When Bruno tells them they have to evacuate because of a bomb, Sherry reveals that the one that had exploded was only for the show and that there aren’t actually any bombs and that she’s responsible for this chaos.

Holy shit. HOLY SHIT. HOLY (@#%@#% SHIT!!! WHOA, WHAT AN EPISODE, LIKE – OH MY GOD…TALK ABOUT TENSIONS AND DEVELOPMENT!!!!! After a long dull Pre-WRGP arc, what a way to kick it back on track! That Z-ONE card is one hell of a mysterious thing considering it was considered ‘normal’ on the security anazylizer but sure enough, was releasing onimious energy that interfered with the weather conditions outside and destroyed the machine they were using. The biggest question of all: WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ROOM!? WHO THE HELL IS THAT?! Colbat blue eyes studying at the three of them, moreover ANAZLYING Yusei out of all people. Bruno too also had some effect from this as something scanned over him as well. Just who is Bruno? Is he even human?! After seeing his eyes glow like that, that’s definitely not normal. Moreover the bigger question is, how the hell did ‘it’ teleport the group far away from the security building?
As Yusei pointed out at the end of the episode – while he isn’t too sure about it yet, I think it’s clear Yliaster is playing a huge role in this. We also learned within this episode that Yeager has vanished from the Security and no one had heard of him in a while. So I wonder what happened to him as well.
Overall, VERY GOOD EPISODE. I got these chills running down my spine, and man – it blew my mind after several boring episodes from the Pre-WRGP Arc (excluding Crashtown). I cracked up so much when I saw Sherry’s dueldisk reveal a TAZOR, I was like, “OH MY GOD, HOW MUCH MORE DANGEROUS CAN THESE THINGS GET?!” Sherry by the way, was so badass this episode. I love it when the ladies act evil, it amuses me so much.
