road of fate's opened up!

What ?

Here's Miracle Flipper's third effect!

When he's destroyed by the effect of a Magic or Trap, a monster on the opponent's field...

...or, basically, my field gets destroyed!

What was that?!

That's right!

And the monster I have on my field...

I see!

Judai was performing such a complex strategy in order to destroy The Fool!

It's just like with Tour of the Reaper!

As invincible as The Fool was, unaffected by any effect...

...the only effects that didn't work on it were mine !

Which means that your Monster Effects would get to destroy it!

Now, then...

This made it so you can't control fate anymore!

Want to give Sowing of the Fool a sh*t?

It'd be my pleasure!

I target The Dark Ruler...

...to activate Sowing of the Fool!

Now, may you lower the curtain of fate with your own hands!

Stop there!

Wh... It's upright ?!

All right...

Thanks to its upright effect, you'll be sending cards from your deck to the Cemetery!

Then, as soon as The Fool faded away, was my destiny thrown into disarray?

There's no such thing as a power that controls fate !

Your old self would've known that better than anyone .

I place two cards face-down...

...to conclude my turn!

Correct! I don't need you to tell me that !

But then, even if one is able to defy destiny...

...they cannot defy their lust for power !

Judai, being that the powers of the Supreme King once gripped you...

...you would know this better than anyone !

I haven't lost to some lust for power !

By accepting all of those powers, this is what I truly figured out!

Power isn't something you use to quench your lust !

It's what you use to carry out a bigger mission!

Saiou, you once gave me the mission of putting a stop to Darkness's invasion.

And I'm about to use my powers to carry it out!

I draw!

Tour of the Reaper activates!

Stop there!

It's reversed ?!

And now, I'm allowed to summon my monsters!

I activate the Magic card, Hope of Fifth!

I'll choose five Elemental Heroes from my Cemetery...

...shuffle them into my deck...

...and draw two cards!

Here they come... His Fusion Monsters...

I have to strengthen The Dark Ruler's protection...

I activate my Trap! A Reversing Fate!

Due to its effect, I will make The Dark Ruler's effect be reversed!

In addition, I activate Arcana Call!

By choosing The Fool, sent to my Cemetery, The Dark Ruler will gain his reverse effect until the conclusion of this turn!

In other words, it is impervious to your Magic, Trap, and Monster effects!

I activate the Magic card, Miracle Contact!

So, you did aim for that!

I hate to admit it, but there are plenty of Fusion Materials in your Cemetery!

But no matter what monster you call forth...

...its effect will be useless against The Dark Ruler!

I send Neos, Flare Scarab, and Gran Mole from my Cemetery back to my deck...

...to Special-Summon Elemental Hero Magma Neos!

Magma Neos' Monster Effect...

...raises his ATK by points times the number of cards on the field!

What ?! His ATK has climbed past The Dark Ruler's?!

I use Magma Neos to att*ck The Dark Ruler!

Go!

Super Heat Meteor!!

Even so, we are far from done!

The Dark Ruler's reverse effect!

When it leaves the field, it destroys all cards on the field!

Then, during my next turn...

...The Dark Ruler will return to the field!

And when it does, Judai, that will be when your fate truly meets its end!

Unfortunately, Saiou, that's one moment that will never come!

What ?!

My Instant Magic, Reverse of Neos!

With your ATK raised by points...

...come back to me, Neos!

Give Saiou a direct att*ck!

Wrath of Neos!!

Farewell, my destiny...

Saiou!

Saiou!

So, this is the fall of the fate that was prepared for me...

A fitting end for Takuma Saiou, the true fool...

Mizuchi...

Brother, I will stay with you...

Mizuchi... Saiou...

Oh, Mizuchi... Forgive me...

I was a powerless fool of an elder brother until my last breath...

It's all right... I will always be with you, Brother.

Mizuchi...

Mizuchi... Saiou...

Judai, thank you.

You've released us from the crimes of this world.

Farewell, Judai.

Saiou... Mizuchi...

I swear it... I'll save you two, as well...

You have to use your best card to go grab onto...

...that shining, endless dueling dream you want to come true.

Your courage has sparked up dramas of wonder...

You'll see that they won't end.

Franklin Gothic Medium Cond So, let's go make a chance out of this pinch we're in.

We'll do it... We sure will.

That rainbow bridge will get crossed over...

...and the future will be ours to hold!

Beyond that door, we're sure to find...

...that there's a dark shadow standing in our way...

...so keep your crimson flames alight!

You have to use your best card to go grab onto...

Ending Theme

...that shining, endless dueling dream you want to come true.

Franklin Gothic Medium Cond It won't matter what kind of rough times we're all in for...

...just as long as you take in the smiles of the friends you trust.

Something's off here...

Was the Duel Academia always this empty?

Mizuchi! Saiou! I'm going to save you both!

Big Bro...

Does this have anything to do with Big Bro going to Domino City?

Damn... The explosions are everywhere...

I can't outrun them!

Next time: "Crisis at the Duel Academia! The Obstructive Gem Beasts!"

Guys! I will make it back! Just hold on!

Mr. T, why do you have the Gem Beasts?!

You couldn't have...

Today's best card is Miracle Flipper!

A master of three effects, he's the hope of every Spellcaster-Type!

And when a Magic or Trap destroys him, he'll destroy one opposing monster!
