Yu - Gi - Oh ! ZEXAL - Episode 133 " Vector the Victor " , known as " A Goodbye Is Only for a Moment . . . The Sad Fate of the Siblings " in the Japanese version , is the one - hundred and thirty - third episode of the " Yu - Gi - Oh ! ZEXAL " anime . It first aired in Japan on December 15 , 2013 and on Hulu on November 24 , 2014 . Summary . Marin orders " " to attack " " . " Ragnafinity " roars as its scythe cuts through the air and hits " Manipulator of Souls " , prompting Vector to cringe . The attack hits and Marin silently thanks Dumon , as she was able to win thanks to the power he left her ( these events are cut from the dub , as they took place in the previous episode ) . However , as the smoke from the attack clears , Vector is still standing , minus the armor he had gained from " Don Thousand ' s Throne " . He laughs maniacally and Marin asks how this is possible . Vector reveals that " Don Thousand ' s Throne " has another effect . When an Xyz Monster he control s is target ed for an attack by a monster who has more ATK than Vector ' s Life Points , he can send " Don Thousand ' s Throne " to the Graveyard to immediately move to the End Phase of the current turn . Marin is surprised at that effect , but Vector tells her to shut up - he is not through yet . " Don Thousand ' s Throne " also allows him to Rank - Up the attacked monster , which Vector describes as infusing it with Chaos . Marin simply says " what ? ! " ( " a Chaos monster ? " in the dub ) , while Vector declares a Chaos Xyz Evolution and Special Summon s " " in Attack Position . As Kite ' s shuttle nears the Moon , Orbital 7 informs him that there are no atmospheric pressure anomalies within that would interfere with the landing . He adds that there is one more " photon mile " to the lunar surface . Kite ' s vision is blurring , but he stares at the craters and calls this the birthplace of the " Galaxy - Eyes " ( in the dub , Kite mutters that he and Orbital are almost there ) . His " Galaxy - Eyes Photon Dragon " card starts glowing , surprising him . The shuttle ' s warning system suddenly enables and Orbital panics , saying that all systems are unresponsive . The shuttle descends into a nosedive , spinning as it goes . As it nears the surface , a stone tablet rises up from it , which the shuttle crashes into . As the debris from the shuttle falls to the ground , Orbital 7 has entered his " astrosuit mode " , giving Kite a means to breathe in space . He descends to the surface and stares at the tablet , on which is inscribed the same legend as the one he found on Earth . Thirteen smaller tablets now rise from the surface , surrounding Kite completely . Back at Sargasso , Alito now has two " Battlin ' Boxer Big Bandage " in front of him . Girag wonders why Alito used that Spell Card to turn his Warrior - Type monsters into Beast - Type ( in the dub , Girag boasts that this will be a knockout win for him ) . He doesn ' t know what Alito is planning , but asks him what he could do , having already lost his powers as a Barian . Tori mutters Alito ' s name ( in the dub , Tori mutters , " oh no " ) , while Yuma says the situation has worsened . Astral tells them he knows what Alito ' s plan is . Alito declares he ' s coming at Girag now and overlays his two Level 2 Beast - Type monsters to Xyz Summon " " in Attack Position . Girag recognizes it as the " Number " from his ruins . His chest starts glowing with yellow energy and he screams in pain as Ponta ' s spirit frees itself . It flies towards Alito and takes form , chanting " pon pon pon pon pon " . Everyone looks shocked and Ponta explains to Alito that he is the spirit of Girag ' s " Number " , spinning around dramatically . Yuma and Tori are glad to see Ponta is alright , while Alito asks if Ponta would lend him his power so they can beat the crazy out of Girag . Ponta agrees and Alito declares he ' s activating the effect of " Sandayu " . He detach es an Overlay Unit to Special Summon a " Kagemusha Raccoon Token " , whose ATK will become equal to that of the strongest monster on the field . The token appears and takes the form of " " , meaning its ATK is 2600 . Alito orders the token to attack " Giant Red Hand " , but Girag laughs , reminding him that only the token will be destroy ed , since it is not a " Number " monster . As the token vanishes , Alito says he knew that . Girag asks why he ' d attack , then . Alito activates his face - down " Last Counter " as his monster was destroyed by battle . This will reduce the ATK of the monster that destroyed it to 0 and increase the ATK of a " Number " monster he controls by the same amount . Energy streams from " Giant Red Hand " into " Sandayu " , increasing its ATK to 3600 . Yuma cheers , saying that if the " Number " from the ruins defeats the " Over - Hundred Number " , Girag ' s curse will be broken . Alito clenches his fist and orders " Sandayu " to attack . Ponta joins the attack , calling Girag " his lordship " ( in the dub , Ponta refers to Girag by name ) . Girag screams and his Life Points drop to 400 . As the attack hits and " Giant Red Hand " is destroyed , Alito urges Girag to recall his true memories . Fires rage as the door to Commander Kiraku ' s residence opens . Backed by soldiers stands Don Thousand in the same form he took in Alito ' s past - a cloaked man wielding a huge scythe . He claims he ' ll rewrite Kiraku ' s destiny - he ' ll be beset by anger and sorrow , believing that his friends and comrades betrayed him and sent him to death . Kiraku drops the " Sandayu " card and Thousand adds he ' ll be going to the Barian World to aide in his resurrection . He throws " " , which burrows itself in Kiraku ' s chest , causing him to scream in pain . Back in the present , Girag hits the ground in the aftermath of the attack , his Barian form fading back to his human one . Alito is in pain , breathing heavily . Vector laughs again , telling Marin its time to tango . He draws and activates the Continuous Spell Card " Cursed Chaos " . This stops Marin from activating monster effects unless she pay s 500 Life Points first . He adds that with Marin ' s Life Points at only 500 , this means she can ' t use the effect of " Ragnafinity " . He proceeds to activate the effect of " High Manipulator of Chaos " , revealing that he can detach a Chaos Overlay Unit when his opponent controls a monster that has more ATK than their Life Points . This will Special Summon a " Manipulator Token " . " High Manipulator of Chaos " spits numerous red puppet strings from its mouth , which entangle Marin . She screams as her soul appears to be ripped from her body . Vector reveals that the ATK of the token will be the same as her current Life Points . The token appears in the form of a featureless doll with Marin ' s hair , suspended from the strings of " High Manipulator of Chaos " . He adds that the token can attack as many times as " High Manipulator of Chaos " has Chaos Overlay Units , meaning three . Marin points out that Vector ' s monster has only 500 ATK though - it cannot stand up to " Ragnafinity " . Vector asks if she really thinks that ' s the case and suggests they test that theory . He orders the " Manipulator Token " to attack . The doll flies at " Ragnafinity " , who slices through it nonchalantly . Marin questions why Vector would suddenly commit suicide like that . Vector laughs and tells her she is out of luck - the " Manipulator Token " cannot be destroyed by battle and Vector will take no battle damage from battle s involving it . The token reforms and Vector adds that " High Manipulator of Chaos " will gain ATK equal to the damage he would have taken . Marin ' s face twists in despair and she backs away , saying there ' s no way this can be happening . Vector says its time for round two , ordering the " Manipulator Token " to attack again . The result is the same as last time , so the ATK of " High Manipulator of Chaos " rises to 12 , 400 . Vector declares his third attack as Nash watches on . He urges Vector to stop , even offering up his own life for Vector to do so ( in the dub , Nash pleads with Vector to let Marin go ) . He can do nothing though , as he is still chained up in the Sphere Field . Girag opens his eyes and now remembers being brainwashed by Vector and Thousand . Looking up , he sees Alito , who falls to one knee , saying it looks the curse has broken , which means his hard work wasn ' t wasted . Girag gets to his feet and starts to move towards him , but Alito yells for him to stop - they are still in a Duel . Alito reveals that " Last Counter " has one more effect . When the battle ends with the destruction of the monster whose ATK was reduced to 0 , he will take damage equal to that value . Nearly in tears , Girag tells him that ' s ridiculous - that means Alito will lose . Alito calls Girag the best friend he could ever ask for . He turns to Yuma , wondering if they could have become friends too . Addressing Yuma , Astral and Tori , he apologizes . He says he thought he could win , but tells them they have to defeat Don Thousand now . With his wounds as they are , this is as far as he ' ll be able to go . Yuma tells him to wait , but Alito gets to his feet and tells him it ' s been a pleasure to have met him . Yuma screams his name , but the Trap Card explodes , pushing Alito backwards , chunks of pavement flying up with it . Alito ' s eyes close as he hits the ground . Girag screams his name and runs towards him , while Tori covers her eyes with her hands and tears stream down Yuma ' s face . When Girag reaches him , he vanishes , turned to energy . Girag screams his name again . The ATK of " High Manipulator of Chaos " has now risen to 18 , 600 . Marin simply mutters Vector ' s name , still enraged . Using his Ray voice , he asks if Marin is ready to die . Her eyes just narrow and Vector declares his attack . The energy blast from " High Manipulator of Chaos " destroys " Ragnafinity " and Marin is thrown backwards , reverting to her human form as she goes . As her eyes close , she simply says " Reginald . . . " . Nash mutters " Rio . . . " . Their souls are able to meet , floating in midair . Rio tells Reginald she was glad to have walked the road of fate with him for so long . She says she has to say good - bye once more though . She tells him to live on , but never to forget he ' s not alone . Reginald mutters her name and reaches out his hand , but Rio just repeats that it ' s good - bye , adding " my dear brother " . Their souls fly in opposite directions , Reginald yelling her name again ( Rio ' s entire conversation with Reginald is cut from the dub ) . In the present , Nash screams her name . Rio ' s body hits the ground , the ring she received in her childhood , rolling through the throne room . She mutters that this is the end of her destiny . In her mind ' s eye , she sees herself and her brother reunited again , this time as children . They stand before a castle in a field of flowers , holding hands ( Rio ' s vision is also cut from the dub ) . As her body finally fades , she says she wanted to stay with Reginald for just a while longer . Where her body lay float two small energy spheres - one white and one light blue . They fly towards Vector , who absorbs them , saying that the powers of both Dumon and Marin belong to him now . He adds that he feels he is dripping with power , but that there are four more souls to go . Thousand appears behind him and orders him to head to Girag ' s location immediately - they have a problem . Back on the Moon , Kite waits , looking around at the monuments . Orbital informs him that a body of energy is rapidly approaching them from Earth . Earth is now a red sphere , engulfed by Barian energy . A yellow beam shoots out from it and lands right in front of Kite . Within it is Mizar , still in his human form . Kite comments that he ' s finally come . Mizar responds that he had to - he heard the howl of the " Galaxy - Eyes " . He adds that this must be the land of the dragon ' s legend that Vetrix ' s sons spoke of . Kite mutters both Trey ' s and Quinton ' s names ( in the dub , Mizar says he knew that Kite would anticipate his arrival and that it ' s disappointing that Trey and Quinton will not be joining them ; Kite replies that their demises were all thanks to Mizar ) . Mizar reveals they sacrificed themselves to buy Kite and Yuma some time ( in the dub , Mizar also admits that he respected the brothers for what they did ) . Kite closes his eyes for a moment out of respect , then informs Mizar that this is where the key to the Numeron Code lies dormant ( in the dub , Kite says thanks to the Arclights , he can prove to Mizar that he is the true " Galaxy - Eyes " master while the Barian Emperor says he is not sure about that ) . At Sargasso , Girag kneels , clasping the red ball of energy that is Alito ' s soul . Tears stream down Tori ' s face and Yuma angrily asks why Alito did that - they were just starting to become true friends . Girag begins to cry as Alito ' s soul is absorbed into him . Stuttering , he chokes out that he ' ll never forgive Don Thousand and Vector for this . Suddenly , Vector ' s laugh rings out and a portal opens . Red tendrils of energy shoot out towards them . Realizing what will happen , Girag shoves Yuma to the ground , away from the tentacles . They go straight through Girag ' s chest and then vanish , along with " High Manipulator of Chaos " , who sits in the portal ' s entrance . Vector chides Girag for getting in the way , but adds that with all those useless emotions in Girag , a hole has formed in his heart , through which Vector can take his soul ( in the dub , Vector says he could have taken Yuma ' s powers had Girag not intervened , assuming Yuma did have powers in the first place ) . Vector ' s eyes glow red and he laughs , while Yuma turns to Girag , asking why he saved him . Girag responds that his best friend in the world risked his life to protect Yuma - Girag was just returning the favor . He tells Yuma the rest is up to him . Ponta reappears , telling Girag he won ' t leave him again - he ' ll stay by his side forever ( in the dub , Ponta says he knew that Girag would do the right thing ) . Vector ' s hand glows briefly with energy and Girag and Ponta vanish , replaced by three spheres of energy - red for Alito , green for Girag and yellow for Ponta . They fly towards Vector . Yuma yells Girag ' s name , while Tori yells Ponta ' s . Purple flames engulf Vector as he absorbs their power . Yuma curses and Vector says the power is overwhelming - just like when he absorbed Marin and Dumon . Yuma says he must be lying and Vector recalls that Yuma and Marin , or should he say Rio , used to be good friends ( Vector does not make this recollection in the dub ) . Tori covers her eyes again , while Yuma yells Vector ' s name , enraged now . Vector claims he ' ll gain the power of all Seven Barian Emperors , crush Yuma and Astral and get his hands on the Numeron Code - that will make him the omnipotent God of all reality . He suddenly senses Nash on the move though . Within his Sphere Field , Nash yells Vector ' s name and resumes his Barian form . The sphere shatters . Vector tells Yuma and Astral he ' ll crush them after dealing with Nash . He adds he is looking forward to it before vanishing through his portal . Yuma runs for the portal , but it closes before he can get there . He falls to his knees , tears streaming down his face . Back on the Moon , Kite explains that the power of the Numeron Code may be equal to that of a god , but it does not just work by itself - it requires a key . He reveals that the key is made of the two " Galaxy - Eyes " . He got this information from another monolith he found in the remains of Jinlon ' s ruins - and Jinlon himself explained how the code was created . Jinlon had appeared to him and complimented him on finally locating the place . Jinlon claims that what lies here is the secret of how the Numeron Code was created by . As dragons are blessed with much longer lifespans than humans , they naturally know much more than them . That is why humans revere dragons - sometimes to the point of fear , other times living side - by - side . He explains that when the universe began , there was a single dragon - a huge , yellow , serpentine one . That dragon used all of its power to create the rest of the universe , as it was lonely . By doing so , all of its power was gone and the dragon would have died . Wishing to see the future of what it had created , the dragon used the last of its energy to shed a single tear . This tear contained all of the dragon ' s emotions and knowledge . The tear traveled through the cosmos and eventually arrived at Earth . The impact was what created the Moon . Kite says he understands and Jinlon confirms his thinking - the Code is on Earth and the key was placed on the moon . Jinlon further warns him that the dragon knew what would happen , so it borrowed the power of the " Numbers " in order to hide its existence . To seal the great power it had , the dragon cast a spell . Kite recites the legend for Mizar - " When the Dragons of light and time clash at thy place of birth , then shall the eyes of the galaxies truly awaken for the first time , opening the gate to a new world . " ( in the dub , the legend is " Dragons of light and time born in a land hidden by light , a Duel on this unseen soil will reveal the Code " ) Mizar says it must refer to " Galaxy - Eyes Photon Dragon " and his own " " . Kite says the two have to clash here - the winner will break the dragon ' s spell and obtain the key to the Code . Mizar comments that if that legend is true , then the two dragons are simply cards filled with Barian power - meaning that the Barians are the true owners of the Code ( in the dub , Mizar remarks that the stakes have never been higher ; whoever wins will be closer to obtaining the Code ) . Kite says that ' s true - for now . Mizar asks what he means . Kite thinks back to the the third dragon depicted on the tablet . He opts to say no more and tells Mizar he ' ll find out if they fight . Mizar seems interested and agrees - they must settle it - and find out which of them is the strongest dragon tamer . Mizar Barian Battlemorph s , his D - Pad appearing on his arm . Kite ' s also appears and the two yell " Duel ! " Featured Duels . Marin vs . Vector . " Duel continues from the previous episode . " Turn 8 : Marin " " attack s " " . As an Xyz Monster he control s was target ed for an attack by a monster who has more ATK than he has Life Points , Vector activate s the effect of " Don Thousand ' s Throne " , send ing it to the Graveyard to negate the attack and move the current turn directly to the End Phase . This also lets Vector Rank - Up that Xyz Monster . He performs a Chaos Xyz Evolution , overlay ing " Manipulator of Souls " with its Overlay Units to Special Summon " " ( 0 / 0 ) in Attack Position . Turn 9 : Vector Vector activates " Cursed Chaos " . Now , Marin must pay 500 Life Points to activate a monster effect . Vector activates the effect of " High Manipulator of Chaos " , detaching a Chaos Overlay Unit to Special Summon a " Manipulator Token " in Attack Position . Its ATK and DEF become the same as Marin ' s Life Points ( 500 / 500 ) . It attacks " Ragnafinity " . The " Manipulator Token " is not destroyed by battle , Vector takes no battle damage and " High Manipulator of Chaos " gains ATK equal to the battle damage he would have taken ( " High Manipulator of Chaos " 0 → 6200 ) . The " Manipulator Token " can attack as many times as " High Manipulator of Chaos " has Chaos Overlay Units attach ed , so it attacks " Ragnafinity " two more times ( " High Manipulator of Chaos " 6200 → 12400 → 18600 ) . " High Manipulator of Chaos " attacks and destroys " Ragnafinity " ( Marin 500 → 0 ) Alito vs . Girag . " Duel continues from the previous episode . " Turn 3 : Alito The start of the turn is skipped , but Alito now control s two " Battlin ' Boxer Big Bandage " and has used an unnamed Spell Card to change their Type s to Beast . Alito overlays his two Level 2 Beast - Type monsters to Xyz Summon " " ( 1000 / 1000 ) in Attack Position . He activate s its effect , detach ing an Overlay Unit to Special Summon a " Kagemusha Raccoon Token " . Its ATK is equal to the monster with the highest ATK on the field - Girag ' s " " ( " Kagemusha Raccoon Token " 0 → 2600 ) . The " Kagemusha Raccoon Token " attacks " Giant Red Hand " . The latter card is not destroyed by battle since the " Kagemusha Raccoon Token " is not a " Number " monster . Alito activates his face - down " Last Counter " . As " Giant Red Hand " destroy ed a monster Alito controlled , its ATK becomes 0 ( " Giant Red Hand " 2600 → 0 ) and the ATK of one " Number " monster Alito controls is increased by the same amount ( " Sandayu " 1000 → 3600 ) . " Sandayu " attacks and destroys " Giant Red Hand " ( Girag 4000 → 400 ) . At the end of the Battle Phase , " Last Counter " inflicts damage to Alito equal to the ATK of the monster that was destroyed ( Alito 200 → 0 ) Featured cards .
