Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
I'm pretty sure most of this last episode didn't actually happen. Like, Yugo went up to high too fast with his bike and the sudden thinning of air made him hallucinate a duel while Kaito passed out from exhaustion after the climb and dreamed a duel, it's the only way to explain two short meaningless duels when the bad guy's plan was for the kids to rescue Rin and Ruri.

They didn't seriously put "Fudou Stlye Solitaire Theory" in the anime. Did they?

And I love the new card art from the Movie Pack

Solitaire is a game you play by yourself, and it's also an insult used against decks that tend to win within one or two turns, since the opponent might as well not be there. Coupled with the fact it's named after Yusei Fudou, AKA the protagonist of 5D's, and it might be a slightly-too-subtle jab at Synchron decks, which are just one of many decks to be 'gifted' the title of Solitaire.

Because Synchrons can keep playing off itself, cycling cards forever until x big monster can be summoned.
Turns take so long they may as well be playing solitaire.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.
the other jokes is that Card Metamorphosis is a reference to Yuya transforming his cards with Recontract Universe, and Super Polymerization was a big plot point in GX.

nah but it is a problem for a fairly large chunk of it, once you're pass that you get to some really dope stuff at least.

Also, saw this week's episode and you are correct, Yugo is the best.

And yes, Academia maining Antique Gear is absolutely a reference to that. Security in Synchro mains Goyo for another reference to the very first enemy of its own show, with Ushio. Xyz surprisingly doesn't have any Shark-using generic enemies.

Also the Lancers are facing Gozaburo next episode? Now that's something I didn't see coming! yes I know it's just a guy with a similar design

Yugioh GX is weird and I'm not even at the weird part yet. Maybe because I'm watching the dub, but still. I just finished the field trip arc, gotta watch out for those dueling rappers, they'll mess you up.

Yes.

He also is so bad at the game that he literally cheats by transforming the last card in his deck, which is known to be x card before it is drawn, into y card, with super specific effects that are just what he needs to win the duel.
