* [=CXyz=] Barian Hope. When Nasch said the card was the embodiment of all 7 Barian Emperors, he meant it. Barian Hope can use each of their Number [=C10X's=] effects per turn, and while he could detatch Overlay Units to do so, Nasch refuses as that'd be discarding them from his perspective, instead paying Life Points. Further, every time he does activate an effect, the respective Emperor manifests to do so with him. Even Vector, turncoat he may be, is given the same respect as the other six.

* Episodes 37 and 38 on both sides of the duel.
** Whilst Yuma is duelling, Astral is unable to come and aid him due to being attacked by Number 96. Without Utopia to defend him, he will be helpless, but he sends Utopia to Yuma anyway.
** And when Astral does finally escape from the key? Yuma starts off about how he doesn't need Astral to fight for him and he was totally fine on his own - Astral just smiles and tells Yuma that he's set everything up well.
** Gauche takes the final hit of the duel for Droite by redirecting the attack using a trap card. They would have lost either way, so doing this doesn't affect the outcome of the duel in any way, but he does it anyway.
** Gauche asks Droite to keep the duel with Yuma a secret from Heartland - Droite agrees immediately.
