Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 107

'''Wake Up!! Unwavering Standpoint - Clear Mind''' is the one-hundred and seventh episode of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's.

Episode summary::[[Placido, one of the Directors of Sector Security, was responsible for controlling the Ghost armies known as "Diablo". His true motive being that of speeding up the Infinity Circuit's completion through a rapid fire series of duels. Meanwhile, just like Mizoguchi, Sherry was also defeated by the Ghost Army. The Diablo finally catch up to Yusei. However at the time, Dark Glass appears before Yusei, who sees nothing but defeat. Yusei accelerates to follow him. However, Placido, who is burning with such rage, finally comes after both of them.]]

Bruno is shown at the beginning of the episode trying to follow Yusei on his duel wheel. However, it is nowhere near powerful enough to carry out the task. Finally snapping out of his amnesia, he turns into Dark Glass and summons Delta Eagle from the ocean using his powers. He then transforms into his full Dark Glass suit and accelerates to catch up with Yusei. Placido eventually does the same by getting into his suit via his own powers and his duel wheel comes to him from nowhere. He catches up to the two, and challenges Yusei. Bruno knocks him back, leaving Yusei to get Shooting Star Dragon.

After Yusei accelerates to where Shooting Star Dragon's stone tablet lands, Bruno challenges Placido, leaving Yusei enough time to receive it. Jose and Luciano see all of this. Placido summons out his ace, Wisel, and when Bruno begins making a comeback, Placido calls forth Diablo.

After receiving a blank Synchro monster card from "Z-ONE", Yusei comes back to assist Bruno, who is about to be defeated by Placido and his Ghost Army. Yusei drives through all 5 Ghosts and challenges Placido. Placido, despite warnings from Jose and Lucciano, accepts. Placido uses his sword to transform his Duel Runner and merge with it while dueling against Yusei. It also revealed that Placido may be a cyborg.

Trivia

 * The scene where Bruno jumps up, calls Delta Eagle, and transforms into Dark Glass made a reference to Kamen Rider and similar series. BRUNO RIDER!


 * This is one of the few episodes that has no "review" or continuation of the previous episode, instead time-lapsing forward from where the previous episode left off. While the previous episode ended with Yusei in control of Road Warrior, this one starts with Road Warrior already gone and half of his Life Points from the previous episode have already been reduced. The obvious assumption is that Road Warrior was destroyed with the same tactic used previously in the prior episode followed up with a series of direct attacks and counter-techniques (hence not losing the full 4000 Life Points the way Sherry did).
