Mai has 4000 [[LP|Life Points]] remaining and controls "The Unfriendly Amazon" (2000/1000) in Attack Position and one set card.
<u>'''Yami Marik's turn'''</u><br />
 
[[Set]]s a card and [[Normal Summon]]s "[[Makyura the Destructor]]" in [[Attack Position]] (1600 [[ATK]] / 1200 [[DEF]]). [[Activate]]s [[Equip Spell Card|Equip Magic Card]] "[[Black Pendant]]" and [[equip]]s it to "[[Makyura the Destructor]]" to its [[ATK]] by 500 ("[[Makyura the Destructor]]": 1600 → 2100 [[ATK]]). "[[Makyura the Destructor]]" [[attack]]s "[[The Unfriendly Amazon]]", but [[Mai Valentine|Mai]] [[activate]]s [[Normal Trap Card|Trap Card]] "[[Amazoness Archers|Amazon Archers]]" to decrease "[[Makyura the Destructor]]'s" [[ATK]] by 500 ("[[Makyura the Destructor]]": 2100 → 1600 [[ATK]]). (NOTE: In the OCG/TCG, "[[The Unfriendly Amazon]]" would not be a valid target for "[[Amazoness Archers]]") "[[Makyura the Destructor]]" is destroyed. ([[Yami Marik]]: 2350 → 1950 [[Life Points]]). "[[Black Pendant]]'s" [[Card effect|effect]] inflicts 500 points of [[Effect damage|damage]] to [[Mai Valentine|Mai]]'s [[Life Points]] when it's [[destroyed]] ([[Mai Valentine|Mai]]: 4000 → 3500 [[Life Points]]). During the turn that it's destroyed "[[Makyura the Destructor]]'s" [[Card effect|effect]] allows [[Yami Marik|Marik]] to [[activate]] [[Trap Card]]s from his [[hand]]. [[Activate]]s [[Normal Trap Card|Trap Card]] "[[Rope of Life]]", [[Special Summon]]ing "[[Makyura the Destructor]]" from the [[graveyard]] in [[Attack Position]] and increasing its [[ATK]] by 800 ("[[Makyura the Destructor]]": 1600 → 2400 [[ATK]]). "[[Makyura the Destructor]]" [[attack]]s then [[destroy]]s "[[The Unfriendly Amazon]]" ([[Mai Valentine|Mai]]: 3500 → 3100 [[Life Points]]).
 
   
  +
Yami Marik has 2350 Life Points remaining and controls no cards.
<u>'''Mai's turn'''</u><br />
 
[[Normal Summon]]s "[[Amazoness Chain Master|Amazon Chain Master]]" in [[Attack Position]] (1500 [[ATK]] / 1300 [[DEF]]). [[Set]]s a card.

+
<u>'''Turn 8: Yami Marik'''</u><br />
  +
Yami Marik draws. He then [[Set]]s a card and [[Normal Summon]]s "[[Makyura the Destructor (anime)|Makyura the Destructor]]" (1600/1200) in [[Attack Position]]. Yami Marik then [[Activate|activates]] "[[Black Pendant (anime)|Black Pendant]]", [[Equip|equipping]] it to "Makyura the Destructor" and increasing its [[ATK]] by 500 ("Makyura the Destructor": 1600 → 2100/1200). "Makyura the Destructor" [[attack]]s "[[The Unfriendly Amazon (anime)|The Unfriendly Amazon]]", but [[Mai Valentine|Mai]] activates her face-down "[[Amazon Archers (anime)|Amazon Archers]]", decreasing the ATK of "Makyura the Destructor" by 500 ("Makyura the Destructor": 2100 → 1600/1200). "The Unfriendly Amazon" destroys "Makyura the Destructor" ([[Yami Marik]] 2350 → 1950), causing Yami Marik to lose memories of [[Strings]]. Since "Black Pendant" was sent from the field to the Graveyard, its second effect activates, inflicting 500 damage to Mai (Mai 4000 → 3500).
[[Normal Summon]]s "[[Holding Arms]]" in [[Attack Position]] (500 [[ATK]] / 0 [[DEF]]). "[[Holding Arms]]" [[attack]]s "[[Amazoness Chain Master|Amazon Chain Master]]". Its [[Card effect|effect]] negates all [[Battle Damage]] from the [[attack]], prevents it from being [[destroyed by battle]], and prevents "[[Amazoness Chain Master|Amazon Chain Master]]" from [[attack]]ing during [[Mai Valentine|Mai]]'s next 3 [[turn]]s.
 
   
  +
Since "Makyura the Destructor" was sent to the Graveyard, its effect activates, allowing Yami Marik to activate Trap Cards from his hand this turn. Yami Marik then activates "[[Rope of Life (anime)|Rope of Life]]" from his hand in order to revive "Makyura the Destructor" in Attack Position with 800 more ATK (1600 → 2400/1200). "Makyura the Destructor" attacks and destroys "The Unfriendly Amazon" (Mai 3500 → 3100) causing her to lose her memories of [[Joey Wheeler|Joey]]. Yami Yugi uses the Millennium Puzzle to reach Mai and encourage her to keep fighting.
<u>'''Mai's turn'''</u><br />
 
[[Activate]]s [[Set]] [[Normal Spell Card|Magic Card]] "[[Grave Arm]]" to [[destroy]] "[[Amazoness Chain Master|Amazon Chain Master]]". This [[activate]]s its [[Card effect|effect]] (NOTE: The real effect activates only when the monster is destroyed by battle), allowing [[Mai Valentine|Mai]] to [[Cost|pay]] 1000 [[Life Points]] ([[Mai Valentine|Mai]]: 3100 → 2100 [[Life Points]]) (NOTE: The real [[Card effect|effect]] requires 1500 [[Life Points]]) to add a card from [[Yami Marik|Marik]]'s [[Main Deck|Deck]] to her hand. She takes "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (original)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]".

"[[Makyura the Destructor]]" is destroyed ([[Yami Marik]]: 1950 → 1050 [[Life Points]]), but decreasing a [[monster]]s [[ATK]] allowed [[Yami Marik|Marik]] to [[activate]] [[Normal Trap Card|Trap Card]] "[[Card of Last Will]]"; letting him [[Draw a card|draw]] 5 cards. "[[Makyura the Destructor]]'s" [[Card effect|effect]] allows [[Yami Marik]] to [[activate]] [[Continuous Trap Card]] "[[Nightmare Wheel]]". [[Mai Valentine|Mai]] [[activate]]s [[Normal Trap Card|Trap Card]] "[[Dramatic Rescue]]" to return "[[Amazoness Fighter|Amazon Fighter]]" to her [[hand]] and lets her [[Special Summon]] "[[Cyber Harpie Lady]]" in [[Attack Position]] (1800 [[ATK]] / 1300 [[DEF]]).

Due to the second effect of "Holding Arms", "Amazon Chain Master" can't attack for three turns. Also until Mai's third End Phase, "Holding Arms" can't attack or be destroyed. Mai then activates her face-down "[[Grave Arm]]" to destroy "Amazon Chain Master". This activates the effect of "Amazon Chain Master", allowing Mai to [[pay]] 1000 Life Points (Mai 3100 → 2100) and add "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (anime)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" from Marik's Deck to her hand. Since "Amazon Chain Master" has been removed from the field, the effect of "Holding Arms" is no longer in effect.

[[Activate]]s [[Normal Spell Card|Magic Card]] "[[Elegant Egotist]]" to [[Special Summon]] two more "[[Cyber Harpie Lady|Cyber Harpie Ladies]]". [[Tribute]]s all three to [[Normal Summon]] "[[The Winged Dragon of Ra (original)|The Winged Dragon of Ra]]" in [[Attack Position]].

"Amazon Fighter" destroys "Makyura the Destructor" (Yami Marik 1950 → 1050), causing Yami Marik to lose memories of [[Arkana]]. Since a monster's ATK got decreased, Yami Marik activates his face-down "[[Card of Last Will (anime)|Card of Last Will]]" to [[Draw a card|draw]] until he has five cards in his hand. The effect of "Makyura the Destructor" activates again.
  +
  +
Yami Marik then activates "[[Nightmare Wheel (season 2)|Nightmare Wheel]]" from his hand by targeting "Amazon Fighter".

Featured Duel: Mai Valentine vs. Yami Marik, Part 2

Duel continued from previous episode.

Mai has 4000 Life Points remaining and controls "The Unfriendly Amazon" (2000/1000) in Attack Position and one set card.

Yami Marik has 2350 Life Points remaining and controls no cards.

Turn 8: Yami Marik
Yami Marik draws. He then Sets a card and Normal Summons "Makyura the Destructor" (1600/1200) in Attack Position. Yami Marik then activates "Black Pendant", equipping it to "Makyura the Destructor" and increasing its ATK by 500 ("Makyura the Destructor": 1600 → 2100/1200). "Makyura the Destructor" attacks "The Unfriendly Amazon", but Mai activates her face-down "Amazon Archers", decreasing the ATK of "Makyura the Destructor" by 500 ("Makyura the Destructor": 2100 → 1600/1200). "The Unfriendly Amazon" destroys "Makyura the Destructor" (Yami Marik 2350 → 1950), causing Yami Marik to lose memories of Strings. Since "Black Pendant" was sent from the field to the Graveyard, its second effect activates, inflicting 500 damage to Mai (Mai 4000 → 3500).

Since "Makyura the Destructor" was sent to the Graveyard, its effect activates, allowing Yami Marik to activate Trap Cards from his hand this turn. Yami Marik then activates "Rope of Life" from his hand in order to revive "Makyura the Destructor" in Attack Position with 800 more ATK (1600 → 2400/1200). "Makyura the Destructor" attacks and destroys "The Unfriendly Amazon" (Mai 3500 → 3100) causing her to lose her memories of Joey. Yami Yugi uses the Millennium Puzzle to reach Mai and encourage her to keep fighting.

Turn 9: Mai
Mai draws. She then Normal Summons "Amazon Chain Master" (1500/1300) in Attack Position and Sets a card.

Turn 10: Yami Marik
Yami Marik draws "Holding Arms" and subsequently Normal Summons it (500/?) in Attack Position. "Holding Arms" attacks "Amazon Chain Master". Due to the former's effect, it is not destroyed and all Battle Damage from the attack is nullified. Due to the second effect of "Holding Arms", "Amazon Chain Master" can't attack for three turns. Also until Mai's third End Phase, "Holding Arms" can't attack or be destroyed. Mai then activates her face-down "Grave Arm" to destroy "Amazon Chain Master". This activates the effect of "Amazon Chain Master", allowing Mai to pay 1000 Life Points (Mai 3100 → 2100) and add "The Winged Dragon of Ra" from Marik's Deck to her hand. Since "Amazon Chain Master" has been removed from the field, the effect of "Holding Arms" is no longer in effect.

Turn 11: Mai
Mai draws. She then Sets two cards and Normal Summons "Amazon Fighter" (1500/1300) in Attack Position.

Turn 12: Yami Marik
Yami Marik draws. "Makyura the Destructor" attacks "Amazon Fighter", but Mai activates her face-down "Amazon Spellcaster" to switch the ATK of "Makyura the Destructor" and "Amazon Fighter" with each other ("Makyura the Destructor": 2400 → 1500/1200; "Amazoness Fighter": 1500 → 2400/1300). "Amazon Fighter" destroys "Makyura the Destructor" (Yami Marik 1950 → 1050), causing Yami Marik to lose memories of Arkana. Since a monster's ATK got decreased, Yami Marik activates his face-down "Card of Last Will" to draw until he has five cards in his hand. The effect of "Makyura the Destructor" activates again.

Yami Marik then activates "Nightmare Wheel" from his hand by targeting "Amazon Fighter". Now for every turn "Amazon Fighter" is on the field, "Nightmare Wheel" will inflict 500 damage to Mai. Mai then activates her face-down "Rescue Operation" to return "Amazon Fighter" to her hand and Special Summon "Cyber Harpie" (1800/1300) in Attack Position. Mai's hand contains "Amazon Fighter" and "The Winged Dragon of Ra".

Turn 13: Mai
Mai draws "Graceful Charity" and subsequently activates it to draw three cards and discard two. Mai's hand contains "The Winged Dragon of Ra", "Gravity Bind", and "Elegant Egotist". Mai then activates "Elegant Egotist" to transform "Cyber Harpie Lady" into the "Harpie Lady Sisters" (1800/1300 for each). Mai then Tributes all three "Harpie Lady Sisters" to Normal Summon "The Winged Dragon of Ra" in Attack Position. However, it gets locked in a sphere of light, and she cannot use it because she cannot read the ancient text on the card.

Duel concludes next episode.

  • A glow is added to the arrows sticking out of the legs of "Makyura".
  • A glow is added to Strings as he disappears from Marik's memory.
  • In the dub, Mai's flashback shows she was constantly moving as a child with her parents having hardly any time for her. In the original, she was living alone in her home since her parents died when she was quite young.
  • Parts of the flashback showing Mai's old job are cut.
  • The six-pack abs of "Amazoness Chainmaster" are covered.
  • The chains pulling the hands of "Amazoness Chainmaster" are cut.
  • A scene where Mokuba asks Kaiba why "Holding Arms" wasn't destroyed and Kaiba answering that it must have some sort of effect is cut.
  • A scene where Marik explains that "Holding Arms'" attack is very vicious, while "Amazoness Chainmaster" is tortured by the monster as Mai looks on is cut.
  • A scene where Joey celebrates Mai's capture of the God card is cut.
  • The cross on "Card of Last Will" has been changed to a round headstone.

  • Mai's skirt has been lengthened.
  • The words "TO BE CONTINUED" are added to the end of the episode.

Errors

  • Yami Marik's hand was empty when he activated "Card of Last Will" which is why he drew five cards, but he conducted his Draw Phase on that same turn, so he should have drawn only four cards.
