"Red-Eyes Black Dragon" Rating Score by みめっと

In the original Kingdom arc, Ryuzaki spent a lot of money to buy this card, which he won against a hurriedly decided 《Ante》during a duel and received it. The monster that became Jonouchi's 《Card of the Soul》.
It was also one of the Normal Monsters whose flavor text said it was a "rare card", hence the monster whose text was later changed.
It's amazing how such a monster has grown to such a splendid level, and it brings back memories of those days when I fantasized about the Emerald-Eyes Gold Dragon...
A level 7 monster with a total attack and defense value of 4400 is quite low even by the standards of the first period (the total attack and defense value of a level 7 monster in the first period is 4300 to 4900) along with Gaia the Fierce Knight. It has been treated as a disappointing superlative monster for a long time due to its performance that is far from Blue-Eyed, but as a result of repeated strengthening over a long period of time, it is now sufficiently differentiated from Blue-Eyed. It has become an irreplaceable presence.
The Red Eyes illustration that was used in the original Bandai version, which has long been desired to appear in OCG, will now appear in OCG. By far, I like the original OCG Red Eyes that was included in the regular pack of the first season.
