Kick ass episode. Xaviax finally pulls out another awesome trick (he can duplicate the complete arsenal of an Advent Deck, no less the Advent Key, now?), and the stock footage from Ryuki was put to excellent use. Eubulon's true form was interesting. While cliche it was really well handled and looked surprisingly good as the only organic creature on the show thus far (no doubt handled by Steve Wang himself. Creature effects are what that man was put on this Earth to do). Curious as to how he really doesn't look at all like Xaviax (that is, unless Xaviax's robotic warrior form isn't his true form.). Finally an explanation as to how Ventara appears so advanced, but no word yet as to where the Advent Beasts and monsters came about and no explanation offered as to how the parallel universe was discovered (especially curious since the Ventaran riders seemed to have no clue of earth). All in all, an episode with its flaws (corny exchange with Maya and Michelle) but over all pretty cool. And, I'll shut up now.
