Keith's Machinations, Part 1, known as Cruel - Heavy Metal Deck in the Japanese version, is the thirty-first episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! second series anime.

The second Duel of the Duelist Kingdom Finals begins, with Joey Wheeler facing off against Bandit Keith and his near-invincible Machine Deck.

Summary

The first Duel of the Duelist Kingdom finals has concluded. Yugi Muto has defeated Mai Valentine and will be dueling the winner of the next duel, Joey Wheeler vs. Bandit Keith. When Croquet asks both contestants to show their tournament entry cards, Keith shows the one he took from Joey. When Joey reaches for his, he can't find it. He has five minutes to find that card or he will be disqualified. Joey searches all over his room for it, but to no avail. He is just about to give up when Mai comes in and gives him her card. He arrives at the Dueling Arena just in the nick of time.

The Duel between Joey and Bandit Keith begins, and Keith is revealed to be using a Machine-Type Deck. Unknown to Joey, Keith's Machine monsters are immune to non-physical attacks, and when Joey's first attack fails due to this, he is left exposed and takes damage. Keith lures him into opening his defenses again by moving to Set a monster and "accidentally" dropping it. Joey recognizes it as a non-Machine and seizes the opportunity for a powerful magical attack, but Yugi and Bakura realize that "Zoa" has ATK that is not only higher than its DEF, but also higher than the ATK of any other monster in play. The only reason to Set a monster like that in Defense Position is as a lure.

But it is too late to warn Joey, who falls into the trap and takes heavy damage. Just as Keith prepares to deliver the final blow, his attack gets stopped, and everyone is thunderstruck to see that Joey also had a trap and just knocked out the strongest monster on Keith's field. On his next turn, Joey sets another card and announces that it is a Trap. He also begins a counterattack and taunts Keith in his inimitably grating fashion. Enraged at Joey's mockery and presumption, Keith attacks, but it wasn't a bluff, and it costs him the last monster on his field. With a handful of low-level monsters and his own dueling style, Joey has turned the duel into a neck-to-neck battle, but Keith knows that this duel is far from over. Will Joey defeat Keith and his mighty Machine monsters, or will he be eliminated and lose his chance to save his sister, Serenity Wheeler?

Turn 3: Bandit Keith

Turn 4: Joey
Joey Normal Summons "Giltia the D. Knight" (1850/1500) in Attack Position. "Giltia the D. Knight" attacks "Pendulum Machine", but the attack doesn't destroy it or inflict Battle Damage to Keith. Keith explains that his Machine-Type monsters are immune to Magic or non-physical attacks because of their metal armor.

Turn 5: Bandit Keith

"Flame Swordsman" attacks Keith's set monster: "Zoa", but Keith activates "Magic Metal Force" to transform "Zoa" into "Metalzoa" in Defense Position (3000/2300). Keith then explains that "Metalzoa" reflects all magical attacks back to the attacking monster. "Flame Swordsman" destroys himself and Joey takes damage equal to the ATK difference between "Metalzoa" and "Flame Swordsman" (Joey 1650 → 1150).

Turn 9: Bandit Keith
Keith draws Magic Card "Stop Defense" and subsequently activates it to switch Joey's Set monster, "Axe Raider" (1700/1150) into Attack Position.

Duel concludes next episode.

Differences In Adapations

  • The shot of "Pendulum Machine" dragging "Battle Warrior" up to his feet then slicing him in half is cut from the US version, and is replaced by white slashes diagonally left and right.
  • Cut from the US version at the beginning when Yami turns back into Yugi, Yugi tells his friends that he is not the one who duels, and that it is Yami.
  • When Croquet announces the duel, cut from the US version is a bit where Honda tells Jounouchi to be calm, advising him to write something three times on his palm to relax himself. A wound-up Jounouchi tells Honda he's only making him more nervous, and smacks him.

Mistakes

  • After Joey destroys Pendulum Machine with "Garoozis", the "Flame Swordsman" card is seen on his field in defense mode instead of "Axe Raider".
