10/2/11 RE-APP AMMENDEMENTS: part 2donttasemebroOctober 3 2011, 03:53:02 UTC
BACKGROUND:
continuing from the above...
So after his beach kitten adventure and everything returns to normal because nothing plot-important is ever allowed to happen in a recap episode. Team 5Ds has another WRGP match a couple weeks later which they of course win dramatically, but soon after Placido gets super pissed off and… well, remember that entire army of Ghosts? Yeah, he sets those loose on NDC. All of them.
Our Intrepid Heros set out to duel the shit out of all the Ghosts so that they don't kill everyone else in the WRGP (remember these guys deal real damage in duels) but since Bruno is on his Derp-Wheel it takes him a full episode to even get close to catching up to Yuusei, at which point Yuusei is surrounded by like 20 of the buggers and has pretty much no chance in hell. Bruno despairingly cries out that he wishes he could save him somehow.
At which point, naturally, he hears a voice in his head (the voice of the upside-down robot shrimp from Security) saying to him that he can, and telling him to "remember his mission." Bruno's eyes flash with a fine red array and he instantly remembers (at least) two things: one, that his "mission" is to protect Fudou Yuusei at all costs, and two, that he can indeed do this because he is the fucking Kamen Rider. And so, putting his serious face on, he revs up his little D-Wheel and… drives to the beach.
To make a long and somewhat stupid-sounding story short, he retrieves his previous D-Wheel from the drink and resumes his Dark Glass identity before zooming back just in time (remember that this is the D-Wheel that goes ludicrously fast) to save Yuusei's ass from the Ghosts. He tells Yuusei what he needs to do to achieve Accel Synchro and then keeps the now-even-more-enraged Placido off his back long enough for Yuusei to actually do it.
After Yuusei's triumphant return to save him in turn from Placido's cheating ass, though, he mostly hangs back to be the requisite commentator on the duel while Yuusei takes Placido on himself, and sticks around to silently listen to Jose and Luciano's villainous ultimatum when they come to scoop Placido's remains off the pavement after his inevitable defeat three episodes later. It's only after that's over and done with that Yuusei finally gets to turn around ask this mystery man who he is and why he's helping them. (What, you expecting him to realize his real identity? Guys this is Yugioh.)
"Dark Glass" is naturally aloof and cagey about it, saying only that he was sent to show him how to achieve Accel Synchro and making a few oblique statements about the being who gave Yuusei his Shooting Star Dragon, the same one he saw in the light at Security, whom the Tenors refer to as their "god of fate", and insisting that he doesn't know anything beyond that of what's yet to come. He then up and rides off like the mysterious asshole he is, although we get to hear a bit of his internal monologue while he does: that he really doesn't know what will happen next, only that the real fight will be from here on out.
It's in the middle of this riding off, before he gets to chance to slip back into his "Bruno" identity and meet back up with the team, that his most recent pull point (at the end of July) is.
