Akiza and Yusei continue their Duel. Akiza smiles as she inflicts more damage to Yusei with "[[Rose Tentacles (anime)|Rose Tentacles]]". Yusei responds, saying that he was right, Akiza does enjoy inflicting pain. Slightly taken back, Akiza attacks him again. Yusei blocks with "[[Card Defense]]". As he begins his Turn, Yusei brings back the topic of Akiza enjoying inflicting pain. She tells him to quit saying that, that he's speaking nonsense.

Yusei slightly turns the tables with "[[Junk Warrior (anime)|Junk Warrior]]" on his turn. The crowd are pleased to see Yusei take the upper hand. But [[Luna]] is anxious. She notices that Yusei isn't just fighting, he's trying to do something for Akiza.

Akiza brings out "[[Black Rose Dragon (anime)|Black Rose Dragon]]" on her turn. Yusei's [[Mark of the Dragon]] lights up on his arm. She begins to lay onslaught on "Junk Warrior", but Yusei protects it and his [[Life PointsLP]] with "[[Shield Warrior (anime)|Shield Warrior]]" and "[[Spirit Force (anime)|Spirit Force]]". People begin to flee as the blast from "Black Rose Dragon" tears through the stand behind Yusei. The audience begins to hurl more abuse at Akiza, calling her a witch and telling her to scram.

Yusei Summons "[[Junk Synchron (anime)|Junk Synchron]]" and uses it to revive "[[Speed Warrior (anime)|Speed Warrior]]". [[Leo]] gets excited, seeing as this causes "[[Junk Warrior]]" to gain ATK. But Yusei [[Synchro Material|tunes ]] his "Junk" monsters to [[Synchro Summon]] "[[Stardust Dragon (anime)|Stardust Dragon]]". [[Yanagi Tenzen|Yanagi]] wonders if this could be Yusei's [[Five DragonsSigner Dragon|Signer dragon]]. Leo is confused as to why Yusei didn't keep "Junk Warrior" who was stronger, but Luna assures him that Yusei is trying something. The rest of the audience stare in awe at the magnificent dragon.

Yusei feels he can reach out to her. He orders "Stardust Dragon" to attack "Black Rose Dragon". He, Akiza, Luna and [[Jack Atlas|Jack]]'s arms all begin to throb as their birthmarks react. A few petals are scattered as "Black Rose Dragon" is destroyed. "All I can do is feel", Akiza thinks as she lifts her mask towards her face and puts it on. This stirs some reaction among the audience. Akiza really is a naughty girl, Divine [[Sayer]] jokes.

Akiza begins her turn and revives "Black Rose Dragon" with "[[Wicked Rebirth (anime)|Wicked Rebirth]]". She activates its effect, "Black Rose GailGale" to clear the field. The audience brace themselves. Seeing the danger they are in Yusei uses "Stardust Dragon's" effect, "Victim Sanctuary", Tributing "Stardust Dragon" to negate "Black Rose Dragon's" effect and destroy it. Jack comments that Yusei is the same as ever.

Akiza continues her turn. She Summons "[[Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis (anime)|Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis]]" as uses it to take out "Speed Warrior" and drop Yusei to his last 400 Life PointsLP. The effect of "Amaryllis'" effect tears small chunks of concrete from the arena. One of which springs back at Akiza's face, knocking a chunk off her mask. Both dragons and "Amaryllis" are revived at the end of her turn.

Yusei begins his turn and thinks up a plan for victory after discovering he has drawn "[[Cosmic Blast]]". He switches "Stardust Dragon" to [[Defense Position]] and equips it with "[[Prevention Star (anime)|Prevention Star]]". On this note, Akiza uses "[[Synchro Back (anime)|Synchro Back]]", returning "Black Rose Dragon" to her [[Extra Deck]], to be Special Summoned again next turn, allowing her to use its effect. Yusei ends his turn by setting 1 card.

"Hasn't the pain changed into a pain that those who bear the birthmark all share?" he asks. The mark is calling them, he suspects and for them to find the answer, they must think on their own. "Couldn't it be that the birthmark holds the answer?" Akiza responds to his words, asking what does a witch like her need to think about. As long as Divine Sayer shows her the way and loves her, she proceeds. Yusei won't have this. He interrupts, telling her that she needs to love herself. Akiza claims to be incapable of doing that. Annoyed, she yells that to Yusei and asks if he can see that she's suffering. Her hair clip falls out in her rage.

Akiza's hair falls into its familiar bangs as she activates "Black Rose Dragon's" effect once more. Yusei uses "Stardust Dragon's" effect once again Tributing it to negate the effect and destroy "Black Rose Dragon". Akiza notices the pain fade, but with "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" now freed from "Prevention Star", Akiza prepares to attack for victory. For trying to make her think, Akiza calls Yusei a wretched foe. Yusei asks her, "If that's true, then why are you crying?" Yusei plays "[[Cosmic Blast]]" inflicting damage equal to "Stardust Dragon's" ATK to Akiza. With that, the remainder of Akiza's mask falls apart.

[[File:Divine Sayer gives Aki Akiza his coat.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Sayer gives Akiza his coat.]]Yusei is astonished to see Akiza's eyes flooded with tears. She cries to Yusei to help herand crying by herself. The audience starts roaring at Akiza, telling her she got what she deserved. Sayer comes to Akiza's aid. He puts his coat over her shoulders and escorts her out, telling her she has done well.

The MC declares Yusei the winner. and Yusei stares at watches Akiza as she leaves while she thanks to him (in her mindthe dub, Akiza thanking Yusei for his help).

<u>'''Turn 12: Yusei'''</u><br />Yusei draws "Cosmic Blast". His hand contains "Prevention Star", "[[Give and Take (anime)|Give and Take]]", "[[Urgent Tuning (anime)|Urgent Tuning]]" and "Cosmic Blast". Yusei switches "Stardust Dragon" to [[Defense Position]]. He then activates "[[Prevention Star (anime)|Prevention Star]]", equipping it to "Stardust Dragon" and selecting "Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis" for its effect.

Akiza activates her face- Akiza down "[[Synchro Back (anime)|Synchro Back]]" to return "Black Rose Dragon" to her [[SetExtra Deck]]s 2 cardsand Special Summon it during her next Standby Phase. Yusei Sets a card ("Cosmic Blast").

<u>'''Turn 10: Yusei'''</u><br />==Trivia==- * Leo questions Yusei Normal Summons using "[[Junk Synchron]]Warrior" to summon "Stardust" as its ATK was higher. In fact, "Junk Barrage" was still active and (together with the Battle Damage) would have lowered Akiza's LP to 800, which revives would have prevented her from using "Wicked Rebirth" and limited her options. Also, Yusei could have still summoned "[[Speed Stardust" after attacking with "Junk Warrior]]" in [[Defense Position]]. This adds to Luna's comment that Yusei was trying to do something with it. As Yusei himself says, he was allowing Akiza to lash out so that he could take it and help her.

- He tunes "[[Junk Synchron]]" (Level 3) * When Yusei activated Stardust Dragon's special ability to "[[Junk Warrior]]" (Level 5) negate and destroy Black Rose Dragon's ability a second time, Stardust Dragon was hugging Black Rose Dragon to Synchro Summon "[[Stardust contain the destruction while Black Rose Dragon]]"was whipping it. This symbolised how Yusei is trying to help Akiza throughout the duel as she tried to push him away yet he continues to endure pain to help her. (Level 8)

<u>'''Turn 11: Akiza'''</u><br />- Akiza activates "[[Magic Planter]]" sending "[[Ivy Shackles]]" to * At the end of the Graveyard to draw 2 cardsJapanese version episode, Yusei had dialogue.

* In the original version, Akiza did not seem to be aware of the face- Akiza Normal Summons down card ("[[Phoenixian SeedCosmic Blast]]" ) Yusei had before he activated it. In the English version, she is aware of it at that point and Tributes asks him if it will be enough to Special Summon "[[Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis]]"prevent him from losing.

- She attacks and destroys * In the dub version, when Akiza tried to use the effect of "[[Speed Warrior]]" with "[[Phoenixian Cluster Amaryllis]]Black Rose Dragon"to destroy all cards on the field, whose effect destroys itself and inflicts 800 damage to she says that all of Yusei.

<u>'''Turn 12: * In the English version, when "[[Junk Warrior (anime)|Junk Warrior]]" attacked and destroyed "[[Rose Tentacles (anime)|Rose Tentacles]]" by battle, Yusei'''</u><br />- Yusei switches incorrectly said Akiza would lose [[LP]] (by the effect of "[[Stardust DragonJunk Barrage (anime)|Junk Barrage]]" to ) for each of her monster's [[Defense PositionATK]].

- Akiza activates "[[Synchro Back]]", returning * When "[[Black Rose Dragon (anime)|Black Rose Dragon]]" lowered the ATK of "Junk Warrior" to her [[Extra Deck]]0, it showed the LP meter.

- Yusei Sets 1 card. (* The first time Akiza mentions "[[Cosmic BlastWicked Rebirth (anime)|Wicked Rebirth]]"), she calls it "Dark Tuning". The next time, she calls it "Wicked Reborn".
