My name is Sanokal. I'm one of the admins on Yugipedia and a Number in YGOrganization. My areas of expertise are coverage of the anime and manga, both in English and Japanese, and in porting rulings translations from YGOrganization to our Card Rulings pages. You can find rulings I've converted into our templates in the sandbox I've linked at the bottom of this page.

==R==
I like to consider myself an authority on R, considering I novelized it. Thus I'll attempt to clean up the related pages and add in summaries. Note [https://web.archive.org/web/20081212102932/http://www.janime.info/YugiohR/cards_yakou.html#ur this useful link] as well, very difficult to find on the internet from my experience (thanks Deltaneos) and ''very'' valuable for potential DM, R, GX, and 5D's summaries that might need them in the future. You will be sorely missed, janime.

==ARC-V==
Okay, it seems like I'm the primary source of adding post-air information onto this wiki. So that's a thing. My memory might be a bit hazy though, so feel free to correct the info. One thing that I can't really do is upload images. I can move images from around the wiki, but what I'll do for when I don't have images is that I'll put down hidden notes for picture prompts.

==Manga==
I have easy access to most manga in English through either VIZ or my local library.

==Summary to-do-list==
* Ceremonial Duel chapters and episodes.

* ''ARC-V'' summaries, correct the grammar in the character biographies, and severely shorten the history sections for pages like [[Lancers]] and [[Duel Academy (ARC-V)]]. Summaries on the to-do list are 85, 135-140, 144-147, and then every other summary in order.

* Doing the same for ''VRAINS''. Summaries on the to-do-list are 32-37 in Season 1, and tentatively for Season 2; 50-58, 69, 70, 72-102.

==Grinding==
01. Find the place that spawns Chansey.
02. False Swipe said Chansey.
03. Keep False Swiping until you've determined whether that Chansey has fling. This is critical to the infinite SOS chain for farming Chansey/Blissey for EXP.
04. Once you've completed step 4, switch out to either Execute line or Phantump line that has Harvest as their ability and has the move Skill Swap. Skill Swap with your target Chansey.
05. Then give it a Leppa Berry via Trick/Switcheroo/Bestow from a Pokémon that can learn the move.
06. And there you have it! Your infinite SOS chain for EXP farming is complete! As long as you don't knock out the Chansey of course.

Tip:
- Use Decidueye. Chansey & Blissey that you encounter only has Egg Bomb and Fling. Poor attacl means literally no damage, lol.

Oh, a few more things.

Because Chansey knows Fling, it'll fling the Leppa Berry to your Pokémon, therefore restoring the PP of whichever move that's the lowest.

Harvest ensures it can do that infinitely while also keeping it's own PP topped up.

==ARC-V Episode 80 Summary (started by Denversapple)==
After his victorious Duel with Shinji, [[Sam_(ARC-V)|Sam]] met Yuya as he left on his Duel Runner. The [[Topsiders]] thanked Yuya as he "stopped" Shinji's drivel about the revolution, while [[Commons_(ARC-V)|the Commons]] and Crow expressed their hatred for Shinji's defeat. Yuya later realized that he put the victory over his entertainment Duel so he could reach Jack and that made him deepen the commotion between him and the Commons. Shinji returned and at the same time, [[Jean-Michel_Roger]] approached Yuya as he was impressed by the Duel, especially when Yuya Pendulum-Synchro Summoned. Because of this, the Commons suspected to have a connection from the Tops and the [[Security]] such as being chosen as [[Jack_Atlas_(ARC-V)|Jack]]'s opponent earlier though he is not known in the City. Roger defended Yuya saying that he just believed in his potential, by Yuya having the Pendulum Summon.

Roger also said that it was best for Yuya to test the Pendulum Summon with his battle with Jack, where Roger expected Jack's victory. Because of this, the [[High Council]] suspected that Roger might be trying to win Yuya by his side but [[Declan Akaba|Declan]] said that he's not that foolish. Sam also started to distrust Yuya and Roger sent Shinji to the [[Underground Labor Facility]]. After the incidents, Yuya left to his Duel Runner, claiming that she found [[Zuzu_Boyle|Zuzu]] but a Security officer blocked him. Roger told the officer to let him go. Yuya escaped the Duel Palace and started to call Sora in the Tops' area and later in the slums, not knowing that he was being followed by an officer. Sora found Yuya and the two of them hid. The officer tossed a tracking device and left.

Sora explained that Zuzu was alive and he kept her in a safe place. He also explained his objectives since the Battle Royal and why he was in the Synchro Dimension: to save Zuzu. After Sora teleported away the end of his Duel with Yuya in the Battle Royal, he immediately came to Duel Academy to search for her, but she was not there. Sora also learned that Leo also wanted Zuzu and [[Celina]], so he returned to Standard Dimension only to learn that Declan formed the [[Lancers]], so he came to the [[Synchro Dimension]]. After hearing Dennis' connection in Lulu's disappearance, he sent Dennis back to Duel Academy to protect Zuzu. Yuya told him that because he sent Dennis back, the Academy would know that Zuzu and Selena were in the Synchro Dimension, but Sora interrupted that the Academy would know anyway since Obelisk Force may come in the Synchro Dimension soon. Because of Sora's loyalty to the Academy's goal to bring Celina back to the Fusion Dimension, he made a proposal to Yuy| A = Yuya must bring Celina to Sora while he handed over Zuzu to Yuya and she will be sent back to [[Standard Dimension]]. Yuya disagreed because he could not abandon Selena. 

Roger eavesdropped on the conversation the whole time via the tracking device. Now knowing that Dennis returned to the Academy, he became afraid that Leo would send [[Yuri]] into the dimension. Hesitantly, he went to secure Yuya and Sora to forcefully tell him about Zuzu's location.
Yuya swore to defeat Academy and hoped that Sora would open his eyes soon. Yuya saw an officer from a rooftop who shot a net aiming to trap Sora. Yuya pushed Sora out of the way and got caught instead. Yuya told Sora to protect Zuzu; as Sora left, Yuya wished him luck.

==ARC-V Episode 135 section==
Declan tells them to watch this; Yuya's path to victory, and Riley cries that he sees it; the effect of "Dark Rebellion" can halve the ATK of a Level 5 or higher monster and allow it to gain that much ATK, and Aster adds that "Dark Rebellion" can use the effect twice. Sora cries that Yuya will win.

<!--@"Clear Wing" manages to protect "Dark Rebellion" just in time.-->
But Yuri refuses to let Yuya, and he activates a Trap Card "[[Predaplant Reborn]]", Special Summoning a "Predaplant" monster from his Graveyard. He revives "[[Predaplant Stapeliaworm]]" in Defense Position, and he explains that once per turn when the ATK of a monster would change due to an effect, it can negate and destroy that card. As Declan, Riley, Aster and Sora grit their teeth in frustration, Yuri challenges Yuya to try it and lose "Dark Rebellion". Yuya responds by activating the effect of "Flatrat" as a monster was Normal or Special Summoned, making its Level the same as that of "Flatrat"; 5. "Flatrat" builds up energy by running on its rolling pin, and then casts that energy at "Stapeliaworm", raising it to Level 5. Then Yuya activates the effect of "Dark Rebellion", detaching an Overlay Unit and declaring "Treason Discharge". Yuri counters with the effect of "Stapeliaworm" to destroy "Dark Rebellion", but Yuya activates the effect of "Clear Wing Synchro Dragon" as the effect of a Level 5 or higher monster was activated, negating that effect and destroying that monster, then having "Clear Wing" gain ATK equal to the ATK of the destroyed monster. "Clear Wing" destroys "Stapeliaworm" just before it can strike "Dark Rebellion", rising to 2600 ATK. Yuri scowls in fury, and Yuya adds that now that "Stapeliaworm" has been destroyed, the effect of "Dark Rebellion" continues, and the ATK of "Starving Venom" is halved to 1400 and the ATK of "Dark Rebellion" is raised by that amount, to 3900. The specters of Yuto and Yugo appear in front of their Dimension Dragons, and Aster and Riley gasp that Yugo and Yuto are helping Yuya; they returned with their Dragons to their friend. Declan tells Yuya to do it, and Yuya detaches the other Overlay Unit from "Dark Rebellion" to activate its "Treason Discharge" effect again. "Starving Venom" falls to 700 ATK, and "Dark Rebellion" rises to 4600. Aster eagerly declares that it's decided, and Sora cries that Yuya wins. Declan tells Yuya to defeat Yuri.

<!--@The flames approach "Starving Venom" as Yuri realizes that he's about to lose.-->
But again, Yuri refuses to be defeated yet, and he activates another Trap Card - "[[Ridiculing World]]", which increases the ATK of all monsters Yuya controls by 100. Giggling dark spirits swarm Yuya's monsters as their ATK rises, and Yuri explains that it will prevent any monster with ATK that is higher than their original ATK from attacking this turn. He cackles madly, asking Yuya how this is; now he can't use his limbs anymore and he throws back his head and laughs. But since the ATK of a monster he controls changed, Yuya activates the effect of "Flatrat", Tributing it to return that monster's ATK to normal. As "Flatrat" runs so quickly on its rolling pin that it's spun into a circle of rainbow energy and rockets into the air, Yuri calls it useless; no matter which Dragon Yuya chooses, as soon as "Starving Venom" is destroyed, its effect will activate and destroy all of Yuya's Dragons, then inflict damage to him equal to their ATK and he'll be defeated. Yuya declares that it's Yuri's LP that will no longer remain, and he explains that he's returning the ATK of "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" to normal. He declares battle, and "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" attacks "Starving Venom Fusion Dragon" with "Spiral Flame Strike". "Odd-Eyes" blasts the crimson plume at "Starving Venom", and Yuya adds that when it battles a Level 5 or higher monster, the battle damage will be doubled. The orbs on "Odd-Eyes'" wing spikes glow, and it unleashes the orange plumes of its "Reaction Force" effect. As the flames approach "Starving Venom", Yuri asks in shock if he's losing. Then he begins to laugh, and he continues to laugh as the flames engulf him and blast him onto his back, reducing his LP to zero as "[[Crossover]]" dissipates.

Yuya tells them that he won, by thinking only of winning, he won. Darkness begins to rise around him again and Riley nervously says Yuya's name. 

Yuya turns to them, his irises glowing brightly and his face contorted by a fiendish smile, as he declares that it was just as they wished. 

<!--@Yuya howls as he is engulfed by the darkness.--><!--@Supreme King Z-ARC reunites as one above the shattered dimensions.-->
Aster, Sora, Declan and Riley all gasp in horror, and Yuya declares that he will keep on winning until they destroy the world. Darkness erupts from his body and sends [[Yuya's pendant|his pendant]] flying away, and his "Stargazer" and "Timegazer Magicians" emerge from his Extra Deck and swirl in the air, combining into a single card. A starscape appears above them, the lining of the cloak of "[[Astrograph Sorcerer (anime)|Astrograph Sorcerer]]", who raises his staff as Yuya howls wildly, his eyes now completely blotted out by white and red light as his counterparts have been while [[Awakened]], and both the three Dragons he controlled, as well as Yuri's "Starving Venom", whose eyes have also become blotted out by white and purple light, rise into the air and orbit the tip of his staff. Declan asks in shock what it is, and Yuya chants "Astrograph Sorcerer who governs spacetime! With your abyssal power overlay our desires!" Blue light radiates from "Astrograph Sorcerer's" staff, and pulse of blue light radiates from the tip, then an explosion of symbols that blind Declan, Riley, Aster and Sora and radiate out across the entire space. The light fades as they run outside, beholding numerous floating islands and tears in space showing the other dimensions, and as they look out across the empty expanse, they behold a massive, shadowy form. Riley realizes what it is, as does a grim Declan, and they behold Supreme King Z-ARC, his shroud of shadows now revealing tan sections beneath the darkness. Supreme King Z-ARC roars, his eyes glowing red beneath the darkness.

==ARC-V Episode 146 section==
<!--@Yuya successfully summons all Four Dimension Dragons.-->
He declares his turn and he draws "[[Performapal Odd-Eyes Synchron (anime)|Performapal Odd-Eyes Synchron]]". With the already set Pendulum Scale, he Pendulum Summons, reviving "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon", "Performapal Coin Dragon", and "Performapal Odd-Eyes Minitaurus" (who slumps at the notion of being pummeled again). Jack angrily asks if Yuya doesn't understand, but Yuya tells Jack that he gets it; in other words, is Jack saying that he wants Yuya to be a master that doesn't get his hand bitten by his own dog. Jack seems surprised that Yuya is finally understanding, and he tells him that's right, telling Yuya to show him his strength as a master who freely manipulates the four ferocious Dragons. Yuya replies that he'll show Jack their power, and as Yuto's form flickers over Yuya's body, he tells Yuto that he kept him waiting; this is for him. He accelerates past Jack, and he [[Xyz Material|overlays]] the Level 4 "Performapal Coin Dragon" and "Performapal Odd-Eyes Minitaurus", chanting "From the black darkness, the fangs of rebellion that fight against the powers of stupidity descend! [[Xyz Summon]]! Appear! [[Rank 4 Monster Cards|Rank 4]]! Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon!" They emerge in the Xyz Dimension, and Allen cheers that there it is, and Saya gasps that it's Yuto's Dragon. Dennis cheers, telling Yuya that that's it. Both Dimension Dragons roar, and Riley begins to react. Henrietta gasps his name, and Declan notes that the evil soul is reacting, after all, the Dragons and Zarc's soul are... Meanwhile, Yusho watches the Duel grimly. Yuya then Summons the Tuner monster "Performapal Odd-Eyes Synchron", and then Yugo's image appears over Yuya as Yuya tells him that it's his time now. He explains that "Performapal Odd-Eyes Synchron" use a card in his Pendulum Zone to Synchro Summon, and he tunes the Level 2 "Odd-Eyes Synchron" with the [[Level 5 Monster Cards|Level 5]] "Stargazer Magician", chanting "Flap your beautiful and heroic wings to strike the enemy at the speed of light! Synchro Summon! Appear! [[Clear Wing Synchro Dragon (anime)|Clear Wing Synchro Dragon]]!" ("Beat your wings to whip up a whirlwind of destruction! I Synchro Summon! Clear Wing Synchro Dragon!" in the dub.) They pass into the space between dimension again, and Riley glows with a dark aura as she continues to cry and Henrietta gasps in horror. Yuri's outline then flickers over Yuya, and Yuya states that it's finally Yuri. The effect of "Performapal Odd-Eyes Dissolver" allows it to fuse with the "Timegazer Magician" in Yuya's Pendulum Zone, so he chants "Dichromatic eyes that illuminate the dark night! Become time's compass, and point to a new path! [[Fusion Summon]]! Appear! [[Starving Venom Fusion Dragon (anime)|Starving Venom Fusion Dragon]]!" ("...and together they'll bring out the most toxic monster ever seen! I Fusion Summon! The vicious, venomous, and voracious, Starving Venom Fusion Dragon!" in the dub.) As all Four Dimension Dragons fly in formation behind Yuya, the dark aura around Riley intensifies and Henrietta begs them to stop it. Yusho gently pats Riley's head, telling Henrietta that she has to endure it. The real fun is only just getting started.

==ARC-V Episode 147 section==
Yuya's counterattack, Yuya summons the four dragons,

Declan rises on "Armageddon", telling Yuya to put that into practice and make him smile. Yuya gasps his name and Declan leaps off "Armageddon" onto a platform and comments that he doesn't think Yuya will be able to do so easily as he activates "[[Dark Contract with the Insurance]]", allowing him to draw cards equal to the number of monsters he targeted for attacks but failed to destroy. He draws three cards, much to the shock of Tate, and Declan tells Yuya to watch his strongest portfolio as he activates the Spell Card "[[D/D/D Fusion]]", Fusion Summoning using an "Armageddon" and this card as material. He chants "Fusion Summon! Come before me! [[Level 10 Monster Cards|Level 10]]! [[D/D/D Super Doom King Purple Armageddon (anime)|D/D/D Super Doom King Purple Armageddon]]!" and a purple version of "Armageddon" appears, with wings resembling [[Nightshroud]]'s and a serpentine trunk resembling [[Zorc Necrophades]]', standing with [[3500 ATK Monster Cards|3500 ATK]]. Then Declan activates the Spell Card "[[D/D/D Synchro]]", treating it as a Level 2 Tuner and tuning it with another "Armageddon". He chants "Synchro Summon! Come before me! Level 10! [[D/D/D Super Doom King Bright Armageddon (anime)|D/D/D Super Doom King Bright Armageddon]]!" and a white version of "Armageddon" appears, heavily resembling [[Z-one]] and also standing on 3500 ATK. Next he activates the Spell Card "[[D/D/D Xyz]]", Special Summoning two "Armageddons" from his Extra Deck, then overlaying the two Level 8 "Armageddons", chanting "Xyz Summon! Come before me! Rank 8! [[D/D/D Super Doom King Dark Armageddon (annime)|D/D/D Super Doom King Dark Armageddon]]!" and a more demonic version of "Armageddon" appears that resembles the [[Barian Emblem]], standing with 3500 ATK like its fellow "Super Doom Kings". Declan also activates the effect of "Dark Armageddon", attaching his third "Armageddon" from his Extra Deck to it as an Overlay Unit.

Everyone gasps in shock at the sight of the three "Super Doom Kings" and Declan tells Yuya that he will have to break through this impregnable formation he has assembled if he wants to make him smile.

==VRAINS Episode 86 sections==
A transparent purple orb appears, and Playmaker and Ai turn to see Specter skidding down a rock slope. Playmaker recognizes him, and Ai asks why they're being shown Specter and wonders who is broadcasting the footage. As Specter looks around, Playmaker notes that this must be Lightning's doing, and Ai muses that he sees. Lightning's voice declares that he'll execute them one-by-one, and he and Jin appear before Specter. Ai snarls Lightning's name, and the watching Kolter gasps that it's Jin. 

<!--@Specter encounters Lightning and Jin.-->
As Jin approaches him, Specter muses that he never though that he'd meet Lightning in a place like this. Up above, Frog orders Pigeon to film this, film everything that Master Lightning does, and Pigeon sniffs miserably but he complies. Specter asks if everyone is all right, and Lightning states that they are for now; Specter is his first prey. Specter muses that he sees, and the watching Varis notes that they're going after Specter first. Genome tells Specter that they're counting on him, and Aso and Clarissa watch silently. Specter notes that if Lightning is following the same logic he demonstrated against [[The Shepherd]], then he's decided that Specter is the weakest member of their team. Lightning confirms that he has, and Specter comments that it's a bit unexpected and he asks Lightning to let him pull himself together. He claims that he just has to fulfill his mission; to defeat anyone who interferes with Master Varis. Lightning notes that Specter is a puppet who depends on Varis and gives up his free will, and that's why they're looking down on him. He clenches his fists as he claims that free will is most important, and the Ignis acquired it through trial and error and struggle. Specter lightly tells Lightning that he misunderstands; he hasn't given up his free will; he used it to choose to obey Varis. Lightning seems intrigued, and Specter comments that Lightning must have never had a difficult past, but that's natural seeing as he is only an A.I. Specter learned that he was weak through experience and the weak coexist with the strong to protect themselves. Lightning comments that this is the wisdom of the weak, and Specter confirms that it is; not everyone is strong and equality is only an ideal. Lightning states that A.I. can do that, and Specter asks if he's sure. Lightning narrows his eyes as Specter states that Lightning could do so if he was a normal A.I., but not if you have free will. They, like humans, will eventually start having silly power struggles, the fate of all creatures with free will. Lightning comments that he didn't expect Varis's minion to think a lot about A.I., and Specter states that he doesn't accept their existence, but he felt an emptiness form inside him when [[Earth (character)|the Ignis]] created from him vanished, and he remembers crying when Earth was dissected. Ai asks if Specter means Earth, and Playmaker notes that Specter sensed the loss of his Ignis; a part of himself. Ai asks if Playmaker just called him a part of himself, and Playmaker claims that he didn't. Specter admits that he couldn't help thinking about the Ignis, and he declares that he knows that Lightning's the mastermind behind the Ignis, and had he just stayed quietly in the [[Cyberse (world)|Cyberse]], that Ignis wouldn't have - "Wouldn't have vanished?" Lightning asks. Varis watches as Lightning claims that's incorrect; if they'd stayed quiet in the Cyberse, would the Knights of Hanoi have left them alone? No, they wouldn't have, and so the Ignis are fighting for their survival. The A.I. are the ones who will survive, and it's Lightning's mission to make happen. Specter respectively comments that it's hard for both of them, and Lightning declares that talking anymore is a waste of time. Specter agrees, and Lightning suggests that they begin. Yes, let's, Specter says politely, and they both call "Duel!"

<!--@Lightning activates "Judgment Arrows".-->
Lightning takes the first turn, Summoning "[[Armatos Legio Gladius]]" and activating its effect, adding "[[Armatos Colosseum]]" from his Deck to his hand. He then activates the [[Field Spell Card]], which bursts out of the ground around him and Specter. As Specter looks around, intrigued by the sight, Lightning explains that since he activated "Armatos Colosseum" he can add "[[Armatos Legio Speculata]]" from his Deck to his hand. He [[Summon chants in Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS|chants]] "Come forth! The circuit that guides the light!" and [[Link Material|sets]] "Gladius" to [[Link Summon]] the [[Link 1 Monster Cards|Link-1]] "[[Armatos Legio Decurion]]". He activates the effect of "Armatos Colosseum", sending a [[Level 4 Monster Cards|Level 4]] or lower "[[Armatos Legio]]" monster from his hand to his [[Graveyard]] to [[Special Summon]] a different one to the zone that "Decurion" points to in [[Defense Position]]. Lightning rises into the air as he sends "[[Armatos Legio Sica]]" from his hand to the Graveyard and Special Summons "Gladius" to the zone that "Decurion" points to. Then he activates the effect of "Speculata" from his hand, sending another "Armatos Legio" monster from his hand to the Graveyard ("[[Armatos Legio Scutum]]") to Special Summon "Speculata". He chants "Come forth again! The circuit that guides the light!" and sets "Gladius" and "Speculata" to Link Summon the [[Link 2 Monster Cards|Link-2]] "[[Armatos Legio Centurion]]". Ai notes that Lightning is expanding quickly. Lightning the activates the effect of "Armatos Colosseum" again, sending an "Armatos Legio" in his hand to the Graveyard to Special Summon "Gladius" and "Sica" to the zones that "Centurion" points to, and again he chants "Come forth! The circuit that guides the light!" and sets "Gladius" to Link Summon another Link-1 "Decurion". Specter smiles, and Lightning then chants "Appear! The three arrows that judge the world!" as he activates the [[Link Spell Card]], "[[Judgment Arrows]]". 

<!--@Lightning banishes three cards from his Deck to replenish his hand next turn.-->
Varis notes that "Judgment Arrows" has appeared, and he watches as Specter comments that Lightning is going all out with a Link Spell and four monsters, but now his hand is empty, so has he finished his preparations? Lightning replies that his turn isn't over yet, and he chants "Come forth! The circuit that guides the light!" He explains that the Summoning conditions are two "Armatos Legio" monsters, including a [[Link Monster]], and he sets "Sica" and "Centurion" to Link Summon the Link-2 "[[Armatos Legio Primi Ordines]]". He activates the effect of "Primi Ordines", Special Summoning a Level 4 or lower "Armatos Legio" monster from his Graveyard, reviving "Gladius". Once again, Lightning chants "Come forth! The circuit that guides the light!" and declares that the Summoning conditions are two "Armatos Legio" monsters, including a Link Monster as he sets "Gladius" and his second "Decurion" to Link Summon the Link-2 "[[Armatos Legio Pilus Prior]]". Lightning explains that when "Pilus Prior" is Link Summoned, he can [[banish]] a card from his Deck for every [[co-linked]] monster, and add them to his hand on his next turn. He banishes three cards - "[[Armatos Legio Galea]]", "[[Armatos Legio Magica Alcum]]", and "[[Armatos Lex]]", and then he activates the other effect of "Pilus Prior", Special Summoning a Level 4 or lower "Armatos Legio" monster from his Graveyard. He revives "Gladius" again, and Specter gasps in shock as he realizes what Lightning is planning to do. He comments that this is what Lightning was planning from the start. Lightning agrees, and for the final time he chants "Come forth! The circuit that guides the light!" He explains that the Summoning condition is a Level 4 or lower "Armatos Legio", and he sets "Gladius" to Link Summon a third Link-1 "Decurion". 

<!--@"Judgment Arrows" Extra Links Lightning's monsters together.-->
Varis realizes what has happened, and Playmaker declares that it's an [[Extra Link]]. Ai protests that it's impossible, but then he realizes - "Judgment Arrows" is connecting all of Lightning's Link Monsters. The five cards glow with a bright light, and Playmaker notes that both [[Extra Monster Zone]]s have been filled, effectively sealing away Specter's [[Extra Deck]] and preventing him from Link Summoning on his next turn. Blue Maiden notes that Specter's in trouble from the first turn, and Aqua adds that this is Lightning's true strength. Pigeon gasps that this is crazy, and Frog agrees; are they going to film Playmaker's team losing? Lightning ends his turn, and he comments that he's already analyzed Specter's Deck and determined that it's dangerous if he Summons a Link Monster, so he's crushed that possibility. But Specter is ecstatic, praising Lightning's Dueling tactics even though he's his enemy. To show Lightning his respect, Specter will defeat him with all his strength. Lightning asks if Specter thinks he can turn this battle around, and Specter confirms that he does. Aso notes that Specter's Deck relies on Link Monsters, so he can't win unless he breaks his opponent's Extra Link. Genome asks if there is a way to do that, and Clarissa states that they'll have to trust Specter.

Specter declares his turn and draws, then he Summons "[[Sunseed Genius Loci]]" and Special Summons "[[Sunseed Shadow]]" from his hand since he controls a [[Plant]] [[Normal Monster]]. He comments that he's assembled his monsters, but he can't Link Summon because the Extra Monster Zones are filled. Lightning declares that his data was correct; Specter's monsters with ATK are all in his Extra Deck and since the Extra Monster Zones are filled, Specter cannot Summon them. Lighting tells Specter to accept his defeat, but Specter refuses. He claims that he felt an affinity for Lightning after seeing his Duel against The Shepherd, much to Lightning's confusion. Specter claims that Lightning's Deck is structured similarly to his own as his most powerful card is "Judgment Arrows". Specter wishes that he had a card like that, but he doesn't. Lighting asks what Specter is trying to say, and Specter simply states "This."

<!--@"Sunvine Plunder" places "Judgment Arrows" on Specter's field.-->
He pays 800 [[LP]] to activate the [[Continuous Spell Card]] "[[Sunvine Plunder]]", allowing him to take control of a [[Spell Card]] Lightning controls. Vines emerge from "Sunvine Plunder" and ensnare "Judgment Arrows", moving it to Specter's side of the field. Lightning gasps "What?!" in shock, and Specter claims that this is how he does things; he steals what he doesn't have. The vines place "Judgment Arrows" and then disappear, and Varis praises Specter's idea. Ai asks if Specter seriously did that, and Playmaker comments that he sees; it's simple, but effective.

==VRAINS Episode 87 sections==
Specter activates the effect of "Thrasher" as it is linked with a "Sunavalon", increasing its ATK by 800 times its Link Rating. "Melias" is Link-3, so "Thrasher" gains 2400 ATK, bringing it up to 3200. Specter claims that he rewatched Varis and Playmaker's Duel at the [[Tower of Hanoi]] countless times, which was where he saw the Extra Link, a field that epitomized Link Summoning. It was beautiful, is there any field more beautiful? That sight was burned into his eyes, and now he's been able to create that perfect field with his own hands. He gasps in pleasure, and he tells the LIGHT Ignis that it's the only thing that he'll thank him for and Lightning scoffs. Specter activates the effect of "Sunseed Shadow" from his Graveyard, banishing it to target an Extra Linked Link-2 or lower Plant Link Monster. He targets "Daphne", and explains that he can Special Summon another copy of the targeted monster from his Extra Deck so that it is Extra Linked. Another "Daphne" erupts out of the ground, and Playmaker gasps in shock. Varis smiles in satisfaction, declaring that this is what even he couldn't accomplish: an Extra Link Full Mode. All seven of Specter's monsters are Extra Linked, and Ai gasps that Specter finally surpassed Varis. Specter chants "Appear again! The future circuit that lights up our path!" and declares that the Summoning conditions are at least two Plant monsters, setting "Dryas" and "Daphne" to Link Summon the Link-3 "[[Sunavalon Dryanome]]". "Dryas" swells into "Dryanome", and Lightning declares that Specter has brought out his ace monster.

Lightning furiously declares his turn and draws, and he rises into the air, asking Specter if he thinks that he's stupid. Does Specter think that Lightning didn't know that he would try to steal his "Judgment Arrows"? Specter flinches backwards in shock, and Lightning declares that he'll unleash divine judgment on this arrogant human. He chants "The sword of light that slices the heavens!" as he activates the Spell Card "[[Judgment Sword]]". When only Specter has Link Monsters in the Extra Monster Zone, Lightning can banish one of them and then Special Summon an "Armatos Legio" Link Monster from his Extra Deck with the same Link Rating, before Special Summoning the banished monster to Specter's Main Monster Zone. Specter gasps in shock, and a sword of lightning blasts out of the card as Lightning declares that he's banishing "Sunavalon Dryanome". The blade of lightning splits "Dryanome" down the middle and disintegrates it in an instant as Specter gapes in shock. Lightning comments that Specter's cherished mother tree might be invincible against attacks, but it isn't against effects. Specter furiously asks how dare Lightning do that to his mother tree and he warns Lightning that his field isn't broken yet as the smoke clears. Lightning then Special Summons "[[Armatos Legio Tribunus Militum]]", and the banished "Dryanome" is Special Summoned to Specter's Main Monster Zone. Then Lightning activates the effect of "Armatos Colosseum", sending the "[[Armatos Legio Magica Alcum]]" in his hand to the Graveyard to Special Summon "[[Armatos Legio Speculata]]", "[[Armatos Legio Gladius|Gladius]]" and "Sica" in Defense Position to the zones that "Tribunus Militum" points to. He chants "Come forth! The circuit that guides the light!" and declares that the Summoning conditions are at least three "Armatos Legio" monsters, setting "Scutum", "Spica", "Gladius" and "Speculata" and chanting "Appear! The commander that advances on the chaotic network battlefield! Link Summon! [[Link 4 Monster Cards|Link-4]] [[Armatos Legio Magnus Dux]]!"

"Magnus Dux" appears with 3000 ATK, and Ai gasps that it's huge. Playmaker observes that it's Lightning's Link-4 monster.

==VRAINS Episode 89 sections==
Windy comments that he's coming, and he declares his turn and draws, returning the banished "Stolastorm" to his field, and due to the effect of "Stormrider Blast", "Stolastorm" gains 700 ATK, rising to 2200. Windy backflips up onto Echo's head, and he raises his hand, declaring that it's getting exciting. Winds begin to blow and a Data Storm erupts from the sky and descends towards Windy as he explains that since he has 1000 or less LP, he can add a random Link Monster from the Data Storm to his Extra Deck. He activates his Skill, "Storm Access" and materializes a card in front of him. Flame is shocked by the notion of using a Skill during a Master Duel and he protests that's cheating. Windy cheerfully thanks him for the praise and then chants "Appear! The circuit that rages before me!" He declares that the Summoning conditions are at least two "Stormrider" Link Monsters and sets "Stolastorm" and the Link-3 "Bahamut Bomber" in the Link Arrows, and Soulburner is shocked that Windy is using "Bahamut Bomber" to Link Summon. Windy Link Summons the [[Link 4 Monster Cards|Link-4]] "[[Stormriderflagship Bahamut Bomber Custom]]", which gains ATK due to "Stormrider Blast", rising it from 3000 to 3700 ATK and Soulburner gasps the ATK value in shock, while Flame observes the new "Bahamut Bomber".

Soulburner admits that he can't use his Skill, and he declares his turn as flames light in his eyes, and he comments that he feels like a Burning Draw as he draws. He's drawn "[[Salamangreat Gazelle (anime)|Salamangreat Gazelle]]", and he and Flame are both pleased by his draw. Soulburner Summons "Salamangreat Gazelle" and activates its effect as it was Summoned, sending another "Salamangreat" monster from his Deck to his Graveyard except another "Gazelle". He sends "[[Salamangreat Spinny (anime)|Salamangreat Spinny]]" to his Graveyard and activates its own effect as he controls a different "Salamangreat" monster, Special Summoning "Spinny" from his Graveyard. Windy laughs, commenting that those cute monsters are nothing compared to "Bomber Custom". Soulburner comments that Windy won't be saying that later, and he holds up his Duel Disk, declaring that this is their new stage.

He [[Xyz Material|overlays]] the [[Level 3 Monster Cards|Level 3]] "Gazelle" and "Spinny", and Windy chokes "[[Xyz Summon|Xyz]]?" in shock. Soulburner uses his two monsters to build the [[Overlay Network]], creating his one from a burst of fire and chanting "Xyz Summon! The flaming wild horse that cuts through illusions! [[Rank 3 Monster Cards|Rank 3]] [[Salamangreat Miragestallio (anime)|Salamangreat Miragestallio]]!"

==VRAINS Episode 95 section==
Soulburner activates the Quick-Play Spell Card "[[Salamangreat Burning Shell (anieme)|Salamangreat Burning Shell]]", Special Summoning a "Salamangreat" monster form his hand with its effects negated. He Special Summons "[[Salamangreat Parro (anime)|Salamangreat Parro]]" and explains that the effect of "Burning Shell" will now allow him to Link Summon, and he chants "Appear! The circuit that changes the future!" setting "Salamangreat Parro" and the Link-3 "Heatleo" in the Link Arrows, Link Summoning the Link-4 "[[Salamangreat Pyro Phoenix (anime)|Salamangreat Pyro Phoenix]]" Bohman observes the Link-4, declaring that this is the power of Soulburner's friendship. As "Pyro Phoenix" settles in front of Soulburner, he explains that the monster Link Summoned by the effect of "Burning Shell" can't activate its effects or attack this turn. Bohman angrily asks what Soulburner is planning to do, and Soulburner declares that he's burning an even greater flame;the flame of his and Flame's souls. He activates another Quick-Play Spell Card, "[[Salamangreat Transcendence (anime)|Salamangreat Transcendence]]", using a "Salamangreat" monster he controls to Link Summon a "Salamangreat" Link Monster with the same name. Soulburner tells Flame "Here we go!" and as "Pyro Phoenix" flies towards the portal, Soulburner chants, "Phoenix! Throw yourself in the surging flames to awaken your immortal power! Super Reincarnation Link Summon! Be reborn, Link-4 Salamangreat Pyro Phoenix!" The Reincarnated "Pyro Phoenix" explodes with blue flames, and Playmaker takes note of the Super Reincarnation Link Summon, while even Bohman is shocked. Soulburner looks at his empty Duel Disk and he tells Flame to wait; with his new power, he'll make Flame's wish come true.

==VRAINS Episode 96 section==
Varis chants "Appear! The future circuit that lights up my path!" and declares that the Summoning conditions are at least three Effect Monsters, setting "Gateway Dragon", "Autorokket" and the Link-2 "Booster Dragon" in the Link Arrows, then chanting "My gate that slices open the closed world!" (as he chants, his monster is loaded from a hangar containing his other "[[Borrel]]" monsters) "Link Summon! Appear! Link-4 [[Borreload Dragon (anime)|Borreload Dragon]]!" As his ace monster roars, Varis slams his fist into his palm, telling Lightning to prepare himself; this noble monster will discipline him

==VRAINS Episode 97 sections==
Magnus Dux

Varis declares his turn and draws, then he activates the effect of his Field Spell "Boot Sector Launch" since his opponent controls more monsters than him, allowing him to Special Summon "Rokket" monsters from his Graveyard in Defense Position equal to the difference. He revives "[[Magnarokket Dragon (anime)|Magnarokket Dragon]]" and then Normal Summons "[[Estrangement Dragon]]" from his hand. Lightning asks if this is what Varis is doing; Summoning a weakling? He points out that since he has "Judgment Arrows", Varis will have to Summon a monster with at least 5000 ATK to defeat him. Varis retorts that he'll show Lightning the moment where humanity's Dueling surpasses his expectations, and he activates the effect of "Estrangement Dragon" since it was Summoned, allowing him to Special Summon another copy from his Deck to Lightning's side of the field in Attack Position. Lightning is shocked that Varis Summoned it to his field, and Varis explains that "Estrangement Dragon" can't be attacked if its controller controls another monster, and since it was Special Summoned by an effect, it will be sent to the Graveyard at the end of this turn. Ai wonders what Varis is planning to do, but Playmaker notes that Varis has two [[Level 4 Monster Cards|Level 4 monsters]], and he asks if it can be?

Varis [[Xyz Material|overlays]] the Level 4 "Estrangement Dragon" and "Magnarokket Dragon" to build the [[Overlay Network]], chanting "When two soaring, heroic roars merge into thunder, it opens the eternal door and shows its power! [[Xyz Summon]]! Appear, [[Rank 4 Monster Cards|Rank 4]] [[Borreload eXcharge Dragon (anime)|Borreload eXcharge Dragon]]!" The new "Borreload" appears with 3000 ATK, and Playmaker notes that Varis had a new trump card ready. Ai comments that Varis does the unexpected as usual, calling a Rank 4 with 3000 ATK crazy. Lightning chuckles at the sight of an [[Xyz Monster]], but claims that it's not enough to defeat him. Varis retorts that the fact that the LIGHT Ignis thinks so highly of himself proves that he's shallow. He activates the "Anti Enemy eXcharge" effect of "Borreload eXcharge Dragon", detaching an Overlay Unit to reduce the ATK of a monster by 600. He chooses "Magnus Dux", reducing it to 1900 ATK, and also allowing him to Special Summon a "[[Borrel]]" monster from his Graveyard. He revives "Borreload Dragon", and tells the LIGHT Ignis that he's coming. "Borreload eXcharge Dragon" attacks "Magnus Dux", and then Varis activates the "Anti Enemy Rokket" effect of "Borreload Dragon" to further reduce the ATK of "Magnus Dux" by 500, to 1400. Ai cheers that the ATK of "Magnus Dux" decreased again, and Lightning declares the effect of "Judgment Arrows", doubling the ATK of "Magnus Dux" to 2800. Varis states that it's still lower than the ATK of "eXcharge Dragon", and "eXcharge Dragon" attacks with "Borrel Cannon of Thunder", building up blue energy in its wing, body, and maw cannons and blasting it in a surge of light that obliterates "Magnus Dux" and reduces Lightning to 1500 LP. Ai celebrates Varis destroying "Magnus Dux", and Lightning growls in frustration.

[[File:ChimeraHydradriveDragrid-JP-Anime-VR-NC.png|thumb|250px|To everyone's utter shock, [[Bohman]] [[Link Summon]]s a [[Link 5 Monster Cards|Link-5]] monster - "[[Chimera Hydradrive Dragrid]]".]]
Bohman chants "Appear! The circuit that determines the truth!" and he declares that the Summoning conditions are five Link Monsters will different Attributes. Playmaker holds back a gasp of shock, and Ai protests that it can't be. Bohman sets "Grand", "Flow", "Alteration", "Coolant" and "Burn Hydradrive" and Link Summons a Link-5 monster, much to the shock of Playmaker and Ai, the three Commanders, and Zaizen and Ghost Gal. Four serpentine heads materialize from elemental twisters, and then two more from a beam of light and a final central one rises up as "[[Chimera Hydradrive Dragrid]]" appears with 4000 ATK. 

Ai asks if it's seriously a Link-5 monster, and Bohman activates the effect of "Chimera Hydradrive Dragrid"as it was Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, placing a [[Hydradrive Counter]] on it. The red cross on "Dragrid's" central head lights up, and Clarissa asks in shock if Bohman summoned a Link-5 monster. Aso comments that Bohman is easily leaping over the hurdles of LINK VRAINS, while Genome notes that a phenomenon occurs in LINK VRAINS every time Bohman performs an action, and he deduces that Bohman must be using people. Ai freaks out over Bohman Summoning a Link-5 monster, and he asks if this means that Bohman is better than they are.

[[File:PerfectronHydradriveDragon-JP-Anime-VR-NC.png|thumb|250px|[[Bohman]] [[Link Summon]]s yet another [[Link 5 Monster Cards|Link-5]] monsters, "[[Perfectron Hydradrive Dragon]]".]]
Bohman declares that he'll show why he said that Ai's sacrifice was pointless, and he activates his Skill. Playmaker gasps "What?" and up above them, the Neuron Link glows green again and begins to move. Aso protests that it's impossible; the Neuron Link was destroyed. Winds begin to whip up, and Playmaker gasps that it's a Data Storm. Bohman declares that this is his world, and he can use it as data to make up for shortcomings. The Data Storm erupts from the sky, catching Frog and Pigeon in its grasp before they can move and the log out with a scream as it swirls them round. Clarissa laments the return of the Neuron Link after they sacrificed so much to stop it. Playmaker steps forwards, protesting that Bohman will be destroying this world, but Bohman declares that it's a small price to pay to defeat Playmaker. The cross on Bohman's chest glows and he chants "Come! The new card created from my will! Master Storm Access!" and the Data Storm concentrates in his palm into a new card. He chants "Appear now! The circuit that determines the truth!" and sets "Chimera Hydradrive Dragid", declaring that the Summoning condition is at least one Link Monster, then chants "The embodiment of God carves a brand new history! Come forth, almighty dragon! Link Summon! Link-5 [[Perfectron Hydradrive Dragon]]!" It has 0 ATK, but Bohman activates its effect to place five Hydradrive Counters on it, and then it gains 1000 ATK for each. "Perfectron" increases to 5000 ATK, and Playmaker starts in shock. Clarissa is horrified that "Perfectron" has 5000 ATK, and Aso cries that this is bad; Bohman still has "Judgment Arrows" active. Genome adds that when Bohman deals damage, the ATK of "Perfection" will double and a single strike will be enough to defeat Playmaker.

==VRAINS Episode 102 sections==
Playmaker declares his turn and draws. Since he controls no monsters, he discards "[[Dotscaper (anime)|Dotscaper]]" to [[Special Summon]] "[[Threshold Borg (anime)|Threshold Borg]]" from his hand, and then he Special Summons "Dotscaper" from the Graveyard via its own effect since it was sent there. Next he activates the [[Continuous Spell Card]] "[[Cynet Codec (anime)|Cynet Codec]]", and then he [[Summon chants in Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS|chants]] "Appear! The circuit that leads to the future!", setting "Dotscaper" and "Threshold Borg" to [[Link Summon]] the [[Link 2 Monster Cards|Link-2]] "[[Code Talker (anime)|Code Talker]]". Playmaker explains that the effect of "Cynet Codec" will now activate, allowing him to add a [[Cyberse]] monster with the same [[Attribute]] as the "[[Code Talker (archetype)|Code Talker]]" he just Summoned from his Deck to his hand, and he adds "[[Micro Coder (anime)|Micro Coder]]", explaining that he can use it in his hand to Link Summon a "Code Talker" [[Link Monster]], so he chants "Appear again! The circuit that leads to the future" and sets "Micro Coder" and "Code Talker" to Link Summon the [[Link 3 Monster Cards|Link-3]] "[[Encode Talker (anime)|Encode Talker]]". Bohman smiles, observing that "Encode Talker" is still far weaker than "Perfectron". Ai snaps that their Duel is only just getting started, and Playmaker activates the effect of "Cynet Codec" again. Ai explains that this time they will add the [[LIGHT]] "[[Cyberse Gadget (anime)|Cyberse Gadget]]" from their Deck to their hand, and Playmaker also activates the effect of "Micro Coder" from the Graveyard as it was used to Link Summon, adding "[[Cynet Optimization (anime)|Cynet Optimization]]" from his Deck to his hand. Then he Summons "Cyberse Gadget", and via its effect, Special Summons a [[Level 2 Monster Cards|Level 2]] or lower monster from his Graveyard. He revives "Micro Coder", and then chants "Appear! The circuit that leads to the future!" again, setting "Encode Talker" and "Micro Coder" to Link Summon the Link-2 "[[Cyberse Witch (anime)|Cyberse Witch]]". Next Playmaker activates the effect of "[[SIMM Tablir (later anime)|SIMM Tablir]]" from his hand, adding "[[Clock Wyvern (anime)|Clock Wyvern]]" from his Graveyard to his hand, and then Special Summoning "SIMM Tablir" to the zone that "Cyberse Witch" points to. This activates the effect of "Cyberse Witch", allowing Playmaker to [[banish]] "[[Cynet Fusion (anime)|Cynet Fusion]]" from his Graveyard to add "[[Cynet Ritual (anime)|Cynet Ritual]]" and "[[Cyberse Magician (anime)|Cyberse Magician]]" from his Deck to his hand, and then the other effect of "Cyberse Witch" allows Playmaker to revive "[[Widget Kid (anime)|Widget Kid]]". Ai reminds Bohman that the effect of "Widget Kid" will allow them to Special Summon "Clock Wyvern" from their hand.

[[File:FirewallDragonDarkfluid-JP-Anime-VR-NC.png|thumb|250px|[[Yusaku Fujiki|Playmaker]] combines the powers of the other [[Ignis]], [[Link Summon]]ing his own [[Link 5 Monster Cards|Link-5]] monster - "[[Firewall Dragon Darkfluid (anime)|Firewall Dragon Darkfluid]]".]]
Then Playmaker activates the [[Ritual Spell Card]] "Cynet Ritual", [[Tribute|Tributing]] the [[Level 3 Monster Cards|Level 3]] "Widget Kid" and the [[Level 5 Monster Cards|Level 5]] "SIMM Tablir" to [[Ritual Summon]] "Cyberse Magician". Bohman muses on the Ritual Summon, and then Playmaker overlays the [[Level 4 Monster Cards|Level 4]] "Clock Wyvern" and "Cyberse Gadget" to build the [[Overlay Network]], [[Xyz Summon]]ing the [[Rank 4 Monster Cards|Rank 4]] "[[Firewall eXceed Dragon (anime)|Firewall eXceed Dragon]]". Bohman is shocked to see an Xyz Summon this time, but Playmaker immediately chants "Appear! The circuit that leads to the future!" and sets "Cyberse Witch" and "Firewall eXceed Dragon" to Link Summon the Link-3 "[[Transcode Talker (later anime)|Transcode Talker]]". Bohman is baffled that Playmaker would use his [[Xyz Monster]] to Link Summon, and he wonders just what Playmaker is trying to do with all of these repeated Summons. Playmaker retorts that it seems that Bohman can't hear the voices of everyone guiding him. Bohman is surprised at the notion of voices, and he looks around and wonders if it was because the Neuron Link was destroyed. Playmaker replies that it's not that; it's because Bohman has no desire to connect with others. The world that Bohman wants to create is a selfish one that steps on everyone's hearts, and no matter how many minds Bohman steals, without heart he'll never hear the voices that guide to the future. Bohman asks "My heart?" and he thinks of [[Harlan]]. Playmaker declares that he can hear everyone's voices yearning for peace, and he tells Bohman that he's coming. He activates the effect of the Continuous Spell Card "Cynet Codec", adding the [[EARTH]] "[[Code Generator (anime)|Code Generator]]" from his Deck to his hand, and then activating the Continuous Spell Card "Cynet Optimization", allowing him to Summon another Cyberse monster this turn, Summoning "Code Generator". Playmaker then chants "Appear! The circuit that leads to the future!" He declares that the Summoning conditions are at least three [[Effect Monster]], and he sets "Cyberse Magician", "Code Generator" and the Link-3 "Transcode Talker" in the [[Link Arrows]] to link the circuit - five Link Arrows worth of monsters. Bohman can only gasp "What?!" in shock as Playmaker chants "The mysterious power filling the universe! Rain on the miracle star and create infinite life!" As he chants, a droplet of water falls from the rusted skies of the ruins of the [[Cyberse (world)|Cyberse]], hitting the earth and causing an eruption of wind and then fire, and Playmaker chants "Link Summon! Appear, Link-5 [[Firewall Dragon Darkfluid (anime)|Firewall Dragon Darkfluid]]!" The Link-5 "[[Firewall (series)|Firewall]]" appears in a flash of rainbow light, embodying the elements of the other Ignis and standing at 3000 ATK.

<!--@"Firewall Dragon Darkfluid" prepares to attack.-->
Bohman protests that this is impossible; the only Link-5 monsters that exist are the ones that he created, so why does Playmaker have one? Ai furiously yells that this is the power that everyone entrusted to them. Bohman can only watch in shock as Playmaker activates the effect of "Darkfluid" as it was Link Summoned, placing a counter on it for every different kind of Cyberse [[Fusion Monster|Fusion]], [[Ritual Monster|Ritual]], [[Synchro Monster|Synchro]] and Xyz Monster in his Graveyard. He places four counters on "Darkfluid" and declares battle, ordering "Firewall Dragon Darkfluid" to attack "Perfectron Hydradrive Dragon". "Darkfluid" rises into the sky and spreads wings of purple energy diamonds as the green lines on its body turn red, and Bohman declares in satisfaction that it doesn't have enough ATK to destroy "Perfectron". Ai tells Bohman that he's wrong, and Playmaker explains that when it battles, "Darkfluid" will gain 2500 ATK for each counter on it, so it gains 10000 ATK, rising to 13000 ATK. "Darkfluid" attacks with "[[Attack and effect names in Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS|Neo Tempest Flame]]", breathing a stream of fire from its maw as the image of Flame rushes alongside the attack. Bphman declares that due to the effect of "Judgment Arrows", the ATK of "Perfectron" will double. "Perfectron" rises to 8000 ATK, and Bohman adds that the damage will become zero while "Perfectron" has a counter. Then he activates the effect of "Perfectron", removing a counter to prevent its destruction, causing an energy shield to intercept the flames. Playmaker points out that the ATK of "Perfectron" will decrease, and "Perfectron" falls to three Hydradrive Counters and 6000 ATK. So what? Bohman asks. He activates the effect of "Perfectron" since it battled, destroying all monsters Playmaker controls, and he declares that it all went to waste; "Darkfluid" is destroyed - 

<!--@The effect of "Darkfluid" negates the effect of "Perfectron".-->
No, that goes to waste, Playmaker tells Bohman. He activates the effect of "Darkfluid", removing a counter of his own to negate the activation of Bohman's monster's effect and allow "Darkfluid" to attack again. "Darkfluid" falls to three counters and 10500 ATK, and Playmaker orders it to attack "Perfection" again, this time generating a sphere of water between its claws as it attacks with "Neo Tempest Aqua", firing a beam of water from the sphere. Aqua appears to command the attack, and Bohman declares that the effect of "Perfectron" will prevent him from taking damage, and by removing a counter it won't be destroyed. The energy barrier appears again to block the beam of water, and Ai declares that now the ATK of "Perfectron" are even lower as it falls to two counters and 4000 ATK. Playmaker then activates the "Karma Gear" effect of "Darkfluid", which falls to two counters and 8000 ATK. Bohman gasps as he realizes what's happening, and Ai comments that Bohman finally noticed that he's fallen into a combo of destruction that he can't escape, and this is the power that his friends entrusted to him and Playmaker. Bohman grits his teeth, asking if Playmaker was able to instantly figure out the power of "Darkfluid" and perfect this combo. Playmaker replies that by bonding with others, humans can evolve beyond imagination. Everyone's voices guided him here, and that's the power of connection. He orders "Darkfluid" to attack again, this time with "Neo Tempest Earth", and "Darkfluid" corkscrews tail-first towards "Perfectron" as Earth appears to launch a flying kick. Bohman stubbornly activates the effect of "Perfectron" again, preventing its destruction. It loses a counter, coming down to one as the energy barrier intercepts "Darkfluid's" tail, and Ai reminds Bohman that the ATK of "Perfectron" decreases again. Playmaker declares "Karma Gear" as "Darkfluid" negates the destruction effect of "Perfectron", which falls to 2000 ATK as "Darkfluid" falls to one counter and 5500 ATK. "Darkfluid" attacks again with "Neo Tempest Windy", and it launches its wing spikes as Windy - with his normal purple eyes - appears to command them to fire blasts of wind. Bohman furiously yells that "Perfectron" won't be destroyed, and it removes its last counter, intercepting the wind blasts with its energy shield. Playmaker warns Bohman that it isn't over, and "Darkfluid" uses its last counter, returning to 3000 ATK as it roars at Bohman. 

<!--@Bohman is defeated.-->
Ai declares that now Bohman has no counters, so "Perfectron" has zero ATK and can't prevent its own destruction anymore. He tells Bohman to eat this; this attack will combine everyone's powers. "Darkfluid" rises into the air, its energy spikes expanding on a ring of data, and Playmaker orders "Firewall Dragon Darkfluid" to attack with "Neo Tempest End". "Darkfluid" fires a surge of rainbow energy from its maw that engulfs "Perfectron" and blows it and Bohman away, reducing Bohman's LP to zero. Bohman reflects that this is the Duel that Playmaker was going for. He thinks about what he can hear in his heart, as he remembers looking over the wind field in [[Windy's Cyberse]] with Harlan, who called him "big brother".

==VRAINS Episode 104 sections==
Ai declares his turn and draws, then activates the Field Spell "[[Ignister A.I.Land (anime)|Ignister A.I.Land]]", explaining that it allows him to [[Special Summon]] a [[Level 4 Monster Cards|Level 4]] or lower "[[@Ignister]]" monster from his hand while he controls no monsters in his [[Main Monster Zone]]s. He Special Summons "[[Pikari @Ignister (anime)|Pikari @Ignister]]", then [[Summon chants in Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS|chants]] "Appear! The circuit that guides the dark!" and [[Link Material|sets]] "Pikari" to [[Link Summon]] the [[Link 1 Monster Cards|Link-1]] "[[Linguriboh (anime)|Linguriboh]]", a darker and frowning version of "[[Linkuriboh (character)|Linkuriboh]]". Then as he has no monsters in his Main Monster Zones again, he activates the effect of "Ignisteer A.I.Land" and Special Summons "[[Bururu @Ignister (anime)|Bururu @Ignister]]" Next he [[Normal Summon]]s "[[Doyon @Ignister (anime)|Doyon @Ignister]]" and activates its effect, adding an "@Ignister" monster from his [[Graveyard]] to his hand, and he holds up "Pikari". Once again, Ai chants "Appear! The circuit that guides the dark!" and he explains that the Summoning conditions are three [[Cyberse]] monsters, including a [[DARK]] monster. He sets "Bururu", "Doyon" and "Linguriboh", chanting "The creation of dark shadows! The wisdom of dark night scatters throughout the world! Dance! Whirl! The maelstrom gathers in my hand to become the power of rising vigor! The abyss-" "That's too long bro!" Roboppi calls, and the music and Ai both stop short. "Surpass limitations! Link Summon! Appear, [[Link 3 Monster Cards|Link 3]] [[Dark Templar @Ignister (anime)|Dark Templar @Ignister]]!" Ai chants. Roboppi comments that Ai wrapped up a lot.

Ai activates the effect of "Ignister A.I.Land" for the third time, Special Summoning "Pikari" again. Then he activates the effect of "Dark Templar @Ignister" as a monster was Special Summoned to a zone that it points to, Special Summoning as many "@Ignister" monsters from his Graveyard as possible to zones that his [[Link Monster]] points to. He resurrects "Doyon" and "Bururu", and then [[Synchro Material|tunes]] the [[Level 3 Monster Cards|Level 3]] [[WIND]] "Bururu" with the Level 4 "Doyon", chanting "Chaos that roams the dark road! The gale that soars the blue sky will bring the path! [[Synchro Summon]]! Appear, [[Level 7 Monster Cards|Level 7]] [[Wind Pegasus @Ignister (anime)|Wind Pegasus @Ignister]]!" Roboppi tells him that he wrapped it up flawlessly this time, and Ai irritably tells him to stop commenting on everything. He activates the effect of "Bururu" from his Graveyard as it was used as Synchro Material for a Cyberse [[Synchro Monster]], Special Summoning the other Synchro Material from his Graveyard. He resurrects "Doyon" and triumphantly declares that he has two Level 4 monsters. He [[Xyz Material|overlays]] "Doyon" and the [[LIGHT]] "Pikari" to build the [[Overlay Network]], then chants "The supernatural! Earth-shattering! Awaken that power from eternal lamentation! [[Xyz Summon]]! Come! [[Rank 4 Monster Cards|Rank 4]]! [[Light Dragon @Ignister (anime)|Light Dragon @Ignister]]!" Queen smiles and comments on its 2300 ATK, declaring that it's not enough to defeat her given that "Golden Allure Queen" has 5000 ATK. Ai smirks as Queen tells him that he can't win with this formation, and Ai asks if she's sure.

==VRAINS Episode 119 sections==
<!--@Infobox image:The shot of Ai screaming after he realized he had to be erased form existence.-->
<!--@"Darkwight @Ignister" prepares to release its effect.-->
"[[Cyberse Quantum Dragon (anime)|Cyberse Quantum Dragon]]" releases its attack, and "[[The Arrival Cyberse @Ignister]]" counterattacks, blasting twin orbs of energy from its hands in a stream of crimson power that easily brushes aside the beam that "Quantum Dragon" fired. [[Ai]] yells that he's won, but [[Yusaku Fujiki|Playmaker]] activates the effect of "[[Exslayer]]"; once per turn when a [[Cyberse]] monster it points to battles, it can reduce the damage to zero. The counterattack strikes, destroying "Quantum Dragon", but leaving Playmaker's 3475 [[LP]] unharmed. Ai comments that Playmaker managed to survive, though "Quantum Dragon" was destroyed. He activates the effect of "[[Darkwight @Ignister]]" since Playmaker's monster was destroyed in battle, inflicting 500 damage to him. "Darkwight" generates a blue sphere of energy it its free palm and blasts it at Playmaker, sending him skidding backwards and reducing him to 2975 LP. He [[Set]]s a card and he ends his turn. Ai, his LP on 1100, comments that "The Arrival Cyberse @Ignister" is invincible. "The Arrival" currently stands at 11000 [[ATK]], and Ai notes that it's only a matter of time until Playmaker loses. Playmaker controls the 1000 ATK "Exslayer" and the 3500 ATK "[[Firewall eXceed Dragon (anime)|Firewall eXceed Dragon]]", and Ai notes that Playmaker wants to know what happened to him. He closes his eyes and declares that he'll tell Playmaker before this match ends, because he wants him to know everything about the true fate of the Ignis. Playmaker asks Ai what happened, and Ai explains that he went inside [[Bohman]] when they fought him for the last time. He recalls that [[Lightning]] told him that Ai didn't know the truth of the [[Ignis]], the real truth they'd reach. Playmaker repeats the term, and Ai explains that he went to investigate what it was - he went to Lightning's cave in the [[Cyberse (world)|Cyberse]].

<!--@Lightning's deteriorated copy appears to Ai.-->
He remembers finding the cave, only to be surrounded by data. As he asked what it was, Lightning's voice mused that he'd come and that if he had, he must have defeated Bohman, before an image of the [[LIGHT]] Ignis appeared. Ai initially flinched back, but he realized that Lightning was a deteriorated copy that could only convey messages and that Lightning had anticipated his defeat. Lightning had replied that of course he had, and Ai had asked what his motive was. The copy of Lightning had declared that it was its duty to show Ai the truth about the Ignis, and Ai had asked what truth Lightning meant. Lightning explained that he meant a simulation where Ai was the only survivor, much to Ai's shock. Lightning's copy had laughed at his surprise, telling him to observe what kind of A.I. he was and observe his various futures. Ai had destroyed the copy as it laughed at him, but then the data surrounding him had entered his mind. Ai admits that he thought the Ignis and humanity would be able to live together without Lightning, but the future said otherwise.

<!--@Ai sees the projected ruins of Den City during his simulations.-->
Ai remembers seeing [[Den City]] in ruins, and he explains that if he's the only survivor, his existence will lead to humanity's extinction. Playmaker asks "Your existence?" in utter shock, and he remembers Bohman telling them that by siding with humanity, Ai had closed the future of the Ignis with his own hands and that he'd hoped Ai wouldn't regret it. Ai sadly admits that this wouldn't have happened had another Ignis other than him or Lightning been the only survivor, and Lightning and Bohman knew this from the start, which was why they said that. Back then, Ai had to do whatever it took to save his friends. Playmaker protests that there was nothing Ai could have done, and there was no other way. Ai replies that he knows, and Playmaker insists that the simulation was Lightning's trap; he knew that if Ai saw it while he was in despair, his heart would fall into darkness, so he shouldn't worry about it. Ai smiles sadly, and he admits that he considered that possibility given that Lightning left the message before he fought them, so he re-entered his data and re-did the simulation, over and over.

<!--@Ai frantically banishes simulations as he tries to avert catastrophe.-->
But the result didn't change. He remembers seeing Den City destroyed in a massive explosion as Playmaker protests that there's no guarantee that the simulation will come true; it's just data. Ai replies that it's only data for Playmaker because he's a life form with a physical body, but Ai is data too, and a great simulation is like living a real life, and he lived that real future thousands of times. He'd banished his screens in fury and brought up another simulation, showing fire erupting form the streets of the city, and he recalls that he tested various ways to change the future as a squadron of planes flew over a city and bombed it, and in another, dark clouds covered the [[Earth (planet)|Earth]]. But the results didn't change, and he fell to his hands and knees and sobbed as he recalled that nothing could be done unless he was erased from existence, screaming in agony. Playmaker protests that Ai has the power to change it; he's a special Ignis, and he ''can'' live together with humans. He begs him to find a way to backtrack from this, and Ai asks in amusement if Playmaker is trying to pull him back. He thanks Playmaker, but tells him that he's wrong and he doesn't understand. Ai explains that he learned while everyone was gone that losing friends means that your heart breaks, and his did, causing him to lose self-control. He recalls that [[Roboppi]] immediately started looking down on humans after he gained free will, recalling Roboppi's Duels with [[Emma Bessho|Ghost Gal]] and The [[Shepherd]] and later [[Takeru Homura|Soulburner]], and he notes that it's normal for A.I. to do if one thinks about it - and the Ignis weren't normal. They're far superior to humans in memory and calculations and can instantly figure out their faults and contradictions, making it easy to become arrogant, something that is in the nature of an A.I. with free will. Something also awakened within Ai; not evil thoughts, but he wonders, in order for him to live, why does he have to adapt to humans? He now feels differently to humans. Playmaker whispers Ai's name, and Ai reminds him that he said humans didn't want sudden changes. But Ai can no longer stop his own changes, and he's scared that he may turn into someone like Bohman or Lightning, so he wants to vanish before that happens.

Playmaker asks that if losing a friend means your heart breaks, then is Ai trying to break Playmaker's? Ai huffs in amusement, sadly commenting on what a nice thing that was for Playmaker to say. Playmaker begs Ai to find a way to turn back, but Ai insists that there is none, and he apologizes for deciding that there's not backtracking.

<!--@"The Arrival" attacks.-->
Ai resolutely tells Playmaker that he's coming, and he's continuing the Duel. Playmaker yells Ai's name, but Ai ignores him, declaring his turn and drawing. He activates the effect of "The Arrival", destroying a monster and then [[Special Summon]]ing an "[[@Ignister Token]]" to a zone it points to. He declares that he's destroying "Exslayer", but Playmaker activates the effect of "[[Cyberse Synchron (later anime)|Cyberse Synchron]]" from his [[Graveyard]], [[banish]]ing it to prevent the destruction of "Exslayer" and preventing Ai from Special Summoning his [[Token monster]]. Ai grins, and he decides to battle in that case. "The Arrival" attacks "eXceed Dragon", and it materializes a large blade in its hand and raises it into the air, causing the six orbs on its rings to begin glowing. They project energy into the air at the tip of its blade, extending into a blade of energy. Ai orders the "[[Attack and effect names in Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS|Ultima Attribution]]" attack of "The Arrival", and "The Arrival" brings down its blade, sending an arc of energy through the air. Playmaker activates the effect of "Exslayer", reducing the battle damage to zero. That effect again? Ai asks, before noting that "eXceed Dragon" will still be destroyed. "eXceed Dragon" is struck by the attack and explodes, and Ai follows up with the effect of "Darkwight", inflicting 500 damage to Playmaker and reducing him to 2475 LP. Ai declares that now "eXceed Dragon" is gone, and he ends his turn, telling Playmaker to bring it on. 

[[File:BorreloadFuriousDragon-JP-Anime-VR-NC.png|thumb|left|250px|To [[Ai]]'s utter shock, [[Yusaku Fujiki|Playmaker]] [[Fusion Summon]]s "[[Borreload Furious Dragon (anime)|Borreload Furious Dragon]]".]]
Playmaker says Ai's name sadly, before getting a determined look, and he declares his turn and draws. He [[Link Material|uses]] "Exslayer" to [[Link Summon]] the [[Link 1 Monster Cards|Link-1]] "[[Linkross]]". Ai is surprised that Playmaker gave up the "Exslayer" he'd been using for defense, and Playmaker adds that he can also Special Summon "[[Link Token (anime)|Link Token]]s" equal to the [[Link Rating]] of the [[Link Monster]] he used as Link Material. Two "Link Tokens" appear, and then Playmaker summons "[[Metal Molephosis]]", explaining that when it is Summoned, he can change the "Link Tokens" to the [[Type]] and [[Attribute]] he specifies. He chooses to make them [[DARK]] [[Dragon]] monsters, much to Ai's confusion, and the crosses on the sides of the "Link Tokens" transform into small dragons. Playmaker then Link Summons again, setting "Metal Molephosis" and "Link Cross" to Link Summon the [[Link 2 Monster Cards|Link-2]] "[[Proxy F Magician]]". He activates its effect, since a [[Fusion Monster]] is either on the field or in the [[Graveyard]], allowing him to [[Fusion Summon]]. The spikes on "Proxy F Wizard's" staff open and the jewel at the tip glows, and as Playmaker [[Fusion Material|fuses]] the two "Link Tokens" he [[Summon chants in Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS|chants]] "The two forlorn anger that live in the network, surpass the root of evil and become one!" Ai is shocked that Playmaker is fusing Dragon monsters, and Playmaker chants "Fusion Summon! Appear, [[Borreload Furious Dragon (anime)|Borreload Furious Dragon]]!" The "Borreload" Fusion Monster appears with 3000 ATK, and Ai asks in shock why Playmaker has "Borreload". Then he realizes that [[Varis]] gave Playmaker the card, and he muses that he sees; this is the power of Playmaker's new friend.

<!--@"Firewall Dragon Darkfluid" places four counters.-->
Playmaker then activates the other effect of "Proxy F Magician", Special Summoning a monster with 1000 or less ATK from his hand. He Special Summons "[[L2 Cachevalier]]", then activates its effect to Special Summon a Link-2 Link Monster from his Graveyard with its effects negated, and he revives "Exslayer". Then he chants "Appear! The circuit that leads to the future!", and he sets "Exslayer", "L2 Cachevalier" and "Proxy F Magician", then he chants "The mysterious power filling the universe! Rain on the miracle star and create eternal life! Link Summon! Appear, [[Link 5 Monster Cards|Link-5]] [[Firewall Dragon Darkfluid (anime)|Firewall Dragon Darkfluid]]!" Ai looks up at the monster, noting that "Darkfluid" contained everyone's wishes, and now it's his enemy. He comments that it must be karma, and Playmaker insists that he'll use everyone's wishes to change Ai. The effect of "Darkfluid" activates, and as "[[Cyberse Magician (anime)|Cyberse Magician]]", "[[Cyberse Clock Dragon (later anime)|Clock Dragon]]", "Quantum Dragon" and "eXceed Dragon" are all shown, Playmaker places four [[counter]]s. Ai recalls that "Darkfluid" gains 2500 ATK for each counter, so it will be stronger than "The Arrival" and he'll lose if this attack gets through. He tells Playmaker to do it, and Playmaker says Ai's name. Ai tells Playmaker to make up his mind; he came to get them back, didn't he? He's everyone's hope, so he has to do it even if Ai is the opponent. Playmaker clenches his fist, but he declares battle, and "Darkfluid" attacks "The Arrival", powering up its wings. The ATK of "Darkfluid" then increases to 13000 as it attacks with "Neo Tempest", generating a sphere of dark energy in between its wings and blasting it at Ai.

<!--@"Borreload Furious Dragon" prepares to destroy "Judgment Arrows".-->
Ai tells Playmaker that's the spirit; it makes him happy, but he apologizes, as he doesn't plan on taking this attack. He activates the effect of "The Arrival", removing one counter to make it immune to Playamker's card effects this turn. Playmaker grimly notes that "The Arrival" is unaffected by other card effects anyway when it has a counter, and Ai agrees, adding that without a counter, that protection has vanished, and now only Playmaker's card effects don't affect "The Arrival" - meaning that "Judgment Arrows" can now affect it, doubling the ATK of "The Arrival" from 11000 to 22000. Ai comments that the attack of "Darkfluid" can't be stopped, and he declares that he's turned the tables. But Playmaker activates the effect of "Borreload Furious", destroying a monster he controls and a card that Ai controls. He destroys "Furious" itself and "Judgment Arrows", much to Ai's shock, and "Furious" flies into the [[Link Spell Card]], destroying them both. Ai realizes that "Furious" was intended to counter "Judgment Arrows", and he remembers that Varis has been the one most worried about "Judgment Arrows". He admits that he failed to anticipate this, and Playmaker reminds Ai that since "Judgment Arrows" left the field, all the monsters it pointed to are destroyed - in other words, "The Arrival" will be destroyed. 

Ai curses, realizing that this was Playmaker's plan from the start. He thinks that it wasn't bad, but activates the effect of "[[FA.I.ghting Spirit]]" from his Graveyard, banishing it to prevent "The Arrival" from being destroyed by battle or card effects this turn. Playmaker reminds Ai that with fewer cards on his field, the ATK of "The Arrival" decreases to 10000. The "Neo Tempest" attack approaches, and Ai smiles, reflecting again that he'll lose if this attack succeeds. He admits that he didn't think Playmaker would play this well and that he's truly become strong, but he won't win that easily. He activates the effect of "[[Wind Pegasus @Ignister (anime)|Wind Pegasus @Ignister]]" from his Graveyard since Playmaker destroyed a [[Spell Card|Spell]] or [[Trap Card]] this turn, banishing it to shuffle "Darkfluid" back to the Deck. Playmaker then activates the effect of "Darkfluid", removing a counter to negate the activation of the effect of Ai's monster, though as Ai notes, "Darkfluid" loses ATK, falling to 10500 ATK. The attack finally hits, slamming into a blue energy sphere protecting "The Arrival" and reducing Ai to 600 LP. Playmaker reminds him that the effect of "Darkfluid" will allow it to attack again, and it attacks with "Neo Tempest", this time blasting purple lightning from its arms at "The Arrival's" energy shield. Ai is pushed backwards as he falls to 100 LP, and Playmaker ends his turn, and the ATK of "Darkfluid" returns to normal. Ai admits that he's impressed; even though he has "The Arrival", Playmaker was still able to push him this hard, and he comments that it was unexpected.

<!--@Ai mockingly worries about the effect of "Darkfluid".-->
Once again he declares that he's coming, and he declares his turn and draws. He activates the effect of "The Arrival", placing a counter, but as the blue orb lights up Playmaker activates the effect of "Darkfluid", removing a counter to negate the effect of "The Arrival". Ai notes that of course Playmaker did, since "The Arrival" would have been unaffected by card effects if it had a counter. But he still has another effect, and he activates the effect of "The Arrival", destroying a monster to Special Summon an "@Ignister Token". Again, Playmaker counters with the "Karma Gear" effect of "Darkfluid", and Ai gasps that another effect was negated, and he worries about how he'll deal with "Darkfluid". But then he notes that "Darkfluid" only has one counter left, so it can only increase to 5500 ATK. Now's Ai's chance, and he explains that due to "Karma Gear" he can Special Summon this card; "[[Gatchiri @Ignister]]". With another card on the field, "The Arrival" gains 1000 ATK, increasing to 11000 ATK. He Sets a card, and "The Arrival" gains more ATK, rising to 12000. He declares that it's plenty, and he declares battle, ordering "The Arrival" to attack "Darkfluid", and its six orbs light up and it slashes an energy wave at "Darkfluid" with "Ultima Attribution". Playmaker activates the effect of "Darkfluid", increasing its ATK by 2500 per counter, to 5500, and Ai crows that it's not enough ATK and yells that it's over.

<!--@"Firewall Dragon Darkfluid" is destroyed. (the shot ''just'' before it's obscured in smoke, with the energy blade passing through its body.-->
But Playmaker sends "[[Transcode Talker (later anime)|Transcode Talker]]" from his [[Extra Deck]] to his Graveyard to activate the [[Quick-Play Spell Card]] "[[Link Pressure]]", increasing the ATK of "Darkfluid" by 1000 times its Link Rating. "Darkfluid" powers up to 10500 ATK, though Ai yells that "The Arrival" is still stronger and bids "Darkfluid" goodbye. "Ultima Attribution" hits, and "Darkfluid" is destroyed at last. The shockwave flings Playmaker off his feet with a cry, and he lands on his back before struggling to his feet, Avatar fizzing as his LP fall to 975. Then the effect of "Darkeight" activates, inflicting 500 damage to Playmaker. "Darkwight" tosses another blue energy sphere, this time blasting Playmaker to the edge of the Data Storm and reducing him to 475 LP. Ai then explains that since he destroyed "Darkfluid" in battle, he can Special Summon "[[Gussari @Ignister]]" from his hand, and "The Arrival" gains more ATK, rising to 13000. He ends his turn, and as Playmaker gets to his feet, Ai explains that when the Link Monster linked to "Gussari" destroys a monster by battle, Playmaker will take damage equal to that Link Monster's ATK. In other words, "The Arrival" has achieved its strongest form. He comments that he'll definitely end Playmaker next turn.

<!--@Ai offers to fuse with Playmaker.-->
Playmaker gets to his feet, panting Ai's name, but Ai doesn't respond. Playmaker bites back an expression of sorrow, and Ai turns to Playmaker and he asks him to come with him. Playmaker asks Ai what he means, and Ai extends his hand and he asks him to become one with him, to change his consciousness into data and fuse with him. Only Playmaker can stop him, and if they're one, lifespans won't matter. They should be able to create a different future than Bohman or Lightning, right? They can live in the network world for eternity. Playmaker whispers Ai's name, and Ai Playmaker's as they stare across the field at one another within the roiling Data Storm...
