----------------------------------------
This episode was boring and felt like a recap until the end. We already knew most of what Sherry came to say and it was already pretty obvious Bruno (is that his name? I forgot) had something to do with the enemy/the Accel Synchro dude.

Who the hell made the character designs on Team Catastrophe?! The one dude could kill Team 5D's with his nose alone.

Bah, Crow replaces Aki. T_T As usual the women take a back seat in dueling. In GX I could stomach it, but Mai & Aki deserve more credit.

I cant say I mind, I do like Aki and all but Crow runs my favorite Archetype so It's nice to see him back in the saddle.

Alot of this was very predictable and felt like a wind down after the great duel against Team Unicorn.

I like Crow too but I just wish he wasn't replacing Aki. Jack should stay injured and it should be Crow, Aki, and Yusei. :P

Boo, me no like Crow replacing Aki when she's like the first female protagonist to do something :P

I was half sure that Bruno was about to snap that cat's neck.

Next week, new OP with the greatness that is Masaski Endoh. Just hearing that his name is attached to a new song indicates automatic awesome.

Oh snap, has Bruno remembered his memories? I call the new team cheaters that probably rigged Unicorns' bikes.

I'm not sure what to feel about Aki leaving the team. I mean, Crow was the original 3rd member, and Aki was really only temporary, so it makes sense Crow'd come back. It'd be better if they somehow SOMEHOW got Ruka in there for a match so that all the signers would have at least played for 5Ds once, but I doubt it.

Sigh, come here Aki, come join Carly on the sidelines that is the yugioh female cast.

I don't like Crow replacing Aki either. She's like a miracle to the whole Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise. Mai was somehow competent but still lackluster though I'm not exactly sure with this since it's been ages since I first saw the original Duel Monsters but from what I could remember, she was a mediocre character and Tea was useless as far as I remember. As for Alexis, I don't really have a good opinion of her as I found GX to be horrible in its entirety. It was when 5DS aired that I finally found a good female character and like always, she's sidelined. Oh god.

Despite there being no dueling, this was a good episode since it finally gave Sherry a chance to talk to Yusei about that time when they saw Z-One, and I liked how Sherry realized the connection between Z-One and Yusei, plus Bruno remembered things from his past. Though it makes me cackle that Yusei remembered Dark Glass but didn't realize that he's obviously Bruno.

Also the fact that Sherry beat her opponents all by herself despite having one less D-Wheeler than the other teams was one of those fake hype moments where a character gets hyped up to be really strong but is only slightly above average.

Apparently Sherry is quite skilled, probably even moreso than Team Unicorn. She isn't even fazed about being down an extra 4,000 LP in this tournament.

Well, I guess everyone is stronger than Team Unicorn. That's kind of sad, considering how long it took Yusei, Jack, and Akiza to beat them. But, if nothing else, it seems like we're setting up more threatening antagonists for the next few stages of this tournament. So, that's good.

Worst than the rules of the tourney making no sense the fact that the shows doesn't follow them.

in the first duel jack to drag his D-Wheel to tag another them member, otherwise they would've been disqualified. Meanwhile now two member of the same crashed. How did the second and competed if the first one never tag?
