      That lion will make a fine steed for the Star Seraph Inquisition.

      • Darkhar on December 22, 2024 1:10 pm

        Indeed

    2. Joshua Seed on December 22, 2024 2:16 am

      I guess Ancient Forest has been considered obsolete. Shame 😔. The card really needs a reprint badly in the TCG. The card like a 30 dollars online.

    3. CarnageJak on December 22, 2024 2:19 am

      The Field Spell is anti-Links

      • Joshua Seed on December 22, 2024 2:21 am

        It’s effect is literally the polar opposite of Ancient Forest.

      • The man on December 22, 2024 8:17 am

        Blue-eyes support

    4. ScionStorm on December 22, 2024 2:23 am

      Surprised they didn’t archetype her Synchros. Maybe next time around.

      • Snortfa on December 22, 2024 2:31 am

        What do you mean? This literally locks you to synchros??

      • ScionStorm on December 22, 2024 2:37 am

        Pretty sure Ancient Pixie Dragon doesn’t mention Ancient Fairy Dragon.

      • DrakeyC on December 22, 2024 8:46 pm

        Yeah, Luna and Aki are weird with how their manga dragons are incompatible with their anime counterparts due to naming, but the other Signers are.

      • ScionStorm on December 22, 2024 9:10 pm

        Aki’s Black Rose Moonlight Dragon is still part of Aki’s “Rose” Synchro archetype. They could have done the same think for Luna given she has the only “Ancient” Dragon Synchros in the whole game.

    5. Snow on December 22, 2024 2:29 am

      Wtf is the last effect on that Continuous Trap… Once per chain Forbidden Droplet with no pre-requisite? Wow.

      • Snow on December 22, 2024 2:30 am

        Nevermind, I just re-read the first line of text. Still pretty great.

      • ScionStorm on December 22, 2024 2:30 am

        You have to have at least 1 AFD or monster that mentions it to use that effect.

    6. brave1_007 on December 22, 2024 2:40 am

      If this gets a wave 2, I hope Sunlight Unicorn gets a retrain 🙏

      • ScionStorm on December 22, 2024 2:43 am

        And Sunny Pixie.

      • J. D. Guy on December 22, 2024 3:04 am

        Same for both. I’d also like a lower-Level Synchro for them, too.

      • ScionStorm on December 22, 2024 12:16 pm

        Yeah, a Synchro that resembles Luna and Leo like that Morphtronic Synchro that Leo got.

      • thebaseddd2 on December 22, 2024 2:59 pm

        Yes, Christmas came early but the twins need more lower level synchros to chill with!

    7. N on December 22, 2024 2:45 am

      These cards are pretty cute but aside from AFD and to a limited extent the Field Spell as a floodgate they won’t see much play.

    8. 999 on December 22, 2024 2:51 am

      Is a shame that Sunlight Unicorn didn’t got it’s retrain but Finally our Girl had her Upgrade Dragon

      • The President of the United States on December 22, 2024 7:48 am

        I’d say chances are good we’ll get a Sunlight Unicorn and/or Sunny Pixie retrain.

    9. Zeru on December 22, 2024 3:08 am

      Poor Luna always getting the extra treatment, she’s the only one who’s not a cover for a pack or SD

      • GamingGuy84 on December 22, 2024 2:42 pm

        Not true. Ancient Fairy Dragon was the cover for Ancient Prophecy way back when.

      • thebaseddd2 on December 22, 2024 3:06 pm

        Zeru was referring to Ruka herself being on the cover.

    10. MadnessEnds on December 22, 2024 3:08 am

      Is it me, or could some of these cards have some synergy with light fairy decks like melodious?

      • N on December 22, 2024 3:12 am

        Life Dragon is certainly splashable in many decks. Not sure for Melodious specifically

    11. thebaseddd2 on December 22, 2024 3:31 am

      Ruka fever is sweeping the world! Normally an article like this would use a 5d’s screenshot or gif instead of immediately spoiling the art so I could slowly savor scrolling down but whatever. Fairy Archer benefits but a few other members of the crew aren’t LIGHT, alas. Kuribon still not treated as a “Kuriboh” monsters, tsk. Very strange that Blood Rose Dragon and Black-Winged Assault Dragon have a perk involving their base forms but not Power Tool Braver Dragon and Ancient Fairy Life Dragon. Stop treating the twins as second-class signers! Not surprised to see a focus on Ancient Forest’s thing given the lack of material to work with, mainly Ruka’s one and ONLY 1v1 duel that was still interrupted in a way. Life gain/burn focus next time? Monsters don’t have an “endurance” stat so the most support def can have is the SHS treatment it seems.

      If we could have nice things the next wave would be 5 or more cards to make up for lost time and a new Ruka-focused OVA of course.

    12. Fire King Enthusiast on December 22, 2024 3:38 am

      I wonder if they’ll make a card based on the de-aged Dark Sage/Torunka who helped Ruka defeat Zeman and free the Spirits.

      On that note, and I know this is a pipe dream, but imagine if they also did retrains of monsters who appeared in 5D’s spirit world in some way, be it physically or as stone tablets in Zeman’s castle.

    13. Heraldic Heretic on December 22, 2024 3:41 am

      My God…the size that booties will grow too with that trap.

    14. Namesky on December 22, 2024 4:10 am

      That’s… interesting.
      Not sure how good it is, but they did a decent attempt at connecting the mish-mash of Ruka’s cards into somewhat coherent strategy. And because it’s a rather curious tri-type support there’s a lot to be tested and experiment with, too!

    15. Zbiggichan on December 22, 2024 5:14 am

      This is the OCG giving a Christmas present to Josh.

    16. TheROoNCo on December 22, 2024 6:15 am

      And with that all six Signer Dragons finally have an evolution (though I suppose Braver Dragon is more of a sidegrade).

      • 999 on December 22, 2024 2:56 pm

        Braver is a Fusion Between Life Stream and Power Tool, you can see that is basically Life Stream Wearing Power Tool Broken metallic armor

    17. Parallellord22 on December 22, 2024 6:20 am

      If they connect this to dark Sage that means he’s now connected to Dark Magician support which would change this entire deck to being a lot more valuable but also there’s one other thing that could do that would be very impressive and that would be give her a level 10 which mentions pixie dragon.

      Or connect kariboh to this art type because by doing so you now have two separate toolboxes she can go into

    18. Jay on December 22, 2024 6:53 am

      I wonder if this means that they’ll print Double Ripple since the Duel Links version of that card mentions Ancient Fairy Dragon and would therefore be searchable off of new Regulus.

    19. thebaseddd2 on December 22, 2024 7:40 am

      Part 2 of my euphoria

      Even before noticing Cusillu in the art I was thinking about how we need s/t artwork of LIfestream Dragon fighting Chacu Challhua. Justice must be done! Outside of Morphtronic Earfon neither of the twins have lower lv in-theme extra deck options. “When you’re not a first-class signer” moment. That is another place for improvement. I just noticed LIfe Dragon is stat creep with pure upside, as far as level 8 synchros go. Just earlier we had gross generic scale 9 with pure upside. Such is life.

      I guess the remaining anime slots are acrana force? I hope.

      • ScionStorm on December 22, 2024 12:22 pm

        The Metalmotph cards in SUDA were listed after the Materiactors. So if we follow that pattern, Arcana Force cards would be under the new Dragon Ruler cards. I hope we at least get a couple of new AF monsters.

      • Nymmy on December 22, 2024 5:40 pm

        Sad thing is, Crow was the one who dealt with the whale, not Leo, who didn’t even have Black-Feathered Dragon. That was the Blackwings vs. Reactors matchup, but my God, I’d love to see more cards that show the Earthbounds in action!

      • Nymmy on December 22, 2024 5:46 pm

        Actually, scratch that, how about artwork of AFD, Lifstream and Red Nova Dragon fighting Astro Asterisk?

    20. Dragnick3 on December 22, 2024 8:03 am

      Tcg gonna have a nightmare translating these into their version of card grammar.

    21. Snakeman on December 22, 2024 5:56 pm

      Is the first spell first effect not once per turn?

      • ScionStorm on December 22, 2024 6:31 pm

        Since “The World of Spirits” can only be activated once per turn, it can only resolve its activation once per turn. So the first effect can only happen once per turn.
