[SPLIT LIP]

Ryuki 39:

Okay, Tiger is exactly what I expected Ouja to be. Now here is a fucked up villain. He's just so... demented. He shed a tear for his colleague he killed, but acts completely apathetic, and says he'll probably cry for Ryuki, too. He's so quiet and unerving, like an actual psychotic, not the cartoonishly evil Ouja. (oh, and BTW, every single person in this universe is an idiot since the lawer is going to get him his deck back. If I was law enforcement in Japan I'd be offended) Tiger really seems dangerous, since he just attacks without warning. Very unsettling. Plus his design is even more awesome than Ouja, but the helmet looks strangley damaged. His final attack is pretty lame though, but then again Ryuki and Zolda are the only ones with cool finales.

The mirror monsters defending Yuiseless is interesting, and it showed her drawing them as a child. Also, one of the Alternative users has not only died, but their boss has another alt deck, AND they not only have a plan to close the mirror world but Alternative seems to be a hyper learner and Odin is, obviously, still alive and apparently just some random dude playing the part. I wonder now what happens to the other two Tiger decks and what having more than one deck means.

So anyway, LOTS of stuff going on, but one little problem: we're only ten episodes from the finale, why is this all kicking off now? Ryuki hasn't had the worst pacing ever, but literally half of the Ojua nonsense could have been this shit, and I have a feeling even more is to come. I hope this doesn't lead to a trunticated and fast-paced later run.
