Deus ex Machina by definition is when some new event, character, ability, or object solves a seemingly unsolvable problem in a sudden, unexpected way. Why am I repeating this? Cause some people don’t know the definition and call Ray and the En cards a Deus ex Machina so lets prove that false. 

New Character 

Ray was introduced in the same episode as Zarc. And she’s fully introduced the very next episode. She’s as new of a character as Zarc who she beats so she doesn’t fit in this way. And for the people saying Zarc’s influence was felt earlier, that’s wrong if anything Ray’s influence was felt earlier. We only saw Zarc’s influence in episode 37 when we saw the signs of Ray in episode 7. 

New Ability or Object

Some people might be mad that the En cards beat Zarc BUT we’ve seen their influence LONG AGO when Yuzu’s bracelet teleported Yuto when Yuya arrived. The show and the fandom focused on her bracelet’s ability for so long that some people wanted Yuzu to stay away from the “plot” thus showing that Ray’s powers have been around since the start of the show. And if you claim to say the En cards are asspulls, the reveal that the En cards ARE THE BRACELETS thus the En cards having the power to stop Zarc has not only been part of the show since the start BUT it makes sense since Yuzu’s Bracelet has long since prevented the Dragon Boys from meeting and fusing. 

New Event

The episode that formally introduces Ray shows her BEATING ZARC. So her beating Zarc again was NEVER and has NEVER been a new event. Similarly Ray has been active in-universe since episode 131 a good NINE episodes before Ray came back to defeat Zarc and she was around even after Reira lost to Reiji so Ray also didn’t just come back out of nowhere to save the day, she’s always been there. 

Thus as you can see by Ray DOESN’T fit any definition of a Deus ex Machina and any idiot that thinks she does … please read/watch or play other media.

Hey remember when Yuya first summoned Enlightenment Paladin and literally reversed time (which actually was happening and not just an animation since Shinji was confused and Solid Vision actually does bring these monsters and by extension their powers into reality) and later when Nirvana High Paladin was summoned a tear in reality was formed? Yeah so call me crazy but these were Yuya uses manifestations of Zarcs power as uniquely his own. Odd-Eyes Rebellion Dragon and later Raging Dragon working as beacons of light to protect Smile World and spread it’s influence in the OPs is also this effect because Zarc is manifesting these powers in an attempt to both protect and absorb Yuya into his own mentality of hatred but Yuya being the literal manifestation of a pure wish morphs them back into what Zarc would have originally wanted

There is one in particular that has stayed with me ever since I first saw the scene…

“No matter how many you bring out…”

“Insects are insects!”

The combination of Yuya’s voice acting, the animation, the music, just everything, made this one of the most badass and threatening moments in the whole show to me.

Berserk Yuya already had a very sinister aura to him, but he didn’t have a real hard-hitting line until this moment. The double meaning between the multitude of monsters his opponent has and that Serena joined Ruri against him. No matter how many people go up to fight him, they’re nothing but weak, puny insects. Numbers won’t do anything, and that ended up being shown in the final duel against Zarc. Their numbers did nothing.

This moment just hit me really hard, with the explaining of the game being used to build up the tension, the gradual reveal of how the moment this line was out of Yuya’s mouth, Serena and Ruri had undeniably lost.

It’s just a very cool and well-written line, delivered frighteningly well, with everything coming before and after it driving it home further and further.
