"The Commander Exposed" is the fifty-eighth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!! anime. It first aired in Japan on May 14, 2023.
Having obtained MIK's most vital secret, Manabu pays a visit to UTS but is marked as a traitor and captured. When Zuwijo shows up out of nowhere, UTS welcomes him back with open arms. Manabu doesn't agree with this, so he challenges Zuwijo to a Duel in order to prove himself!
Featured Duel: Manabu Sogetsu vs. Zuwijo zir Velgear
This Duel is conducted as a Rush Duel.
Turn 1: Zuwijo
Zuwijo's hand contains "Requiem Strike Back", "Diffuse Nebula", "Voidvelgr Hoplites", "Meteorlarva" and "Voidvelgr Kyrie". Zuwijo Normal Summons "Meteorlarva" (600/0), "Kyrie" (200/500) and "Hoplites" (1500/100). Zuwijo activates the effect of "Meteorlarva" to send cards equal to the number of face-up Galaxy Type monsters on his field from the top of his Deck to the Graveyard. Zuwijo sends "Fusion", "Dark Hole" and "Voidvelgr Requiem" from the top of his Deck to the Graveyard. Zuwijo Sets "Diffuse Nebula" and "Requiem Strike Back" in his Spell & Trap Zones. Zuwijo activates the effect of "Kyrie", sending a face-up Level 7 or lower Galaxy Type monster from his field to the Graveyard to add a "Requiem" or "Voidvelgr Chrysaor" from his Graveyard to his hand, then he can choose a face-up card on his field and prevent it from being destroyed by card effects until the end of this turn. Zuwijo sends "Hoplites" from his field to the Graveyard and adds "Requiem" from his Graveyard to his hand. Zuwijo Tributes "Meteorlarva" and "Kyrie" to Tribute Summon "Requiem" (2500/2000).
Turn 2: Manabu
Manabu's hand contains "Volcalize Compound", "Chemical Distill", "Blazebolt Chemistorm Fenghuang Volcalize Phoenix [L]", "Blazebolt Chemistorm Fenghuang Volcalize Phoenix" and "Blazebolt Chemistorm Fenghuang Volcalize Phoenix [R]". Manabu Maximum Summons "Volcalize Phoenix [L]" (2000/0), "Volcalize Phoenix" (2400/0) and "Volcalize Phoenix [R]" (2000/0) in Maximum Mode (3500). As "Volcalize Phoenix" is in Maximum Mode, Manabu activates its effect, sending a FIRE Attribute or Pyro Type monster from his hand to the Graveyard to inflict 1000 damage to Zuwijo, then prevent it from being destroyed by his Trap Card effects and allow it to inflict piercing battle damage until the end of this turn. Manabu sends "Chemical Distill" from his hand to the Graveyard (Zuwijo: 4000 → 3000 LP). As Manabu has a face-up FIRE Attribute monster on his field, he activates the Spell Card "Volcalize Compound", shuffling an Aqua, Pyro or Thunder Type monster from his Graveyard into the Deck to draw a card, then if he has a monster in Maximum Mode or an equipped Equip Spell Card on his field, he can draw an additional card. Manabu shuffles "Chemical Distill" from his Graveyard into the Deck and draws "Chemicalize Despise", then draws "Chemicalize Structure Force". Manabu activates the Equip Spell Card "Chemicalize Structure Force", equipping it to a face-up Aqua, Pyro or Thunder Type monster on his field to increase its ATK by the number of different Types on the field x 300, and if the equipped monster is a Maximum Monster, it cannot be destroyed by Zuwijo's card effects. Manabu equips "Chemicalize Structure Force" to "Volcanize Phoenix" ("Vocalize Phoenix": 3500 → 4100). Manabu Sets "Chemicalize Despise" in his Spell & Trap Zone. "Vocalize Phoenix" attacks and destroys "Requiem" (Zuwijo: 3000 → 1400 LP; "Vocalize Phoenix": 4100 → 3800).
Turn 3: Zuwijo
Zuwijo Normal Summons "Voidvelgr Pale Rider" (1600/0) and "Dark Prophet" (0/0) ("Vocalize Phoenix": 3800 → 4100). As "Dark Prophet" was Normal Summoned this turn, Zuwijo activates its effect, shuffling three DARK Attribute Galaxy Type monsters from his Graveyard into the Deck to add a "Fusion" from his Graveyard to his hand. Zuwijo shuffles "Kyrie", "Meteorlarva" and "Hoplites" from his Graveyard into the Deck and adds "Fusion" from his Graveyard to his hand. Zuwijo activates the Spell Card "Fusion" to Fusion Summon by sending face-up monsters from his field to the Graveyard as material. Zuwijo sends "Pale Rider" and "Dark Prophet" from his field to the Graveyard and Fusion Summons "Voidvelgr Apocalypse" (2500/2000) in Attack Position. Zuwijo activates the effect of "Apocalypse", sending a card from his hand to the Graveyard to increase its ATK by 1000 and prevent it from being destroyed by card effects until the end of this turn, then if it was Special Summoned this turn, he can add a "Dark Hole" from his Graveyard to his hand. Zuwijo sends "Voidvelgr Peltast" from his hand to the Graveyard ("Apocalypse": 2500/2000 → 3500/2000), then adds "Dark Hole" from his Graveyard to his hand. Zuwijo activates the Spell Card "Dark Hole" to destroy all monsters on the field. Zuwijo tries to destroy "Apocalypse" and "Volcalize Phoenix", but due to its effect and the effect of "Chemicalize Structure Force" respectively, they aren't destroyed. Zuwijo activates the Equip Spell Card "Voidvelgr Shroud", equipping it to a face-up Galaxy Type monster on his field to increase its ATK by the number of Spell/Trap Cards on his field x 100, and while the equipped monster is face-up, his Spell/Trap Cards cannot be destroyed by Manabu's card effects. Zuwijo equips "Voidvelgr Shroud" to "Apocalypse" ("Apocalypse": 3500/2000 → 3800/2000). Zuwijo Normal Summons "Voidvelgr Kyriacos" (1000/1000). Zuwijo activates the effect of "Kyriacos", changing its battle position to increase the ATK of a face-up DARK Attribute Galaxy Type monster on his field equipped with an Equip Spell Card by 1000 until the end of this turn. Zuwijo changes "Kyriacos" to Defense Position and chooses "Apocalypse" ("Apocalypse": 3800/2000 → 4800/2000). "Apocalypse" attacks "Vocalize Phoenix". As Zuwijo's monster declared an attack targeting Manabu's face-up Pyro Type monster, Manabu activates his face-down Trap Card "Chemicalize Despite" to negate the attack, then if the attack target's Level is higher than the attacking monster's, he can destroy the attacking monster. Manabu tries to destroy "Apocalypse", but due to its effect, it isn't destroyed. As Zuwijo ends his turn, the ATK of "Apocalypse" returns to normal ("Apocalypse": 4800/2000 → 2800/2000).
Turn 4: Manabu
As "Vocalize Phoenix" is in Maximum Mode, Manabu activates its effect. Manabu sends "Hot the Combustion Spirit" from his hand to the Graveyard (Zuwijo: 1400 → 400 LP). Manabu activates the Spell Card "Chemicalizing Impact", sending two cards from his hand to the Graveyard to increase the ATK of a face-up monster on his field by 1000 until the end of this turn, then if he sent two Aqua, Pyro and/or Thunder Type monsters to the Graveyard this way, that face-up monster gains an additional 1000 ATK until the end of this turn. Manabu sends "Melt the Aqueous Spirit" and "Bolt the Conduction Spirit" from his hand to the Graveyard and chooses "Vocalize Phoenix" ("Vocalize Phoenix": 4100 → 6100). Manabu activates the effect of "Vocalize Phoenix [L]", shuffling a FIRE Attribute Thunder Type monster from his Graveyard into the Deck to destroy a face-up Level 9 or lower monster on Zuwijo's field, then if it is in Maximum Mode, he can destroy an additional monster on Zuwijo's field. Manabu shuffles "Bolt" from his Graveyard into the Deck and destroys "Kyriacos", then destroys "Apocalypse" ("Vocalize Phoenix": 6100 → 5800). As a face-up Galaxy Type monster on Zuwijo's field was destroyed by Manabu's card effect, Zuwijo activates his face-down Trap Card "Diffuse Nebula" to Special Summon a DARK Attribute Galaxy Type monster from his Graveyard to his field in face-up Attack Position, then he can shuffle a monster from Manabu's Graveyard into the Deck. Zuwijo Special Summons "Requiem" (2500/2000) from his Graveyard in Attack Position ("Vocalize Phoenix": 5800 → 6100), then shuffles "Melt" from Manabu's Graveyard into the Deck. "Vocalize Phoenix" attacks "Requiem". As Manabu's monster declared an attack targeting Zuwijo's face-up "Requiem" while Manabu's LP are at least 2500 higher than Zuwijo's, Zuwijo activates his face-down Trap Card "Requiem Strike Back" to negate the attack, then inflict damage to Manabu equal to the attacking monster's ATK (Manabu: 4000 → 0 LP).
