Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 110

The Three Emperors of Yliaster is the one-hundredth and tenth episode of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's.

Episode summary::[[Yusei finally succeeds at Accel Synchro Summoning "Shooting Star Dragon", and begins his counter offensive against Placido's dreaded "Machine Emperor". Against the Machine Emperor with the seemingly unbreakable iron-clad defenses, the amazing Monster Effect of "Shooting Star Dragon" is put to good use.]]

When Yusei defeats Placido, Placido crashes with his duel runner in pieces.

In front of Yusei, who just beat Placido, Jose and Lucciano appear, telling Yusei their purpose in this world, and about the purpose of the chaos that the WRGP became trapped in. He also announce that he will participate on WRGP. At the end of Jose and Lucciano's explanation Jose's own tablet finally appears, the third Machine Emperor, Grannel.

Yusei vs. Placido

 * ...continued from previous episode.

Placido's Turn

Still his turn from the previous episode, Placido attempts to use the effect of Speed World 2 to destroy Shooting Star Dragon. However, Yusei removes Shooting Star Dragon from the field to negate "Machine Emperor" next attack, dodging Speed World 2's effect. Placido ends his turn, Shooting Star Dragon returns as per its effect.

(Note: The anime version of Shooting Star Dragon does not reflect its real life counterpart, whereas it creates a state and removing the card from play is a cost which can also be used to "dodge" actions.)

Yusei's Turn

Yusei activates the effect of Shooting Star Dragon, and checks the top five cards on his deck. They are Junk Synchron, Nitro Synchron, Debris Dragon, Effect Veiler and Hyper Synchron. Because all five are Tuners, this gives Shooting Star Dragon five attacks. Yusei attacks Wisel Top 3, but the effect of Skiel Carrier 5 negates the attack. Yusei attacks again, this time the effect of Wisel Guard 3 activates, redirecting the attack to it and causing no damage. Yusei attacks Wisel Guard 3, and it is destroyed. The last two attacks are directed at Wisel Attack 3 (Placido's LP: 1800 → 100) and Skiel Carrier 5 (Placido's LP: 100 → 0) respectively.

Yusei wins.

Trivia

 * Machine Emperor Grannel Infinity premieres in this episode, but it also revealed in full color in the opening of the show (versus being silhouetted in previous versions) starting with this same episode. This means that he is revealed in the opening before he could even premiere in the show itself and thus spoiling his own premiere (because revealing him there would suggest he was going to appear soon, which he did, when normally they will not appear in the opening until AFTER they premiere in the show itself just like Stardust Dragon and Shooting Star Dragon did).
