== The might of the "[[Ancient Dragon (DM anime)|Ancient Dragon]]". ==
 +
 +
* [[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]] soon reveals the target he was chasing with his combo of Cards: the powerful and mighty "[[Ancient Dragon (DM anime)|Ancient Dragon]]", which proves to be a tough opponent, given the [[Card effect|Effect]] of the [[Field Spell Card]] "[[Ancient City]]".
 +
 +
* Professor Hawkins explains that several Spell Cards and Monster Cards are needed to fulfill the [[Summoning Condition]]s of "[[Ancient Dragon (DM anime)|Ancient Dragon]]": both he and Solomon searched for them and got stuck: they were missing the "[[Ancient Key]]" [[Spell Card]]. However, Solomon went and finally managed to acquire it, to the Professor's delight: he's finally able to see the combo finished.
 +
 +
* Eventually, Joey manages a combo to get rid of "[[Ancient City]]" and wins the Duel. Apdnarg Otum "unveils" himself, taking Joey aback while the others sigh: it was obvious from the very beginning!
 +
 +
== Meanwhile... ==
 +
 +
* It also shown how [[Leon von Schroeder|Leon Wilson]] has won over [[Richard Goat]]. The medic collapses and both nurses have to evacuate him in a stretcher, to Leon's surprise. 
 +
 +
* Besides, everyone's comic relief duo, [[Weevil Underwood]] and [[Rex Raptor]] make it to Kaiba Land USA, having heard of the KC Grand Prix. They're ready to have their rematches on both Yugi & Joey.
 +
 +
==Featured Duel: Joey Wheeler vs. Apdnarg Otum==
 +
 +
''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 187|Duel continues from previous episode.]]''
 +
 +
Joey has 2200 Life Points remaining and controls no cards.
 +
 +
Apdnarg has 5000 Life Points remaining and controls "[[Ancient Giant]]" (2200/1100) and two "[[Stone Giant]]s" (400/2000) in Attack Position
 +
and "[[Ancient City]]", "[[Ancient Key]]", "[[The Legendary Gambler]]", and one set card.
 +
 +
<u>'''Turn 7: Joey'''</u><br />
 +
Joey draws "[[Goblin Attack Force (anime)|Goblin Attack Force]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it (2300/0) in Attack Position. "Goblin Attack Force" attacks Apdnarg Otum's "[[Ancient Giant]]", but Apdnarg Otum activates his face-down "[[Ordeal of a Traveler (anime)|Ordeal of a Traveler]]". Now when Joey attacks, Apdnarg can select a random Card from his hand and make Joey guess whether the random card is a [[Spell Card|Magic]], [[Trap Card|Trap]], or [[Monster Card]]. If Joey guesses wrong, his attacking monster is returned to his hand. Apdnarg selects the only card in his hand for the effect of "Ordeal of a Traveler" and Joey guesses [[Spell Card|Magic Card]] (Trap Card in the dub), but the chosen card is revealed to be a monster ("[[Sinister Serpent (anime)|Sinister Serpent]]"), so "Goblin Attack Force" is returned to Joey hand. Joey [[Set]]s a Card.
 +
 +
<u>'''Turn 8: Apdnarg'''</u><br />
 +
Apdnarg draws "Ancient Tome". "Ancient Giant" attacks directly, but Joey activates his face-down "[[Scapegoat (later anime)|Scapegoat]]" to [[Special Summon]] four "[[Sheep Token (anime)|Sheep Tokens]]" (0/0 for all) in [[Defense Position]]. A replay occurs and Apdnarg uses "Ancient Giant" to attack & destroy one "Sheep Token". Apdnarg Otum then activates "[[Ancient Tome]]". Now once during Apdnarg's Main Phase, he can swap a Card in his [[Hand]] with the top Card of his [[Main Deck|Deck]]. He must also send one card from his hand to the Graveyard during his Standby Phase, or "Ancient Tome" will be destroyed.
 +
 +
Apdnarg then activates the effect of "Ancient Tome" to swap the "Sinister Serpent" in his hand with the top card of his Deck. He then switches his two "[[Stone Giant]]s" (400/2000) to [[Defense Position]]. On Apdanarg's End Phase, the effects of both "Stone Giants" activate ([[Solomon Muto|Apdanrg Otum]] 5000 → 4500 → 4000).
 +
 +
<u>'''Turn 9: Joey'''</u><br />
 +
Joey draws "[[Roll of Fate]]". He then Normal Summons "Goblin Attack Force" (2300/0) in [[Attack Position]].
 +
 +
<u>'''Turn 10: Apdnarg'''</u><br />
 +
Apdnarg draws "Sinister Serpent". On Apdanrg's Standby Phase, he sends "Sinister Serpent" from his hand to the Graveyard to keep "Ancient Tome" in play. The effect of "Sinister Serpent" then activates, returning it from Apdnarg's [[Graveyard]] to his hand. Apdnarg then switches his two "Stone Giants" to [[Attack Position]]. He then activates the second effect of "Ancient Key" to send it and his two "Stone Giants" to the Graveyard in order to add "Ancient Gate" from his Deck to his hand. Apdnarg then activates "[[Ancient Gate]]".
 +
 +
Apdnarg then activates the first effect of "Ancient City" to send "Ancient Gate", "Ancient Giant" and "Ancient Tome" to the Graveyard and [[Special Summon]] "[[Ancient Dragon (DM anime)|Ancient Dragon]]" (2800/2100) in [[Attack Position]]. "Ancient Dragon" attacks & destroys Joey's "Goblin Attack Force" ([[Joey]] 2200 → 1700). Since "Ancient Dragon" destroyed a monster in battle, its effect activates, destroying all of Joey's [[Defense Position]] Monsters.
 +
 +
<u>'''Turn 11: Joey'''</u><br />
 +
Joey draws "Gilford the Lightning". He then activates "Roll of Fate" to roll a die. Depending on the result, Joey must draw the same number of Cards as the result of the roll from his Deck, then he must send that same number of Cards from the top of his [[Deck]] to his [[Graveyard]]. Apdnarg then activates the effect of "[[The Legendary Gambler]]" to roll a die of his own. Joey's "Roll of Fate" roll is a 4 while Apdnarg Otum's "The Legendary Gambler" roll is a 3, so the effect of "Roll of Fate" continues. Joey draws four cards and sends the top four cards of his [[Main Deck|Deck]] to the [[Graveyard]].
 +
 +
Joey then activates "[[Landstar Forces]]" to Special Summon "[[Brigadier of Landstar]]" (900/1200), "[[Knight of Landstar]]" (1000/900) and "[[Grappler of Landstar]]" (1000/500) from his hand in Attack Position. Joey then Tributes "Brigadier of Landstar", "Knight of Landstar" and "Grappler of Landstar" in order to Tribute Summon "[[Gilford the Lightning (anime)|Gilford the Lightning]]" (2800/1400) in Attack Position. Since "Gilford the Lightning" was Tribute Summoned by Tributing three monsters, its effect activates, destroying all of Apdanarg's monsters.
 +
 +
"Gilford the Lightning" attacks directly. The effect of Apdanarg's "Ordeal of a Traveler" activates, forcing Joey to guess the type of one card in Apdnarg's hand. Joey guesses Monster (it was the "Sinister Serpent" which returned to Solomon's hand previously). He is correct, so the direct attack continues ([[Solomon Muto|Apdanarg Otum]] 4000 → 1200). On Joey's End Phase, Apdanarg Otum activates the second effect of "Ancient City" to revive "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) from in Attack Position.
 +
 +
<u>'''Turn 12: Apdnarg'''</u><br />
 +
Apdnarg draws. "Ancient Dragon" attacks Joey's "Gilford the Lightning". Both monsters are destroyed in a [[Suicide|Double KO]]. On Apdnarg's End Phase, he activates the second effect of "Ancient City" to revive "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) in Attack Position.
 +
 +
<u>'''Turn 13: Joey'''</u><br />
 +
Joey draws "[[Pot of Greed (anime)|Pot of Greed]]" and subsequently activates it to draw two cards ("[[Giant Trunade (anime)|Giant Trunade]]" and "[[Premature Burial (anime)|Premature Burial]]"). Joey's hand is shown to contain "[[Jinzo (anime)|Jinzo]]", "[[Polymerization (anime)|Polymerization]]", and "[[Alligator's Sword (anime)|Alligator's Sword]]". Joey then activates "Premature Burial" to pay 800 Life Points ([[Joey]] 1700 → 900) and revive "Goblin Attack Force" (2300/0) in [[Attack Position]]. Joey then activates "Giant Trunade" to return all [[Spell Card|Magic]] and [[Trap Card]]s to their owner's [[Hand]]s; "The Legendary Gambler", "Ordeal of a Traveler", and "Ancient City" are returned to Apdanarg Otum's hand while "Premature Burial" is returned to Joey's [[Hand]].
 +
 +
Joey then activates "Premature Burial" again ([[Joey]] 900 → 100) to revive "Gilford the Lightning" (2800/1400) in [[Attack Position]]. "Gilford the Lightning" attacks Apdnarg Otum's "Ancient Dragon". Both monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. "Goblin Attack Force" attacks directly ([[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]] 1200 → 0).

==Differences in adaptations==
 +
[[File:Joeyhand187.png|thumb|right|150px|"[[Brigadier of Landstar]]" in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 187|episode 187]].]]
 +
* In the previous episode, "Brigadier of Landstar" was seen in Joey's [[hand]]. However, this card was not seen nor does it appear in his hand instead "[[Alligator's Sword (anime)|Alligator's Sword]]" a card that he didn't used was seen. This meant "Swordsman of Landstar" was suppose to be "Alligator's Sword".
 +
 +
* The gun of "[[Brigadier of Landstar]]" is edited to look less realistic. "[[Landstar Forces]]" has Brigadier's gun edited as well.
 +
 +
* In "[[Premature Burial (anime)|Premature Burial]]", the cross is blurred and made less visible, to avoid any religious connotation.
 +
 +
* "[[Ancient Tome]]" was given a different artwork.
  
 
== Notes ==
 
== Notes ==
* One by one, participants of the KC Grand Prix are randomly drawn to face one another in the Round of 16 (called Round 1):
+
* This episode shows how far Joey has come when devising his strategies.
 +
** However, he overlooked a more simple plan: as Apnarg only had 1200 LP left, he could have summoned Alligator's Sword (1500 ATK) and then played Premature Burial to bring back Gilford. . Then the formula for Joey's victory would follow the same route as what he actually did.
 +
 
 +
==Mistakes==
 +
* When Apnarg redraws "[[Sinister Serpent (anime)|Sinister Serpent]]", after having switched it with the top card of his deck with "[[Ancient Tome]]" the previous turn, he is shown putting the drawn card into his hand and discarding the Sinister Serpent already in his hand for Ancient Tome's cost.

==Summary==
|-
+
The group come out of the [[Jungle Zone]] and [[Mokuba Kaiba|Mokuba]] spots [[Rebecca Hawkins]] and [[Vivian Wong]] getting ready for their B Block Duel in the "Blue-Eyes Train Station". [[Solomon Muto|Solomon]] is thrilled and suggests going to cheer. [[Tristan Taylor|Tristan]] jokingly asks who he's gonna cheer for, so he quickly announces he'll cheer Rebecca to please [[Arthur Hawkins|Professor Hawkins]]. Suddenly, his spine creaks and he collapses: he's thrown out his back. Mokuba quickly calls for a medic while Solomon tells [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] and his friends to go on ahead.

== Opening Ceremony ==
+
Meanwhile, [[Fortune Salim]] is heading towards the restrooms and [[Weevil Underwood]] along with [[Rex Raptor]] decide to intercept him: they rush inside, knock him out, take off his tunic, and lock him in the closet after tying up and gagging him.
  
* The next day's morning, excitement fills 'Kaiba Land America' as the KC Grand Prix begins.  
+
Rebecca and Vivian begin their Duel after some initial tension. Yugi and his friends come to cheer and Vivian goes crazy upon spotting him. [[Téa Gardner|Téa]] encourages Rebecca to beat Vivian.
  
* Mokuba appears on the central podium of the stage and makes the opening speech by explaining the rules: all 16 Duelists will be split in Block A and B respectively. He reminds the public that the winner will have the honor of having a Duel with the winner of the [[Battle City]] tournament and "Duel King": [[Yugi Muto]].  
+
From the control center inside of "Blue-Eyes Dome", [[Seto Kaiba|Kaiba]] monitors all Duels; all's too quiet for his taste. He was expecting the hacker to make some more noise or signal its presence in a more open manner. He suddenly realizes that he could be among the Duelists, so he orders a checking of all of the Duelists' backgrounds: he's sure to catch the "mouse" like this.  
  
* The 1st A Block Duel is announced: Joey will be facing "Apdnarg Otum". Joey claims that he'll win and expose his 'true identity', making his friends sigh: isn't it obvious enough?
+
The two girls' Duel continues: the lead switches in a quick manner, but Rebecca's combo of [[Life Points]] recovery and [[effect damage|burn damage]] manages to wear her down. [[Duke Devlin]] comments upon Vivian being called the "Duel Queen" for her all-out victory in the [[Asia Tournament]]. Obviously, Kaiba wouldn't choose just anyone to participate in the [[KC Grand Prix]]. However, Rebecca manages to win in the end thanks to her combo skills.
  
* The 1st B Block Duel is also announced: Leon Wilson will be facing Dr. Richard Goat.  
+
In the meanwhile, [[Paul McGregor]] defeats another of the contestants, [[Shane Jordan]], in the A Block Round 1 Duel. Another Duel in the A Block is about to start: [[Zigfried von Schroeder|Zigfried Lloyd]] VS [[Fortune Salim]]. On the way to the Duel spot, Weevil and Rex (who have assumed his identity) trip down a flight of stairs and are exposed. Mokuba demands to know what happened to the real Salim and Weevil improvises that he's not feeling well and asked for them to replace him. Mokuba obviously doesn't buy it and announces that, since they're not registered, this Duel will be invalidated and Zigfried will automatically win. At that moment, Zigfried announces that he doesn't mind having a Duel with them: they'll be just an entertainment but far more worth than winning in an automatic manner. This made the two mad, and they agree to a tag team against him. Zigfrieg glances at a nearby CCTV camera and thinks that he'll show Kaiba a bit of my "true power".  
  
* The second set of Duels will be announced after each Block's 1st Duels are over. (Above list is compiled via the information given in the following Episodes.)
+
Both Rex and Weevil managed to Summon high-[[Level]] [[Effect Monster]]s in just 1 turn. Zigfried [[draw a card|draws]] and [[activate]]s a [[Spell Card|Magic Card]]: "[[Ride of the Valkyries (anime)|Ride of the Valkyries]]". Due to its effect, he Special Summons four "[[Valkyrie]]" monsters and, in just 1 turn, defeats both enemy monsters and wipes out Weevil and Rex's Life Points. Even Kaiba is taken aback by it. Yugi suspects that he'll be a very difficult opponent indeed.
  
* Mokuba tells Yugi to climb into the stage and greet the public. Rather nervous, he does so in a rather shy manner.  
+
==Featured Duels==
 +
===Featured Duel #1: Rebecca Hawkins vs. Vivian Wong===
 +
<u>'''Turn 1: Vivian'''</u><br />
 +
Vivian draws "[[Kung Fu Nyan Nyan]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1700/1000) in [[Attack Position]].
  
* At that moment, the [[Blue-Eyes White Dragon jet]] appears and Kaiba makes his grand entrance using a jet pack, no less. Zigfried Lloyd directs a suspicious glance at him: it's obvious that he's still plotting something.
+
<u>'''Turn 2: Rebecca'''</u><br />
 +
Rebecca draws "[[Graceful Charity (anime)|Graceful Charity]]" and subsequently activates it to [[Draw a Card|draw]] three cards and discard two ("[[Cure Mermaid (anime)|Cure Mermaid]]" and "[[Marie the Fallen One (anime)|Marie the Fallen One]]"). The remaining cards in Rebecca's hand are "Gravity Bind", "Scapegoat", "Injection Fairy Lily", "Silent Doom", "Fire Princess", and "Imperial Order". Rebecca then Normal Summons "[[Fire Princess (anime)|Fire Princess]]" (1300/1500) in [[Attack Position]] and Sets two Cards.
  
* Kaiba takes the microphone from Mokuba and begins a short speech:
+
<u>'''Turn 3: Vivian'''</u><br />
 +
Vivian draws. On Vivian's Standby Phase the effect of "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" activates, increasing its ATK by 300 ("Kung Fu Nyan Nyan": 1700 → 2000/1000). Vivian then Normal Summons "[[Master Kyonshee (anime)|Master Kyonshee]]" (1750/1000) in [[Attack Position]]. "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" attacks Rebecca's "Fire Princess", but Rebecca activates her face-down "[[Gravity Bind (anime)|Gravity Bind]]". Now all [[Level]] four or higher monsters cannot attack; the attack made by "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" is nullified.
  
:'''[[Seto Kaiba]]:''' "''Comrades! This ain't a festival and it ain't a show! It's a survival game in which Duelists stake their pride! You'll be their witnesses to them: you shall hear their death agonies and just one voice of joy! Chosen Duelists! Right now, my Kaiba Land has become a Colosseum! Glory! Defeat! You'll have to win in order to survive! Show me who'll be the survivor!''"
+
<u>'''Turn 4: Rebecca'''</u><br />
 +
Rebecca draws. On Rebecca's Standby Phase, the effect of "Marie the Fallen One" activates, increasing Rebecca's Life Points by 200 ([[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] 4000 → 4200). Since Rebecca gained Life Points, the effect of "Fire Princess" activates, inflicting 500 damage to Vivian ([[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] 4000 → 3500). Rebecca Sets a Card.
  
* He inwardly wonders where the "rats" hiding at: He won't allow them to ruin as they like this competition.
+
<u>'''Turn 5: Vivian'''</u><br />
 +
Vivian draws "[[Mystical Space Typhoon (anime)|Mystical Space Typhoon]]" and subsequently activates it to destroy Rebecca's "Gravity Bind", but Rebecca activates her face-down "[[Imperial Order (anime)|Imperial Order]]". Now the effects of all [[Spell Cards]] are negated. Rebecca must also pay 700 Life Points during each of her Standby Phases or "Imperial Order" will be destroyed. Rebecca then chains her face-down "[[Scapegoat (later anime)|Scapegoat]]" to the activation of "Imperial Order", letting Rebecca [[Special Summon]] four "[[Sheep Token (anime)|Sheep Tokens]]" (0/0 for all) in [[Defense Position]].  
  
== Each One's Opponents ==
+
Vivian Normal Summons "[[Gyaku-Gire Panda (anime)|Gyaku-Gire Panda]]" (800/1600) in [[Attack Position]]. Due to the effect of "Gyaku-Gire Panda", it gains 500 ATK for every Monster on Rebecca's side of the Field. Rebecca currently has five ("Gyaku-Gire Panda": 800 → 3300/1600). "Gyaku-Gire Panda" attacks & destroys one of Rebecca's "Sheep Tokens". "Gyaku-Gire Panda" then inflicts piercing damage to Rebecca ([[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] 4200 → 900) ("Gyaku-Gire Panda": 3300 → 2800/1600).
  
* The Duelists head over to their assigned spaces. However, Joey went off to get a hot dog and didn't listen to the announcement! He and the others run off across the 'Jungle' stage, dodging a bunch of crocodiles, traps, bats, snakes and even a boulder running down a hill! (It's a reference to the [[Duelist Kingdom (arc)]]). The 'boulder' turns out to be just a "Solid Vision".  
+
<u>'''Turn 6: Rebecca'''</u><br />
 +
Rebecca draws. On Rebecca's Standby Phase, she chooses not to pay the [[Maintenance Cost]] for "Imperial Order", which destroys it. The effect of "Marie the Fallen One" then activates ([[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] 900 → 1100). The effect of "Fire Princess" then activates ([[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] 3500 → 3000). Rebecca then activates "[[Token Thanksgiving (anime)|Token Thanksgiving]]" to destroy all Tokens on the field and increase her Life Points by 800 for each Token destroyed ([[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] 1100 → 3500) ("Gyaku-Gire Panda": 2800 → 1300/1600). The effect of "Fire Princess" activates ([[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] 3000 → 2500).  
  
* Joey gets there just in time to not be disqualified and Mokuba scolds him: hadn't he run off, he'd shown him a shortcut for the staff!
+
Rebecca then Normal Summons "[[Injection Fairy Lily (anime)|Injection Fairy Lily]]" (400/1500) in [[Attack Position]] ("Gyaku-Gire Panda": 1300 → 1800/1600). "Injection Fairy Lily" attacks "Gyaku-Gire Panda". Rebecca then activates the effect of "Injection Fairy Lily" to pay 2000 Life Points ([[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] 3500 → 1500) and increase the ATK of "Injection Fairy Lily" by 3000 ("[[Injection Fairy Lily (anime)|Injection Fairy Lily]]": 400 → 3400/1500) during damage calculation. "Injection Fairy Lily" destroys Vivian's "Gyaku-Gire Panda" ([[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] 2500 → 900). After damage calculation, the effect of "Injection Fairy Lily" expires ("Injection Fairy Lily": 3400 → 400/1500).
  
* Apdnarg Otum tells Joey he's pleased that his "disciple" has made it on time. He suddenly corrects himself, like if he was about to make a slip.
+
<u>'''Turn 7: Vivian'''</u><br />
 +
Vivian draws "[[Luminous Clouds]]" and subsequently activates it to Tribute her "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" and "Master Kyonshee" and [[Special Summon]] "[[Dragon Lady]]" (2500/2100) in [[Attack Position]]. Vivian then activates the effect of "Dragon Lady" to destroy Rebecca's "Gravity Bind", however "Dragon Lady" can't attack this turn. Vivian then activates "[[Mystic Eruption]]" to inflict 1000 damage to Rebecca since one of her cards was destroyed this turn ([[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] 1500 → 500).
  
* Meanwhile, [[Leon von Schroeder|Leon Wilson]] is going to Duel [[Richard Goat]]. His two assistant nurses hand him the Deck and wipe off the sweat. He then tells Leon that "I shall not use anesthesia for this operation". Leon is rather perplexed by his behavior, but they Duel.
+
<u>'''Turn 8: Rebecca'''</u><br />
 +
Rebecca draws "Guardian Angel Joan". On Rebecca's Standby Phase, the effect of "Marie the Fallen One" activates ([[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] 500 → 700). The effect of "Fire Princess" then activates ([[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] 900 → 400). Rebecca then Tributes "Fire Princess" and "Injection Fairy Lily" in order to Tribute Summon "[[Guardian Angel Joan (anime)|Guardian Angel Joan]]" (2800/2000) in Attack Position. Rebecca then activates "[[Silent Doom (anime)|Silent Doom]]" to revive "[[Fire Princess (anime)|Fire Princess]]" (1300/1500) in [[Defense Position]].  
  
(This Duel and many others are not shown onscreen for the sake of brevity of this mini-arc).
+
Vivian's hand is shown to contain "[[Soul Tiger (anime)|Soul Tiger]]", "[[Inpachi (anime)|Inpachi]]", and "[[Thunder Nyan Nyan (anime)|Thunder Nyan Nyan]]". "Guardian Angel Joan" attacks & destroys Vivian's "Dragon Lady" ([[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] 400 → 100). Since "Guardian Angel Joan" destroyed a monster by battle and sent it to the Graveyard, its effect activates, increasing Rebecca's Life Points by the [[ATK]] of "Dragon Lady" ([[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] 700 → 3200). The effect of "Fire Princess" then activates ([[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] 100 → 0).
  
== "Ancient" - Themed Deck ==

===Featured Duel #2: Weevil Underwood & Rex Raptor vs. Zigfried Lloyd===
 +
<u>'''Turn 1: Weevil'''</u><br />
 +
Weevil draws "[[Pinch Hopper (anime)|Pinch Hopper]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1000/1200) in [[Attack Position]]. He then activates "[[Eradicating Aerosol (anime)|Eradicating Aerosol]]" to destroy "Pinch Hopper". Since "Pinch Hopper" was sent from the field to the Graveyard, its effect activates, allowing Weevil to Special Summon "[[Insect Queen (anime)|Insect Queen]]" (2200/2400) from his [[Hand]] in [[Attack Position]]. Due to the effect of "Insect Queen", it gains 200 ATK for each Insect-type monster on the field. There is currently one ("Insect Queen": 2200 → 2400/2400)
  
* Professor Hawkins catches up with them. He guessed they've realized it, too. He admits that he knew the fact that Solomon was going to join the KC Grand Prix. Back when [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 185|the unidentified phone call]], it turned out that it was Solomon, who was bored of staying home and doing nothing.
+
<u>'''Turn 2: Rex'''</u><br />
 +
Rex draws. He then Normal Summons "[[Balloon Lizard (anime)|Balloon Lizard]]" (500/1900) in [[Attack Position]]. Rex then activates "[[Ultra Evolution Pill (anime)|Ultra Evolution]]" to Tribute "Balloon Lizard" and Special Summon "[[Black Tyranno (anime)|Black Tyranno]]" (2600/1800) from his [[hand]] in [[Attack Position]].
  
* Everyone wonders what kind of Duel it'll be: Yugi affirms that his grandpa is very strong and Mokuba questions the fact. He admits that Solomon requested to be included. Since he told Mokuba that he was the one who taught all about Duel Monsters to Yugi, so Mokuba thought it'd be alright.  
+
<u>'''Turn 3: Zigfried'''</u><br />
 +
Zigfried draws "[[Ride of the Valkyries (anime)|Ride of the Valkyries]]" and subsequently activates it, Special Summoning two "[[Valkyrie Zweite (anime)|Valkyrie Zweite]]" (1600/1600) and two "[[Valkyrie Erste (anime)|Valkyrie Erste]]" (1600/1800) from his hand in [[Attack Position]]. The effects of both "Valkyrie Zweite" activate, destroying Rex's "Black Tyranno" and Weevil's "Insect Queen".  
  
* The Duel begins. Solomon plays an "Ancient" - Themed Deck with many curious and Rare Cards. He has various manners of dealing with Joey's "Luck" Cards and quickly making a curious combination of Cards.  
+
Zigfried then activates the effect of the first "Valkyrie Erste", removing from play the "Black Tyranno" in Rex's [[Graveyard]] and making the ATK of "Valkyrie Erste" equal to the ATK of "Black Tyranno" until the End Phase ("Valkyrie Erste": 1600 → 2600/1800).  
  
* However, Yugi and Yami Yugi suspect that he's aiming at something: what could it be? The Episode ends.  
+
Zigfried then activates the effect of the second "Valkyrie Erste", removing from the play the "Insect Queen" in Weevil's [[Graveyard]] and making the ATK of "Valkyrie Erste" equal to the ATK of "Insect Queen" until the End Phase ("Valkyrie Erste": 1600 → 2400/1800).
  
==Featured Duel: Joey Wheeler vs. Apdnarg Otum==
+
One "Valkyrie Erste" and one "Valkyrie Zweite" attack Weevil directly (Weevil 4000 → 1600 → 0) The other "Valkyrie Erste" and "Valkyrie Zweite" attack Rex directly (Rex 4000 → 1400 → 0).
 +
 
 +
====Notes====
 +
* The original ATK of "Insect Queen" appears to have been mistakenly interpreted as 2400 while in the Graveyard, as opposed to its actual original ATK of 2200. Only on the field does it have 2400 ATK, where its effect allows it to gain 200 ATK for each Insect-Type monster on the field including itself. Had the copy of "Valkyrie Erste" that removed from play "Insect Queen" obtained 2200 ATK instead of 2400, Weevil should have been left with 200 LP instead of 0.
 +
** An alternate possibility is that the original ATK of "Insect Queen" was interpreted correctly, but the separate Life Point counters of Weevil and Rex were not. The combined ATK of Zigfried's four monsters would have been 8000, which may have been used as a justification to drop both Weevil's and Rex's LP from 4000 to 0; however, there is no way to split the four ATK values of 1600, 1600, 2200, and 2600 to individually deal 4000 damage to both Weevil and Rex (unless the 2200 is misinterpreted as 2400 as explained above).
 +
 
 +
* For dramatic effect and surprise, Zigfried is shown to execute all of his moves at the same time, with "Ride of the Valkyries" surrounding his opponents' entire field in a great cloud of rose petals before abruptly clearing to show Weevil and Rex's Life Points both at 0.
 +
** For even greater dramatic effect, in the original Japanese episode when Zigfried activates "[[Ride of the Valkyries (anime)|Ride of the Valkyries]]", Richard Wagner's composition ''[[wikipedia:Ride of the Valkyries|Walkürenritt]]'' is used as the background music.
 +
 
 +
* As this is technically a [[Tag Duel]], none of the three participants should have been able to attack on their first turn, including Zigfried. This may be explained by the fact that the original Duel was intended to be a standard 1-on-1 Duel with [[Fortune Salim]], allowing those rules to apply instead of the rules of a Tag Duel.
 +
 
 +
== Differences In Adaptations==
 +
* The hypodermic needle belonging to "[[Injection Fairy Lily (anime)|Injection Fairy Lily]]" is changed to a rocket in the US version.
  
<u>'''Turn 1: Joey'''</u><br />
+
* Cut from the US version is a shot of [[Rebecca Hawkins|Rebecca]] making rude gestures at [[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] after she wins.
Joey draws "[[Swordsman of Landstar (anime)|Swordsman of Landstar]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it (500/1200) in [[Attack Position]]. He then [[Set]]s two Cards.
 
  
<u>'''Turn 2: Apdnarg'''</u><br />
+
* The kanji is removed from the veil of "[[Master Kyonshee (anime)|Master Kyonshee]]" in the US version. It means "spell" or "curse".
Apdnarg draws. He then [[Set]]s two Cards and [[Normal Summon]]s "[[Wandering Mummy (anime)|Wandering Mummy]]" (1500/1500) in [[Attack Position]].
 
  
<u>'''Turn 3: Joey'''</u><br />
+
* Vivian is given shorts to wear under her slit skirt in the US version.
Joey draws. He then Normal Summons "[[Tiny Guardian (later anime)|Little-Winguard]]" (1400/1800) in [[Attack Position]]. "Swordsman of Landstar" attacks [[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]]'s "Wandering Mummy". Joey activates his face-down "[[Graceful Dice (anime)|Graceful Dice]]" to roll a die and multiply the [[ATK]] of "Swordsman of Landstar" by the die result. [[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]], in response, [[activate]]s his face-down "[[The Legendary Gambler]]" to roll a die too. If Apdnarg's roll is higher than [[Joey]]'s, the effect that required Joey to roll a die will be negated. Joey's "Graceful Dice" roll is a four while [[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]]'s "The Legendary Gambler" roll is a six, so the effect of "Graceful Dice" is negated.  
 
  
Joey then activates his face-down "[[Skull Dice (anime)|Skull Dice]]" to roll a die and divide the [[ATK]] of [[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]]'s "Wandering Mummy" by the die result. Apdnarg then activates the effect of "The Legendary Gambler" to roll a die of his own. [[Joey]]'s "Skull Dice" roll is a five while [[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]]'s "The Legendary Gambler" roll is a six, so the effect of "Skull Dice" is negated. "Wandering Mummy" destroys "Swordsman of Landstar" (Joey 4000 → 3000). Joey then activates the effect of "Little-Winguard" to switch it to [[Defense Position]].
+
* Cut from the US version is where [[Solomon Muto|Grandpa Muto]] blows steam from his nose and his eyes turning into pink hearts over how beautiful Vivian Wong is.
 +
** In the dub, he is only excited about seeing another duel.  
  
<u>'''Turn 4: Apdnarg'''</u><br />
+
* Cut from the US version are shots of [[Vivian Wong|Vivian]] saying she wishes her rival were [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] or [[Seto Kaiba|Kaiba]]. She could use her beautiful skills to make them her captives of love, and together they'd be the strongest dueling couple in the world.
Apdnarg draws. On Apdnarg's Standby Phase, he activates his face-down "[[Non Aggression Area (anime)|Non Aggression Area]]" to discard a card and prevent [[Joey]] from [[Normal Summon]]ing or [[Special Summon]]ing any [[Monster]]s during his next turn. Apdnarg then activates "[[Mirage of Nightmare (anime)|Mirage of Nightmare]]". Now during each of [[Joey]]'s Standby Phases, [[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]] can [[draw a card|draw]] until he has four cards in his [[Hand]], but each time it is Apdnarg's Standby Phase, he must randomly [[Discard]] the same number of Cards he drew via the effect of "Mirage of Nightmare". Apdnarg then [[Set]]s a Card.
 
  
<u>'''Turn 5: Joey'''</u><br />
+
* The artwork of "[[Ultra Evolution Pill (anime)|Ultra Evolution]]" has been altered to remove the pill.
Joey draws. On Joey's Standby Phase, the effect of Apdnarg's "Mirage of Nightmare" activates, allowing Apdnarg to draws three cards. [[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]] then activates his face-down "[[Emergency Provisions (anime)|Emergency Provisions]]" to send "Mirage of Nightmare" to the Graveyard and gain 1000 Life Points ([[Solomon Muto|Apdnarg Otum]] 4000 → 5000). Joey's hand contains "Swordsman of Landstar", "[[Scapegoat (later anime)|Scapegoat]]", "[[Brigadier of Landstar]]", and "[[Jinzo (anime)|Jinzo]]".
 
  
<u>'''Turn 6: Apdnarg'''</u><br />
+
* In the original, Yugi explains to his friends how chaining works and uses what occurred in Rebecca and Vivian's Duel as part of the explanation. Much of the explanation, with the cards superimposed over him, is removed from the dub.
Apdnarg draws. He then activates "[[Ancient City]]". This card's [[effect]]s will be revealed later in the [[Duel]]. Apdnarg then [[Tribute]]s "Wandering Mummy" in order to [[Tribute Summon]] "[[Ancient Giant]]" (2200/1100) in [[Attack Position]]. While this monster is face-up on the field, Apdnarg must attack with it. If he doesn't, then he will take 300 damage during his End Phase.  
 
  
Apdnarg then [[activate]]s "[[Ancient Key]]" in order to [[Special Summon]] two "[[Stone Giant]]s" (400/2000) in Attack Position. While these monsters are face-up on the field, Apdnarg must attack with them. If he doesn't, then he will take 500 damage for each "Stone Giant" that didn't attack during the End Phase. "Ancient Giant" [[attack]]s and [[destroy]]s [[Joey]]'s "Little-Winguard". The two "Stone Giants" attack directly (Joey 3000 → 2600 → 2200). Apdnarg then [[Set]]s a card.
+
* In the dub, instead of being simply for entertainment and not wanting to win by default, Ziegfried convinces Mokuba to let him duel Weevil and Rex because his suit makes him look too good to win by default, as well as not wanting to disappoint the public.
  
''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 188|Duel concludes next episode.]]''
+
* In the original version, this takes place in America after Dartz's defeat, so Rex and Weevil have been searching for a way to get back home. In the dub, Rex blundered in directions on how to get to Kaibaland to take place in the KC Grand Championship.
  
==Differences In Adaptations==
+
==Errors==
* In the dub, the skywriting planes spell out 'KC Grand Championship', whereas the skywriting planes spell out 'KC Grand Prix' with smaller letters as well.
+
* In the original, when Weevil plays his "Insect Queen", the card he places on his duel disk has the series 2 [[Card layout|card layout]]. However, when the card materializes in front of him, it has the series 3 layout.
* Cut from the English version is a sequence of a pan of the contestants and where [[Mokuba]] explains the tournament rules, saying that the Duelists will be divided into two groups, A and B, for the preliminary elimination and that the winner will be the first KC Grand Prix champion.
 
* On the screen where it displays the fixtures for the tournament, in the dub it shows KC next to the pictures of the contestants in the list whereas in the Japanese it shows their own names written in English and katakana/kanji next the pictures.
 
  
==Trivia==
+
* "Marie the Fallen One" is shown as a normal monster when it clearly is an effect monster.
[[File:Narutocameo.png|thumb|150px|right|Naruto characters cameo]]
 
* Even though the two "[[Stone Giant]]" are tokens in both versions, they are given the background of an Effect Monster.
 
* Apdnarg keeps slipping up and making it obvious that he's Grandpa Muto; Joey. however, is too dense to pick up these signs.
 
* Cameo appearances of Chōji Akimichi, Shikamaru Nara, and Ino Yamanaka, from Naruto, are in the stand.
 
* Apdnarg's "[[Mirage of Nightmare (anime)|Mirage of Nightmare]]"/"[[Emergency Provisions (anime)|Emergency Provisions]]" combo would be commonly used by the [[Jaden Yuki|protagonist]] of the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX|following series]].

The might of the "Ancient Dragon".

  • Professor Hawkins explains that several Spell Cards and Monster Cards are needed to fulfill the Summoning Conditions of "Ancient Dragon": both he and Solomon searched for them and got stuck: they were missing the "Ancient Key" Spell Card. However, Solomon went and finally managed to acquire it, to the Professor's delight: he's finally able to see the combo finished.
  • Eventually, Joey manages a combo to get rid of "Ancient City" and wins the Duel. Apdnarg Otum "unveils" himself, taking Joey aback while the others sigh: it was obvious from the very beginning!

Meanwhile...

  • It also shown how Leon Wilson has won over Richard Goat. The medic collapses and both nurses have to evacuate him in a stretcher, to Leon's surprise.
  • Besides, everyone's comic relief duo, Weevil Underwood and Rex Raptor make it to Kaiba Land USA, having heard of the KC Grand Prix. They're ready to have their rematches on both Yugi & Joey.

Featured Duel: Joey Wheeler vs. Apdnarg Otum

Duel continues from previous episode.

Joey has 2200 Life Points remaining and controls no cards.

Apdnarg has 5000 Life Points remaining and controls "Ancient Giant" (2200/1100) and two "Stone Giants" (400/2000) in Attack Position and "Ancient City", "Ancient Key", "The Legendary Gambler", and one set card.

Turn 7: Joey
Joey draws "Goblin Attack Force" and subsequently Normal Summons it (2300/0) in Attack Position. "Goblin Attack Force" attacks Apdnarg Otum's "Ancient Giant", but Apdnarg Otum activates his face-down "Ordeal of a Traveler". Now when Joey attacks, Apdnarg can select a random Card from his hand and make Joey guess whether the random card is a Magic, Trap, or Monster Card. If Joey guesses wrong, his attacking monster is returned to his hand. Apdnarg selects the only card in his hand for the effect of "Ordeal of a Traveler" and Joey guesses Magic Card (Trap Card in the dub), but the chosen card is revealed to be a monster ("Sinister Serpent"), so "Goblin Attack Force" is returned to Joey hand. Joey Sets a Card.

Turn 8: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws "Ancient Tome". "Ancient Giant" attacks directly, but Joey activates his face-down "Scapegoat" to Special Summon four "Sheep Tokens" (0/0 for all) in Defense Position. A replay occurs and Apdnarg uses "Ancient Giant" to attack & destroy one "Sheep Token". Apdnarg Otum then activates "Ancient Tome". Now once during Apdnarg's Main Phase, he can swap a Card in his Hand with the top Card of his Deck. He must also send one card from his hand to the Graveyard during his Standby Phase, or "Ancient Tome" will be destroyed.

Apdnarg then activates the effect of "Ancient Tome" to swap the "Sinister Serpent" in his hand with the top card of his Deck. He then switches his two "Stone Giants" (400/2000) to Defense Position. On Apdanarg's End Phase, the effects of both "Stone Giants" activate (Apdanrg Otum 5000 → 4500 → 4000).

Turn 9: Joey
Joey draws "Roll of Fate". He then Normal Summons "Goblin Attack Force" (2300/0) in Attack Position.

Turn 10: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws "Sinister Serpent". On Apdanrg's Standby Phase, he sends "Sinister Serpent" from his hand to the Graveyard to keep "Ancient Tome" in play. The effect of "Sinister Serpent" then activates, returning it from Apdnarg's Graveyard to his hand. Apdnarg then switches his two "Stone Giants" to Attack Position. He then activates the second effect of "Ancient Key" to send it and his two "Stone Giants" to the Graveyard in order to add "Ancient Gate" from his Deck to his hand. Apdnarg then activates "Ancient Gate".

Apdnarg then activates the first effect of "Ancient City" to send "Ancient Gate", "Ancient Giant" and "Ancient Tome" to the Graveyard and Special Summon "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) in Attack Position. "Ancient Dragon" attacks & destroys Joey's "Goblin Attack Force" (Joey 2200 → 1700). Since "Ancient Dragon" destroyed a monster in battle, its effect activates, destroying all of Joey's Defense Position Monsters.

Turn 11: Joey
Joey draws "Gilford the Lightning". He then activates "Roll of Fate" to roll a die. Depending on the result, Joey must draw the same number of Cards as the result of the roll from his Deck, then he must send that same number of Cards from the top of his Deck to his Graveyard. Apdnarg then activates the effect of "The Legendary Gambler" to roll a die of his own. Joey's "Roll of Fate" roll is a 4 while Apdnarg Otum's "The Legendary Gambler" roll is a 3, so the effect of "Roll of Fate" continues. Joey draws four cards and sends the top four cards of his Deck to the Graveyard.

Joey then activates "Landstar Forces" to Special Summon "Brigadier of Landstar" (900/1200), "Knight of Landstar" (1000/900) and "Grappler of Landstar" (1000/500) from his hand in Attack Position. Joey then Tributes "Brigadier of Landstar", "Knight of Landstar" and "Grappler of Landstar" in order to Tribute Summon "Gilford the Lightning" (2800/1400) in Attack Position. Since "Gilford the Lightning" was Tribute Summoned by Tributing three monsters, its effect activates, destroying all of Apdanarg's monsters.

"Gilford the Lightning" attacks directly. The effect of Apdanarg's "Ordeal of a Traveler" activates, forcing Joey to guess the type of one card in Apdnarg's hand. Joey guesses Monster (it was the "Sinister Serpent" which returned to Solomon's hand previously). He is correct, so the direct attack continues (Apdanarg Otum 4000 → 1200). On Joey's End Phase, Apdanarg Otum activates the second effect of "Ancient City" to revive "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) from in Attack Position.

Turn 12: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws. "Ancient Dragon" attacks Joey's "Gilford the Lightning". Both monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. On Apdnarg's End Phase, he activates the second effect of "Ancient City" to revive "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) in Attack Position.

Turn 13: Joey
Joey draws "Pot of Greed" and subsequently activates it to draw two cards ("Giant Trunade" and "Premature Burial"). Joey's hand is shown to contain "Jinzo", "Polymerization", and "Alligator's Sword". Joey then activates "Premature Burial" to pay 800 Life Points (Joey 1700 → 900) and revive "Goblin Attack Force" (2300/0) in Attack Position. Joey then activates "Giant Trunade" to return all Magic and Trap Cards to their owner's Hands; "The Legendary Gambler", "Ordeal of a Traveler", and "Ancient City" are returned to Apdanarg Otum's hand while "Premature Burial" is returned to Joey's Hand.

Joey then activates "Premature Burial" again (Joey 900 → 100) to revive "Gilford the Lightning" (2800/1400) in Attack Position. "Gilford the Lightning" attacks Apdnarg Otum's "Ancient Dragon". Both monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. "Goblin Attack Force" attacks directly (Apdnarg Otum 1200 → 0).

Differences in adaptations

  • In the previous episode, "Brigadier of Landstar" was seen in Joey's hand. However, this card was not seen nor does it appear in his hand instead "Alligator's Sword" a card that he didn't used was seen. This meant "Swordsman of Landstar" was suppose to be "Alligator's Sword".
  • In "Premature Burial", the cross is blurred and made less visible, to avoid any religious connotation.

Notes

  • This episode shows how far Joey has come when devising his strategies.
    • However, he overlooked a more simple plan: as Apnarg only had 1200 LP left, he could have summoned Alligator's Sword (1500 ATK) and then played Premature Burial to bring back Gilford. . Then the formula for Joey's victory would follow the same route as what he actually did.

Mistakes

  • When Apnarg redraws "Sinister Serpent", after having switched it with the top card of his deck with "Ancient Tome" the previous turn, he is shown putting the drawn card into his hand and discarding the Sinister Serpent already in his hand for Ancient Tome's cost.

Featured Duel: Joey Wheeler vs. Apdnarg Otum

Duel continues from previous episode.

Joey has 2200 Life Points remaining and controls no cards.

Apdnarg has 5000 Life Points remaining and controls "Ancient Giant" (2200/1100) and two "Stone Giants" (400/2000) in Attack Position and "Ancient City", "Ancient Key", "The Legendary Gambler", and one set card.

Turn 7: Joey
Joey draws "Goblin Attack Force" and subsequently Normal Summons it (2300/0) in Attack Position. "Goblin Attack Force" attacks Apdnarg Otum's "Ancient Giant", but Apdnarg Otum activates his face-down "Ordeal of a Traveler". Now when Joey attacks, Apdnarg can select a random Card from his hand and make Joey guess whether the random card is a Magic, Trap, or Monster Card. If Joey guesses wrong, his attacking monster is returned to his hand. Apdnarg selects the only card in his hand for the effect of "Ordeal of a Traveler" and Joey guesses Magic Card (Trap Card in the dub), but the chosen card is revealed to be a monster ("Sinister Serpent"), so "Goblin Attack Force" is returned to Joey hand. Joey Sets a Card.

Turn 8: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws "Ancient Tome". "Ancient Giant" attacks directly, but Joey activates his face-down "Scapegoat" to Special Summon four "Sheep Tokens" (0/0 for all) in Defense Position. A replay occurs and Apdnarg uses "Ancient Giant" to attack & destroy one "Sheep Token". Apdnarg Otum then activates "Ancient Tome". Now once during Apdnarg's Main Phase, he can swap a Card in his Hand with the top Card of his Deck. He must also send one card from his hand to the Graveyard during his Standby Phase, or "Ancient Tome" will be destroyed.

Apdnarg then activates the effect of "Ancient Tome" to swap the "Sinister Serpent" in his hand with the top card of his Deck. He then switches his two "Stone Giants" (400/2000) to Defense Position. On Apdanarg's End Phase, the effects of both "Stone Giants" activate (Apdanrg Otum 5000 → 4500 → 4000).

Turn 9: Joey
Joey draws "Roll of Fate". He then Normal Summons "Goblin Attack Force" (2300/0) in Attack Position.

Turn 10: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws "Sinister Serpent". On Apdanrg's Standby Phase, he sends "Sinister Serpent" from his hand to the Graveyard to keep "Ancient Tome" in play. The effect of "Sinister Serpent" then activates, returning it from Apdnarg's Graveyard to his hand. Apdnarg then switches his two "Stone Giants" to Attack Position. He then activates the second effect of "Ancient Key" to send it and his two "Stone Giants" to the Graveyard in order to add "Ancient Gate" from his Deck to his hand. Apdnarg then activates "Ancient Gate".

Apdnarg then activates the first effect of "Ancient City" to send "Ancient Gate", "Ancient Giant" and "Ancient Tome" to the Graveyard and Special Summon "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) in Attack Position. "Ancient Dragon" attacks & destroys Joey's "Goblin Attack Force" (Joey 2200 → 1700). Since "Ancient Dragon" destroyed a monster in battle, its effect activates, destroying all of Joey's Defense Position Monsters.

Turn 11: Joey
Joey draws "Gilford the Lightning". He then activates "Roll of Fate" to roll a die. Depending on the result, Joey must draw the same number of Cards as the result of the roll from his Deck, then he must send that same number of Cards from the top of his Deck to his Graveyard. Apdnarg then activates the effect of "The Legendary Gambler" to roll a die of his own. Joey's "Roll of Fate" roll is a 4 while Apdnarg Otum's "The Legendary Gambler" roll is a 3, so the effect of "Roll of Fate" continues. Joey draws four cards and sends the top four cards of his Deck to the Graveyard.

Joey then activates "Landstar Forces" to Special Summon "Brigadier of Landstar" (900/1200), "Knight of Landstar" (1000/900) and "Grappler of Landstar" (1000/500) from his hand in Attack Position. Joey then Tributes "Brigadier of Landstar", "Knight of Landstar" and "Grappler of Landstar" in order to Tribute Summon "Gilford the Lightning" (2800/1400) in Attack Position. Since "Gilford the Lightning" was Tribute Summoned by Tributing three monsters, its effect activates, destroying all of Apdanarg's monsters.

"Gilford the Lightning" attacks directly. The effect of Apdanarg's "Ordeal of a Traveler" activates, forcing Joey to guess the type of one card in Apdnarg's hand. Joey guesses Monster (it was the "Sinister Serpent" which returned to Solomon's hand previously). He is correct, so the direct attack continues (Apdanarg Otum 4000 → 1200). On Joey's End Phase, Apdanarg Otum activates the second effect of "Ancient City" to revive "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) from in Attack Position.

Turn 12: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws. "Ancient Dragon" attacks Joey's "Gilford the Lightning". Both monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. On Apdnarg's End Phase, he activates the second effect of "Ancient City" to revive "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) in Attack Position.

Turn 13: Joey
Joey draws "Pot of Greed" and subsequently activates it to draw two cards ("Giant Trunade" and "Premature Burial"). Joey's hand is shown to contain "Jinzo", "Polymerization", and "Alligator's Sword". Joey then activates "Premature Burial" to pay 800 Life Points (Joey 1700 → 900) and revive "Goblin Attack Force" (2300/0) in Attack Position. Joey then activates "Giant Trunade" to return all Magic and Trap Cards to their owner's Hands; "The Legendary Gambler", "Ordeal of a Traveler", and "Ancient City" are returned to Apdanarg Otum's hand while "Premature Burial" is returned to Joey's Hand.

Joey then activates "Premature Burial" again (Joey 900 → 100) to revive "Gilford the Lightning" (2800/1400) in Attack Position. "Gilford the Lightning" attacks Apdnarg Otum's "Ancient Dragon". Both monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. "Goblin Attack Force" attacks directly (Apdnarg Otum 1200 → 0).

"Ancient Dragon" attacks & destroys Joey's "Goblin Attack Force" (Joey 2200 → 1700). Since "Ancient Dragon" destroyed a monster in battle, its effect activates, destroying all of Joey's Defense Position Monsters.

Turn 11: Joey
Joey draws "Gilford the Lightning". He then activates "Roll of Fate" to roll a die. Depending on the result, Joey must draw the same number of Cards as the result of the roll from his Deck, then he must send that same number of Cards from the top of his Deck to his Graveyard. Apdnarg then activates the effect of "The Legendary Gambler" to roll a die of his own. Joey's "Roll of Fate" roll is a 4 while Apdnarg Otum's "The Legendary Gambler" roll is a 3, so the effect of "Roll of Fate" continues.

Joey then activates "Landstar Forces" to Special Summon "Brigadier of Landstar" (900/1200), "Knight of Landstar" (1000/900) and "Grappler of Landstar" (1000/500) from his hand in Attack Position. Joey then Tributes "Brigadier of Landstar", "Knight of Landstar" and "Grappler of Landstar" in order to Tribute Summon "Gilford the Lightning" (2800/1400) in Attack Position. Since "Gilford the Lightning" was Tribute Summoned by Tributing three monsters, its effect activates, destroying all of Apdanarg's monsters.

"Gilford the Lightning" attacks directly. The effect of Apdanarg's "Ordeal of a Traveler" activates, forcing Joey to guess the type of one card in Apdnarg's hand. Joey guesses Monster (it was the "Sinister Serpent" which returned to Solomon's hand previously). He is correct, so the direct attack continues (Apdanarg Otum 4000 → 1200).

    • However, he overlooked a more simple plan: as Apnarg only had 1200 LP left, he could have summoned Alligator's Sword (1500 ATK) and then played Premature Burial to bring back Gilford. . Then the formula for Joey's victory would follow the same route as what he actually did.

Mistakes

  • When Apnarg redraws "Sinister Serpent", after having switched it with the top card of his deck with "Ancient Tome" the previous turn, he is shown putting the drawn card into his hand and discarding the Sinister Serpent already in his hand for Ancient Tome's cost.

Featured Duel: Joey Wheeler vs. Apdnarg Otum

Duel continues from previous episode.

Joey has 2200 Life Points remaining and controls no cards.

Apdnarg has 5000 Life Points remaining and controls "Ancient Giant" (2200/1100) and two "Stone Giants" (400/2000) in Attack Position and "Ancient City", "Ancient Key", "The Legendary Gambler", and one set card.

Turn 7: Joey
Joey draws "Goblin Attack Force" and subsequently Normal Summons it (2300/0) in Attack Position. "Goblin Attack Force" attacks Apdnarg Otum's "Ancient Giant", but Apdnarg Otum activates his face-down "Ordeal of a Traveler". Now when Joey attacks, Apdnarg can select a random Card from his hand and make Joey guess whether the random card is a Magic, Trap, or Monster Card. If Joey guesses wrong, his attacking monster is returned to his hand. Apdnarg selects the only card in his hand for the effect of "Ordeal of a Traveler" and Joey guesses Magic Card (Trap Card in the dub), but the chosen card is revealed to be a monster ("Sinister Serpent"), so "Goblin Attack Force" is returned to Joey hand. Joey Sets a Card.

Turn 8: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws "Ancient Tome". "Ancient Giant" attacks directly, but Joey activates his face-down "Scapegoat" to Special Summon four "Sheep Tokens" (0/0 for all) in Defense Position. A replay occurs and Apdnarg uses "Ancient Giant" to attack & destroy one "Sheep Token". Apdnarg Otum then activates "Ancient Tome". Now once during Apdnarg's Main Phase, he can swap a Card in his Hand with the top Card of his Deck. He must also send one card from his hand to the Graveyard during his Standby Phase, or "Ancient Tome" will be destroyed.

Apdnarg then activates the effect of "Ancient Tome" to swap the "Sinister Serpent" in his hand with the top card of his Deck. He then switches his two "Stone Giants" (400/2000) to Defense Position. On Apdanarg's End Phase, the effects of both "Stone Giants" activate (Apdanrg Otum 5000 → 4500 → 4000).

Turn 9: Joey
Joey draws "Roll of Fate". He then Normal Summons "Goblin Attack Force" (2300/0) in Attack Position.

Turn 10: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws "Sinister Serpent". On Apdanrg's Standby Phase, he sends "Sinister Serpent" from his hand to the Graveyard to keep "Ancient Tome" in play. The effect of "Sinister Serpent" then activates, returning it from Apdnarg's Graveyard to his hand. Apdnarg then switches his two "Stone Giants" to Attack Position. He then activates the second effect of "Ancient Key" to send it and his two "Stone Giants" to the Graveyard in order to add "Ancient Gate" from his Deck to his hand. Apdnarg then activates "Ancient Gate".

Apdnarg then activates the first effect of "Ancient City" to send "Ancient Gate", "Ancient Giant" and "Ancient Tome" to the Graveyard and Special Summon "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) in Attack Position. "Ancient Dragon" attacks & destroys Joey's "Goblin Attack Force" (Joey 2200 → 1700). Since "Ancient Dragon" destroyed a monster in battle, its effect activates, destroying all of Joey's Defense Position Monsters.

Turn 11: Joey
Joey draws "Gilford the Lightning". He then activates "Roll of Fate" to roll a die. Depending on the result, Joey must draw the same number of Cards as the result of the roll from his Deck, then he must send that same number of Cards from the top of his Deck to his Graveyard. Apdnarg then activates the effect of "The Legendary Gambler" to roll a die of his own. Joey's "Roll of Fate" roll is a 4 while Apdnarg Otum's "The Legendary Gambler" roll is a 3, so the effect of "Roll of Fate" continues. Joey draws four cards and sends the top four cards of his Deck to the Graveyard.

Joey then activates "Landstar Forces" to Special Summon "Brigadier of Landstar" (900/1200), "Knight of Landstar" (1000/900) and "Grappler of Landstar" (1000/500) from his hand in Attack Position. Joey then Tributes "Brigadier of Landstar", "Knight of Landstar" and "Grappler of Landstar" in order to Tribute Summon "Gilford the Lightning" (2800/1400) in Attack Position. Since "Gilford the Lightning" was Tribute Summoned by Tributing three monsters, its effect activates, destroying all of Apdanarg's monsters.

"Gilford the Lightning" attacks directly. The effect of Apdanarg's "Ordeal of a Traveler" activates, forcing Joey to guess the type of one card in Apdnarg's hand. Joey guesses Monster (it was the "Sinister Serpent" which returned to Solomon's hand previously). He is correct, so the direct attack continues (Apdanarg Otum 4000 → 1200). On Joey's End Phase, Apdanarg Otum activates the second effect of "Ancient City" to revive "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) from in Attack Position.

Turn 12: Apdnarg
Apdnarg draws. "Ancient Dragon" attacks Joey's "Gilford the Lightning". Both monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. On Apdnarg's End Phase, he activates the second effect of "Ancient City" to revive "Ancient Dragon" (2800/2100) in Attack Position.

Turn 13: Joey
Joey draws "Pot of Greed" and subsequently activates it to draw two cards ("Giant Trunade" and "Premature Burial"). Joey's hand is shown to contain "Jinzo", "Polymerization", and "Alligator's Sword". Joey then activates "Premature Burial" to pay 800 Life Points (Joey 1700 → 900) and revive "Goblin Attack Force" (2300/0) in Attack Position. Joey then activates "Giant Trunade" to return all Magic and Trap Cards to their owner's Hands; "The Legendary Gambler", "Ordeal of a Traveler", and "Ancient City" are returned to Apdanarg Otum's hand while "Premature Burial" is returned to Joey's Hand.

Joey then activates "Premature Burial" again (Joey 900 → 100) to revive "Gilford the Lightning" (2800/1400) in Attack Position. "Gilford the Lightning" attacks Apdnarg Otum's "Ancient Dragon". Both monsters are destroyed in a Double KO. "Goblin Attack Force" attacks directly (Apdnarg Otum 1200 → 0).

Differences in adaptations

  • In the previous episode, "Brigadier of Landstar" was seen in Joey's hand. However, this card was not seen nor does it appear in his hand instead "Alligator's Sword" a card that he didn't used was seen. This meant "Swordsman of Landstar" was suppose to be "Alligator's Sword".
  • In "Premature Burial", the cross is blurred and made less visible, to avoid any religious connotation.

Notes

  • This episode shows how far Joey has come when devising his strategies.
    • However, he overlooked a more simple plan: as Apnarg only had 1200 LP left, he could have summoned Alligator's Sword (1500 ATK) and then played Premature Burial to bring back Gilford. . Then the formula for Joey's victory would follow the same route as what he actually did.

"Child's Play", known as "Fierce Fighting! Rebecca vs. Vivian" in the Japanese version, is the one-hundred eighty-ninth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! second series anime. It first aired in Japan on January 28, 2004 and in the United States on September 10, 2005.

Rebecca Hawkins and Vivian Wong engage in their KC Grand Prix Duel. Meanwhile, Seto Kaiba continues to search for the hacker, whom he begins to suspect may be one of the competitors in the tournament. Zigfried is ambushed by Weevil Underwood and Rex Raptor, and decides to face them both at the same time in a Duel.

Summary

The group come out of the Jungle Zone and Mokuba spots Rebecca Hawkins and Vivian Wong getting ready for their B Block Duel in the "Blue-Eyes Train Station". Solomon is thrilled and suggests going to cheer. Tristan jokingly asks who he's gonna cheer for, so he quickly announces he'll cheer Rebecca to please Professor Hawkins. Suddenly, his spine creaks and he collapses: he's thrown out his back. Mokuba quickly calls for a medic while Solomon tells Yugi and his friends to go on ahead.

Meanwhile, Fortune Salim is heading towards the restrooms and Weevil Underwood along with Rex Raptor decide to intercept him: they rush inside, knock him out, take off his tunic, and lock him in the closet after tying up and gagging him.

Rebecca and Vivian begin their Duel after some initial tension. Yugi and his friends come to cheer and Vivian goes crazy upon spotting him. Téa encourages Rebecca to beat Vivian.

From the control center inside of "Blue-Eyes Dome", Kaiba monitors all Duels; all's too quiet for his taste. He was expecting the hacker to make some more noise or signal its presence in a more open manner. He suddenly realizes that he could be among the Duelists, so he orders a checking of all of the Duelists' backgrounds: he's sure to catch the "mouse" like this.

The two girls' Duel continues: the lead switches in a quick manner, but Rebecca's combo of Life Points recovery and burn damage manages to wear her down. Duke Devlin comments upon Vivian being called the "Duel Queen" for her all-out victory in the Asia Tournament. Obviously, Kaiba wouldn't choose just anyone to participate in the KC Grand Prix. However, Rebecca manages to win in the end thanks to her combo skills.

In the meanwhile, Paul McGregor defeats another of the contestants, Shane Jordan, in the A Block Round 1 Duel. Another Duel in the A Block is about to start: Zigfried Lloyd VS Fortune Salim. On the way to the Duel spot, Weevil and Rex (who have assumed his identity) trip down a flight of stairs and are exposed. Mokuba demands to know what happened to the real Salim and Weevil improvises that he's not feeling well and asked for them to replace him. Mokuba obviously doesn't buy it and announces that, since they're not registered, this Duel will be invalidated and Zigfried will automatically win. At that moment, Zigfried announces that he doesn't mind having a Duel with them: they'll be just an entertainment but far more worth than winning in an automatic manner. This made the two mad, and they agree to a tag team against him. Zigfrieg glances at a nearby CCTV camera and thinks that he'll show Kaiba a bit of my "true power".

Both Rex and Weevil managed to Summon high-Level Effect Monsters in just 1 turn. Zigfried draws and activates a Magic Card: "Ride of the Valkyries". Due to its effect, he Special Summons four "Valkyrie" monsters and, in just 1 turn, defeats both enemy monsters and wipes out Weevil and Rex's Life Points. Even Kaiba is taken aback by it. Yugi suspects that he'll be a very difficult opponent indeed.

Featured Duels

Featured Duel #1: Rebecca Hawkins vs. Vivian Wong

Turn 1: Vivian
Vivian draws "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1700/1000) in Attack Position.

Turn 2: Rebecca
Rebecca draws "Graceful Charity" and subsequently activates it to draw three cards and discard two ("Cure Mermaid" and "Marie the Fallen One"). The remaining cards in Rebecca's hand are "Gravity Bind", "Scapegoat", "Injection Fairy Lily", "Silent Doom", "Fire Princess", and "Imperial Order". Rebecca then Normal Summons "Fire Princess" (1300/1500) in Attack Position and Sets two Cards.

Turn 3: Vivian
Vivian draws. On Vivian's Standby Phase the effect of "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" activates, increasing its ATK by 300 ("Kung Fu Nyan Nyan": 1700 → 2000/1000). Vivian then Normal Summons "Master Kyonshee" (1750/1000) in Attack Position. "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" attacks Rebecca's "Fire Princess", but Rebecca activates her face-down "Gravity Bind". Now all Level four or higher monsters cannot attack; the attack made by "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" is nullified.

Turn 4: Rebecca
Rebecca draws. On Rebecca's Standby Phase, the effect of "Marie the Fallen One" activates, increasing Rebecca's Life Points by 200 (Rebecca 4000 → 4200).

Turn 5: Vivian
Vivian draws "Mystical Space Typhoon" and subsequently activates it to destroy Rebecca's "Gravity Bind", but Rebecca activates her face-down "Imperial Order". Now the effects of all Spell Cards are negated. Rebecca must also pay 700 Life Points during each of her Standby Phases or "Imperial Order" will be destroyed. Rebecca then chains her face-down "Scapegoat" to the activation of "Imperial Order", letting Rebecca Special Summon four "Sheep Tokens" (0/0 for all) in Defense Position.

Vivian Normal Summons "Gyaku-Gire Panda" (800/1600) in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Gyaku-Gire Panda", it gains 500 ATK for every Monster on Rebecca's side of the Field. Rebecca currently has five ("Gyaku-Gire Panda": 800 → 3300/1600). "Gyaku-Gire Panda" attacks & destroys one of Rebecca's "Sheep Tokens".

The effect of "Marie the Fallen One" then activates (Rebecca 900 → 1100). The effect of "Fire Princess" then activates (Vivian 3500 → 3000). Rebecca then activates "Token Thanksgiving" to destroy all Tokens on the field and increase her Life Points by 800 for each Token destroyed (Rebecca 1100 → 3500) ("Gyaku-Gire Panda": 2800 → 1300/1600). The effect of "Fire Princess" activates (Vivian 3000 → 2500).

Rebecca then activates the effect of "Injection Fairy Lily" to pay 2000 Life Points (Rebecca 3500 → 1500) and increase the ATK of "Injection Fairy Lily" by 3000 ("Injection Fairy Lily": 400 → 3400/1500) during damage calculation. "Injection Fairy Lily" destroys Vivian's "Gyaku-Gire Panda" (Vivian 2500 → 900). After damage calculation, the effect of "Injection Fairy Lily" expires ("Injection Fairy Lily": 3400 → 400/1500).

Turn 7: Vivian
Vivian draws "Luminous Clouds" and subsequently activates it to Tribute her "Kung Fu Nyan Nyan" and "Master Kyonshee" and Special Summon "Dragon Lady" (2500/2100) in Attack Position. Vivian then activates the effect of "Dragon Lady" to destroy Rebecca's "Gravity Bind", however "Dragon Lady" can't attack this turn. Vivian then activates "Mystic Eruption" to inflict 1000 damage to Rebecca since one of her cards was destroyed this turn (Rebecca 1500 → 500).

Turn 8: Rebecca
Rebecca draws "Guardian Angel Joan". On Rebecca's Standby Phase, the effect of "Marie the Fallen One" activates (Rebecca 500 → 700). The effect of "Fire Princess" then activates (Vivian 900 → 400).

Rebecca then activates "Silent Doom" to revive "Fire Princess" (1300/1500) in Defense Position.

Vivian's hand is shown to contain "Soul Tiger", "Inpachi", and "Thunder Nyan Nyan". "Guardian Angel Joan" attacks & destroys Vivian's "Dragon Lady" (Vivian 400 → 100). Since "Guardian Angel Joan" destroyed a monster by battle and sent it to the Graveyard, its effect activates, increasing Rebecca's Life Points by the ATK of "Dragon Lady" (Rebecca 700 → 3200). The effect of "Fire Princess" then activates (Vivian 100 → 0).

Featured Duel #2: Weevil Underwood & Rex Raptor vs. Zigfried Lloyd

Turn 1: Weevil
Weevil draws "Pinch Hopper" and subsequently Normal Summons it (1000/1200) in Attack Position. He then activates "Eradicating Aerosol" to destroy "Pinch Hopper". Since "Pinch Hopper" was sent from the field to the Graveyard, its effect activates, allowing Weevil to Special Summon "Insect Queen" (2200/2400) from his Hand in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Insect Queen", it gains 200 ATK for each Insect-type monster on the field. There is currently one ("Insect Queen": 2200 → 2400/2400)

Turn 2: Rex
Rex draws. He then Normal Summons "Balloon Lizard" (500/1900) in Attack Position. Rex then activates "Ultra Evolution" to Tribute "Balloon Lizard" and Special Summon "Black Tyranno" (2600/1800) from his hand in Attack Position.

Turn 3: Zigfried
Zigfried draws "Ride of the Valkyries" and subsequently activates it, Special Summoning two "Valkyrie Zweite" (1600/1600) and two "Valkyrie Erste" (1600/1800) from his hand in Attack Position. The effects of both "Valkyrie Zweite" activate, destroying Rex's "Black Tyranno" and Weevil's "Insect Queen".

Zigfried then activates the effect of the first "Valkyrie Erste", removing from play the "Black Tyranno" in Rex's Graveyard and making the ATK of "Valkyrie Erste" equal to the ATK of "Black Tyranno" until the End Phase ("Valkyrie Erste": 1600 → 2600/1800).

Zigfried then activates the effect of the second "Valkyrie Erste", removing from the play the "Insect Queen" in Weevil's Graveyard and making the ATK of "Valkyrie Erste" equal to the ATK of "Insect Queen" until the End Phase ("Valkyrie Erste": 1600 → 2400/1800).

One "Valkyrie Erste" and one "Valkyrie Zweite" attack Weevil directly (Weevil 4000 → 1600 → 0) The other "Valkyrie Erste" and "Valkyrie Zweite" attack Rex directly (Rex 4000 → 1400 → 0).

Notes

  • The original ATK of "Insect Queen" appears to have been mistakenly interpreted as 2400 while in the Graveyard, as opposed to its actual original ATK of 2200. Only on the field does it have 2400 ATK, where its effect allows it to gain 200 ATK for each Insect-Type monster on the field including itself. Had the copy of "Valkyrie Erste" that removed from play "Insect Queen" obtained 2200 ATK instead of 2400, Weevil should have been left with 200 LP instead of 0.
    • An alternate possibility is that the original ATK of "Insect Queen" was interpreted correctly, but the separate Life Point counters of Weevil and Rex were not. The combined ATK of Zigfried's four monsters would have been 8000, which may have been used as a justification to drop both Weevil's and Rex's LP from 4000 to 0; however, there is no way to split the four ATK values of 1600, 1600, 2200, and 2600 to individually deal 4000 damage to both Weevil and Rex (unless the 2200 is misinterpreted as 2400 as explained above).
  • For dramatic effect and surprise, Zigfried is shown to execute all of his moves at the same time, with "Ride of the Valkyries" surrounding his opponents' entire field in a great cloud of rose petals before abruptly clearing to show Weevil and Rex's Life Points both at 0.
    • For even greater dramatic effect, in the original Japanese episode when Zigfried activates "Ride of the Valkyries", Richard Wagner's composition Walkürenritt is used as the background music.
  • As this is technically a Tag Duel, none of the three participants should have been able to attack on their first turn, including Zigfried. This may be explained by the fact that the original Duel was intended to be a standard 1-on-1 Duel with Fortune Salim, allowing those rules to apply instead of the rules of a Tag Duel.

Differences In Adaptations

  • Cut from the US version is a shot of Rebecca making rude gestures at Vivian after she wins.
  • The kanji is removed from the veil of "Master Kyonshee" in the US version. It means "spell" or "curse".
  • Vivian is given shorts to wear under her slit skirt in the US version.
  • Cut from the US version is where Grandpa Muto blows steam from his nose and his eyes turning into pink hearts over how beautiful Vivian Wong is.
    • In the dub, he is only excited about seeing another duel.
  • Cut from the US version are shots of Vivian saying she wishes her rival were Yugi or Kaiba. She could use her beautiful skills to make them her captives of love, and together they'd be the strongest dueling couple in the world.
  • In the original, Yugi explains to his friends how chaining works and uses what occurred in Rebecca and Vivian's Duel as part of the explanation. Much of the explanation, with the cards superimposed over him, is removed from the dub.
  • In the dub, instead of being simply for entertainment and not wanting to win by default, Ziegfried convinces Mokuba to let him duel Weevil and Rex because his suit makes him look too good to win by default, as well as not wanting to disappoint the public.
  • In the original version, this takes place in America after Dartz's defeat, so Rex and Weevil have been searching for a way to get back home. In the dub, Rex blundered in directions on how to get to Kaibaland to take place in the KC Grand Championship.

Errors

  • In the original, when Weevil plays his "Insect Queen", the card he places on his duel disk has the series 2 card layout. However, when the card materializes in front of him, it has the series 3 layout.
  • "Marie the Fallen One" is shown as a normal monster when it clearly is an effect monster.
