Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 109

'''Accel Synchro! Be Born, Shooting Star Dragon''' is the one-hundredth and ninth episode of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's.

Yusei and Placido's battle continues. Yusei's Stardust Dragon has been absorbed by Placido's monster, after losing his concentration by Placido's taunting while attempting to perform Accel Synchro. As long as his stolen Stardust Dragon is not recaptured, Yusei cannot possibly defeat the Machine Emperor. Yusei is in agony as he fights desperately to the very limits of his strength, transmitting his pain to Jack, Luna, and Crow. Trial and Error occur over and over. When he finally gets back Stardust Dragon, Yusei is completely desperate. However, at this time, a huge tornado envelops New Domino City, Stardust, and even Yusei. In the midst of a desperate situation and barely hanging onto the escape stairway, Akiza, not relying on her psychic powers, tries to save Haruka who was pulled out the windows by the tornado's gale forces.

Trivia

 * For what is now only the second time in the Yu-Gi-Oh series anime history, a new insert song was used called  "Clear Mind"  and it plays during the sequence before and during the summoning of Shooting Star Dragon all the way up until the end credits. This is also the third time the genre's history that a insert song was used at all.
