Arc Rebellion XYZ Dragon expanded art and creator comments

“‘Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon’ evolves into a new form, which looks as if it’s equipped with a will of iron and the strength of steel. One of the details that I wanted extra focus on in my request was ‘the eruption of blue flames’: While this monster is not part of either the “Phantom Knights” or “Raidraptor” themes, this common trait among them came to life. I would be happy if they are used in conjunction keeping these connections in mind. Wouldn’t you agree that this visual is perfectly fitting for a trump card to use when you are cornered, yet you refuse to surrender and you wish to rise in revolt? I think that the flavor of the change from ‘Dark’ to ‘Arc is pretty good, but I also wonder…how would that be applied to the other monsters?”
