Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal (#ad) is an anime and manga sequence by Kazuki Takahashi. The foremost personality, Yuma Tsukumo, and Astral, a messenger from the Astral World, non-public joined the World Duel Carnival (WDC). They’re procuring for the Numbers Xyz playing cards, that are the pieces of Astral’s memories.
Yuma and Astral non-public gotten past the preliminary rounds of the competition. They’re now within the final rounds of the WDC, and to boot they’ll be up against tricky opponents. However who’s nervous? It be evident they’re no longer going to lose because they’re the indispensable characters, and the indispensable personality favoritism in this shroud is off the charts.
That manner or no longer it’s in most cases a on condition that they’ll be winning the match. Meh. It be too evil because I manufacture no longer desire them to receive. In fact I’m no longer looking out at this shroud for Yuma or even Astral (even supposing Astral is manner better than Yuma).
The next are my thoughts about episodes 55-58 of this anime shroud in no explicit bellow. For the sections marked by episode quantity, I’m going to be writing my feedback and opinions as I look acknowledged episode.
Episode 55
The previews for this episode printed that Kite / Kaito Tenjo and V / Quinton will be dueling. As I mentioned in my analysis of Episode 54, I’m nervous because I manufacture no longer desire Kite to lose to V. I desire him to receive. I hope he does. Conserving my fingers crossed. I’m going to be so dissatisfied if V finally ends up winning.
I mediate or no longer it’s good how steady Orbital 7 is to Kaito. He’s willing to face Kite’s wrath appropriate to cease by his side. I manufacture no longer mind him being there to glance Kite’s duel with V. However unfortunately, it looks luxuriate in Astral, Yuma, and Kotori Mizuki / Tori Meadows are going to be looking out on the duel as well. Meh.
I mute mediate those 3 haven’t got any alternate looking out at these assorted duels. I desire Yuma would in reality undergo a final result for looking out at these duels in preference to taking fragment within the finals luxuriate in he’s alleged to be doing. However perceive that nothing evil goes to happen to Yuma because he’s the indispensable personality.
I’m stunned the V vs Kaito duel has started already, but Yuma and the others non-public but to shroud up. Positively no longer complaining even supposing. V manages to summon an Xyz Numbers card within the indispensable flip (Number 9: Dyson Sphere / Numbers 9: Canopy Superstar – Dyson Sphere).
For now, he has the revenue over his opponent. Am hoping the indispensable phrase here is “for now”. I hope the truth that Quinton appears to be winning now appropriate manner that Kite will salvage a manner to flip issues around in a while.
This would per chance furthermore be corresponding to how Tron / Vetrix became once in a area to manufacture a comeback and receive even supposing Droite / Dextra had the revenue on the initiating of their match within the outdated episode.
Ugh. Will deserve to non-public identified Yuma and the others would shroud up rapidly. Did no longer circulation over them the least bit. Raise out we appropriate get back to the V vs Kaito duel already?
When Yuma confirmed up, Quinton says, “I didn’t mediate the total actors would salvage in a single residing luxuriate in this. This would per chance furthermore totally be the act of destiny.”
At those phrases, all I’d furthermore assume became once “LOL. Act of destiny? What act of destiny? More luxuriate in here’s going down because the dwelling acknowledged this has to happen now. Raise out we train contrived or what?”
I mean, severely, Yuma and the others are no longer even alleged to be here swish now. Yuma is alleged to be procuring for the particular person he has to duel as fragment of the World Duel Carnival finals.
Positive, he needs to toddle to Kaito about Droite, but there would possibly be no reason why he would per chance now not toddle to the man later. Why did it desire to be while Kaito became once busy dueling V?
Yuma wants Quinton to tell him the place his father (Kazuma Tsukumo) is. V agrees to tell him all that he is conscious of without mutter, but this does now not fabricate sense. Why would V be so willing to tell them something?
What does he produce by telling them what he is conscious of? Why no longer wait on issues to himself? It’d be a clear epic altogether if, train, Yuma (or Kite since he’s combating him swish now) has to beat him in a duel earlier than he’d tell them something.
Whoah, Dr. Faker is outwardly Kite and Hart / Haruto Tenjo’s father. Didn’t gape this coming. From the few cases the viewers non-public considered Dr. Faker, it didn’t seem luxuriate in he in reality cared about somebody, worthy less Kite or Hart. Plus, if he in reality cared about his sons, would he be the employ of them in this kind (luxuriate in making Kite salvage the Numbers Xyz playing cards)?
I mute do now not salvage why V is so willing to tell all people his epic. However, oh well, no longer lower than his epic is rather attention-grabbing. It be honest appropriate to learn more about Dr. Faker, Byron Arclight (V’s dad), and Kazuma.
Having Yuma’s dad detect at a image of his family appropriate makes me wonder how he would per chance be in a area to be connected to Yuma and Akari / Kari Tsukumo since he looks nothing luxuriate in them. Their hair types and colors are furthermore fully assorted.
The the same would per chance furthermore be acknowledged for Yuma and Akari’s mother, Mira / Mirai Tsukumo. No lower than Byron and Chris (V / Quinton) detect a piece alike. Even the younger version of Dr. Faker appears to non-public a piece of a resemblance with Kite, no longer lower than in the case of their hair colour and fragment of their hair types.
I’m questioning why Dr. Faker needs to salvage the door to the Parallel Worlds or assorted dimensions so badly that he’s willing to sacrifice other folks if that’s what it would rob to manufacture his goals.
I recount with a name luxuriate in Faker, it mustn’t be beautiful that he would betray Byron and Kazuma. I in reality feel evil for Byron even supposing because he regarded as Dr. Faker a first rate buddy and told Kazuma he would manufacture his most attention-grabbing to back Faker manufacture his goals.
So Tron / Vetrix is fully Byron Arclight. I mute mediate Tron’s crazy, and I mute detest him for what he did to Droite. I luxuriate in him as Byron even supposing.
Then again or no longer it’s comprehensible that he would substitute pondering all that he’d been through. Additionally, I salvage that he wants revenge on Faker, but why does he desire to rob out his arouse on Droite who hadn’t wronged him?
Kite says he only cares about his little brother, and he didn’t in reality non-public worthy of a response to V’s epic. However I’m questioning what took residing to his family? Turn into Haruto born sick? Where is their mother?
How reach Dr. Faker doesn’t seem to care about his teenagers? How reach Kite doesn’t seem to care about his father? This episode introduced some answers and a form of questions. Having a detect forward to finding out the answers to these questions within the approaching episodes.
Episode 56
This episode would possibly per chance be the continuation of the duel between Quinton and Kaito. Amassed feeling nervous and mute conserving my fingers crossed. Kite had better receive this duel.
So III (Trey) and IV (Quattro) are apparently V’s little brothers. However am in reality no longer seeing the resemblance the least bit. III and IV detect nothing luxuriate in V and Tron. They effect no longer even detect luxuriate in each and every assorted. Their hair types and hair colors are so assorted. No lower than V and Tron detect a piece alike. However what about III and IV? Why manufacture they detect so assorted?
I salvage that Quinton hates Dr. Faker for what the man did to his family and for inflicting his family to interrupt aside, but he mustn’t be taking his arouse and hatred out on Faker’s kids. Kaito and Haruto (#ad) had nothing to manufacture with what took residing. Why must they should always undergo for what their dad did?
Kite unearths that he hates his dad, which will not be the least bit times in reality all that beautiful pondering what now we non-public considered to this point. V apparently is conscious of about this even supposing, so why does he mute blame Kaito for what Dr. Faker did?
Number 9: Dyson Sphere / Numbers 9: Canopy Superstar – Dyson Sphere is severely overpowered. Its anime manufacture is:
“Can no longer be destroyed by battle moreover with “Number” monsters. If this card with Xyz Enviornment materials is attacked: Say that assault (here’s a Rapid Manufacture). When this card is focused for an assault while it has no Xyz Enviornment materials: It’s seemingly you’ll furthermore target 2 monsters on your Graveyard; effect those targets to this card as Xyz Materials. It’s seemingly you’ll furthermore detach 1 Xyz Enviornment materials from this card; this card can assault your opponent trusty now this flip. Your opponent must wait on watch over a monster with better ATK than this card so that you can activate and to salvage to the backside of this manufacture.”
It be nearly invincible. I became once in reality nervous that Kite would cease up losing severely when his life capabilities saved shedding till he only had 100 left.
I became once so happy that he became once in a area to flip issues around and receive by Xyz summoning Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon.
This became once a honest appropriate duel. I severely luxuriate in how Kite became once in a area to receive with out a need to resort to a Shining Procedure (*cough*dishonest*cough).
I mean, I recount it would per chance furthermore be argued that there became once mute dishonest eager since Kite managed to plan the playing cards he wanted on the swish moment, but, nonetheless, is now not the least bit times in reality that the case for the total duels in this shroud?
All of the characters cease up drawing the playing cards they desire to plan. Here’s the case even for characters who are alleged to lose. Those that are no longer allowed to receive cease up drawing the playing cards they want to allow them to lose while those who must receive cease up drawing the playing cards they desire to receive.
Unlike with Yuma and Astral, no longer lower than Kaito didn’t desire to kind a card out of thin air to receive this duel. Plus, the playing cards Kaito drew were in reality a fraction of his deck. So there became once no blatant dishonest eager, certainly nothing that screams deus ex machina.
This became once appropriate an total gratifying and fun duel. I didn’t even cease up hating V. I’m no longer unhappy he lost even supposing. I’m chuffed that Kite obtained.
IMHO, Kaito is mute the appropriate personality in Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal. He is awesome and honest appropriate. I salvage him manner more attention-grabbing and likable than Yuma. There is depth and personality to his personality. He’s no longer excellent, and that is worthy.
His imperfections fabricate him human and relatable now not like Yuma who comes across as manner too honest appropriate to be honest appropriate. Yuma is simply too pure and too excellent, so there are cases when he does’t seem trusty or human.
Instruct. I in reality desire Kite became once the indispensable personality in preference to Yuma. I furthermore desire him to receive the World Duel Carnival, but I’m no longer preserving my hopes up. From the salvage-toddle, or no longer it’s evident that Yuma goes to receive. I’m already dreading having to mediate about that fragment. Meh.
The next episode preview presentations IV and Shark (Ryoga Kamishiro / Reginald Kastle) dueling. I’m hoping Shark wins. After Kite, he’s my subsequent well-liked personality in this shroud.
Episode 57
Conserving my fingers crossed for Shark to receive his duel against IV. I’m going to be so dissatisfied if Ryoga loses.
Ugh, I’m no longer stunned that Yuma, Astral, and Kotori non-public once again ended up looking out at a duel that must non-public had nothing to manufacture with them. I’m appropriate in reality dissatisfied about this.
Why manufacture those 3 desire to be shroud the total time anyway? Can not now we non-public got a duel the place Yuma doesn’t shroud up the least bit (both as a participant or as a watcher)? Why does he desire to be across the total time (assorted than the truth that he’s unfortunately the indispensable personality)?
One other thing I in reality must wonder about is why the duels are no longer going down simultaneously? All of the contributors must non-public arrived at their respective battlefields in more or less the same time.
So how reach the Tron vs Droite, the V vs Kite, and the Shark vs IV duels didn’t happen on the same time? This sounds so contrived, luxuriate in the fits needed to happen one at a time appropriate so Yuma and the others would per chance furthermore glance each and every duel.
With IV and Shark dueling, or no longer it’s evident that Yuma and Gauche would possibly per chance be the ones combating. It be furthermore already evident that Gauche goes to lose. Meh.
Now now not in reality expecting that the least bit. I’d furthermore comparatively Yuma be the one to lose. Raise out we appropriate non-public Kite be the one to defeat Tron and Dr. Faker? Yuma doesn’t desire to salvage entangled.
Shark manages to Xyz summon a monster (Submersible Carrier Aero Shark / Underwater Mothership Aero Shark) on his first flip. At this point, I’m no longer impressed.
It appears luxuriate in each and every assorted personality is ready to summon 2 monsters and then employ those monsters to Xyz summon, all within the same flip. By now, this has became the norm, and I’m getting sick of how customarily this play is outdated. I mean, within the closing duel, V furthermore managed to summon Dyson Sphere within the indispensable flip.
Heck, Quattro furthermore managed to Xyz summon Number 15: Gimmick Puppet Big Grinder / Numbers 15: Gimmick Puppet – Big Killer in his first flip. I desire they’d substitute issues even appropriate a piece of bit.
How ‘bout the characters do now not salvage to Xyz summon within the indispensable flip? Or how ‘bout their summon or particular summon is negated? Seriously, doesn’t somebody non-public a counter entice card luxuriate in Solemn Judgment or Unlit Horn of Heaven or something?
Since IV managed to summon a Numbers Xyz card, he now has the revenue. I’m hoping this implies Ryoga will be in a area to flip issues around in a while so he can receive.
Jeez, at any time when Tron presentations up, he makes me detest him blueprint more. Most steadily, or no longer it’s onerous to imagine he’s alleged to be Byron Arclight. Tron is nothing luxuriate in Byron.
Byron came across as likable. He appears to be a first rate buddy and he appears to care about his kids as well. In distinction to that, Tron doesn’t seem to care about something assorted than revenge. He has even resorted to the employ of his sons for revenge.
If Tron in reality wanted Yuma to conclude up, he must non-public gagged him too in preference to appropriate tying him up. The entire time Yuma saved occurring about his dueling spiel (how dueling mustn’t be outdated for revenge, how other folks became company once they duel, and loads others), the sole thing I’d furthermore assume became once that he became once this kind of hypocrite and would per chance honest in reality appropriate shut up now.
Yuma himself acknowledged he would per chance now not forgive Tron and even Dr. Faker for what they did. And now he has the gall to toddle on about how dueling mustn’t be outdated for revenge. LOL. What a shaggy dog epic.
Ryoga manages to Xyz summon Number 32: Shark Drake / Numbers 32: Marine Biting Dragon – Shark Drake. I’d were more impressed if he in reality managed to salvage 3 monsters on his topic to summon this card.
However what I have been noticing is that nearly all of the characters non-public playing cards luxuriate in Bubble Bringer, which permits them to treat one monster as 2 Xyz materials or overlay devices for an Xyz summon.
In manufacture, you cease up the employ of only 2 monsters to Xyz summon a monster that requires 3 monsters. This feels luxuriate in a cop out. I mean, the indispensable few cases is comely. However, by now, the novelty of this tactic has worn off.
I desire to mediate about something new. What’s the purpose of announcing an Xyz monster wants 3 Xyz materials if only 2 will cease up being outdated anyway?
I conception this duel would cease in this episode since Ryoga in reality managed to murder Big Killer along with his Shark Drake. IV managed to manufacture a comeback even supposing and even got to Xyz summon Number 40: Gimmick Puppet of Strings / Numbers 40: Gimmick Puppet – Heaven’s Strings.
I’m questioning if here’s because IV had 2 Numbers playing cards, and so the duel would per chance now not cease till each and every those playing cards had been summoned.
Things are looking out evil for Ryoga now. His life capabilities were lowered to 500. Am mute rooting for him to receive even supposing. Conserving my fingers crossed.
On the cease of this episode:
- I’m initiating to despise Yuma
- I mute desire Shark to receive
- I mute don’t luxuriate in IV, but I did cease up feeling a piece sorry for him since he became once only following Tron’s orders and but Tron doesn’t seem to care about him the least bit
- I mute detest Tron
- I mute detest Kotori
Episode 58
The Quattro vs Ryoga duel is sustained in this episode. I luxuriate in how Shark is looking out to resist succumbing to the wait on watch over of his Numbers Xyz card. I luxuriate in that he’s fully struggling and issues are no longer going easy for him.
Exhibiting him having a onerous time and but mute attempting will fabricate his victory (mute hoping he’ll receive against IV) blueprint more gratifying. It be cases luxuriate in this the place I in reality desire characters luxuriate in Ryoga and Kite would per chance furthermore be the indispensable characters in preference to Yuma.
On account of issues are continually okay with Yuma. He will not be any longer even struggling from the Numbers playing cards even supposing it would were more believable if he furthermore needed to address struggling no longer to lose himself to the Numbers.
I’m feeling an increasing number of sorry for IV. I’m mute rooting for Shark to receive, but this episode is exhibiting more depth to IV’s personality. We’re being proven that he’s now not any longer appropriate some crazy, sizzling-blooded, sizzling-tempered evil man who needs to give other folks his version of “fanservice”.
The viewers is being proven that he does care about his father and that he’s doing what he’s doing (luxuriate in combating against Shark, getting Shark’s sister harm, and loads others) for his father.
Appropriate after I conception I would per chance now not per chance detest Tron more, he goes and opens his mouth and proves me shocking. He’s scandalous for the employ of his teenagers in this kind.
All of them followed his orders, looking out to thrill him, looking out to return to how issues were, but he’s changed. He’s no longer the same man as Byron anymore, which is de facto unhappy because Byron is likable.
Wow, Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal, manner to shroud me swish. Once more, we’re launched to but one other monster (Gimmick Puppet Nightmare) who has an manufacture that allows it to be handled as 2 Xyz materials. I’m so sick of this.
Can not now we non-public got something new? What’s the purpose of requiring 3 monsters to Xyz summon a particular monster when the characters are going to preserve on the employ of 2 monsters anyway?
Quattro summons Number 88: Gimmick Puppet of Leo / Numbers 88: Gimmick Puppet – Future Leo, but I in reality must wonder why. What’s the purpose assorted than because the dwelling acknowledged this has to happen?
I mean, swish now, he already has Heaven’s Strings on his side of the topic, and it has 3000 assault capabilities to boot to 1 overlay unit. I must no longer non-public minded him summoning Future Leo if he didn’t must effect away with Heaven’s Strings to manufacture it.
He already outdated up his battle fragment this flip (since he misplayed and wasn’t in a area to harm Ryoga in any manner), but summoning Future Leo didn’t substitute the final result for him this flip. If Leo can fabricate him receive this flip, then I wouldn’t be questioning why he’d summon this card.
However since nothing in reality changed for him this flip, then what’s the purpose? It be luxuriate in he appropriate replaced Heaven’s Strings with Future Leo, so he went from a monster with 3000 assault to one with 3200 assault, which will not be the least bit times in reality worthy of a distinction.
Positive, Leo does non-public a moderately honest appropriate manufacture, however the purpose is that summoning it would per chance furthermore honest no longer receive Quattro the duel swish away. He mute has to reduction.
Yuma did the Chaos Xyz Alternate (Chaos Xyz Evolution) too when he changed his Number 39: Utopia / Numbers 39: Kibou Hope to Number C39: Utopia Ray / Chaos Numbers 39: Kibou Hope Ray, so how reach or no longer it’s alleged to be regarded as evil that Shark became once in a area to manufacture that as well?
I manufacture no longer luxuriate in that Shark ended up succumbing to the affect of Shark Drake (here’s all Tron’s fault; he saved on goading Ryoga). I hoped that Shark would wait on announcing no and then glimpse a vitality all on his non-public without the affect of the Numbers clouding his heart and shrouding it in darkness.
I luxuriate in that Shark became once in a area to develop a Chaos Xyz Alternate, but I manufacture no longer luxuriate in that here’s being viewed as evil or that this took residing ensuing from the affect of his Numbers. It be no longer swish because Yuma became once in a area to manufacture that too, and no-one is announcing he’s evil for doing it. Ugh. The foremost personality favoritism in this shroud is de facto something else.
Shark obtained. However his victory feels bittersweet to me. I didn’t in reality enjoy it as worthy as I loved Kite’s victory over V. Portion of here’s ensuing from how Shark managed to receive by the employ of Number C32: Shark Drake Veiss / Chaos Numbers 32: Marine Biting Dragon – Shark Drake Veiss. One other fragment is how Quattro ended up being sympathetic.
The closing is because Tron heavily interfered in this duel. It felt luxuriate in Tron became once making toddle that IV would fabricate a form of misplays, so he’d cease up losing.
Tron furthermore tried to steer Ryoga similar to by looking out to salvage him to preserve on the employ of his Numbers card. It feels luxuriate in Ryoga didn’t in reality deserve this victory because if Tron hadn’t been around, Quattro would non-public obtained.
Argh, Yuma in reality needs to cease along with his hypocritical prattling about how no one must salvage revenge through dueling. Seriously, what number of cases has he acknowledged he would per chance furthermore honest no longer forgive Tron for what he did to Droite and to his sons?
He comes across as nothing but a hypocrite when he retains telling all people else they mustn’t duel for revenge. How reach Yuma can duel for revenge when others can’t? Ugh. He’s so frustrating.
On the cease of this episode:
- I detest Tron even larger than I hated him earlier than. He’s doing a first rate job competing with Kotori for the personality I detest most in Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal
- Unfortunately for Kotori, Tron wasn’t in a area to beat her. She’s mute the worst personality in this shroud, and I mute detest her with the hearth of a thousand burning suns
- I manufacture no longer in reality detest IV anymore. Thanks to the total issues that were printed about him, he’s became a piece more likable and sympathetic. There is furthermore more depth to his personality now, so he doesn’t appear to be appropriate some crazy evil man. I’m feeling more fair against him
- Ryoga is mute my second well-liked personality in this anime, but, as I already mentioned above, I became once comparatively dissatisfied along with his duel against IV
- I’m in reality initiating to despise Yuma. By now, or no longer it’s bordering a piece on detest. He’d better cease being a hypocrite and a cheater. Instruct. I desire he’d cease being the indispensable personality. Raise out we appropriate give that residing to Kaito? He deserves it manner larger than Yuma
The next episode preview presentations that or no longer it’s within the spoil Yuma’s flip to duel. Didn’t circulation over his duels the least bit severely since I already know the final result of this battle. Obviously, Yuma goes to receive.
Oh, Gauche is doubtless going to be taking the simpler hand, but Yuma will be in a area to manufacture a comeback. There is no question about this.
I desire Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal (#ad) would shroud me shocking, but I furthermore perceive it wouldn’t because issues are already residing in stone. The foremost personality appropriate can’t lose.
If only I in reality preferred the indispensable personality in this shroud, then this wouldn’t be so evil. However Yuma has in reality been anxious me plenty over the final few episodes. I hope issues salvage better or that we viewers can gape Kite rapidly. I circulation over him already.
Miscellaneous
- The brand new opening (Soul Drive by Color Bottle) and ending (Wild Child by Moumoon) songs are increasing on me, but I mute desire the indispensable two
- I desire to mediate about more Xyz monsters with better ranks. By now, I’m so sick of seeing the long-established sinister 4s (this implies you, Utopia; you non-public in reality overstayed your welcome)
- I desire to mediate about the characters Xyz summon monsters that require 3 or more overlay materials. The entire unsolicited mail 2 monsters on the topic then employ them to Xyz summon has gotten outdated. I desire to mediate about something assorted in preference to the long-established tactic many cases
