After defeating the two manliest men with his wicked Entertainment Dueling (even it looked more like Yuri's thing to me), the third manly man Crow Hogan the black phoenix (not African, not Brittish) and Super Ultra Hyper Strong Duelist Neo New Sawatari Shingo-sama will continue in their place.
Since Haouryuu Zarc destroyed a monster (Red Daemon's Dragon Scarlight to be specific), he Special Summons his two Darkwürmer from his Extra Deck in Defense Position...I guess he is not allowed to attack them, even though Battle Royal duelist have very incosistent and loose rules to begin with. Then he sets three cards and end his turn. I'm 100% sure that this move doesn't come from Yuya's influence. He is waiting for Crow and Sawatari to do their move and to show them the best Entertainment. This is what you get if you combine Yuya and Yuri in one body.
Layra is telling Reiji that the Professor needs the four cards that defeated Zarc and that both of them should not fight each other at this point. Reiji is now looking for his father alone, while Layra receives another message from Ray.
Sawatari and Crow tell Zarc that what he is doing is not entertainment, as entertainment is about making people smile (egao; I simply can't put egao as a verb). Crow takes the initiative before Sawatari and he recalls his argument he had with Yuya. He realizes now that egao is as important as food. He Normal Summons Kochi (I guess I don't need to tell you who Kochi is) and then Special Summons Gladius. He is thankful for Yuya that he brought real piece in City and ended the war between the Tops and Commons and Crow will stop him destroying the world(s). He tunes Gladius with Kochi to Synchro Summon Raikiri. However, since Crow Synchro Summoned, Zarc Synchro Summons Haoukenryuu Clear Wing during Crow's turn and activates its effect to negate Raikiri's effect and destroy him. Then Crow activates the Quick-Spell Card Black Feather Illusion to Special Summon the destroyed Raikiri, but with his effects negated. That is Crow's entertainment. He declares with Raikiri to attack Clear Wing, but Clear Wing negates the attack and destroys Raikiri. Of course, unlike Jack, Crow is not the kind of idiot who would do the same mistake someone did just a moment ago (I'm referencing the Bruno's debut episode). He activates the Quick-Spell Card Black Feather Reverse to negate the damage he would have taken from Clear Wing's effect and Special Summons a Black Feather Synchro Monster from his Extra Deck whose ATK is equal to the original damage. Since the original damage was 2600, he Special Summons Chidori on the field. With three Black Feather monsters in his Graveyard, Chidori gains 900 ATK and attacks Clear Wing. Like I said, unlike Jack, Crow doesn't repeat someone's mistake, as he banishes Black Feather Illusion from his Graveyard to negate the effects Zarc's Spell Cards until the end of the Damage Step, inflicting 1000 damage on Zarc, something which we haven't seen since Sora damaged him.
Zarc however is not impressed by Crow's entertainment and now starts his entertainment. He activates his Continuous Trap Card Haou Ranbu (Supreme King Dance) and forces Chidori to attack again. Since Haouryuu Zarc is the only monster on the field, Chidori loses the battle pathetically. As Haouryuu Zarc destroyed a monster in battle, he Special Summons his two Darkwurm in Defense Position, then Crow activates Chidori's effect to revive Raikiri on the field. During his Main Phase 2, Crow activates Raikiri's effect to destroy a card on Zarc's field, with Zarc commenting that he's unaffected by the effects of Fusion, Xyz and Synchro Monsters. The Black Bullet notices that Zarc seems to hate the idea of losing, telling him that he cannot fully appreciate victories if he never experiences losses. The Commons used to lose a lot, but they never gave up. For the first time, Zarc is upset about his opponent's words, telling him that he won't ever lose. Anyway, Raikiri's effect fails due to Haou Ranbu's protection effect. Then Crow ends his turn.
Finally, we get to see Super Ultra Hyper Strong Duelist Neo New Sawatari Shingo-sama's turn, and he steal Yuya's catch phrase right at the beginning. (That's not the right time you're supposed to use it. It's meant for climaxes). He sets Devil Heel and Funky Comedian on his Pendulum Zone and Pendulum Summons his all-star cast Big Star, Wild Hope and Pretty Heroine. But Zarc interrupts Sawatari's show and tributes his two Darkwurm to Special Summon that Pendulum Monster from either his hand, deck or Extra Deck: Haoukenryuu Odd-Eyes. Meanwhile, the Syuzou and the Yusyo kids still haven't realized that Zarc looks like Yuya. Yes, it's pretty far away, but come on. Sawatari activates Big Star's effect to act the Abyss Script - Rise of the Abyss King to his hand. But since he added a card to his hand, Haouryuu Zarc's destroys the card. Sawatari taunts him for being afraid, which pisses Zarc off. Then Sawatari activates Continuous Spell Card Abyss Script - Abyss Entertainment from his hand to tribute Pretty Heroine and to set Rise of the Abyss King from his Graveyard to his field. He then activates the Spell Card he just set (thankfully that is legit) to destroy cards equal to the number of Abyss Actors with different names he controls. He targets Zarc and Odd-Eyes, and since Sawatari controls a Level 7 Abyss Actor, Zarc cannot respond with cards or effects to Rise of the Abyss King's activation, thus Haou Ranbu is unable to protect him and Odd-Eyes.
However, the first time Pendulum cards on the field cannot be destroyed once per turn, thanks to Odd-Eyes' effect. Tatsuya still thinks that the opponent isn't Yuya-niichan (well, he is more or less right), even though the others see a connection between the opponent and Yuya. Sawatari taunts Zarc for his lack of courage, recalling their second duel where Yuya risked his well-being to grab an Action Card. As Abyss Entertainmen has no "once per turn" restriction, Sawatari reuses its effect to re-set Rise of the Abyss King and activates to destroys Zarc. However, Haouryuu Zarc cannot be destroyed as long as Fusion, Synchro and Xyz Monsters are in either player's Graveyard, thus the monsters of Sora, Edo, Kurosaki, Kaito, Gongenzaka, Jack and Crow will protect him.
Then the Professor emerges with his cool platform and tells Crow and Sawatari that they won't defeat him that way and he joins the duel and takes the intrusion damage. The fusion of the dimensions continues, thus Standard, the Xyz Dimension end mixed up with the Fusion Dimension, and some carded people have been returned. The Professor asks if Zarc recognizes him and the latter confirms that. We see some old flashbacks again, but this time Zarc is not silhouetted, probably because both, the Professor and Zarc know how Zarc looked like back then.
The duel continues and Zarc sends his Haou Ranbu to his Graveyard to force Big Star and Raikiri to attack Zarc. At first it looks like Crow and Sawatari would survive the attack, but due to Odd-Eyes's effect, the Battle Damage Pendulum Monsters inflict to on Zarc's opponents gets doubled, thus the two of them lose.
The Professor intends to defeat with the cards that defeated Zarc and begins his turn. He activates Spirit Collapse and pays 1000 Life Points to send a Fusion Monster, Pendulum Ruler, from his Extra Deck to his Graveyard. At this point, Reiji joins the duel and doesn't leave his father alone to fight Zarc. Now that there are three Fusion Monsters in the Graveyard, the Professor's conditions are complete. However, Zarc activates Haou Burei (Supreme King Brutality) to destroy four cards in the Professor's hand, destroying the four Kachou Fugetsu cards En Flowers, En Birds, En Winds and En Moon and inflicts 300 damage for each destroyed card, causing the Professor to lose. Reiji saves his Too-chan (how cute) from his fall, while Layra climbs up the ARC-V where he finds Ray. (Damn you, censorship.)
I hope the Professor has learned his lesson about stacking your deck.
Well, Crow and Sawatari did a good job and managed to discover Zarc's personality flaw. Zarc's overpowered cards seems to cover up some kind of inferioty/superiority complex. Zarc might be invincible, but since he apparently hasn't experienced losses, he's afraid to lose. Considering how extremely competetive this guy is, I can understand that. It's actually nice to see that his overpowered cards aren't just overpowered for the sake of making him overpowered, but to reflect his personality. Unlike Dartz, Darkness, Z-one and Don Thousand, Zarc's cards protect him from something that he is afraid of.
While Clear Wing and Dark Rebellion are so powerful that they can deal with the opponents alone, Odd-Eyes is more supportive and gives Zarc the extra offensive power that Zarc needs to make him an even greater threat.
