Yu - Gi - Oh ! ZEXAL - Episode 059 " Rockin ' and Rollin ' " , known as " Fierce Brawl ! Yuma vs . Gauche - This Is My Duel Soul " in the Japanese version , is the fifty - ninth episode of the " Yu - Gi - Oh ! ZEXAL " anime . It first aired in Japan on June 11 , 2012 , and in the United States on April 27 , 2013 Summary . Back aboard his Duel Coaster , Yuma hits a Trap Point - " Cemetary Bomb " . As he emerges from the smoke , he bemoans his luck . Tori yells at him , saying he should pay attention . Astral shouts that there ' s another trap ahead . Yuma barely changes lanes in time , narrowly avoiding the trap . Tori angrily asks him what ' s wrong with him . Yuma is saddened as he remembers the Duel s he witnessed and the histories of Dextra , Kite , Quattro , Quinton and Shark . Tori tells him to watch out again as they spiral towards the Desert Duel Field . When they emerge , the Duel Coaster tracks continue throughout the battlefield . Yuma asks where they are and Astral responds that it must be the field where they will fight . Yuma brings his Duel Coaster to a halt when he sees Nistro , who says he has been waiting for him . Nistro suggests they get started immediately . At the Duel Coaster Stadium , Mr . Heartland yells " Heart Burning ! " and wonders who will advance to the semifinals - Yuma or Nistro ? He announces that the field is the " Desert Field " . Yuma and Nistro re - enter their coasters and begin , with Nistro having 4000 Life Points , but Yuma having still be reduced to 100 after the Duel Coaster . Nistro stands up in his Duel Coaster and Normal Summon s " Heroic Challenger - Double Lance " . Rocks begin to fall from the sky and Nistro ' s Life Points fall to 3800 . Heartland explains that the Field Spell damaged him and that whenever a monster is Summoned in Attack Position or attack s , its controller will take 200 damage . Tori says that means their Life Points will decrease whenever they attack and Yuma says that ' s not good - he has only 100 left to begin with . Heartland mutters that he thought Nistro would like this field and that he should consider it a present ( this part is removed from the dub ) . Nistro seems to think this does seem like something Heartland would do . He thinks back to his childhood . He is fleeing something with Dextra . As Mr . Heartland arrives via helicopter , he says that Heartland took them in - but they were forced to learn how to Duel and were to follow his every order ( this part is cut from the dub ) . Nistro reveals that Dueling Yuma previously reawakened his Dueling spirit . He yells that this is the Duel he always wanted . He uses the effect of " Double Lance " , letting it be treated as two Overlay Units for the Xyz Summon of a " Heroic Champion " monster . He overlays his now two Level 4 monsters to Xyz Summon " Heroic Champion - Gandiva " in Attack Position . This time , sparks fly up from the coaster ' s track , dropping his Life Points to 3600 . Astral says he seems not to care about the Field Spell ' s effect . Nistro Set s two cards , ends his turn and urges Yuma to come at him . Yuma thinks that he needs to consider his current Life Points . With them , he won ' t be able to attack . Astral asks him what he ' s waiting for - Nistro is full of confidence , if they don ' t give it their all , they ' ll stand no chance . Yuma tells him he knows that and draws . Nistro activate s his face - down " Heroic Gift " , explaining that when his opponent ' s Life Points are lower than 2000 , they can become 4000 and he can draw two cards . Yuma and Astral both appear confused as to why he did that and Yuma angrily asks what he thinks he ' s doing . Nistro tells him he just wanted to draw some extra cards , but adds that defeating weakened opponents is not a hobby of his . Yuma still seems angry , while Astral thinks that Nistro is really risking everything by healing Yuma . Yuma Sets a monster , but Astral tells them he won ' t win by going on the defensive against Nistro . Yuma responds that has his own plans , Sets a card and ends his turn . Nistro chides him for being too wary and Normal Summons " Heroic Challenger - Night Watchman " , causing his Life Points to fall to 3400 as more rocks fall . Yuma is excited that Nistro took more damage and Nistro says the damage doesn ' t matter . He attacks the Set monster with " Night Watchman " and his Life Points fall to 3200 . He explains that " Night Watchman " can destroy a face - down monster it attacks without damage calculation . Yuma ' s face - down " Mogmole " is destroyed . Nistro says he has no defenses left and declare s a direct attack with " Gandiva " . Yuma says he knew Nistro would do that and reveals that the " Mogmole " can revive itself in face - up Defense Position after it is destroyed , but only once . He continues that Nistro ' s attacks cost him 400 Life Points and were wasted . Nistro is perplexed , saying that this isn ' t the kind of the Duel he expected . He activates the effect of " Gandiva " , detach ing an Overlay Unit to destroy a Special Summoned Level 4 or lower monster . " Gandiva " fires its bow ; the arrow splits in numerous luminescent arrows in the air , which hit " Mogmole " and destroy it . Nistro says that if Yuma gives him a poor Duel like this , he ' ll stand no chance . He orders " Gandiva " to attack directly , but Yuma activates his face - down " Battle Break " , which would destroy an attacking monster and end the Battle Phase . Nistro asks if Yuma really thought something like that would stop him and activates his face - down " Battler ' s Pride " , negating a card effect that would end an attack or Battle Phase . The attack of " Gandiva " continues , reducing Yuma to 1900 Life Points . Nistro Sets a card and ends his turn as his Life Points fall to 3000 via " Desert Field " . Nistro asks if Yuma understands yet - he won ' t be defeated if Yuma Duels as he has been . Yuma says he can ' t lose this Duel , but Astral tells him he can ' t win it . Yuma is confused , but Astral says Yuma is so focused on winning that he ' s become afraid of Dueling . He adds that due to seeing Kite and Shark ' s Duels , Yuma has developed an unconscious fear of Dueling . Yuma angrily asks if Astral thinks he ' s scared and draws . Astral asks if he ' s wrong . Yuma Normal Summons " Gagaga Magician " , so his Life Points fall to 1700 as a large rock hits him the head . He equip s " Gagaga Magician " with " One - Shot Wand " , explaining that it can increase a Spellcaster - Type monster ' s ATK by 800 . He says that with this , " Gagaga Magician " is stronger . He attacks " Gandiva " with " Gagaga Magician " , who fires a huge purple beam from its new wand , causing his Life Points to fall to 1500 . Nistro asks if Yuma really thinks that would work and activates his face - down " Heroic Advance " . He explains that when a " Heroic Champion " is target ed for an attack , this card can redirect the attack to a Level 4 or lower " Heroic Challenger " monster and double its ATK . The ATK of " Night Watchman " is doubled to 2400 as its sword grows . He adds that neither monster will be destroyed . " Night Watchman " absorbs the beam with its sword and fires it back at " Gagaga Magician " and Yuma ' s Life Points fall to 1400 . Yuma activates the effect of " One - Shot Wand " , explaining that he can destroy it at the end of a Battle Phase to draw a card . The card is " Grandram " , which he immediately Special Summon s in Attack Position , explaining that its effect can do so when his opponent controls an Xyz Monster . His Life Points fall to 1200 as " Grandram " bursts from one of the canyon walls . He overlays his two Level 4 monsters to Xyz Summon " Gagaga Cowboy " in Defense Position ( in the dub , its guns are repainted green to correspond with its TCG artwork ) . Nistro is angry it was Summoned in Defense Position , but Astral says Yuma will take no damage that way . Yuma activates the effect of " Gagaga Cowboy " . As it is in Defense Position , he can detach an Overlay Unit to inflict 800 damage . " Gagaga Cowboy " shoots Nistro several times , dropping him to 2200 . Yuma Sets two cards and ends his turn . Nistro rises and says that Yuma is using cheap tricks . He yells he didn ' t want to have a boring Duel like this . He activates " Xyz Crown " , equipping it to " Gandiva " . He explains that it can be equipped to an Xyz Monster and change its Rank to Level of an equivalent number . Therefore , " Gandiva " becomes a Level 4 monster and can also be treated as two Overlay Units for an Xyz Summon . Yuma is shocked to see an Xyz Monster being used as a material and Nistro overlays his now - three Level 4 monsters to Xyz Summon " Heroic Champion - Kusanagi " in Attack Position . Nistro ' s Life Points fall to 2000 and he tells Yuma that if he wants to defeat him , he must come at him with his true Dueling . Yuma realizes that Nistro has always used his own true Dueling . He looks back , considering his past moves to not have been in line with his true Dueling ( this part is cut from the dub ) . He slows his Duel Coaster and changes lanes , arriving back at the starting point . Tori asks him what ' s wrong and Yuma asks her to leave , saying he ' ll continue alone from here . He says he must bet everything on this Duel . Nistro slowly rolls in the adjacent lane , still standing in his coaster . Tori smiles and gets off the coaster , but tells Yuma to be sure to pick her back up after winning . As Yuma and Nistro leave , Tori yells " good luck ! " Astral muses that Kite and Shark are strong - they both have powers that can be feared ; he understands how Yuma could be scared of them . He adds that Yuma has gotten over those sorts of fears before though . Yuma smiles and says that in the end , he must go on with his own Dueling . Yuma stands up and yells that he ' ll show Nistro his true Dueling now . Nistro is pleased he ' s taking this seriously now . Their monsters reappear and Nistro activates " Fighter ' s Charm " , changing " Gagaga Cowboy " to Attack Position , but its ATK becomes equal to its DEF until the End Phase . " Kusanagi " attacks " Gagaga Cowboy " as sparks fly up and Nistro ' s Life Points become 1800 . Yuma activates his face - down " Overlay Buster " , increasing the ATK of " Gagaga Cowboy " to 2900 . Nistro activates the effect of " Kusanagi " , negating the activation of a Trap Card by detaching an Overlay Unit and increasing the ATK of " Kusanagi " by 500 . " Kusanagi " continues its attack , but Yuma activates his face - down " Fighting Fund " , preventing the destruction of " Gagaga Cowboy " by battle . Nistro reminds him he ' ll still take the damage though . Yuma ' s Life Points become 600 and he is nearly flung from his coaster . Nistro Sets two cards and asks Yuma if he ' ll give up now with only 600 Life Points left . Yuma says there ' s no way t he ' ll do that and that the true battle will start now . Nistro chuckles and says that is what he wanted . The tracks of the Duel Coaster abruptly end and they are both flung from their coasters onto the ground below . The tracks and canyon vanish are replaced by a red sunset . Astral says its a new Field Spell - " Sunset Showdown " . He explains that each player may only attack with one monster and when a monster is destroyed , its controller will take 300 damage . They continue their Duel , with Yuma ' s turn . He attacks " Kusanagi " with " Gagaga Cowboy " , with Nistro reminding him that " Kusanagi " has higher ATK . Yuma reveals that when " Gagaga Cowboy " is in Attack Position , it can detach an Overlay Unit to increase its own ATK by 1000 and decrease another monster ' s ATK by 500 . " Gagaga Cowboy " shoots a hail of energy shots at " Kusanagi " with two pistols . Nistro calls it a nice play and Yuma orders " Gagaga Cowboy " to attack . Nistro activates his face - down " Heroic Change " , followed by the effect of " Kusanagi " , negating his own trap and increasing its ATK by 500 , back to 2500 . Both of them are thrown onto their backs and Nistro says it was a draw . They both lose 300 Life Points via the new Field Spell ' s effect , leaving Nistro with 1500 and Yuma with 300 . Nistro tells Yuma this will be the last battle and activates his face - down " Xyz Xtreme ! ! " . He explains that when two Xyz Monsters destroy one another by battle , he can pay 1000 Life Points to let both players Special Summon Xyz Monsters of the same Rank from their Extra Decks . Nistro chooses " Heroic Champion - Excalibur " , adding that both Xyz Monsters Summoned by this effect will destroyed at the end of the Battle Phase ( though Nistro does not mention it , the card also attach s the previously destroyed Xyz Monsters to the new ones as Overlay Units ) . Nistro tells Yuma its his turn to Summon one and urges him to choose " " . He claims the fight won ' t be fun if they don ' t use their ace monster s . Astral muses that he wants to battle a " Number " and Yuma says he ' ll accept the challenge . " Utopia " appears and Nistro tells Yuma to come at him . Yuma attacks " Excalibur " with " Utopia " . Nistro activates the effect of " Excalibur " , detaching the Overlay Units to double its ATK to 4000 . Yuma detaches an Overlay Unit to activate the " Moon Barrier " effect of " Utopia " , negating his own attack . Nistro reminds him that at the end of the Battle Phase both monsters will be destroyed and Yuma will lose via the effect of the Field Spell . Yuma says he still has one more card and activates " Double or Nothing ! " from his hand . As an attack was negated , that monster ' s ATK can be doubled . The ATK of " Utopia " becomes 5000 . He orders " Utopia " to attack with " Hope Sword Double Slash " . Nistro ' s Life Points fall to 0 . Heartland yells that its been decided - the last semifinalist will be Yuma . Nistro apologizes to Dextra for losing and compliments Yuma for his great guts ( in the dub , Nistro asks for the license plate for that bridle ) . They both agree it was fun . Nistro hands Yuma " Excalibur " , saying he should take it with him , but adds that if Yuma Duels like he did at the beginning again , Nistro will not forgive him . Astral says that Duelists receive the feelings of Duelists who lose and that Nistro wishes to pass his feelings onto Yuma . Yuma thanks him and Nistro says he ' s counting on him , while they shake hands . Back at the Duel Field ' s start , Tori is still waiting for Yuma and angrily yells for him to come get her .
