Talking Yugioh: Crazy 8's Podcast EPs 115 - Kuai-Dueling in the Dark

[@silversoul2770]

The best girl in Sevens was Luke. Let's be honest.

[@brunosanto3488]

(Live Otes Reaction: GO RUSH - Episode 114 and 115) Otes: Damn! This is your fault, Yuga! This wouldn't have happened if I had chosen Roa as "The Chosen One"... Otes: At least I'm glad I have an imitator who likes me and wants to be me. I predicted well that Kuaidul would be the one to lend a helping hand to Yudias. I mean, the updated Opening 3, the reprint of Praime cards, and the fact that they confirmed that the Velgearians were in Dark Matter Space gave enough reasons for the yellow Yudias to appear. My other option was Yuga (and several thought that it would be Zwijo who would help Yudias, being the most predictable option) About Kuaidul, his "Beware of the Ohdos" line at the end did end up being relevant to what happened with Yuamu and Yuhi in this Episode. Likewise, I do not believe that Kuaidul was resurrected per se like other Velgearians: rather his soul merged with Yudias and controlled his body (Kuaidul himself mentions in the Episode that he is the Darkness that is inside Yudias) Something curious to note about Yuamu is that when the group asked her about her powers, she mentions a phrase that basically means "I told you some facts, but I'm not going to tell you everything". I wouldn't be surprised if Yuamu is hiding details (she already did it like what happened with Yuhi in Rovian Arc). In fact, they haven't yet explained how Yuamu obtained Contact Fusion and I would be surprised if that detail is linked to some secret that Yuamu is hiding. Either way, Yuamu's wish now is to clear those memories and ties with friends/family to become Otes: something only Monster Reborn could do.

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

If Otes chose Roa, it would be Rovian doing this.

[@kuricat16]

Otes is yuhi: he takes on the role so yuamu doesn't have to

[@SashGirl34]

I very much thought that too. We know the Otes we see is a guy.....and to me strongly hinted more Yuamu is the direct ancestor of Yuga. Even his personality you see Yuamu traits such her intelligence...even right down to her temper tantrum. And she has a motherly ancestral instinct and care for her descendant....unlike Yuhi.

[@brunosanto3488]

About the next Episode (which will be after a week), in addition to the rematch between Yuhi and Zwijo, I guess we will also see a conversation between Yuhi and Zwijo about why they are following Yuamu. I can see Yuhi being angry with Zwijo since the latter didn't bother to leave Yudias behind and hasn't done anything to stop his sister from becoming what she is now. Either way, I have a feeling that Yuhi will lose the Duel and Zwijo will then tell him his position on why he is following Yuamu and the Dark Matter Empire. About the next Arc, it seems that it will be a direct continuation of this Arc: where the Dark Matter Empire heads to Earth and Mutsuba Town prepares for battle. Seeing packs that are coming for Rush Duels and reprints that Konami is releasing lately, I feel that it is highly likely that we will see a Duel for the following Characters: Asaka, Rovian and Phaser. - Asaka: A couple of her cards were reprinted in Rush Duels and she received new support. She is also the President of Mutsuba Town, so it makes sense that she would Duel in the next Arc. As if that were not enough, Asaka also has a connection with Yuamu thanks to her Duel at the beginning of Season 2. - Rovian: Many cards for her Deck were reprinted, indicating that her Deck will receive future support. She is the leader of the Rovian Bandits, so it makes sense for her to participate in the battle. However, I feel that, instead of Yuamu, Rovian will Duel one of the Darkmen. - Phaser: Recent support for Sea Serpent reveals that these cards are intended to be used in the Anime according to numerical position. Because of the Artwork, they fit better with Phaser's Deck than with Tremolo's Deck. This makes sense since Phaser is the direct boss of MIK, being the organization that will surely be at the forefront in the battle. Additionally, like Asaka, Phaser already has experience with Yuamu due to a Duel that they had in Season 2 (in fact, of all the Duelists in Mutsuba Town, Phaser is the only one with the ability to beat Yuamu or someone like Zwijo) I can also see other Characters appearing to confront the Dark Matter Empire: examples, Ranran, Tremolo, Yuna and even Manya (Yuamu's childhood friend). The regenerated Fukamura could also appear to confront his Darkmen colleagues. I'm more curious about Yuna since she is in a similar state to Yuamu: she feels pity, empathy and sadness for Yuga. In fact, I can see a Yuamu vs Yuna Duel where the would-be Otes tells Yuna that she join the Dark Matter Empire so that together they can commemorate Yuga.

[@SashGirl34]

I feel being Yuamu as the antagonist role. She's going to get a bunch of big wins. As it's Yuudias and/or Yuhi that will stop her. And I REALLY want to see Phaser lose to Yuamu.

[@anthonythomas305]

Yuamu as the villain nailed it 👍🏾

[@dylanpeddle6859]

I'd say the best girls in Sevens were Romin, Mimi, Asana, Tiger and Yuka. I like the Ko girls and Nanaho but definitely wish we got to know more about them and see more of them.

[@SashGirl34]

Yuga's traits seem to remind me of Yuamu and Yuudias. Yuudias courage and instinct but lack of situational understanding and Yuamu brain and smart but slight clumsiness. Also her tamper tantrums we saw last episode. In theory. It just felt he's a combination of both of them. Which would make sense if he were their descendant. LOL. Sorry can't help it. It's just in my nature to think about shippy stuff. I am a romantic at heart. Even if nothing's there. It's my happy place.

[@SpecsTube]

I love this arc ending. I scored 6-4 on my duel predictions for this arc just like Arc 6. It’s so fitting as I kept making comparisons with Arc 6 throughout this arc including how similar both arc endings were.

[@psychicmaster92]

I'm just going to say a few things now. 1 - I still believe Yuhi is Otes. 2 - As I've said before, the time gap between GO Rush & Sevens is, at the most, 50-60 years. So any kid or teenager alive during GO Rush has a chance of being Otes in the future. 3 - I believe Kuidul is responsible for the creation of the Dark Matter Space. Logically, the deceased Velgerians forming a barrier for that space couldn't have happened naturally. Of my theory is right, Kuaidul will show his villain side again in the upcoming arc. 4 - Assuming Yuga didn't return to the future, he's guaranteed to show up next arc. 5 - I don't see us getting 3 Yudias VS Yuamu Arc Finale Duels. So either the next Arc Finale Duel is a Yuhi & Yuamu Tag Duel, or it's Yudias VS Yuhi. 6 - I really hope we see Kuyamuya's human form next Arc. I've been curious what Yuamu's first born daughter looks like. PS - I don't think Yuamu will go through with her memory wipe plan.

[@brunosanto3488]

I'm also curious about Kuyamuya's humanoid form. Besides being a girl, she could have a Duel in the next Arc since there is still a Level 5 Dark Matter Monster missing that has not yet been presented in the Anime: Dark Matter String.

[@leonport1181]

How do we know the time between the series is only 50-60 years, the narrative treats it like it's the far far future

[@christopherb501]

38:20 So does it mean "Otes" had a voice synthesizer the whole time...is "she" just really good with voices...does she transition...what's going on here...

[@brunosanto3488]

I mean, it's not unreasonable to think that Yuamu alters her voice to appear to be someone else (Dark Meister's voice is very different from Yuamu's)

[@psychicmaster92]

Yuamu said "I will become the new Otes" during the episode, so they've already confirmed she's not the Otes that appears during Sevens. I'm sure the true Otes will appear later on in GO Rush.

[@christopherb501]

​@@psychicmaster92 I'm speaking within the theory that she _is_ him. There's of course only a slim chance if that turning out to be the case; it's more likely _she's_ the mystery astronaut at the end of Sevens than that.

[@psychicmaster92]

Assuming that duel counts as a Yudias win, here's my current score. Score - W-58, L-21 I'll wait till next week before I make my next pick.

[@jehmarxx]

Otes could well really be an android, controlled by another person.

[@jude4195]

I still believe Otes is Yuhi because blue tooth is ace monster and how Otes acts is much close to Yuhi than her so that's where my bet is

[@SashGirl34]

And Yuga acts more like Yuamu in personality. Even right down to the same temper tantrum. The fact Yuamu has a more motherly ancestral instinct towards her descendant. While Yuhi is distrustful...and no protectiveness towards him.

[@SashGirl34]

Also agree on the Yuhi stuff. It makes so much sense.

[@brunosanto3488]

Finally, I also want to comment on the theories and ideas about Yuga and Otes. I also think that Yuga will return in some way to GO RUSH perhaps to address the issue of Yuamu's desire to be Otes. Interestingly, Fukamura could be a key to bringing Yuga back (or helping Yudias's group find him) I think we'll see Otes physically in GO RUSH, but I don't think he's actually the Final Villain (but he could be behind the Final Villain). In fact, I can see Otes appear as a Hologram where he contacts Yudias, Yuga or Yuamu. In any case, I want to add that it is not unreasonable that Otes (or some variant of Otes) is behind preparing the ground for Yuamu to acquire her powers and want to become Otes. It must be remembered that Kuaidul was influenced by The Relic since the hatred towards the Ohdo came from the same object. In any case, if Yuamu wants to be Otes in her own right, she has to repair or rebuild The Relic and I think that will be a key piece for the return of OG Otes. I also do not rule out a Tag Duel with Yudias and Yuga against Yuamu (already assuming the role of Otes and even calling herself Otes) PS: It is curious that both sides/groups are fighting for the existence of a race: Velgearians vs Darkmen. However, SEVENS could have already revealed that neither of the two races would survive in the end: neither the Velgearians nor the Darkmen (both races do not exist in SEVENS, just as there is no presence of Aliens in Goha City despite the fact that UTS does exist)

[@jehmarxx]

YUAMU WITHOUT GLASSES. 💜🎀

[@SashGirl34]

I also ship Yuamu/Yuudias...as it's hinted that some of the aliens are ancestors to characters of Sevens. And Yuudias would be so cool to be Yuga's ancestor too. And nothing went with that whole Zwijo thing. There are many reasons besides romantic as well. It's just our way of seeing it. I want to see. Like Velegerians may not even fully understand romantic love for all we know. And I find it easier to think he can be bisexual. So he can go either way.

[@YuaandAsa]

I don't know if this is selfish or not, but I don't want Yuamu to be a villain. Maybe she can be a villain for half a season and then move on to someone else, I guess so, I still want her to continue to accompany her. With Yudias and Yuhi, I still believe that she is not a villain because the opening scene where Yuhi flies to save her still gives me such selfish hope.

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

I don't think she's going to end the series as a villain, and she's at least a sympathetic one. I do want her villain arc to be substantial before she is redeemed, though.

[@psychicmaster92]

I'm just posting 6 possible duels we could see in the upcoming arc. I'll list them from most likely to least likely. 1 - Asaka VS Yuna 2 - Zwijo VS Phaser 3 - Yuamu VS Tremolo 4 - CPT VS Mitsuko 5 - Zeyet VS Ranran 6 - Kuyamuya VS Kuaidul

[@brunosanto3488]

According to information in Rush Duel's packages, everything seems to indicate that Rovian will also have a Duel. Both Asaka and Phaser are obvious choices to Duel. I also think that every Yuamu's Darkmen will have at least one Duel against someone from Mutsuba Town. - It might sound funny, but I can see Bruyea facing Ranran, Asaka or Rovian (Tamako Kago would even be funny) - Sabyuas could face Zaion/Asaka or someone like London or Mitsuko (Mitsuko on the topic of admiration towards Zwijo) - Zeyet is the one I have my doubts about who could be a good matchup. I have Manya, Chupataro/George Jersey or Tremolo as options. Yuamu is the one who has many options to choose from: Manya, Asaka, Yuna, Tazaki, Tremolo and Phaser. I feel like the strongest options for her are Yuna and Phaser. From there, it is followed by Tazaki (to give emotional weight) and Tremolo (as personal revenge)

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

Yuamu beating Phaser would be a great role reversal rematch, and another super big win to set her up like when she beat Zwijo.

[@jobejacobs62]

YuGiOh Sevens was the decline of YGO. The shows, Duel Links, Master Duel, the TCG, the OCG, the playerbase, etc have fallen off badly. There is no disguise for it. Worse decline YGO has seen in years. Konami does not know its playerbase or fanbase. Knew it would happen when Dark Magician failed to get proper support.

[@brunosanto3488]

Nah. I would say that Yu-Gi-Oh already had a problem since the appearance of the Pendulum Monsters: where Yu-Gi-Oh was also going to die. Not to mention that many people still think that Link Monsters were a mistake and those were introduced in VRAINS (long before SEVENS existed) Not to mention that Master Duel was created during the SEVENS broadcast and we all knew it was going to go the OCG route (which had its own problems before the arrival of Rush Duels) TCG has always been a problem and Konami never tried to hide it. In any case, it would be a serious problem with the powercreep that OCG was suffering from since VRAINS (or Arc-V for some). The high prices of some cards is due to poor management and the fact that they want to explore DM nostalgia. Not to mention that SEVENS has an alternate format that does not affect OCG/TCG products (If we had had another Master Duel's Anime we would have had another new Mechanic: which would make Yu-Gi-Oh much more complicated than it already is) But hey, let's blame Rush Duels for anything when there is no evidence that they have done anything wrong (in fact, if Rush Duels had been a failure, they would have closed it a long time ago, but it has only been growing in popularity in Japan)
