[Duel Festival Day 2 - News Reaction]
GUYS!
That wasn't me! It's the same girl who's been messing up sushi carts and stuff for months now, but it's not me! I was backstage the whole time that was going on, I didn't even know anything was going on until a little bit ago!

[After an extended chase through part of downtown Domino, Yuzu has come to an alley near a tenement -- and unfortunately for her, it's here where she's kind of lost Shun entirely, despite keeping up with him probably longer than anybody expected.]
G-geez...! How does a guy that big run that fast...?! [She huffs and puffs a bit before she looks around.] Where the heck am I, even...uggghh...
HEY, KUROSAKI! WHERE ARE YOU?! [She keeps looking around, shouting out for Shun every so often. Pretty clear she's not giving up.]

Hmmnnn...
Hayate, Kachidoki and Shark...
...
That's fine. That works just fine.
I didn't get a chance to say anything to everybody at the end of my duel 'cause I was talking to Masumi, so I'll just say it here!
I know you guys are all way higher ranked than me. I know on paper, I'm completely out of my depth, here.
But while you guys were sitting at the top of the league, I've been fightin' tooth and nail to drag myself up, one duel at a time! I've already been dueling with no safety net for months now! I got a second chance to be in this duel...and I'm not gonna waste it! I'm gonna represent both of my schools with my Entertainment Dueling and I'm gonna win this duel AND this championship! My school's founder pioneered Action Dueling and now I'm gonna show everybody what we're capable of!
[Filtered from Isao, Hayate & Shark]
M'kay, so I'm kind of terrified right now. That's normal, right?

I did it! I made it to the final four!
Aaaaaahhh! I can't believe this! Thank you, Sora! Thank you so much!
I just ran a lap around the Duel College and I'm really exhausted and now I kinda need an ice pack on my back BUT I'M SO EXCITED! AAAAAAAAHHHH! This must be what it feels like to be Trena all the time!
I'm gonna do my best to shine as brightly as I can in the finals! I'll represent my schools with my Entertainment Dueling...and I promise, I WILL become the Super Junior Champion!

OOC: [Log + Event Thread]
Well.
I wound up spending the night at the Duel College. But I slept fine! So they released me let me head back to school. So I think besides some aches and bruises, I'm gonna be fine!
'Cept.
...sigh.
[Included is a picture of Yuzu...with a shiner on her right eye.]
'Cept this. I think I might start wearing sports goggles in my duels...
...a-anyway! My next duel's against Masumi now...huff...I'd better start preparing for that ASAP.

Soooooooo.
Who here knows stuff about magic.
Specifically, like. Magic items? That do magic stuff?
Just. Curious, not really asking for any specific reason here.
Also, um. Yuya and Sora. Sorry for running away from you guys like that! I was just a little...freaked out. By some stuff.

Bwuhhh. This is involving a lot more reading than I ever thought it would!
Sora is teaching me how to get better at Fusion Summoning...he wants me to read all these books on alchemy and stuff. At first, I thought he was just messing with me, but he says this is how he learned to do Fusion Summoning at his school and...I guess, after a little bit, it's sorta starting to make sense? Like, I can kinda see how it flows into how Fusion Summoning works...in theory, at least. I still haven't applied any of it yet.
It's all still really complicated....but if it makes me a better Fusion user, it's worth it, in the end!

[After her duel with Masumi, Yuzu quickly ran out of the arena. She just couldn't stand being in there with all those eyes on her after she lost like that.
Now she's crouched in a hallway in the Duel College a slight ways away from the arena. Her hands are on her face, pinching the bridge of her nose. Her eyes are tightly shut. Occasionally, she makes a little noise, but she's trying to keep as quiet as she can, so nobody notices her.
She really wanted to get back to her room before she did this, but that...didn't really happen. The last 48 hours (not to mention the last several weeks with her mad push to make it to the top tier of the rankings) have been too emotional for her and it's just all hitting her at once, now.]

Okay.
Do you guys wanna know my schedule? Here it is!
I wake up at school.
I go to classes.
When I'm done with classes, I hop on the train. I do my homework on the train.
I come to the city.
Then I spend all evening dueling at the college.
Then I get back on the train.
Then I come back to school.
Then I go to sleep.
Even if I wanted to, I don't have any TIME to get into brawls with duel gangs or mess up sushi carts or whatever! Yeesh!

Hokaaay....I got a long way to go if I wanna get into the top 8...but I can do it! I just gotta come up with a game plan! Those Ryozanpaku guys win a bunch of duels every day, I bet I can too!
Okay...game plan....game plan...
...maybe I should run more copies of Honest...how much do copies of Honest cost...
[...]
Urgh, this might be tougher than I thought...

[The following video was posted on Yuzu's journal, as well as several popular pro dueling discussion forums.]

I've got something to say to the duelist who calls themselves "Escher"!
My name is Yuzu Hiragi - you probably have no idea who I am, but guess what, that just means we have something in common, because I have no idea who you are, just like everybody else! You think just 'cause you did okay in one tournament, you deserve to be number one contender?! You think that makes you peers with a duelist like Wakahisa-sama?!
Well, I got news for you, it DOESN'T!
Wakahisa-sama has been a pro duelist for years! She's been cutting her teeth in this league as long as anybody, and in the last year, she's been, bar none, the BEST duelist in this entire country! She's the one who deserves to be number one contender, she's the one who deserves to be Action Dueling World Champion! You don't deserve to be in the ring with her - you're not even on her level! And I'm not gonna let you keep pretending without making you prove it first!
[Yuzu holds up her Duel Disk and activates it.]
If you wanna duel Wakahisa-sama to be number one contender, you're gonna have to go through ME, first!

Dude...
What was Yasha even doing there and...that dude -- that wasn't right!
This isn't what Action Dueling's supposed to be about...!

Izumi's clearly gone mad with power and in her delusional state, has begun spreading slanderous lies. Mr. Haita, you should fire her immediately.

Whoa....Strong Ishijima is already out! I can't believe it!
Akae-san moved on too...man, I don't see what's so funny about what happened to her. I've totally been in that situation. When stuff gets screwed up in an Action Duel, you just run, you don't even care in what direction it is. Who even puts that kinda effect on a monster, anyway?!
And...that duelist Escher moved on too...she knocked out another guy who's a really old vet...I guess she must be pretty good, too. She does a really good job of using her cards to her advantage, skating around like that...
