(The Birth of an Animal Star)
In order to save the Velgearians, Yuga’s knowledge will be required. Yuamu and co. use Manya’s connections to help look for Yuga. They visit a studio to film a movie, but run into Bochi, who has previously disappeared after saying that he won’t come back until he’s become a star. And so, to punish Bochi, Manya begins a Duel against him!

From the summary alone, there are two curious details that I want to highlight.
1) I think this is the first GO RUSH summary that specifically mentions Yuga by name and not by nickname. Usually, GO RUSH’s recaps refer to Yuga as “That Boy” or “That Guy”, but here they refer to him as Yuga (although in Season 2 there were several Episodes’s summaries that always mentioned “That Guy”)
2) It is the first Duel for both Manya and Bochi after more than 60 Episodes. In fact, almost the entire cast of the first Arc of GO RUSH has had a Duel again in some way in Season 2 (Asaka being the one that stands out the most since she has had a Duel for each Arc of Season 2). I guess it’s a good way to revisit both characters’s Decks and update them for modern standards.
And next episode, according to the wiki, has The☆Lugh Dueling again (against Zaion) after who-knows-how-long.
