"Espa Roba - The ESP Duelist, Part 1", known as "Esper Roba - Terror of the Psychic Deck" in the Japanese version, is the fifty-eighth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! second series anime. It first aired in Japan on June 5, 2001 and in the US on January 25, 2003.

Summary

It is day two of the Battle City Tournament and Joey Wheeler is still looking for an opponent to fight his first Duel with.

Wanting to find a worthy opponent to defeat, he arrives just in time to watch Espa Roba, a Duelist claiming to have psychic powers, defeat Rex Raptor. As per the Battle City Rules, Rex had to give up his "Serpent Night Dragon" to Espa as it was his rarest card. Espa, knowing Joey was the runner-up in Duelist Kingdom, challenges him to a Duel and Joey accepts.

In the hospital, Tristan visits Serenity and brings a laptop with him, so he can watch the Duel online and tell Serenity how it is going. However, he has trouble figuring out how to make the computer work and has to get a nurse to help him.

The Duel does not start off very well for Joey, as he still does not know some of the Battle City rules (including Tributes) and is intimidated by Espa's psychic powers.

Yugi is watching the Duel from a rooftop and sees Espa's brothers spying on Joey's cards, revealing that Espa is indeed a cheater. Yugi decides to just watch and let the Duel take its course.

Joey eventually proves that cheating is going on by activating "Skull Dice" and "Graceful Dice" when Espa thought he had 2 "Graceful Dice".

At this point, Joey points out to Espa that due to how he held his cards, Espa knew he had two "Dice" cards, but he couldn't tell which ones. Joey then states this means that Espa is cheating and someone is telling him what cards are in his hand. Espa becomes shocked he figured that out. Rex realizes that Espa must have used the same cheating method on him too. Espa's brothers realize they're busted for sure. Yugi congratulates Joey on his efforts as he is now in control of the Duel.

Mokuba soon finds out about the cheating, dashes in and tackles the wicked accomplice up on the roof. He threatens to expel Espa from Battle City, but the brothers talk him out of it after telling him their sad story about being orphans and having no one but Espa to protect and care for them.

Mokuba, having been in a similar situation, is convinced to let the Duel continue as long as they stop cheating. He stands by to be sure they don't start doing it again.

Joey appears to have regained control of the duel, bringing Espa's Life Points down to 1440. However, Espa activates "Mind Control" to take control of Joey's "Swordsman of Landstar".

He then Tributes it to Summon "Jinzo", which makes all Trap Cards useless, putting Joey in a tight spot.

Featured Duels

Rex Raptor vs. Espa Roba

Most of the Duel is skipped.

Turn ?: Espa Roba
"Jinzo" attacks and destroys "Serpent Night Dragon" (Rex: 50 → 0 Life Points).

Joey Wheeler vs. Espa Roba, Part 1

Turn 1: Joey

(NOTE: In the real game, Giltia the D. Knight is a Fusion Monster).

Turn 2: Espa

Turn 3: Joey
Joey's hand contains from left to right: "Swordsman of Landstar", "Graceful Dice", "Skull Dice", "Battle Warrior", and "Flame Swordsman".

Turn 4: Espa

(NOTE: In the real game, as well as the English dub, "Skull Dice" is a Trap Card. In the real game, it reduces the ATK points of all of your opponent's monsters by the number rolled x 100). (NOTE: In the real game, "Graceful Dice" increases the ATK points of all your monsters by the number rolled x 100).

Both cards allow Joey to roll 1 die. Because the result of "Skull Dice's" roll is 5, its effect decreases "The Fiend Megacyber" ATK to 440 (The Fiend Megacyber ATK 2200 → 400). Because the result of "Graceful Dice's" roll is 3, its effect increases "Swordsman of Landstar's" ATK to 1500. (Swordsman of Landstar ATK 500 → 1500)

At this point, Joey points out that Espa Roba was cheating and Commissioner Mokuba catches Espa Roba's brothers helping him. They told him why they were doing this and after a little argument, Mokuba resumes the duel.

Turn 5: Joey

(NOTE: In the real game, "Mind Control" is a Normal Spell Card).

Turn 6: Espa

While Jinzo is on the field, its effect prevents the activation of Trap Cards and no Trap Cards can be Set either.

(NOTE: In the real game, "Jinzo" doesn't destroy Trap Cards, it just negates them while they are on the Field).

Duel continues next episode.

  • "Swordsman of Landstar" slicing "The Fiend Megacyber" in half is obscured in the dub.
