 +
[[Alexis Rhodes (manga)|Alexis]]' "[[Blizzard Princess (manga)|Blizzard Princess]]" and the "[[Ice Doll]]" copying its [[effect]] both [[attack]], with Alexis revealing that the effect of "Blizzard Princess" will [[negate]] all of the opponent's [[Spell Card|Spell]] and [[Trap Card]]s. [[Adrian Gecko (manga)|Adrian]]'s "[[Forbidden Beast Bronn]]" and "[[Forbidden Beast Dharmjul]]" are [[destroy]]ed and his and [[Jesse Anderson (manga)|Jesse's]] [[LP|Life Points]] drop to 0. [[Vellian Crowler (manga)|Dr. Crowler]] announces Alexis and [[Bastion Misawa (manga)|Bastion]] as the winners, as [[Jaden Yuki (manga)|Jaden]] and [[Syrus Truesdale (manga)|Syrus]] cheer. Jesse says that with an [[signature card|ace]] like "Blizzard Princess", he was unable to use the power of his [[face-down]] card, which he reveals was "[[Mirror Force (manga)|Mirror Force]]. However, he says that the result won't be the same when the singles matches come around, and tells Adrian that they should do their best. Adrian is beyond angry, stating that it doesn't matter - [[Tag-Team Duel|Tag Duel]] or not, he's lost. This decreases his chances of becoming a Pro Duelist. [[Principal MacKenzie]] has promised to recommend those that defeat the Japanese Duelists to the [[Pro League]]. He tells Jesse that they're nothing alike  and vows to become a better Pro Duelist than [[Aster Phoenix (manga)|Aster Phoenix]].
 +
 +
Aster is en route to [[Duel Academy]] via helicopter, with the pilot telling him they'll arrive in about thirty minutes. Aster muses that he didn't think he'd be Dueling academy students one day after participating in a Pro League tournament in Korea. He thinks that he couldn't turn Principal MacKenzie down though - despite being a pro, he is still technically a student at the American academy as well. He thinks he'll just have to enjoy himself as much as possible. Back at the Duel field, Jaden congratulates Alexis and Bastion, while Syrus teases Bastion, saying it's lucky Alexis was able to overcome Bastion's earlier mistake. Jaden states that Bastion got worked up due the presence of a certain person, and Bastion tells them to stop bringing it up. [[Zane Truesdale (manga)|Zane]] and [[Atticus Rhodes (manga)|Atticus]] discuss the Duel, with Atticus saying that they must do at least as well as they did - Alexis is his sister, after all. Atticus asks Zane what her partner's name was again, and Zane responds. Atticus says he can tell just by looking at him that he's got his eyes on Alexis and that as her older brother, he'll have to put a stop to that.
 +
 +
Crowler announces that the next Tag Duel will begin, and that since one of the Amercian students hasn't yet arrived, [[Axel Brodie (manga)|Axel]] and [[Jim Crocodile Cook (manga)|James]] will team by default. Their opponents will be picked at random from among the three remaining Japanese students via a lottery application on his [[wikipedia:Personal digital assistant|PDA]]. The selection is Syrus teaming with [[Chazz Princeton (manga)|Chazz]]. Jaden asks what that means for him, and Crowler replies that the "drop-out boy" will Duel the last American student in a  singles match once the latter arrives. The Duel begins, and James goes first. He [[Normal Summon]]s "[[Alli-Soldier]]" in [[Defense Position]] and [[Set]]s "[[Crocodile Scale]]". Syrus Normal Summons "[[Tankroid]]" in Defense Position and Sets a card himself. Syrus realizes that James is using [[Reptile]]-[[Type]] [[Monster Card|monsters]] and wonders what Axel will use. Axel Normal Summons "[[Electro Gunner (manga)|Electro Gunner]]" in [[Attack Position]] and Syrus realizes he must be using a [[Machine]] Deck. Axel [[activate]]s "[[Electronic Motor]]", which will increase the [[ATK]] of all Machine-Type monsters he [[control]]s by 300. Axel knows that "Alli-Soldier" has weak ATK and uses his [[Academia Disk]]'s function to check what James' [[face-down]] card is. Seeing it's "Crocodile Scale", he switches "Alli-Soldier" to Attack Position. "Electro Gunner" attacks and destroys "Tankroid", with Syrus activating his face-down "[[Support Mission]]", adding "[[Heliroid]]" from his Deck to his [[hand]]. The [[effect]] of "Tankroid" also activates, letting Syrus [[draw a card]], which ends up being "[[Missile Roid]]" Axel attacks [[Direct attack|directly]] with James' "Alli-Soldier", dealing 1200 damage to Chazz and Syrus. He Sets  card to end his turn.
 +
 +
James comments that it's about time that man with the [[Light and Darkness Dragon (character)|spirit]] card made an appearance as Chazz draws. James tells him to show them the skills that defeated [[David Rabb|David]]. Axel tells Chazz that he has things he must ask him about. Chazz draws "[[Burning Dragon (manga)|Burning Dragon]]", while his hand contains "[[Dragon's Scent]]", "[[Hurricane Dragon]]", "[[Immortal Dragon]]" and two other cards. With their side of the field bare and the opponent with two monsters, Chazz knows they're in a bind, as he has no [[Level]] 4 or lower monsters in his hand. He activates "Dragon's Scent", letting him Special Summon any [[Dragon]]-Type monster from his hand if the opponent has two or more monster. Thus "Burning Dragon" is Summoned. Jaden is impressed that Chazz Summoned a high-level Dragon so early. Its effect activates, destroying all Spell and Trap Cards on the field - "Electronic Motor", "Crocodile Scale" and Axel's Set card, causing James to curse. "Burning Dragon" attacks and destroys "Alli-Soldier", reducing James and Axel to 2700 Life Points. Jaden compliments Chazz's play and Syrus thinks that Chazz is definitely an amazing Duelist - but that he can't afford to lose any more than Chazz says. Chazz Sets "Immortal Dragon" and James draws "[[Dark Alligator]]", telling Chazz not to get cocky - the Duel has only just begun.

Summary[edit]

Alexis' "Blizzard Princess" and the "Ice Doll" copying its effect both attack, with Alexis revealing that the effect of "Blizzard Princess" will negate all of the opponent's Spell and Trap Cards. Adrian's "Forbidden Beast Bronn" and "Forbidden Beast Dharmjul" are destroyed and his and Jesse's Life Points drop to 0. Dr. Crowler announces Alexis and Bastion as the winners, as Jaden and Syrus cheer.

Errors[edit]

  • In the English version, the ATK of "Alli-Soldier" is shown as 1700 when it is first summoned. It is correctly shown as 1200 afterwards. Also, in a panel where its ATK and DEF are shown, "DEF" is mistakenly written "DER".
