I am sorry about this. Certain circumstances on our side caused us to request that you lose on purpose.

And now, with us imposing on you, requesting that you fight again, like this...

No, it's all right. The matter is unavoidable.

I understand that dealing with any sort of situation is all a part of our jobs as assassins.

Your dueling style involves being cool and composed right down to the very wire.

And there is a certain duelist that we would appreciate you saving using those abilities.

Well, we shall see.

No matter how far we are apart, I'll still go on.

I'm going to engrave it even deeper.

So, don't be afraid of getting hurt and...

Go forth, race through even harder

and take all of your beliefs into your embrace!

The truth always comes in ones

so sense the voice inside your heart!

Hoist your sentiments firm

and seize the signs for tomorrow!

The Ancient Forest: Invitation to the Spirits' World

Attaboy, sonny!

Alright, now he's advanced to the second round.

That sure was one intense game, huh?

You said it! Yusei's an awesome duelist!

Yep, a huge difference from a certain someone who lost in the first round.

What'cha talkin' 'bout? You're the one who lost, Luca.

That one didn't count on my official record, so there!

Official record, my foot!

Everybody!

Yeah! We have an emergency on our hands!

Event Sponsor Godwin has just made a surprising proposition!

Hey, all you losers who were regrettably defeated in the first round,

are you listening to this!?

It's been determined that we will now be holding a consolation game!

Alright! I can duel again!

That's great, Lua!

I'll win this time!

Oh, boy. There you go, Lua, getting carried away again.

What should I do with my deck? I've just gotta reorganize it.

Oh, Luca? Lemme borrow your clothes again.

No, I don't wanna.

How come?

Yeah! Now we're about to announce the match-up for the consolation game!

The match will be conducted only by the randomly drawn set of players!

And the person fortune has chosen...

was regrettably defeated by Contestant Bomber, but at the mere age of eleven,

her skills have received Sponsor Godwin's seal of approval!

She has promise that's simply soaring through the roof!

The Dueling Angel from the Heavens!

Ms. Luca-chan!

Luca...

That girl is the real Luca, right? The imposter showed me some fine dueling.

So, I wonder how the genuine article will fare.

W-What should I do?

"What should you do"? Well, you know, you are the one entered in this, Luca-chan.

But I'm Luca!

Even so, tellin' from this crowd, if Luca-chan doesn't show up, there'll be trouble.

Luca! Luca! Luca!

No way. I don't wanna...

I get really tired when I duel.

Ah, brother. Just when I got my chance to maybe fight Yusei. And to see it end like this...

Fine. I'll try to win this duel.

Eh?

You can take my spot from there, Lua.

Y'mean it!? That's awesome! I'll be behind you all the way!

Geez, good to see you happy.

Luca! Luca! Luca!

This is pretty excitin'! What kind of deck could Luca-chan have, anyway?

A Spirit Deck.

Spirit?

Mm-hmm, she told me she can hear the voices of Duel Monsters Spirits.

And that she built her deck following what the voices told her. So, you get a "Spirit Deck."

Well, that's...how's that again?

She gets really tired once she hears the spirits' voices.

That's sort of why she doesn't like dueling all that much.

So? You're saying that child is a Signer?

Yes, during the first round,

the reaction from the D-Sensor most certainly came from her as she sat in the stands.

This consolation game is but the setting to affirm the fact that she is a Signer.

♫Sp~inni~ng, sp~inni--

Oh, yes, yes! All preparations are a-okay!

Look, if you'd be so kind!

If we get a reaction that exceeds this scale, then, you might as well...

...downright allot her with the title of Signer!

We have expressed interest in her to begin with,

and we invited her to this tournament upon learning of an incident that happened eight years ago.

Eight years ago?

She was a child prodigy, already versed in dueling at the age of three.

But, one day, she abruptly fell into a coma while dueling

and hadn't regain consciousness for a whole month, as we've heard.

However, her twin brother, Lua-kun, in the meanwhile, was constantly by her side, calling out his sister's name,

and, sure be it, after a month, she miraculously recovered.

How does this share any relevance to Signers?

What drew in our interest was what she said as she recovered.

She said something about having gone to the world of the Duel Monsters Spirits for that one month.

World of the Duel Monsters Spirits?

The first origins of Duel Monsters are wrapped in mystery and there exist many legends behind them.

Some are heavily comprised with items coinciding with the aspects of the Spirit World she spoke of after her recovery.

Including the legends remnant in the People of the Stars.

It has been eight years since then.

And our investigation shows that neither of them have any recollection of that incident.

In which case, I believe taking her back to that time is in order.

Back to the world of Duel Monsters Spirits.

In doing so, we might realize that girl's true power.

Now on the field is the Young Dueling Prodigy, Luca-chan!

It's true! This Duel Disk is way more easier to use.

Yusei!

And now, facing against Luca-chan, the Young Dueling Prodigy, will be...

There he is! Also known as the Duel Counselor--Professor Frank!

Pleased to meet your acquaintance, Luca-san.

S-Same.

Now, what do you say to finding the real "you" hidden off in the inner depths of your consciousness?

Somehow...

Yeah. You have the same uneasy feeling too?

Now, we're about to get started!

Consolation game, start!

Duel!!

I should end this game as soon as possible.

It's my turn. Draw.

I'll summon Sunny Pixie in defense mode.

Ooh! It really is a spirit!

You can do it, Luca!

I'll end my turn.

It's my turn. Draw.

I will summon Symmetry Rorschach.

What kind of monster is that?

Are you familiar with what's known as the Rorschach Test?

This will be a psychological test to help acquire clues that will dispel

any insecurities, worries, or doubts you have based on how you feel about this ambiguously-profiled monster.

Come now, Luca-chan. What does this monster look to you?

What is with this man?

Come now, answer. What is it?

"What"?

Come now...

Come now. Come now, what is it?

I say it's a Crystal Skull!

It's a butterfly!

It feels like Luca's opponent has something against her.

Come now. Come now.

Come now.

What does it look like?

"What"?

A spirit?

Spiral Mind!!

No!

This test has revealed that, in the recesses of your consciousness, you are afraid.

You are afraid of spirits and fairies, am I correct?

No, that's not--

All is fine. I shall clear any worries you have and set them free.

To do so, you shall courageously venture to the whole other world

within the inner depths of your consciousness, the world of the Duel Monsters Spirits.

World of the Duel Monsters Spirits?

Why, I know. You are able to perceive the language of spirits.

Therefore, there being a world of Duel Monsters Spirits isn't very strange at all.

How could such a world exist?

Symmetry Rorschach's effect activates.

When it destroys an opponent's monster, it can flip the top card of my opponent's deck face-up.

Peeping Mind!!

Kuribbon.

Such a cute Spirit card it is.

Would you happen to hear its voice as well?

It's true that I can hear the voices of spirits, but...

Lua!

Luca! Luca! Luca! Luca!!

What was that just now?

Something wrong, Lua?

For some reason...I'm really afraid...

I place two cards face-down to end my turn.

It would be your turn.

Draw.

Kuribbon, come.

Now I open my reverse card, Guiding Light to the Inner Depths.

The opposing player sends five cards from the top of their deck to the Cemetery

and adds the sixth card into their hand after both players check it.

If they do not play the card during this turn, the opposing player will receive 2000 points of damage.

Come now and turn over the cards from the top of your deck, if you please.

Do it slowly.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

Come, come, come. What is your sixth card?

Ah, that's the Field Magic, Ancient Forest.

All monsters switch to attack mode.

One can neither summon anything in defense mode nor switch anything to defense mode.

And, monsters that attack are destroyed at the end of the Battle Phase.

A world which puts all out into the open...

and simply does not tolerate conflict.

Now, to the world of Duel Monsters Spirits!

Where am I?

Kuribbon.

This couldn't be...

the world of Duel Monsters Spirits that man was talking about, could it?

This place is so nice and calm, but I feel a little scared...

It would appear that you have reached the Spirits' World locked within the inner depths of your consciousness.

Draw.

I activate the Permanent Trap, Gestalt Trap.

This card will become an Equip card on an opponent's monster.

I equip this card to Kuribbon.

The equipped monster has its Monster Effect negated,

and has both its attack and defense power reduced to zero.

What's wrong, Kuribbon!?

Next, I equip the Equipment Magic, Immortal Homeostasis, to Kuribbon from my hand.

The equipped monster cannot be destroyed by battle.

During your own Standby Phase, if the equipped monster's attack power

differs from its original attack power, its owner receives 300 points of damage.

In summary, as long as Kuribbon's attack power is zero,

you shall take damage each and every turn.

Then, I release Symmetry Rorschach...

...to Advance Summon Id the Super Demonic Lord.

Kuribbon!

No!!

During the End Phase in which Id is destroyed, it's Special Summoned to my side of the field.

Also, as long as Id is on the field...

I cannot summon any monsters.

--What're you doing!? --You're gonna lose again!

What is wrong with Luca-chan!? She's had a complete lapse in concentration!

Hey...

Lua?

I attack Kuribbon with Id the Super Demonic Lord! Violent Egoism!!

No!!

Due to the equipped Immortal Homeostasis, Kuribbon will not be destroyed.

However, it shall experience eternal pain in a world of its own immortality.

Come now.

Try to remember. Your true mission, from the midst of pain, from the midst of fear.

Come now.

Come now. Come now, come.

Come...

That's right!

Conflict isn't tolerated in this forest!

I-It can't be...!

Id will be Special Summoned during the End Phase of the turn in which it was destroyed.

I end my turn.

Come now, it's your turn.

Draw.

During the current Standby Phase,

Immortal Homeostasis' effect will force 300 points of damage onto you.

No!!

I summon Sunlight Unicorn.

I equip Horn of the Unicorn onto Sunlight Unicorn.

Its attack power is greater than Id's own.

Sunlight Unicorn!

Luca...Luca...

Who's that? Who's there?

Luca, you did come to honor your promise.

Promise?

You said that you would protect the world of Duel Monsters Spirits from the evil ones.

Who are you? Who?

What are you grasping for? What good will it do you?

We're moving forward and we'll make sure to discover what.

Never-ending sentiments, the passionate beats of our hearts--

and the voice of truth are all what we heard.

We got busted up and we learned...

of where we can get stronger.

I pile up the dreams in my hand and one day I'll lead them all to you.

Shouting the signal for the start, we'll do what our hearts want

and vault over our cramped and mediocre lives!

We'll make a dash and attain every bit of our brilliant futures!

Embracing the bonds we so believe in, we'll go toward tomorrow to race on.

A strange voice tells me to "protect the spirits' world"...

I don't know what you mean! I didn't promise anything like that!

Next time, on Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, "The Spirits' World Contaminated: Evil Intent, Id the Super Demonic Lord"!

Lua, bring me back!

The Yu-Gi-Oh! cards out of all of your imaginations will play a part on the show.
