Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V

Warning. This may contain spoilers for future episodes: This new information details the future duel between Yusho and Dennis. It will be revealed that Dennis was once a student under Yusho. Yusho will also be using a card which has tentatively been translated as Miracle Silk Hats. It is unclear whether the card will be printed or not as the article does not explicitly state.

Mods don't like /a/rc-v generals. Why not just wait until the episode is released?

>>142953678
Also from DMC

-Dennis was once Yusho's student
-Dennis is ordered to capture Yuzu, but comes into confrontation with Yusho. They begin a duel
-Yuya and his friends find a teleporter in an XYZ base, and uses it to teleport to the fusion dimension.

I would like to discuss the character of Akaba Reiji. I fear that he is being underutilized by the writers and may not reach his full potential as an important part of the plot.

>>142953632
Why did you make a new thread? There's already a new one made before yours. You're going to get us all fucked.

True thread:
>>142953613
>>142953613
>>142953613

Let's have meaningful discussion over there and none of this card-censored hentai. The hentai being carded is not good enough.

>>142953836
Who cares? The writers are wanking off Yuya and Shun these days.

Where did it all go wrong and why is it EGAO?

>>142953851
>Let's have meaningful discussion over there and none of this card-censored hentai. The hentai being carded is not good enough.
>Meaningful discussion

Not with a shitpost OP. People are clearly going to be talking about lewds again. At least this thread has vital and disussion worthy of an OP.

>>142953836
Reiji is old and busted. Edo and Kaito "off-screen character development" Tenjo are the new posse

>>142953861
You mean synchro right?

>>142953824
Did they mention when Yuya is going to Xyz? They just revealed a ranked up Galaxy-Eyes today, it would make sense for it to be showcased in a duel against Yuya. I would have thought that Yuya would duel Kaito one more time for at least 1 episode before heading to Fusion. Or does this mean Kaito is coming along with Yuya and friends? It'd be great if Jack and Shinji and the Synchro crew (plus Lancers) joined forces with Yuya in Fusion. Which it looks like they might because of the new Red Dragon revealed today as well.

>>142953632
What are the odds that Yuya gets his own Xyz monster during the Yusho battle? The Xyz monster could just be released in the Booster SP if it were a Dark attribute.

>>142954005
Pretty sure this is after episode 112 and onwards.

I think Edo will be the one going with Yuya to Fusion. I mean in a magazine we saw him without that long dress of his. It'd be weird seeing Edo being all happy and smiles to Yuya, while he was a huge dick towards Judai.

>>142954066
Yuya's getting no XYZ dude. Then again, they could pull of another muh bonds with Yuto. Although, him getting a fusion is very likely.

>>142953851
Not that guy, but I prefer this thread. Maybe next time you should made more interesting intro?

Tyler sisters hungry for Yuya was funny yeah, but not after you keep saying it for a hundred times.

yuyas fusion monster will be named "ethereal chaos knight" and will be a ripoff of black luster soldier

You mean a Fusion Pendulum or a regular Fusion? Yuya already got 2 Fusions, one of which is a Stargazer-Odd-Eyes upgrade and the other of which is a Performapal-Odd-Eyes upgrade. One of them (Rune-Eyes) was even a cover card. There's no way he's getting another regular Fusion. The only new boss monsters Yuya is getting are the Fusion Pendulum, an OEPD regular effect Pendulum upgrade, and the Hitotsu Ni Dragon.

>>142954259
Assuming this would turn out to be true, what is this? A regular Fusion or the Fusion Pendulum?

>>142954362
The DM ripoff was a regular Synchro, so I assume it would be a regular Fusion.

>xyz arc are less than 10 eps

>>142954101
My main concern is what do we make of the new ranked up Galaxy-Eyes Cipher Dragon and new Red Dragon Jack card if Kaito (and Jack) won't matter anymore.

The fact that they've made these cards makes me think the allies from Synchro AND Xyz (and maybe even Standard) will come to Fusion when the rest of the Lancers and Sora join up with Yuya.

Reiji and Kaito don't know each other so it makes no sense for Kaito and Sayaka & Allen to stay behind when Yuya goes to Fusion and THEN join forces with Reiji to aid Yuya in Fusion. Unlike Synchro, there's literally nothing left to defend in Xyz, and Yuya's clearly going to need all the help he can get against Academia so obviously he won't just go with Edo. I think Gong, Shingo, Shun, Kaito, Sayaka, and Allen are going with Yuya & Edo.
Maybe even Gloria and Grace are coming along?

>>142954636
What is this Jack card I keep hearing about? I thought that the synchro card released turned out to be a red-eyes card?

>>142954636
>there's literally nothing left to defend in Xyz
Wrong, there are scattered pockets of civilians and Resistance members. Next to nothing, but that's still meaningful for people who are fighting to protect what little is left of them. Not that I'm saying Kaito would be opposed to a direct assault on Academia.

>>142954533
Again, that's hard to believe when Yuya already got 2 Fusions, 1 of which was a cover card. If anything, the only Fusion Yuya gets is the Fusion Pendulum, which will almost certainly be the cover card for October's next booster pack.

>>142954746
If Edo and the Academia forces in Xyz join Yuya (which they will), then there's absolutely nothing to worry about because there's no one for Xyz to defend themselves from. Besides, Kaito is bound to shill this new Cipher Dragon at some point so either he's battling Yuya after the Edo duel or he's coming along with Yuya.

>>142954694
It's Red Rising Dragon, a RDA-looking Synchro that's coming out in a Rival Pack featuring Yuya's dimensional "rivals". It's defintely not a Red-Eyes.

>>142954694
Red Rising Dragon

>>142954825
Just because Edo defects, doesn't mean that everyone else will.

In fact, that'd be even more shitty since the writers would be taking character derailment because EGAO to a whole new level.

>>142954913
I'll take your point, but Kaito is still going to shill out that new Cipher Dragon eventually so how's that going to happen?

>>142954913
If the grunts watch Yuya's duel they'll be EGAO'd as well

This is the same show that resolved the topsies and commons ordeal by making them best buddies over a duel

>>142954977
>but Kaito is still going to shill out that new Cipher Dragon eventually so how's that going to happen?
by going to Academia??

>>142955081
Exactly.

>>142953824
Yeah I knew Dennis was Yusho's student since the moment he started playing Entermages and did the whole Entame shtick. Admittedly he does it much better than Yuya. I'm just wondering why he's still doing that shit when he works for Academia which is against that shit.

File: image.jpg (58KB, 329x479px) Image search: [Google]

58KB, 329x479px

So the problem is that neither Kaito nor Edo can job to each other yet because it would ruin their character?

Remember this guy? :^)

So I caught up on the last three episodes. They were kinda meh but a lot of stuff pissed me off.

1. Why is Yuya acting kinda arrogant again with his entertainment duel philosophy. He seems to be echoing his actions at the beginning of Synchro where he just took his dueling style for granted and tried to overwhelm his opponent with smiles and shit. I guess he's a bit better now since he's more focused and confident about it but at the same time he's still being stubborn about it like it will ALWAYS work and it's THE ONLY WAY. I also really fucking hate how he's making suboptimal plays too. Why do you pend summon Monkeyboard when you're better off using him as a scale? Why the fuck do you destroy all the jobelisk monsters rather than attack the ones who don't have monsters directly and take them out?

Speaking of which, why the fuck were the jobelisks allowed to attack Yuya when he didn't even make his first turn?

2. SINCE WHEN COULD THEY FUCKING SEE THE CARD'S EFFECTS? This just ruins a lot of the duels in this show now.

3. Really disappointed by Gloria and Grace. With just one duel all their villainous aura has been diminished and they're not threatening in the least just like what Yuri has become. Shit, was Yuya's dueling that potent to reach them so instantaneously and completely dominate them?

4. Characters are developing too quickly now. What the fuck happened to Kaito? Is he suddenly calm and collected off-screen? Did he just let those jobelisks go when he was way closer to carding Shun? Allen seemed to accept Yuya as a comrade, then vehemently denied his help when chasing after Sayaka, and then after beating the Tyler sisters he's like "Yeah you were my comrade all along man"

5. Pissed that Shun didn't get carded since something big needs to happen but all it takes is some chunks of rubble and he's knocked out cold after rescuing Sayaka? topkek m8

I know Yuya vs Edo is going to be more of this same bullshit but at least Yusho vs Dennis will be good.

>>142955061
Which was completely and utterly retarded.

In this case, it's worse, because they've been indoctrinated into believing that callous genocide is not only righteous, but fun.

>>142955182
Dear God the OCG effects of the D-HEROes suck. They reek of 2006 card design, they're just as bad as most of the GX D-HEROes

So I've heard a lot of people say ARC-V is the darkest YGO series? Can someone explain why? From what I've seen it doesn't look like the darkest series but has a balance of lighthearted scenes and dark stuff.

>>142960179
It isn't.

>>142959966
Yuri hasn't show his dragon yet, The manga might have different Starve Venom.

As for Yuto having the regular DRXD. That's probably because of poor foresight.
Yoshida probably only decided to give all Yus new dragons way later after the chapter was submitted.
Judai started out using anime HEROs in manga, only to go full manga original later.

1. I think you need to search up the word arrogant. Also Yuya just mentioned in 108, that his way of dueling is the only thing that's stopping him going hitotsuni, and he doesn't want to get taken over by him. As for the monkey, that was definitely a blatant and stupid mistake.

2. Literally happened before.

3. Gloria and Grace are still evil they want their revenge with Yuya. Only Gloria shown signs of interest in entame dueling.

4. They're pretty much rushing XYZ arc since they want Fusion to be developed as possible considering that'll be the peak of the show.

5. Literally Kek'ing myself.

Edo gonna get a 2-parter duel. Hope he show some good stuff.

Seriously, Dystopia is pretty damn weak compared to Cipher and Scarlight.
What were they thinking.

>>142964220
Some of them were meta back in GX days.

>>142964224
the fusion feels like a card that should have been long ago in gx
the real question is what were they thinking making a trap card fusion, its cool but just give me a quick play fusion.

>>142964257
in ocg they still play heros since they have stratos, thats the real problem.

>>142964224
>What were they thinking.
Heroes sell no matter how shit they are.

>>142964408
I hope to god thats not true, cause we are missing out on some actually good heros cards like vision heros, counter traps, and stratos.

>>142964220
I exècted them to give Destiny Heroes an actual strategy. Sadly, they continued the tradition of having D-Heroes with random effects that don't really help each other much.

>>142964408
And they probably do, I mean there are a lot performapals and few RR cards that are complete shit, but are the bread winners when it comes to shilling in Arc-V.

What anime characters will be getting slots 12-17/18 in INOV?

>>142955476
It wasn't though. The City has been established to fully believe might makes right. Yuya expressing his message and WINNING was a perfectly reasonable way to modify the city.

If you're talking about the Council proclamation afterwards, them saying "OH WE JUST REALIZED WE WERE WRONG" was blatantly implied to just be them covering their ass before the Dimensional War fucks things up.

Also, we never actually saw what became of the city after them getting incredibly moved over the duel. There is no issue with the conclusion of that arc.

>>142965224
I get a feeling its Performage since Dennis is coming back.

>>142965343
But Dennis doesn't come back until after the set is released.

>>142965343

>>142955428

Yuya's trying to avoid hitotsu ni

They've been able to do that before.

Grace/Gloria are intrigued by Yuya, but they're not reformed. Do not mistake their intent.

Kaito came to his senses somewhat as a result of Sayaka's outburst in 105. It was pretty blatant from the way he didn't card Shun and simply walked away without a word. Also, he has no reason to let Academia have their way with the Resistance or its allies, so him helping there isn't out of character at all; before or after 105. The only questionable bit is why he didn't card Obelisk Force, but that could've been just a whim that doesn't need much looking into.

Allen accepted Yuya at first, but then when he heard he was Yusho's son he was like "fuck this kid" because he viewed Yusho and anything related to him as unreliable. He trusted Yuya because he proved himself. It's a fairly cleanly handled relationship, honestly.

They're definitely saving characters getting carded for Fusion arc; hell Sawatari's cards were just printed, so he's as good as dead. Shun getting carded here would be too sudden.

>>142965785
I would like to think that maybe Yusho uses a new theme now, because I'm sick and tired of fucking Performapals.

>>142961806
How do I make this? What program or site?

>>142965990

>>142965990

Well yeah, it'll likely be Fusion Pendulum as its cover.

>>142966300
Why? They're fun to use.

>>142966578
BUT THERE'S SO MANY OF THEM.
Not content with all the ones the anime craps out that Konami insists on printing every single one of, they made OCG originals in the Starter Deck to boot.

>>142966578
probably butthurt cus he has nightmares getting his ass whooped by dracopals and pepe

>>142966282
Kaito also used Action Card when he was pretty much REEE SHUN IS USING OUTSIDER'S TECHNIQUE

They definitely fucked up with Kaito. If they want Kaito to turn around quickly, they should just have Shun successfully convince him few episodes ago.

>>142966634
You honestly think Konami cares? As long as they're making money, all is good for them.

>>142966634
Performapals are an even bigger cancer than Blackwings. Pretty sure they have more members by now.

>>142966641
I felt like his shift was convincing enough considering his behavior before and after Sayaka's little freakout. He only went REEEEE because he was trying to push "fuck having comrades, fight on your own", but he ultimately couldn't bring himself to do it when he was presented with the opportunity to live up to his words before the duel and turn Shun into a card.

He recognized his own softness.

Was it a bit rushed? Yeah. But, I felt it was effective.

>>142966300
What if he uses entermachines

>>142964220
I dunno.
Disc Commander is sickeningly broken.

>>142967112
I dunno, I rather liked how stoic and almost wordless he was in 109. It felt like he was begrudgingly assisting the resistance because in spite of his bullshit rants, they were ultimately his allies.

>>142967163
Actually, not really. It's more an expert at making the audience infer development from the expressions of the characters.

No one really develops off-screen aside maybe sora and he had two eps spent with him sorting shit out in synchro.

Shun pretty blatantly accepted the lancers from 49 onwards with the exception of the lancers he didn't meet during the BR as shown by how he treated Gon as opposed to Dennis in 58. Dennis's constant antagonizing of him and his affiliation with the Lancers in 75 + Reiji altering his disk clearly made him lose trust for the Lancers as shown in 81. Hell, he still didn't seem to really trust Reiji in 95 as a result. He calmed down in 82 thanks to having a bonding moment with Crow, but he only really worked well with the lancers he fought alongside in the BR.

The character development is pretty well strewn out, the issue with character development in Arc-V is that it's rarely presented as the focus of any given situation, so it doesn't have the impact it should unless you're actively trying to pick up on how Y situation relates to X development. It's all fine development, but its presentation leaves a lot to be desired at times.

Real nice way to start off your point.

>It may have better animation than Arc-V but the story and characters are still shit just like in Unova.

Then you obviously haven't been watching. Ash has gone through a shitload this arc and isn't treated like a rookie. He doesn't forget type matchups unlike in Unova, grows from his battles, uses strategy, evolves his team and mentors other trainers.

>>142970184

>>142970258
That isn't the only character development. Evolving his strategies, learning from his mistakes and using things he learned from past encounters are all things that develop his character. Especially the bonding he does with his Pokemon. We just saw him get overconfident and get bodied by the 8th Gym Leader because his apprentice already had 8 badges while he had 7.

>>142969442

>>142970748

Which is often called the best the series has ever been. He rebounded from BW which is often called the worst part of the franchise.

It's still development which is the point.

>Oh you mean that Special snowflake Greninga?. That has to be the cringiest thing i've seen Pokemon done yet

Oh please, it's just Mega Evolution with a new coat of paint. Megas themselves were cringeworthy. This is at least taking the bonding aspect of it and making him have to work for it. Instead of slapping on a bracelet and evolving his Pokemon easily. It's supposed to be about trainers with strong bonds with their Pokemon yet you can do it in the games with zero friendship on a Pokemon. It was lazily done in the games

This isn't Shun v Sora with two bloodthirsty hounds trying to fuck each other over so no, this won't be the best duel in Arc-V. Nothing has surpassed that duel as of yet.

>>142970852
I don't think anyone is saying it's amazing. It still has filler. But it's certainly better than Arc-V.

>>142971354
And probably nothing will since except the great duel the mystery that we caught glimpses of in the previous episode was revealed full force in that duel. If anything comes close is Reiji playing Yuya like a damn fiddle or any last duels that will reveal the supernatural mystery.

>>142971399
>But it's certainly better than Arc-V
Its not. Mainly because Arc-V is a way more serious Show than Pokemon

>>142971494
Not with Yuya at the helmet it isn't.

>>142961773
Nah he's being arrogant. He's taking his dueling for granted yet again. If he at least acted like he did in his second duel with Jack, then I would be fine since that's the right attitude to have, but everything I've seen from him so far shows me that he's just using it as a tool again just like he did in Standard.

>>142971494
Being a serious show doesn't make something good. Arc-V has no tension in it because Yuya is a super hero who can't lose these days because he'll die if he does. Ash can lose Pokemon battles and grow as a character. Ash vs Wulfric was better than any recent Arc-V duel and that isn't even the best battle. Arc-V only had chuuni characters like Shun, Kaito and Edo going for it at this point. One just got rocked, one just did a face turn and the other is about to do a face turn. Arc-V has lost all steam because the main character is valued above all else.

>>142971581
Yuya doesn't need you to be fine with it lol

>>142966282
>Do not mistake their intent.

I know they're still "evil". My point is any impact they have is pretty much gone now. I can't take them seriously anymore and they don't look as menacing as they did facing Allen and Sayaka.

>>142971399
Not even close. It's enjoyable, but the main quartet doesn't have any real chemistry, so it falls flat on that end a lot of the time.

I prefer them over the edgy try hard of Alan.
Ash can lose Pokemon battles and grow as a character.
>So? That happens all the time in Pokemon and in the end he gets reset. If he could stay a good trainer then i would agree.

>>142961773
His play against Twins were fine. He totally fucked up against Obelisk Force though.
Went to destroy the monster instead of direct attack is just plain stupid when he have no backrow to protect his monsters and Ancient Gears wreck Action Cards.

>>142967888
>infer development from the expressions of the characters.

That's still lazy as fuck. I don't want to infer anything. I want to SEE these characters go through change. I want to SEE them self-internalize what is causing them to change from what they were like before. Just showing some events here and there and some small changes in character isn't really good enough.

Sure it's "character development" since the characters have literally changed but I don't count as well executed development.

>>142971608
>Yuya is a super hero who can't lose these days
Are you a gold fish or something. He nearly lost to Obelisk Force.

This is a mature show for mature viewers such as myself.

>>142971812
Exactly he never lost to the point of being killed. He got saved.

>>142971690
How don't they have any real chemistry? People love this group together so much that they want them all to go to the next region. People can't even remember that Gon is Yuya's best friend because he gets treated like shit by the show. The current Arc-V group have no chemistry and don't even spend much time together

>>142971770
Except he hasn't gotten reset in XYZ. He's the same. You don't seem to understand that each generation of Pokemon is a completely new series for a new audience of kids. D/P to B/W to X/Y are three different series. Not the same. Even if he gets reset in S/M that doesn't change everything that happened in X/Y. There's a reason people treat him as a different character in each arc.

>>142971894
Well duh. Do you want Yuya to die or something?

Ash can afford loses because no one dies in Pokemon.

>>142971849
Oh so you're watching the dub which changes dialog?

>>142971885
I'am not saying Arc-V is mature or anything but the story and characters are way more interesting than in XYZ. Their problems too. You have Yuya who was conflicted with his type of dueling. Ash just loses one time gets all depressed and recovers in the next episode. I have seen that more times that i can count already

>>142971714
He doesn't need to drop entame. I'm fine with him using it, but what I'm not fine with his attitude towards it. In Synchro he realized that he couldn't let go of entame but at the same time he realized he can't just assume it will work everytime he uses it and that he needs a clear, focused goal which entame will help him achieve. He was very serious about it but also true to the entame style.

Here in Xyz it's like he forgot all that and he just knows it will work again on anyone. He thinks he's the "shit". Look at the duel against Grace and Gloria. Not once did he get scared of the thought of losing or anything, even when he and Shun were at 300 LP and they were at 10k LP. It's like he knew he was going to win and impose his entame will on them, and lo and behold that's exactly what he did. I just feel he's taking it for granted again and as a result becoming less practical which isn't good.

>>142971812
>nearly lost

So you get the point? Yuya can't lose because he'll be carded if he does. He has to be saved or he has to win at the expense of other characters which stunts his growth.

>>142971902
>People love this group together so much that they want them all to go to the next region
Don't lie to yourself thats just because of fucking Serena. Hell they even made a petition begging Serena to stay with Ash.

>>142971902
>The current Arc-V group have no chemistry and don't even spend much time together
This. I mean the groups that were seperated have no what so ever a decent chemistry. They should've made Yuya, Yuzu and Gon one group since their synergy is greater than what we have right now.

>>142971988
Yuya don't need to actually lose to fail and realize he need to grow.

Heck, just look at the Kaito duel. Eventhough he didn't lose, he realise he was too naive with Kaito.

Of course, that went to shit with Kaito got off-screen development.

>>142971902

>>142972074
See? Thats a stupid reason to be edgy.

>>142971966
>Ash just loses one time gets all depressed and recovers in the next episode.

He loss like 4 times in a row. To Alain, to Shota, to Diantha and to Wulfric. Each time he got discouraged and his Synchro Mode kept petering out causing him and Greninja to become at odds. They both felt at fault. Damn you obviously don't watch.

>>142971608
>Yuya is a super hero who can't lose these days
Have you forgot all the battles Ash won in XY? He was literally unbeatable for a lot of fucking time unlike Yuya

>>142972158
How the hell is he edgy? Being angry isn't edgy and Alain is always smiling and looks forward to fighting Ash. He even started collecting badges because Ash told him about the Pokemon League.

>>142972178
>to Diantha
That one didn't count. He just fainted cause MUH GRENINGA.
>Each time he got discouraged and his Synchro Mode kept petering out causing him and Greninja to become at odds. They both felt at fault.
The show isn't that deep

>>142972141
Judai gets in several ties after 100 and they all grow his character. Even winning against Brron caused Judai to "grow" because of what happened during the duel. Yuma lost Astral and grew due to being apart from him. Including getting his ass kicked over and over. The other members of the cast were growing during this time too. Yuya didn't grow after tying with Edo. Yuya didn't grow after Kaito. Yuya didn't grow after the twins. Nobody is growing in Arc-V right now. Kaito happened off screen, Shun is sleepy and the twins are boring. Edo is about to drink some Smile Potion and then we leave this dimension. So fun!

We were discussing about win-loss record here rather than character growth. (Note how Yusei vs Kiryu is mentioned)

Except spoilers imply he may beat Edo in their duel and without Yuto's possession helping him, with his way of dueling and that Edo actually softens up. That's a huge difference to their first encounter where Edo didn't even want to listen to him and barely tied against Edo.

>>142972593
I was always talking tension. I don't care what the other person was talking about. I even mentioned Yuya can't lose because he'd die. The problem is that since we know he can't lose all tension is lost from the duels. There is nothing at stake because Yuya will always be bailed out by something.

>>142972628
How the fuck is that character growth? Yuya going from barely tying with Edo to beating him isn't character growth. It's bullshit. Yuya doesn't need the win over Edo. Edo needs the win to shill his cards and show that he isn't a chump who can't win a single duel. He needs the win to show he's worthy of his position in Academia.

>>142972349
Yuya absolutely grew after Kaito. He recognized his efforts to reach him were too naive due to the fact that even if he wanted to level with him, there was no way for him to do so because he didn't understand the depth of Kaito's grief.

Sawatari showed evidence of his growth in 100 by not being selfish as fuck. Ep 3 Sawatari would've absolutely eaten that food, but ep 100 Sawatari did the right thing in spite of his hunger. He's overall more attentive to the struggles of others at this point.

Gongenzaka is pretty static, yeah. But, he's been static since the very beginning.

Shun's development has been slow, but 105 capped off his synchro development really well and 107-109 shows him slowly opening up to the Lancers and requesting their assistance when early-mid shun was content to go on his own.

>>142972785

Don't worry. Synchro arc isn't nearly as rough watching it in bulk. It's far too slow from eps 65-73, but by then you're invested enough that it's easy enough to power through to the great stuff in 74-79 and 84-99. Nowhere as bad as recommending 5Ds and then watch as they try to go through the Pre-WRGP nightmare.

Actually, Yuya can still lose and avoid dying. Allen, Sayaka, Sawatari and Gon only got bruised after got their ass whooped.

Why are you fixated on Yuya dying anyway? No matter what type of story it is, the protag always have plot armor.
Does that mean there can't be tension if the MC is guaranteed to survive until the end?

>>142973309
>Masumi
Masumi was just a tool to make Yuzu stronger. In the long run, Yuzu's character has gone to shit, which makes Masumi's character no longer of any worth or it's as if, she wasn't there to begin with.

>>142973445
>Masumi says, "I won't tolerate the person who beat me not winning the tournament!"
>Yuzu promises to keep winning
>even has an end title card
>proceeds to lose against everyone except Chojiro

>>142973412
Those characters avoided dying because Yuya saved them. He's a super hero after all.

How am I fixated on Yuya dying? That's how the show works. You lose to Academia and you get turned into a card aka you die. Protags have plot armor but protags can still get the crap beat out of them. Luffy gets his shit kicked in all the time. Ash lost 4 battles in a row recently and became incredibly depressed. Kamen Riders get fucked up, sentai heroes get demolished. Do they always come back and win? Yep. But that is a journey. Yuya tying with the head of Academia in that character's first duel cuts all the tension for their next duel. Yuya can already match Edo. I have zero respect for Edo as a duelist right now. He has no wins and his revealed cards are garbage. I have zero respect for the twins as duelists and characters right now. I have zero respect for Academia as a whole right now.

>>142973639
Those characters didn't die because Tyler Sisters are idiot sadist. They could just card them right there and Shun and Yuya couldn't do anything about.

As for getting his ass kicked in, Yuya already lost to Reiji, Jack and Sergey.
If Edo failed against Yuya, then the problem is with Edo, not Yuya.

>>142953632
GOTTA GO FAST.

Also, YuyaxGrace porn, when?

>>142973772
They didn't card them because Yuya and Shun turned up. They already said they were going to do it. Them not immediately doing it is just plot convenience which is a problem with their characters.

Edo losing to Yuya is a problem with the writing and his character as a whole. Yuya gains nothing from winning and shouldn't win in all honesty since their last duel required Action Cards and Yuto interference. Yuya hasn't become a better duelist since that duel. He grew after his loss to Jack which made his win believable. No such luck against Edo. Then again Edo is pretty scrubby in this show so who even cares at this point? Hope the next series doesn't pull this shit with the main character.

>>142974111
All of the characters have their power level unexpectedly drop for no reason other than to cater to booster packs.

Hopefully next series the MC won't have such random spikes from being absolutely shit to becoming God and instead she'll be trying to hide her true strength.

>>142974111
Seems you just butt hurt your favorite characters get shitty win record.

Its not Yuya who is invincible, its just Edo who is just weak.

>>142974256
I don't know how you got that from my post. I praised Yuya for growing after his duel with Jack to be good enough to beat him. By the same token that doesn't work with Edo. I'm more upset the villains aren't treated as serious threats this late in the series. The twins are jokes who only beat fodder and Edo is a joke that can't beat anyone. The villains of this whole arc were pathetic.

>>142974506
Because you kept calling Yuya super-hero who could never fail when in the previous arcs, he lost several times and failed repeatedly.

>>142974506
I don't take as much issue with the Tyler Sisters simply because Yuya has grown so much in Synchro that him being able to steamroll mid-level academia forces feels right to me.

I can agree that him beating Edo at this point would feel a little bullshit, but it really depends more on how it's done, so it feels questionable to make such a judgment about a duel that hasn't aired yet.

>>142974655
And that somehow gave you the ability to tell who my favorite characters were? Yuya is being treated as a super hero. who changes how people think after a few encounters.

>>142974731
Then why are mid-level Academia forces being shoved in the show this late? They aren't treated as mid-level either. They wiped out a whole division and were specifically called to deal with the Lancers. They lost too quickly and shouldn't have been in Xyz at all. If they beat someone credibly before losing it would be fine. Instead they beat fodder and took tons of damage from kids.

> Yuya is being treated as a super hero. who changes how people think after a few encounters.

That's because how shonen works. Do we need to spend 100 episodes of him convincing Allen or something?

Also, from what I saw, it seems you particularly frustrated at the fact Edo will lose to Yuya.

>>142974731
Edo shouldn't be stronger than Jack. In the show, Edo is shown to immature who focused on his grudge over his duty and even Tyler sisters don't take him seriously.
Yuya beating him isn't improbable. Yuya was too focused about Yusho at the first duel. If Yuya is calmer and more focused, him beating Edo doesn't sound improbable to me.

>>142959966
Maybe Yuto gets a new dragon later on in the manga?

>>142961806
Where did you get this from?
How can I make stuff like that in Japanese using the same font, template, etc?

>>142974929
>That's because how shonen works. Do we need to spend 100 episodes of him convincing Allen or something?

No one cares about Allen. Allen accepted Yuya from the start and they're on the same side. People care about the villains who kill people being turned that easily. Not even Naruto turned Gaara as easily as Yuya does with his villains. Being shonen is no excuse. Bad shonen maybe.

>Also, from what I saw, it seems you particularly frustrated at the fact Edo will lose to Yuya.

Because Edo is the main villain of this arc and he's going to lose both his duels? Because Edo was hyped by the staff as a returning character? Because every other returning character has won at least one duel? Because Edo has a whole pack coming out and he's just losing leading up to it?

>>142975153
They weren't turned at all though. The only villain Yuya has turned at this point was Sora.

Grace and Gloria got off on his entame dueling style, but they're still fully loyal to Academia.

>>142975153
Yuya failed to get through Obelisk Force. It was just Grace being a slut, not Yuya being perfectly able to turn people into his side. .

>>142975153
Splitting hairs, but one was a tie.
And why does he need to win to promote a pack?
Edo as a character has enough of a history that he can be used to shill whatever.

Also, up until now, entame has been anything but Super Converting machine.

Actual success rate in like 60 episodes has been low

>>142975153
Unlike Naruto, Arc-V doesn't have all the time in the world to circle jerk with characters that dont play an important role in the end game. Also at this point, I wouldn't even call this a proper arc for it to have a villain in the first place.

>>142974898
>>bland as fuck Ash
Are you serious? Ash in DP still had personality unlike the Ash of XYZ who is bland and boring as fuck. He is an empty shell of his former self
>Brock that did nothing
He was ok in DP and its not like he has ever done something of importance in the Anime before.

>>142975396
Arc-V is a three year series. it has had tons of time to do things but instead spends that time dragging along.

>>142975153
Why are you acting as if this is Edo's last duel or something? This last segment of Arc-V will still focus on Kaito, Asuka and Edo as returning characters. Jack had 3 duels, Crow had 3 duels, Asuka will? get duels, Kairo already had 2 duels and he'll most likely shill his new shit soon. Stop acting as if this is the last time we see Edo, whether a villain or not.

>>142975507
>He is an empty shell of his former self
Since Unova. the Ash from Kanto to Sinnoh was the true Ash.
>Brock that did nothing
You could say the same about Bonnie, Serena or Clemont.

>>142975579
Oops meant to >>142974898

>>142975369
A tie isn't a win and Edo considers it a loss. He needs to win because it hypes up his cards. If all his cards do is lose then why should someone care about them? Sure, they're Heroes but they aren't even good Heroes. They do nothing to help any type of Hero deck so competitive players aren't buying them. Arc-V doesn't even have a large audience so it's not like casuals are going to be flooding stores for them. It's essentially a wasted pack unless the headliner actually promotes it. What's the reaction to the commercial going to be?
>Drill Guy!
He was shit
>Dystopia Guy!
He was shit
>Dark Angel!
He was shit
>Edo appears
He was shit in this show

Wow! Why not buy them on the secondary market if you collect Heroes? They're all bad so they'll be cheap as hell.

>>142975579
Citron had a story arc
Serena has her own goals
Eureka has a story arc with Zygarde

>>142975687
Serena lost her important duel and yet moonlights sell way more than melodious could ever sell (heck I think Konami just gave up on that archetype, since the alot of the nips can't be bothered with Yuzu). Shun lost 2 of his most recent duels, and yet his RR sells like hotcakes.

It doesn't help that Edo is popular as fuck, so him losing wouldn't affect his cards selling in hindsight.

>>142975687
Because kids buy character cards regardless of victory ratio, they just like to collect anime shit and people who actually play the game do not care about W/L ratio.

Yuto barely did anything between episodes 38 and 105, and people bought Phantom Knights regardless.

It's silly reasoning that does not reflect what actually happens

>>142975687
Who knows. The third archetype could easily save the pack.

>>142975840
>yet moonlights sell way more than melodious could ever sell

Dude stop. We have zero sales information.

>>142975854
Arc-V has shit ratings. No one is watching it. Yuto's cards are selling because they are good. Nobody gave a shit about them before they started getting played at a high level with BA.

>>142975840
Pretty sure Ryo and Manjoume are more popular than Edo. Though D-HEROs is indeed popular.

All these heroes. Now only Jaden's Clay Guardian from the anime, Aster's manga only eight main deck Vision Heroes and Jaden's manga only six Masked heroes remain.

>>142975989
Exactly the point.
Kids buy anime cards regardless of quality of cards and character strength (hence why people bought elemental heroes or level monsters), actual players buy what is good.

Bringing in the 'how can they make him look weak by not winning, they will not sell cards' is a fucking silly argument

>>142975989
Especially when Melodious got a major buff with the Cyber Angels to fix many of their problems(searcher, recycling of spells). Sure there are better variants of Cyber Angels exists, but you can't deny that Melodious Cyber Angels are pretty decent.

>>142976315
How is that exactly the point? Yuto's cards didn't sell until they were good. No one talked about them. Kids aren't watching Arc-V so how are they going to buy the cards? Elemental Heroes were presented as very strong in the GX anime anyway. So kids bought them. As were LV monsters in Yugi's Silent monsters, Armed Dragons and Horus.
Competitive players aren't buying Destiny Soldiers from the cards being shown so far.
Arc-V has terrible ratings so there isn't a large kid audience to buy them

>Bringing in the 'how can they make him look weak by not winning, they will not sell cards' is a fucking silly argument

You haven't proven that at all and actually agreed with me.

Why the heck you care whether Destiny Soldiers sell or not. It has nothing to do with the anime.

Plus, its too early to judge Destiny Soldiers when we barely know about Abyss Actors and totally in the dark with the 3rd archetype.

>Odd Eyes Dragon despite it being clear that fucker doesn't exist anymore
>Gandora even through Yugi only used it once

I've been triggered. For Yuya that hippo of his should of been that and for Yugi how the fuck is it not Dark Magician Girl? Finally, Yuma even got his own Number at the end of the freaking anime remember? Future Number 0 Utopic Zero.

Only Flame Wingman and Junk Warrior make sense.

>>142977227
What leak are you talking about?

>>142977227
I don't recall that part.

>>142977275
The same one that spoiled a Red Eyes xyz and a Psi frame synchro. there's really not alot of anime in this invasion of venom

>>142977325
Yeah, I also noticed we don't know any of the anime slots from 12 onwards

>>142977275
Before JUMP reveals, someone leaked that Abyss Actors and Darklords gonna be in Destiny Soldiers.

>>142977287
That guy said the new Darklords have different kanji than the old one.
Besides all of these are just rumours, I won't put much thought until it get officially revealed.

>>142976848
>Abyss Actors
I thought you guys hated dub names

>>142977383
They didn't announce Darklords though and if I remember the leaks also said that there would be no changes to the OCG banlist although there were some changes so I think there are some truths and lies mixed into these leaks.

>>142977325
>a Red Eyes xyz
another one? goddamn

>>142977421
It's not a dub name, it's the English name used in the original Japanese anime. At one point Sawatari's monsters hold up a sign that says Abyss Actor.

>>142970258
You could replace Ash's name here with Yuya's.

>>142977421
It's an okay retranscription.

>>142977492
Ash has been doing it for over 10 years though.

Yuya is guaranteed to get his conclusion while Ash is nowhere in sight.

>>142977492
Last time he was depressed was in HOTELS.

>>142977482
They need one, their fusions are a lost cause. It's best they have good xyzs.

>>142977679
Doesn't the Gemini support make their Geminis playable thus supporting Fusion?

Same thing with Red-Eyes Insight. The Fusion card is searchable now.

>>142977679
Well isn't it only really one fusion? Though i wouldn't mind seeing a retrain of the meteor dragon since Mr.T used it as well.

>>142977732
still aren't as good as the xyz. cards that require set up in order to do their job are always bad see Odd Eyes Rebellion Dragon and most synchro monsters.

So wait Xyz arc is actually ending already?

>>142978019
Yup. Everyone's heading to Fusion in a few eps. It makes sense to do it this way; we've seen everything there is to see in XYZ over the last 100 eps and it's basically just a ghost town with a few remnants holding together.

All that remains is to see what went on between Yusho and Edo and we'll have learned everything about XYZ.

They've actually been my favorite part of the XY series. Watching Musashi actually lose with grace in her final Tripokolan was actually really refreshing.

>>142971494
I prefer Arc-V to XY (Though I think XY&Z has made me more hyped then Arc-V has in a long time), but is this really how we argue which is the better kids show? By which is more serious kids cartoon? I didn't know we were on youtube.

I want the Pokefags to go back to their containment board. GET THE FUCK OUT. GET THE FUCK OUT NOW

I want yugioh characters and monsters cosplaying pokemon, and I want atem cosplaying moltres

I would argue Vanguard G is a better show. While it lacks a focus of the plot it is a much better character-centric show than Arc-V or Pokemon. The first 25 episodes are devoted solely to building up the main characters and it's good that there's not too many of them either so they all get equal spotlight. The fights are all rushed and not done properly but it's because they're all tools to convey the fighter's will. It's really similar to Kaz philosophy on duels.

Also the shilling is nowhere near as shameful as YGO. There is not a new card every episode and the fights don't even take up much of the episodes either so there's plenty of time for more characterization. It's a pretty comfy and well-done show imo.

Also Chrono > Yuya.

In the movie, is Obelisk an actual card or does he just put his fist in the earth and Obelisk comes out?

>>142977732
Fusion in a Red-Eyes deck works best using Red Eyes Fusion.

That card lacks synergy with Gemini since they aren't considered Normal monsters in the deck thus making summoning Archfiend Black Skull Dragon in a deck full of Gemini Red Eyes monsters impossible unless you have Summoned Skull and that means putting at least two useless normal monsters in your deck.

Plus, Inferno Fire Blast to take advantage of those 3200 points of direct damage.

Basically, Red Eyes Gemini and Fusion don't mesh that well.

Spark World makes the Gemini Red Eyes variant more playable but it would have to focus on XYZ not fusion.

>>142980952

I mean I'll say it a million times, the moment the show stopped caring about following Yuzu and Reiji was the moment the show became weird bullshit

I don't even get how you make the main antagonists and plot structure so tied into Yuzu and Reiji and then, like, not develop them.

And don't tell me "Reiji never did anything", he was a lot more proactive in the first 50 episodes and his "keikakus" were actual keikakus, not just a catchphrase he'd say every other episode or so as a glorified peanut gallery
