'''"Aster Duels Again...!!"''' , known as '''"Edo Battle, Battles Again...!!"''' in the Japanese version , is the fifty second chapter of the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (manga)|''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX'' manga]]. It was first printed in Japanese in the ''[[V Jump]]'' magazine and in English in the ''[[Shonen Jump]]'' magazine. Both of which were printed in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX - Volume 008|volume 8]] of the ''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX'' graphic novels afterwards.
==Summary==
[[Midori Hibiki|Midori]] comments that [[Jaden Yuki(manga)|Jaden]]'s debut [[Duel]] for his new "[[Masked HERO]]" [[Deck ]] did not go as well as he had planned. [[Chazz Princeton(manga)|Chazz]] believes that [[Aster Phoenix|Aster]] has strength similar to that of [[Zane Truesdale|Zane]]. Jaden appears upset, but quickly recovers, declaring that he won't lose next time. [[Bastion Misawa(manga)|Bastion]] remarks that even after a defeat, Jaden will always be Jaden. [[Vellian Crowler|Dr. Crowler]] announces the end of the competition for the day, and tells everyone that the pairings for the singles matches will be announced tomorrow.
Aster meets with [[Principal MacKenzie]], with the latter apologizes for interrupting Aster in the middle of this world tour. He tells Aster that he's doing well as a professional, after only being a pro for a year. Aster tells MacKenzie that he couldn't turn him down - it was MacKenzie that enabled Aster to become a pro in the first place. He's also still technically a student at the American academy. MacKenzie remarks that Aster thought that this would be function as a nice breather. Aster declares he has one more objective - [[Atticus Rhodes|The King]] and [[Zane Truesdale|The Kaiser]] are both at the academy. MacKenzie asks if Aster knows them, and he responds that he faced both of them many times in the World Junior Championships. Aster asks about [[David Rabb|David]]'s condition, having heard from [[Reggie MacKenzie|Reggie]] that he was unconscious. The Principal tells him to put it out of his mind.
Jaden is still a bit upset that he's the only [[Duel Academy]] student who lost today, not liking the fact that he's the only "black mark" on the record so far. [[Syrus Truesdale(manga)|Syrus]] tells him there was no helping it - he was facing a pro, after all. Bastion comments on how varied their American students' Decks were, and Syrus remarks that Reggie's and David's were similarly varied. Jaden recalls the students trying to get their hands on his spirit card, but puts the issue out of his mind and hopes that he and his friends will all win tomorrow.
Zane passes the [[Duel Academy video room]] and sees Atticus. He stops and asks why the latter hasn't returned to his dorm yet, with Atticus responding that he needs to finish up homework for Professor [[Sartyr]]'s class. Zane suggests he finish at the dorm, but Atticus opts to stay. Aster arrives at the Duel field, and remarks that as the original Duel Academy branch founded by [[Seto Kaiba]], the place is "duelist holy ground". He says that he had always wanted to visit this place. After Atticus finishes his homework, he begins to walk back to his dorm. Noticing that the door to the Duel field if open, he enters to see what's going on.
