Izumo (Character)

Izumo is a character that appeared in the Duel Masters Victory V3 series. His voice actor also voiced El Rio, as well as Forte from the Megaman Battle Network series.

Izumo appears to have the same age as Katsuta Kirifuda, though his personality is outrageous. He seems to not care about friends or foes, and puts high priority over his goals.

The Oracle religious cult was hidden under the mask of a large company. Its chairman was Yomi and Izumo played the role of the executive who also had the Book of Oracle under his protection. He was charged with finding the Book of Outrage.

Izumo's subordinate is Zorro Star, a guru dispatched by Yomi.

Anime
Izumo appeared in the 10th episode of Duel Masters Victory V3 where he challenged Katta to a friendly duel in exchange for some curry bread. There he used a Light/Fire Arc Seraphim deck.

During the duel, Izumo requested that Katta joined the Oracle cult and was refused. He then revealed his God Nova creatures and broke all of his shields, going for the direct attack and defeating him.

In the 12th episode Katsuta defeats him with Crossfire, Wicked Millionaire. Just before his defeat and disappearance, Izumo uttered the following words: "Yomi-sama! Yomi-sama, wither the world!"

It was later revealed that Izumo had approached Puramai Rei and drawn her into the Oracle cult. As a sign of this, he tattooed a zero mark on her cheek. Furthermore, it was shown that the creatures camouflaged as humans because of a "dimension reactor" inside the Oracle's headquarters.

In the 31th episode, Izumo reappeared in a cocoon. Brahmin and Detroit Techno went on to capture cards for their cult in order to revive their fallen master. Later, in the 35th episode, Izumo was resurrected and fell out of the cocoon surrounded by bandages. While he was lying in the cocoon, he remembered that he and his sister had been separated in the creature world millions of years ago. Thus his new plan was to reunite with his sibling and bring about the Oracle World on planet Earth.

In the 36th episode, Izumo shows Rei a flashback from the Oracle castle in which Yomi entrusted him with the Book of Oracle, after which he went outside the face against the invading army of Outrages. It was then that the two siblings got separated. At first Rei denied all of this, but during her duels against Detroit Techno and Brahmin, she remembered her past life as an Oracle and in the end she rejoined her brother. Soon tehreafter, Bhutan was also turned into an Oracle.

In the 38th episode, it was also revealed from the Book of Oracle that Oracles and Outrages are from the same race, but what separated them were their misunderstandings and conflicts.

Once Izumo attained the power of the Oracle Jewel, he had become so obsessed with power, that he started forgetting about his minions, as well as mistreating Rei. This lead to the deaths of Detroit Techno and Brahmin, as well as to the betrayal of Rei and her rejoining her former friends.

Once Izumo attained the Rage Crystal, he united the two gems and faced against his traitorous sister. In the duel, he used their power and became the "reborn creator of the universe". As such, he has apparently killed Rei and has expanded his power over the entire planet Earth, turning it into the Oracle World.

Manga
Izumo, Zorro Star and Yomi appeared later in the manga, when the Alien invasion fell upon the Earth.

In order to get the Rage Crystal, Izumo dispatched Brahmin and Detroit Techno.

Izumo was depicted as extremely ruthless and he showed a smile when he saw Detroit Techno defeat Katsuta.

During his duel against Katsuta, Izumo used God Izumo, Lawless Humanity as his trump card, but he was ultimately defeated by Katsumugen, Climax.

In a last futile attempt to take over the world, Izumo tried twisting around the planet, but he was arrested by the space patrol after his defeat.
