>Episode 4 aired!
How did you enjoy episode 4, "That delusion is raging"?

Ruuko was relieved that Tama was alright, but Tama says nothing...
Without knowing Ulith's (in Iona's body) motives, Tama and Eldora's battle begins.

<strikethrough>(Thank goodness, now I can use all of my Tama Arts again...)</str>

>Tama VS Eldora! Time to see Eldora's power!

At the start of battle, Ulith forces Tama to use "Wish Crisis".
She isn't having a lick of fun.
Here is the board layout.

"Improvement of Historical Fact Sarie" was trashed by Wish Crisis, and two "Fictional Love Ciel" were summoned.
TL Note: This is named wrong in the wikia
It seems like Ulith is using a deck focused around Angel SIGNI.
Back when Ulith was a LRIG card she used Devil SIGNI though...

The battle reaches its midpoint.
Though "Chorizo In The Fantasy!" was called out, Chiyori actually uses "Cross Crash Flash" ((Or I suppose Cloth Crush Flash))
If you actually say that in a card shop battle, then your opponent probably won't know how to react, so please don't.

The board layout is now like this.

(***Just before, "PLUS RUSH" was used, and the top card of Tama's Life Cloth "First Archangel Arch Gain" was put in the trash)

"Cloth Crash Flash" has the heroic effect of "Look at the top card of your opponent's Life Cloth, and if it does not have a Life Burst then place in in the trash."
The card's effect should have about a 50% chance of hitting. However...

A misfire! The top card of her Life Cloth was Servant D...

>(You serious?)
Chiyori is not the type to only enter battles with the certainty of victory, but rather the kind to bet all or nothing.
If it were just a card game, that wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing... but but it wasn't a good idea with Ulith as her opponent.

>"Get Bound..." What an incredible expression Ulith has
On the next turn, Ulith uses Get Bound to send Eldora's Water Phantom Pearl back to her hand.
In an effort to win, they begin using their huge amount of Ener and cards in the hand.

The final board at the end of the turn was like this.

In the first half of the game, a huge gap was created.
The game proceeds to its second half with Ulith overwhelming...

>"I can't... attack."
In the second half, Ulith lined up several Archgain to make a firm barrier.
Eldora at level 4 used her prided effect to banish an Archgain, but unfortunately was unable to attack because of Baroque Defense.
All of her moves are being read.
And then on the next turn, the Archgain she worked so hard to banish was brought back with Salvage.

The second half's layout was basically this. It's really quite harsh...
(***Please forgive how messy the Trash areas look)

And now, the final turn. She finishes it with "Arch Aura".
However, she didn't simply use Arch Aura, but also added the 4th wave Art, Fafnir.
On top of that, No Gain's Life Burst effect took place on her previous turn, so there's not a single way to stop what's coming.
Ulith won without a trace of resistance.
((Goddamn, good job whoever writes these battles))

>(No, that deck isn't fun at all...)
And there you go, Eldora's battle in the anime ended far too quickly.
This marks her second loss, so please enjoy guessing what will happen next.

Eldora will get her Congratulation Card in this November's WIXOSS PARTY. That's pretty funny, she's drinking an energy drink for Charging

It's an extremely cute illustration, so please, please make your way over to the next WIXOSS PARTY!

>The novelization's author, Futase Fumio

Chiyori absolutely loves the Wixoss novel.
It seems that Futase Fumio must have knowledge of the Selector battles from the content of the books.

Ruuko and the girls made contact with Futase Fumio... but what will come of it? Look forward to finding out!

>Extra: Grandma's deck

Grandma uses the 4th wave brand new "Type Three Abundant Girl Midoriko" which stops at level 3.
It goes amazingly with Phantom Beast Shienko, also from wave 4.
If you think about the date this aired, it's likely that she bought this deck on day one.
She might even be secretly taking part in the WIXOSS PARTYs.

Also, notice how perfectly she lines up her cards. We should follow her example.

In any case, see you again next week!
