Don't know about zexal but arc-v was revealed a good week in advance in weekly jump. It's possible they might reveal it in weekly jump this week but if they don't then it's only a 5 day wait for jump festa. Doesn't make much difference at this point.
>>
>>150826925
Zexal was first revealed in Feb VJump on Dec 13, 2010, Arc-V was first revealed in Weekly Jump on Dec 11, 2013.

VJump leaks will be early this week since the magazine is coming out on the 17th rather than 21st so leaks could be as early as tomorrow. Odds are we'll find out the series in VJump or Weekly Jump in the next 2-3 days before the festa.

That's pretty much the result of how dull and rushed it is. You can easily argue that the previous spinoffs had more emotion and interesting duels compared to ARC-V's final act. Kensho Ono's the only VA that seems like is trying.

That was revealed in episode 3 or 4? I forgot exactly. If I didn't had any plans to watch it all sometime in the future, I would've dropped it again right there.

Alternatively, I could just go read the Yugioh manga or play all 3 Mega Man Star Force games again.

That post was shit. You can't talk about a tensionless series and then praise Arc-V. Arc-V duels are terrible. They took the Zexal formula of sit on boss monster and made it worse by adding in Action Cards that only the main character uses. . Zexal had better villains too.

>>150830471
Arc-V did have tension, well it did until around the end of the battle royal where the antagonists were confirmed to be a complete joke.
This was once again confirmed around the middle of synchro as well.
Arc-V also removed tension because if you fought Academia and lost you got carded. Would the protagonist get carded? Of course not.
>>
What if the new MC of the new series is one with normal hair again?
>>

>HITOTSU NIIII
>>
>>150830699
>Arc-V also removed tension because if you fought Academia and lost you got carded.
The tension was mainly removed when Academia never invaded Standard(ignored as an retrieval mission) and Synchro(Leo literally ignored for a retrieval mission) as well as not having any of the Academia win until Yuri did something in 123(leaving a lot of people hating him and the rushiness).
>>
>>150830950
I don't care about the protagonist, but I want to go back to when the other characters had realistic (if stylized) hair.
>>
I still dont get why Reira cant join the duel, guy looks fine to me.

I mean Yusho was somehow crippled on one leg and got DARKNESS smashed through a fucking wall: Not just like Reiji who get pressed against it. But literally flew through a wall with bricks around him being smashed to pieces and all the shit.

And I assume he flew only through one wall because thats what we were shown onscreen. But assuming Yuri carded Yugo just 5 meters away from Reiji and Reira, which would be fucking pathetic, I assume Yusho got smashed through some more walls.

Yet seconds later he stood up and went to duel. And these two fuckers are now leaving it to a guy who clearly has not longer any control over his egao mode.
>>
So who do you think has suffered the most during the series? For me it's definitely Shun, because he lost his home, his sister (who even isn't his real sister), his best friend and he is contantly getting hurt by ridiculous things because writers just don't wan't screen time for him.
>>
>>150830950

>>150831604

Because it would be inconvenient to the plot. Like how Shun gets arbitrarily taken out of commission by tasers or rocks for the sake of someone else's spotlight

This. Arc-V perfected the art of killing tension and anti-climaxes to a much higher level than Zexal could ever dream of accomplishing.

>>150831789
Compared to the rest his is very normal

>>150831910

That seems impossible, considering Zexal killed any possible tension 4 episodes in.

Reira only purpose was to be a moron and join Ray's bandwagon when in reality it would have made much more sense if she manifested in Yuzu during the Yuya/Reiji v. Leo duel and spoke about what would be rather.

Except Yuma lost multiple times after episode 4 and duels like his first one with Kaito were full of tension. The result sometimes isn't as important as the journey. You know Yuma can't lose often but it's nice to see how the characters grow and evolve during those matches.

Yuma also lost against Kaito in the episode before Zexal II started as well.
Although it wasn't a life-risking duel or anything, it was a pretty good duel and it showed great character development for both Yuma and Kaito.

The issue is that Yuma doesn't often grow during his duels. So they end up way fucking worse to deal with on average.

There's a definite case to be made for Shark, Kaito, the arclights, and a couple of the barians who all have duels that strictly work to develop them, but it doesn't make the endless amounts of filler Yuma duels any less terrible.

But that's wrong. Yuma does grow through his duels. It's like you didn't watch Zexal. Yuma is a selfish careless person early on. He doesn't start showing how he feels about people until he duels. Like against Kaito. In their first duel, Yuma realized just how fucked he was and screamed Astral's name in fear when they realized they were about to lose and Astral was going to die. That led to a training arc which led to Yuma and Astral acquiring Zexal due to their bonds. Then you have the whole Haruto arc. Everything that happened during the WDC Duel Coaster section that had Yuma feeling hopeless until Gauche dueled him, the final Kaito duel of Zexal, Yuma being afraid of Tachyon which led to the hospital duel with Shark etc.

Yuma's dueling tactics definitely improved as the series progressed, I guess that approving it would probably be a different story.

His duels against Gauche and Alito are good examples of this, as he won against them without help from Astral.
There's also his duel against Kaito before the Barian arc started, and his duel against Shark after his encounter with Mizael.

Filler duels don't cancel out the meaningful duels. Every protag goes through tons of filler. That's what happens when you have 3+ year series that shill a product. Yusei and Yuya are the only protags that actually regress as their shows go on.

Dennis I can believe due to Dennis saving Yuya vs those jobbers from Kachidoki's school. He was a traitor, but he still at least helped Yuya get over that initial emotional hump with DRXD through the power of entame.

Tyler sisters are definitely kinda what the fuck though. Like, I get that they did an everyone's friends ending at XYZ arc's finish, but still. They had no actual relationship with Yuya whatsoever.

You can thank Konami for that. It's not enough that they constantly dick the shows over in other ways to sell more cards, they bought up 4Kids' corpse solely so that it could continue ruining YGO's dubs rather than letting some more competent team do them. As a result, YGO is the only franchise still in 4Kids' death-grip. It shows.

Just add it onto the mountain of other #FucKonami things.

I'm actually kinda hoping they take the DSoD bait and go back to the DM era for a bit. Not that I'm against a proper YGO 6 down the line, but I think we need a break from new mechanics and I think people are gonna be apprehensive about getting attached to a new cast after how poorly ARC-V's was treated after the first season. Their safest bet would be to go pander to nostalgia while DSoD hype is still riding high.
>>
>>150853334
>and I think people are gonna be apprehensive about getting attached to a new cast after how poorly ARC-V's was treated after the first season
I really doubt the repeat/longtime watchers are their primary concern. If it was, wouldn't it be just as easy to piss them off by meddling with DM in another inevitably drawn out shounen? There's the risk of possibly damaging the franchise further, including the original, when DM could be more safely shelved and successfully mined for nostalgia again a number of years from now.

>>150840749
The problem with Yuya is that he started as an annoying, skilless borderline-autistic MC. And it's hard to root for such a person, because I don't feel like he deserves it. Before he gets gud, his early wins are solely protag armor.

And it doesn't help when they make a great deal out if him putting Gogogo Golem in defense as a sign of him becoming better. Like, wow, you managed to play a starter deck-tier card 100 episodes in, after Astral explained it to you.

I sounds like nitpicking, but in the end, I couldn't fire any admirable, or relatable about Yuma. He was one of those kids you find online that make anime decks and cry about the meta.
>>
>>150855043

>>
>>150853334
New mechanics are the only thing I care about desu. The game is stale as it is, I don't want 3 more years of this.
>>
Have the following in the next show:

>Official rules of the game (including starting at 8000 LP)
>More emphasis on deck based tactics as a whole instead relying on that 'one' card
>More variations of victory (regular deck outs and burns)
>Duelist who are NOT complete dumbasses and can tell that when a guy summons a monster that has seemingly no attack points or a really low attack point, it usually has an effect that will fuck you if you attack it.

Any of these and already I would be intrigued.
>>
>>150854901

>>150855043
Didnt you watch the first 50 episodes? They were amazing
>>
>>150855342
>Official rules of the game (including starting at 8000 LP)

Supposedly they are doing it to keep duels short, then still find a million ways to negate attacks, reduce damage, prevent destruction, etc.

Just cut all that bs, it's super easy to write OTKs even with 8000 LP
>>
>>150855342
These are minor and will do nothing to affect the quality of the show

Arc-v was the most inclusive and competitively-wired series in terms of summoning methods and certain strategies and it was still complete shit. If anything I'd rather they put full focus on the story and regulate the duels to being bursts of coolness like Vanguard G

Arc-V is a painful lesson in teaching us that all the potential in the world means jack if you decide to throw away the core humanity you gave to the entire cast after 50 episodes

Next show could be about timeloops, or it could be about kids trying to win locals, what matters is how they approach the characters. If they go full Ono it'll be shit no matter what

The early 4kids dubs of Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh weren't that bad. The openings especially were good.
>>
>>150855137
I sure as fuck can. It's humble.
The writing staff has proven they can't handle something as large scale as this at this point in time. Arc-V isn't even really about the Dimensional War; that war that's hardly explored at all beyond two raids on two cities during two tournaments and a brief glimpse at the restlessness of the resistors messing around in the remnants of their already destroyed city.

The "war" is a joke; because it lacks what makes even the most basic war story compelling. The progressive growth of a soldier, his connection to his comrades, and the ideals of both sides. Academia doesn't have ideals; they're psychopaths waiting to be dicked down by the only person who does; Sakaki Yuya.

ZEXAL was a better story about a war.

Rank the rivalries from best to worst. I'll start:

>Yusei/Jack
>Yugi/Kaiba
>Yuma/Kaito
>Judai/Manjoume
>Yuya/Reiji

Before the DMfags lynch me for not putting Yugi/Kaiba first, let me say that their rivalry is classic and a lot of fun, but it just isn't as fleshed out as Yusei/Jack. Yusei/Jack had an entire arc dedicated to it which is probably a top 5 arc in the entire franchise. Plus they and their ace monsters have more interesting parallels to draw between.

I thought there has to be some sort of rivalry to compete.

The second he revealed it to be a hybrid, I was pretty ticked. Why in the name of holy matrimony (hitotsu ni) would he (and Jack) ride around in circles instead of just standing and doing it? Heck, Jack just parks his D-Wheel to duel halfway through (meaning he rode around and thought, "Yeah, I'm bored now"), even though his is obviously a hybrid.

Of course you would only get it with a new dominating main mechanic, old characters getting character assassinated by the Arc-V writers and the budget would be equally shit.

Getting a DM cont doesnt suddenly mean that Konami will suddenly lose their greed to shill new mechanics and the writers wont suddenly gain new writing capabilities. Neither will the studio suddenly get more money.

So if they did Arc-V with 8k LP by giving all characters some action card for doubling damage this turn (so they can make the same plays and tell the same story without difference) would make you "intrigued"?

Misguided Nostalgia

Same with those happy about a new Code Geass season. They think it'll be like watching R1 and R2 all over again.

But the misguided nostalgia is exactly why Konami would do it. Honestly if they announce DM Super I'm done with this franchise. Dragonball Super is so fucking terrible

Why did they have to make this duel so one sided? I thought Yuya would be on par with Yuri but so far it looks like he will lose. The only way i can see Yuya getting out of this is if he creates a new card out of his ass

What on earth ever indicated that could ever be the case?
>>
>>150855342
>including starting at 8000 LP
Now let's not get too crazy!
2 & 3 are in direct conflict, though. Making more realistic decks would make deck-out strategies especially rare.

I noticed while watching: starting in 5D's, most of the plays seemed pretty realistic, i.e. they don't do anything particularly amazing outside of super-specific trap and spell cards. ZEXAL didn't seem to bad, if only because the game didn't move on that much. But in ARC-V, it seems like the plays are LESS powerful than the actual card game. In an era where every single character could pull off multiple of those big, flashy plays per turn, they instead write in weak cards with a few super-specific ones for use in a single duel. Smile World must be hard to write around, since the times it is rarely useful for anything other than direct attacks in the actual game; all the times Yuya uses it, the combo is based around multiple very-specific cards with effects that would be useless in any other situation.

EGAO dragons are adorable, though. I hope Zarc plays Zarc so I can see his face.
>>
>>150857945
I accept your argument in regards to Yusei and Jack and I actually feel the same way about the arc in question. But I still feel like Yugi and Kaiba is something special. Especially when taking DSOD into question.

That said, I don't really have an argument to draw upon for it not being second place. Even if its a rivalry that has persisted beyond time it just doesn't have that spectacular flare to it.

Fuck man, this thread makes me want to rewatch 5DS, 1 to Fortune Cup.

You've shown your hand too soon, so to speak, but I agree with this. I am utterly astounded that there are people who think episodes without a card game are pointless filler that should be cut out of the show.

I really don't. I'm a stickler for things like narrative detail, cohesive story boarding and conclusive stories. I don't like things like DM Super. Sequels that occur after many years are even worse than bad ordinary sequels.

DSOD gets excused because it's a movie and a conclusive little extension to DM in its own right. But it's like, it's SUPER conclusive.

Yuya and Reiji could have bee great; they have emotional duels that develop both of them well and directly drive the plot forward, but now I could not imagine them dueling each other, even just "After all this time, it's time to see who's better!" like Jack and Yusei. I cannot comprehend them having any conflict at all. They're NAKAMA now.

I can't really see how Yusei/Jack is more fleshed out than Atem/Kaiba. All Yusei/Jack had is that first arc but their rivalry fizzled out afterwards. It was hardly touched upon again and never became a real focus. Even both characters just kind of developed on their own. Most of Jack's development came thanks to Carly, not Yusei. Yusei himself became Jesus so he didn't need anyone to teach him a lesson.

Atem/Kaiba rivalry actually drove the narrative and was a major focus for most of the story. Each time they met we learned something new about them and their relationship became more complex. With each meeting their character had changed bringing adding a new layer to their relationship. Atem and Kaiba are also better foils for each other because they both have similar characteristics but took different paths in their life. Atem and Kaiba both had pride and selfishness but one was able to move past that while the other couldn't. Their rivalry was always a fated one spanning several millennia. It's literally a part of history.

Whenever I think of rivalries in YGO Atem/Kaiba is just the definitive one for me. They just have such great chemistry together, not to say Yusei and Jack don't but I just can't see it on the same level because not enough time was spent on their rivalry compared to Atem and Kaiba.
>>
How mad would you be if Zarc continues to use Predaplants and now they suddenly have Pendulums?
>>
>>150859328

>>150859423
Reiji is the "official" rival, but you're right. Sawatari is the other Pendulum user, so it would be nice if he was actually more competitive of Yuya, similar to Vegeta post-Freezer. Something like a mutual friendship, but a one-sided rivalry would suit him. He's the one character I wish was a more competent duelist.
>Reiji is more so Yuya's rival in terms of differing ideology, but that seems to have disappeared.
Exactly my point. Once the conflict is over, their "differing ideology" would have been nonexistent anyway, but they blew it too soon.

>>150859438
I want it to aim for the Shonen Jump audience again. Jump is in a weird place with lots of long-runners ending, and the new series are pretty popular (though it's impossible to tell which if any of them will be as long as the series that ended and which will be 50 chapters). Perfect time for Kaz to draw a new series.

But they're both assocated with the magicians, through I guess you could say that since Yuya is Zarc, in fact, he's the main part of Zarc, that magicians are Yuya's true deck rather than Performapals.

>>150860159
I hope he shills some magicians that help fusion summoning, Rune Eyes, Beast Eyes and Brave Eyes need something that can change it's typing and the deck as a whole needs something that can act as a Trump Witch on scale along with that effect of Trump Girl on the field.

They could just change it to the card game already being an established popular thing instead of something new. They could introduce other Extra Deck summon methods later in the series, kind of like what Arc-V did at the start.

A thought from NAC about who would be the absolute worst of the Akaba's:

>Leo: A man who is perfectly fine with leaving his family without a second thought nor makes any amounts of regard and despite being known a genius is responsible for genocide(making who knows how many people's lives miserable) as well as recreating a psychopath(he let be his secret right-hand man and only now realizes what's happening). Now people side with Leo saying it's the only way after listening to his bias and it says something when even Yushou(a guy who just hears the plot for a span of 10 minutes) explains things more, as well as makes Leo look even more like a moron.
>Himika: Apparently pissed off at Leo for leaving her to the point of adopting a random PTSD-driven kid while experimenting on him and scaring him for who knows how long.
>Ray: A self-righteous moron(takes after her father) foolishly separates worlds, built up almost as more of a Messiash than Yuya and years later instead of manifesting from one of her incarnations to speak, she chooses the time they are about to die to convince a random kid she does not know into betraying his step-brother as well as side with Leo. Yet she does nothing afterward.
>Reiji: Doesn't explain stuff until past 100 episodes, creates a penalty that screws over his potential Lancers(yet conveniently saves his own ass later on(99)), literally watches when people are being chased for hours(Yuzu in 47), sent a Youth team to their deaths knowing they were going to get carded. Even today he doesn't do anything like an actual leader for a team that so poor they make the DCEU Suicide Squad look credible.
>Reira: Kid who tries to guilt trip his older step-brother with a sibling that said step-brother had no idea existed nor had any relationship with whatsoever that would end up killing off innocent people and potentially even more just because "she's lonely while Reiji has so many friends(when in truth he really doesn't)".

This is untrue, though, because he didn't design the ZEXAL characters, and it's the best-looking show and third-best-looking manga.

He actually did design Zexal-mode Yuma, Astral, Shark and Anna IIRC. But the actual show ended up looking a lot different than his initial drafts.

>>150861199
This is true to an extent. The only series where he didn't contribute anything was Arc-V. But the original concept, character design, setiing, and Supreme King in GX was him. The setting, character design, and blueprint for the first 64 episodes in 5Ds was him. The concept, setting and character design in Zexal was him too. He's always added a personal touch to each series minus Arc-V.

Yes, he did think of Neo Domino City and he probably designed some of the main characters, but that's not much of a contribution. I think you're being disrespectful towards Tomioka and Ono, who actually worked on 5D's by attributing all of the show's qualities to Kaz.
>>
>>150861668
He designed all the Signers (don't know if Crow), and the whole Nazca Lines plot/reincarnation of Ancient Dragon Heroes was written long before 5D's started production.
>>
>>150861714
So? The storyline itself wasn't that great. It was the meaningful character interactions and the duels that made Dark Signers good.
>>
>>150861747
But that IS the storyline? In what world are character development and plot progression not part of the story?
Other than Smile World.
>>
>>150861668
>by attributing all of the show's qualities to Kaz.

I never attributed all the show's qualities to Kaz. I merely noted what contributions he made and they are important ones. I'm not taking anything away from Tomioka or Ono or even Yoshida since they played important parts too, but Kaz is definitely one of the reasons the first part of 5Ds was so good. His blueprint provided a foundation for the show, a skeleton to build off of.

But Kaz didn't create these. He certainly did create the Signers plot, but the character development and plot progression were thought up by Tomioka and Yoshida. Their scripts were much more important to 5D's than Kaz's initial idea, which stemmed from a rejected one-shot that didn't feature any 5D's characters and therefore wasn't anything more than a mere blueprint.

No, Kaz isn't an outstanding writer. Yu-Gi-Oh! had a pretty basic storyline, and its characters followed extremely conventional developing formulas. But being a battle manga, all it really needed to be great was memorable characters, and Kaz did a great job at that. I'd argue that DM had the best cast in the entire franchise, and that's its real quality.
>>
>>150862990
If you're gonna asspull the Millenium Ring back, then asspull Bakura back or DON'T USE THE RING

It's just super underwhelming. And I know the Ring wasn't "Destroyed" but it was sealed with the other items in the ceremony duel.
>>
>>150862654
>DSOD is really best viewed as Eye candy and nostalgia.

How can you say that? The movie answers unexplained things from the manga, expands on the Millennium Item lore, expands the manga universe, and it finishes character arcs for multiple characters. Sure the plot itself isn't something too complex but the strength of the movie lies in the characters who drive the plot: Aigami who wants his revenge but also wants to fulfill Shadi's wish, Kaiba who can't handle the loss of Atem and has to deal with his grief, Yugi who's already moved on and now has the opportunity to showcase his growth. There's plenty of substance to the movie. The visuals and music are just icing on the cake.
>>
>>150863031
>and its characters followed extremely conventional developing formulas.
Both Kaiba and Atem start out as sociopaths who are okay with killing others for nothing but pride and egg each other on over and over until the DK duel, but I understand.
>>
>>150863056
>asspull Bakura back

Bakura died along with Zorc. He isn't coming back. Zorc wasn't responsible for the evil in the ring either, he was merely being manipulated by it.
>>

Be grateful I'm even recommending it at all. Just about the only thing of value is Kaiba vs Yugi. In fact, I'm a bit remiss as to why that wasn't the whole movie. Aigami is lame.

>implying your recommendation means anything
>>
>>150863192

Their power comes from the same place. I don't think he was manipulated, though Bakura definitely was.

I don't think you know what filibuster means.
>>
>>150863284

Here it means "You just spewed a spread of nonsense I could write essays against, but I'm not gonna bother because you're a fanboy on par with Star Wars fans."

As an example(you're only getting one)

>Finishes character arcs
The arcs were finished. Kaiba in a sense regresses - he can't let go of Atem.

But Yugi himself? He had the conclusion of his arc, it was the ceremonial duel.

You're conflating the notion of "finishes" with "expands."
>>
>>150862654
>villain is the biggest joke in the franchise

Doubt it. Aside from Yuri and maybe Zarc, every other Arc-V villain is way worse and that's just Arc-V. Arc-V has the worst group of villains in the franchise and that will never change.

Kaiba isn't there leading up Atem leaving for good; he just shows up for a second. Furthermore, the last line of the series is "My story ... has just begun!" as stated by Yugi. I don't disagree that his arc was concluded, but the expansion was definitely well-deserved and logical based on his established characterization.

>>150863484
>But back when this movie was airing
It still is.

Zexal was worse, the villains are rehashed versions of DM villains. At least Arc-V try to do their won thing.

There are people in this thread riht now who still won't acknoledge that Zexal was as good as the origional. It had it's plot all the way through the show unlike GX, it's side cast actually matter and get duels unlike 5D's and the characters are much more developed and likable unlike Arc-V. Why won't people just accept the facts that it's better than these other shows? Is it because Yuma's a retard? He's 12, he's the youngest protagonist to date, is it because Kotori does nothing, Yu-gi-oh is a shonen card battle show, you should be thankful females are even there at all when the fanbase is massively fujoshi

Arc-V fell flat on its face due to an aggresive apathy and selfishness by Director Ono

First with him jacking off Synchro because he did 5Ds, then with Battle Beast

Writers like Zappa Gou bailed because they saw the writing on the wall.

But Arc-V's fault isn't its ambition, its its execution.
>>
>>150863985
>its its execution
True. Even during Synchro it was good, though there was a decline in quality. In Xyz we can see they stoppped caring. And in Fusion, only after BB they seem to be trying again and while it really did regain some of its quality, the damage is already done
>>
>>150863932
>You can't compare them
Of fucking course you can.

A mangaka IS a director - arguably more than a director - a writer, director, and producer all at once. Most of DM was "directed" by Kaz because he's the one who not only WROTE, but DREW the story. Kaz controlled the flow of the story.

Ono controlled the flow of Arc-V's stories too. Having BB be five episodes? His call. Having Nostaglia characters? His decision.

I don't understand the hate of the "filler", outside episodes like Dog-chan. Every single one has some connection to the plot, whether it's collecting No. or tournament stuff. ZEXAL II is considered a big improvement, but it's filler is actually meaningless "Grr, I'll get you next time!" drivel. It says a lot that the Challenge the Game has multiple sweeping shots showing off all the characters in the show, and all of them are memorable with a little development. Compare that to ARC-V's Pendulum Beat, which gets a single slow panning shot that all have roughly the same amount of development or less.

I won't necessarily defend it as great, but combined with actually-good animation/art and a great soundtrack that isn't underutilized like DM, and the show is pretty good. I don't get how anyone can actually think it's the worst, even if they don't like it.

Then again, I could understand die-hard fans hating every series without exception. What can I say?
>>
>>150863609

>>150864051
DM was very dragged out compared to Takahashi's work. His control of flow for the story is very different than the show, and you're not making a good point: controlled pacing in a drawn work means the most important shots take the reader the most time, but controlled pacing in film means the events that take longer take the viewer the most time.

>>
>>150863985

Real shame that Zappa Gou was basically the only writer there that cared about its characters. I think he also did a lot more episodes in Zexal compared to ARC-V.

For me Zexal is the worst, because it has the worst protagonist. Sure, there were some awesome side characters, but when you're watching a shonen and the entire multiverse is sucking MC dick, it gets aggravating.

I can understand that. I generally liked Yuma, though. Unlike Judai/Yusei, it actually felt natural when all the characters said, "You're just the kind of person who everyone is drawn to" because he has an infectious personality. Judai was fun and cool, but he was pretty aloof and distant from everyone, even from the start. He basically let everyone tag along, whereas Yuma actively tried to make friends with everyone, which was nice. I also just find his excitement and stupidity fun to watch.

Arc-Vs story is a pretty mess overall. As bad as late-5DS.
But 5DS was trash in all regards with it being so wannabee grimderp. Easily the most unfun show with the worst MC.
GX is pretty solid but it suffers from bad filler episodes and the ''I need to turn every character evil atleast once'' syndrome.
Zexal probably has the most well developed story of all YGO anime. It only gets really great later tho and starts fairly sluggish.
The original show is still the best simply because the story was the best by far. It suffers only from long filler arcs and the fact that it could have been even better if they adapted it closer to the manga.

Reminder to stop excessively synchro summoning. Your tuners can't handle how much you use them

I'm having that feeling that's exactly what's happening.

>Dragon Ball Super
>Code Geass: Lelouche of the Ressurection
>Fooly Cooly Seasons 2 & 3
>Tons of other Revivals both in and out of Japan and Anime

Embrace the Reboots, so we can finally become one!

I might do it tomorrow.

Pokemon is also shilling Gen 1 very hard recently

And in west you get all those shitty movie reboots like Robocop and Star Wars

After the success of the new movie its very likely that the next YGO series will bring back Yami for more DM filler seasons

I'd be ok with some YGO/Pokémon crossover

Is Xros Wars at all like ARC-V? tri. seems more like the Dragon Ball Z movies than DSOD.

>>150866975
It's kinda funny. BW was trying to re-capture the old Pokémon, using only new Pokémon and the show and games going back to the old style, but it's not trying to bring Gen I back. Then XY come out and we get lots of Gen I stuff brought back. And now we have everything from Pokémon Generations, the XY OP bringing back the first song, a bunch of reprints and cards based on Base Set Pokémon, and a bunch of pixel designs on everything imaginable. They're going all out, but it doesn't feel like it's that much because it's not very focused.

Konami knows nostalgia sells but they also know new mechanics get more kiddos to buy cards

God, most of the decks in Legacy of the Duelist are complete trash.

Especially Judais.

>have a hard time winning with the story decks
>meanwhile 4 Rank spam wins every game even in the later seasons

XYZ and Pendelumfags on suicide watch

Xros Wars is way worse.

>>150867162
I used a stall deck based around Wall of Revealing Light and beat Yubel consistently.

>>150867178
I feel bad for Digimon fans. Applimon looks like it will be the ZEXAL of the series, at least in terms of art/animation, though.

Why are you guys acting like Yuya isn't Zarc.
"This is his, but it's also not his."

It's his.
>>
>>150863231
Because if Kaiba versus Yugi was the whole movie that would have been totally tacky. That would've made it a genuine nostalgia cash grab product.
>>
>>150863609
>Zexal was worse, the villains are rehashed versions of DM villains. At least Arc-V try to do their won thing.

Is this a joke
>>
>>150860201
>>150860011
All the Cards are Yuya's as he is just a smaller piece of Zarc. The Entermate Archetype is his own just like how Yuto, Yugo and Yuri all have their own. But he got the Pendlum and access to the Paladins as he awoke fearing he was going to let his crowd down, a less twisted version of the Determination that fueled Zarc's decision to fuse with his Dragons.

Synchro was something I'd like to call a glass half full that someone is already drinking out of. It was where they had to capitalize on all of the potential they'd built up and also had the opportunity to build even more. But instead it actually turned out to be a point where the decline that hit the series so bad began.

Synchro is something I consider bad just by virtue of being where a lot of the problems with Arc-V first appeared; there might have been rewrites as early as Standard, but as far Synchro is concerned it's the origin point of the disaster.
>>
>>150863852
Honestly, dude. As much as I like ZEXAL I don't blame those people. When you have to celebrate anything by putting something else down, what you're celebrating isn't really that great.

No one wants to listen to a guy who says, "IT'S NOT BAD, IT'S NOT AS BAD AS GX."

Quite frankly; the worst is Arc-V.
