Editing Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL - Episode 073

Yuma rises to his feet and Astral says that was expected of Kite, with Yuma responding that it wouldn't be interesting if that wasn't the case. He calls it a good "wall" for "[[kattobingu]]". Kite tells him that unfortunately for him, it's not a brittle wall, so Yuma won't be able to bear down on it. Yuma insists he will. He draws and activates "[[Card of Spell Containment]]"; in exchange for being unable to activate or Set [[Spell Card|Spell]] and [[Trap Card]]s this turn, he can draw two cards. Excited, he draws "[[Gagaga Clerk (anime)|Gagaga Clerk]]" and "[[Gagaga Caesar (anime)|Gagaga Caesar]]". He Normal Summons "Caesar" and reveals that if he controls another "[[Gagaga]]" monster, he can Special Summon "Clerk" from his hand via its own effect. He activates the effect of "Caesar". By [[banish]]ing a monster from his [[Graveyard]], he can change the Levels of all monsters he controls to that Level until the End Phase. He banishes the Level 4 "[[Ganbara Knight (anime)|Ganbara Knight]]", so the Levels of "Kaiser" and "Clerk" become 4.  

[[Bronk Stone|Bronk]] says there are two Level 4 monsters now, with [[Flip Turner|Flip]] adding that he has a chance now. [[Cathy Katherine|Cathy]] tells him "cattobingu" and [[Tori Meadows|Tori]] yells "Go, Yuma!". He overlays his two Level 4 monsters to Xyz Summon "[[Heroic Champion - Excalibur (anime)|Heroic Champion - Excalibur]]" in Attack Position. [[Nistro]] is excited that Yuma is using the card he gave to him and tells Yuma to use it to pack a punch. [[Dextra]] asks him whose side he's on (this scene is cut from the dub). Yuma attacks "Paladynamo" with "Excalibur". Both Flip and [[Caswell Francis|Caswell]] are puzzled, as the two monsters have the same ATK. Yuma activates the effect of "Excalibur", detaching all of its Overlay Units to double its ATK to 4000 until the End Phase. Kite is surprised and Yuma yells "[[attack name|Double Shock Sword Slash]]!" "Paladynamo" is cleaved in half and explodes, knocking Kite back. Dextra and [[Orbital 7]] both yell Kite's name as his Life Points fall to 200. He rises to his feet and reveals that when "Paladynamo" is destroyed, he can draw a card (Kite does not mention this effect in the dub; instead, he says that Yuma and Astral will have to do more than destroying "Paladynamo" if they want to win). Yuma ends his turn, the ATK of "Excalibur" returning to 2000.

Astral mutters Kite's name, while Flip and Caswell agree that was an amazing play (in the dub, Flip says that while Yuma may have ended his turn, he still has doubts on his winning chances). Cathy says her throat is burning (feeling the chills in the dub), but Tori says they are having fun - even Kite is enjoying himself. [[Hart Tenjo|Hart]] says his brother is smiling - he's happy, from the bottom of his heart. [[Dr. Faker]] wonders if [[Kazuma Tsukumo|Kazuma]]'s son will end up helping his own. Kite draws and activates "[[Galaxy Zero (anime)|Galaxy Zero]]", letting him Special Summon a "[[Galaxy-Eyes]]" monster from his Graveyard. Its effects will negated and it will be [[equip]]ped with "Galaxy Zero". He Special Summons "[[Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon (anime)|Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon]]". Yuma is excited to see "Galaxy-Eyes" and Kite adds that a monster equipped with "Galaxy Zero" will lose 800 ATK when is battles. Nistro mutters that it still has more ATK than "Exaclibur" then and Dextra yells "Go, Kite!" (in the dub, Nistro still believes that Yuma can gain the upper hand, with Dextra retorting with, "You wish!").  

"Galaxy-Eyes" attacks and destroys "Excalibur" with "[[attack name|Photon Stream of Destruction]]", reducing Yuma to 300 Life Points. As he hits the ground, Tori yells his name. With the battle over, the ATK of "Galaxy-Eyes" returns to normal. Kite Sets a card. Yuma backflips to his feet and says it's not over - he can still fight. Kite tells him to do as he wishes and Yuma draws. He activates "[[Gagagadraw (anime)|Gagagadraw]]", letting him banish three "Gagaga" monsters from his Graveyard to draw two cards. He banishes "Gagaga Caesar", "Gagaga Clerk" and "[[Gagaga Magician (anime)|Gagaga Magician]]", which shoot from the Graveyard as energy beams into Yuma's [[D-Pad]]. He activates "[[Xyz Revival]]", letting him Special Summon an Xyz Monster from his Graveyard and equip it with that card. Kite tells Yuma to show him all he has - he will crush it regardless. Yuma says that's what he was going to say (in the dub, Yuma asks Kite if he's scared, but Kite calls Yuma's play very predictable, with Yuma responding that he uses what works for him).

Yuma Special Summons "Utopia" with "Xyz Revival". Kite says it will fall short to "Galaxy-Eyes", but Yuma says they'll see about that. Yuma performs a [[Chaos Xyz Evolution]], overlaying "Utopia" to Xyz Summon "[[Number C39: Utopia Ray (anime)|Number C39: Utopia Ray]]" in Attack Position. Kite mutters "hope" (the ''[[OCG]]'' name of "Utopia" is "Hope") and tells Astral that he once told him he no longer has to be tied to his past. Astral says that's right and Kite says that his Duel was always a Duel of a vow. Yuma asks what he means and Kite says he Dueled to save Hart. Hart mutters "brother..." and Kite continues that from now on, he'll Duel for himself. Looking at "Utopia Ray", he says "wishes, hope". Yuma says that's right - the future belongs to them and they will decide it. Faker mutters Kite's name and Hart says he'll live the same way.  

[[File:ZEXAL episode 73 - Two Hopes.jpg|left|200px|thumb|"Utopia" and "[[Number C39: Utopia Ray (anime)|Utopia Ray]]".]] He declares a [[direct attack]] with "[[attack name|Ultimate Photon Stream of Destruction]]". Hart says that means his brother wins and Tori yells Yuma's name. Yuma activates another effect of "Dimension Gate", sending it to the Graveyard to Special Summon the banished monster, with its effect negated. Yuma tells "Utopia Ray" to revive. It bursts from the ground and Yuma says that its ATK is the same as that of "Neo Galaxy-Eyes - both monsters will be destroyed. Astral tells Yuma that now is the time. Yelling "kattobingu!", he activates his face-down "[[Xyz Double Back (anime)|Xyz Double Back]]" (in the dub, he yells "I am feelin' the flow" and a scene of Yuma drawing "Gagaga Clerk" and "Gagaga Caesar" was added before he activates "Xyz Double Back"). When an Xyz Monster is destroyed and he controls no other monsters, he can Special Summon the destroyed Xyz Monster and another monster with equal to or less ATK. "Utopia" and "Utopia Ray" both descend to the field as lightning strikes, appearing in Attack Position.  

Yuma's friends are all excited and Nistro wonders if its been decided now. Dextra says Kite's name again. Tori says its amazing to see "Utopia" and "Utopia Ray" side-by-side. Astral says that in the next turn, victory will be theirs. Lightning strikes Kite's field and both "Galaxy-Eyes" and "Neo Galaxy-Eyes" appear. Astral and Yuma can't believe it - a copy of "Xyz Double Back" is face-up on Kite's field. Yuma asks if he really had the same card as him and Orbital says Kite has done it now. He calls Yuma "Tonma" and says that "kattobingu" is no match for "kaitobingu". Kite congratulates Yuma and Astral for their Dueling skills, but adds that there can only be one winner. He orders "Galaxy-Eyes" and "Neo Galaxy-Eyes" to attack "Utopia" and "Utopia Ray" respectively, yelling "Photon Stream of Destruction" and "Ultimate Photon Stream of Destruction". Yuma's Life Points fall to zero.  

[[File:KiteHelpsYumaUp.png|left|200px|thumb|Kite offers Yuma his hand.]] Yuma mutters that it hurts to lose. Kite walks over to him and extends his hand, helping him to his feet. Yuma promises he'll beat Kite next time and Kite says he'll be Yuma's opponent as often as Yuma likes (in the dub, Kite says that he will take Yuma down again during their next Duel, but he must improve first). Yuma says that if he keeps working and doesn't give up, he can surpass Kite someday (in the dub, Yuma exclaims that he is the World Duel Carnival champion, and didn't remember seeing Kite in the finals, but he is already looking forward to their next Duel). Kite smiles as he walks away and departs on Orbital. Yuma's friends run to him and Yuma falls over into Tori's arms. She kneels down and everyone seems concerned until they hear him snoring. Hart thanks both his brother and Yuma and Faker smiles. Nistro and Dextra leave, with Nistro saying it was a good Duel, muttering "bye, Yuma." (in the dub, Nistro comments that Yuma improved significantly) On a walkway nearby, [[Reginald Kastle|Shark]] smiles, his chest heavily bandaged from his injuries. He mutters the names of both Yuma and Astral and leaves on his motorcycle (this scene was cut from the dub).

Tori can't believe Yuma is asleep. Caswell says that's typical of Yuma and Cathy says they should let him sleep on her lap instead of Tori's. Tori turns to Astral, asking him to do something, but Astral says not even he can wake Yuma up once he's asleep. Yuma continues to snore, muttering "kattobingu" between snores. Tori says if it can't be helped, they'll just let him be. Astral declares his twentieth observation: "It appears one can feel good about a loss as well" (in the dub, "Even in a Duel lost, can a friendship be found"). In the [[Barian World]], [[Seven Barian Emperors|four cloaked figures]] gather in room full of [[Baria Crystal]]s. [[Dumon|One of the figures]] says they didn't expect this of Yuma Tsukumo and Astral. His eyes glowing pink, he turns to the other three figures and says that they may have to intervene directly now.

Yuma activates the effect of "Gagaga Caesar" to [[banish]] "[[Ganbara Knight (anime)|Ganbara Knight]]" from his Graveyard and change the Level of all [[face-up]] "Gagaga" monsters he controls to that of the banished monster ("Gagaga Caesar": [[File:CG Star.svg|16px]] 3 → 4; "Gagaga Clerk": [[File:CG Star.svg|16px]] 2 → 4). Yuma overlays "Gagaga Caesar" and "Gagaga Clerk" in order to Xyz Summon "[[Heroic Champion - Excalibur (anime)|Heroic Champion - Excalibur]]" ([[File:Rank Star.svg|16px]]4/2000/2000, ORU: 2) in Attack Position.
