Crowler announces Chazz and Syrus as the winners , and the students cheer that " Syrus " finished the Americans , and they ' ve beaten them again . Jaden , Alexis and Bastion cheer . Jesse Anderson remarks that his fellow students lost too . He comments that these Japanese kids aren ' t bad , and that this is getting interesting . Adrian Gecko scornfully thinks that the Tag Duels are nothing more than ' party games ' , wondering how he ' s expected to show his real strength in a Duel where his partner ' s skills control whether he wins or loses . He thinks that he ' d never lose on his own , and all of the American Academy students think that they ' ll pay them back for the Tag - Duel when they Duel one - on - one . Jaden cheers Syrus , telling him that he was awesome , and now they ' ve whipped the American Academy twice in a row . Alexis compliments Chazz as being amazing as always . Chazz takes the compliment at face value , and tells Jaden not to lose , as he ' s the only Duelist left . Jaden tells Chazz that he ' s got it . Syrus tells Jaden to win them another one as Jaden puts on his Duel Disk - and then realizes that his opponent isn ' t here . Crowler smirks as he notes this , much to Jaden ' s dismay . Alexis suggests that he Duel one of the American students already present , though she seems to regret speaking up after Jaden gets excited again . Crowler reluctantly agrees , and Jaden asks the Americans which one will Duel him . Before they can answer , a helicopter flies at low altitude over them , and its occupant laughs , commenting that they ' ve already started the exchange battle . In the Academy building , Chancellor Sheppard comments that he ' s arrived , while Principal MacKenzie remains silent . Jaden angrily yells after the helicopter , calling what the pilot did dangerous , but Crowler interrupts , revealing that Jaden ' s opponent has arrived . Alexis wonders what he ' s like , and Crowler responds that they ' ll soon find out . Jaden asks Crowler if he knows , and Crowler states that of course he does , while Adrian snorts in the background . In the Academy building , Atticus Rhodes comments that the final American has made his entrance a day late , and wonders what sort of Duelist he is . Their Duel Academy has won two rounds of the Tag Duel , so the American Academy can ' t afford to lose another one . Zane Truesdale points out that the World Tournament was held in Korea the previous day , and the Pro Duelist who won it has another persona as an eighteen - year - old student . Atticus realizes who he ' s talking about , agreeing that it has to be him . He comments that with another big shot on campus , their winning streak might just be shut down . Reggie MacKenzie waits at the helipad , and welcomes the occupant to Duel Academy . She tells Aster Phoenix that it ' s been a while , and he greets her warmly , observing that she ' s in Japan too . She explains that she ' s on a short - term exchange , and changes the subject , congratulating Aster for his tournament win the previous day . Aster thanks her , and she asks him if they should go . Aster agrees , pulling his suitcase behind him , admitting that he didn ' t think that he ' d get roped into a student exchange battle . Reggie agrees with a laugh . Aster decides to treat it as a break from the world tournament , but Reggie points out that it may not be very restful for him . Aster comments that if she ' s saying that , he ' ll be able to have a little fun . Reggie agrees , suggesting that he enjoy himself as a student instead of as a pro . Aster agrees , stating that he ' ll be sure to do that . He then comments that there ' s something different about Reggie ; she ' s not as prickly as she used to be , and is more like the old Reggie again , when she was little . Reggie muses that if Aster says it , it must be true . She wonders if he ' s right , but she knows that something vanished inside her back in the Abandoned Dorm , in front of Jaden and Ms . Hibiki . She remembers being told that she lost her memory , and wonders what memories she lost , though she thinks that there ' s a part of her that doesn ' t want to remember . For some reason she thinks those memories have something to do with her father , that monster . . . Her eyes go wide as she realizes what she just said . As soon as the students see Aster , they immediately begin cheering . Alexis is shocked , while Bastion says that it ' s really him . Even Chazz is surprised to see Aster . Zane comments that it " was " Aster Phoenix , but Atticus is angrily distracted by the fact that Aster left his luggage with Reggie . Zane doesn ' t seem to understand Atticus ' response . Mr . Samejima comments that he knew it ; the students are going nuts . Tragoedia thinks to himself that with this , everything is in place , and now he should savour this " Game . " Predictably though , Jaden has absolutely no idea who Aster is , much to the shock of his friends . Jaden thinks that he gets it ; Aster ' s wearing a suit , but he ' s an American Academy student , isn ' t he . Alexis tries to deny it , then realizes that that ' s true , though more importantly he ' s a Pro Duelist . Jaden is shocked , ending up pointing at Aster , and promptly being reprimanded for doing so by Bastion . Bastion explains that Aster took the Pro Test the previous year under the recommendation of Mr . MacKenzie , the principal of the American Academy . Aster got the top score and passed with flying colours , remaining a student , but also acting as an active Pro . Bastion points out that Aster is a top Duelist featured in lots of Duel Magazines , and Alexis wonders how Jaden hasn ' t heard of him . Bastion begs Jaden to switch with him , but Jaden refuses , pointing out that Bastion ' s already Dueled today , and he hasn ' t . Dr . Crowler announces that as a result of the coin toss , Aster will begin the Duel . Bastion is still jealous of Jaden , and Alexis points out that today ' s not his only chance to Duel Aster . Aster thinks that the American Academy is already down by two losses , and he can ' t let them lose a third ; not as an American Academy student . Jaden is excited to be up against a Pro Duelist for his first Duel using his new Deck . Bastion admits that he ' s looking forward to the Duel in a way , and Alexis agrees . Chazz reveals that the two Duelists both use " Heroes " , and the Duel begins . Aster draws , Summoning " Vision Hero Minimum Ray " in Defense Position and ending his turn . Jaden is both shocked and thrilled to see a " HERO " , and draws , then Summons " Masked Hero Inferno " . Bastion and Alexis are shocked to see a " Masked Hero " rather than the usual " Elemental Heroes " , and even Chazz is taken aback , though Syrus , who had known about the change beforehand , just grins . Aster remarks that Jaden ' s a " HERO " user too , and Jaden suggests that they see whose " HEROes " survive , his or Aster ' s . He attacks " Minimum Ray " with " Inferno " , destroying it and ending his turn . Aster draws , Summons " Mirage Magician " in Attack Position , and Sets a card to end his turn . Jaden is surprised to see a weak monster in Attack Position , knowing that Aster wants him to attack , though he notes the danger of Aster ' s Set card . He Summons " Masked Hero Bassols " in Attack Position , and decides to risk it ; he can ' t advance without being agressive . " Inferno " destroys " Mirage Magician " , reducing Aster ' s Life Points to 3000 . This activates the effect of " Mirage Magician , " Special Summon ing a monster with 1000 or less ATK from his Deck ; " Vision Hero Multiply Guy .
