Hello Everyone! GoldenNova here! TokyoTreat and Sakuraco are helping out with another video, and that means it's time to talk about another theme with a focus on Japanese culture. Today, we're focusing on the kooky Karakuri, based on karakuri puppets that were popular between the 17th and 19th centuries in Japan! These clockwork creations were a delight, and so is this theme! Enjoy!

Kinda expected for you to explain the joke names but in japanese every karakuri is a pun, even in english like Kuick and Shinkuro which are quick and synchro

[@yusheitslv100]

Did someone say Formula Synchron or T.G. Wonder Magician?

[@emanuelstornello8009]

@@yusheitslv100 *the Monster of hopes, go formula synchron!*

[@LeMisterRai]

The Karakuri model numbers are actually their names in japanese numbers e.g. Shirokunishi is 4624, 4 (shi), 6 (roku), 2 (ni), 4 (shi)

[@kaitai7302]

“It’s like lore, but for real places.” I think that’s just history Nova. I just loved playing Karakuri in duel links, it was so fun but, got super nerfed to make way for new decks.

[@Fathom15128]

I am the resident Karakuri player in a community I am in, and it is a very popular deck. People love facing my build, and I love playing it, so I think it is just a wonderful Archetype

[@Ludicollision]

Got a list I could see posted anywhere? It's been a while since I picked up my karakuri so I'd love to see what you've done.

[@Fathom15128]

[@l.rod.8558]

Drop the deck list man

[@theonewhowatches869]

I'm pretty sure that the Karakuri's mdl are gorawase puns, there mdl numbers can be read as their names. I wasn't sure if it applied to all of them, but after watching the video I'm pretty sure it does.

[@yusheitslv100]

I noticed that too. The frog one does this, Ninishi does this (Ninishi = 2-2-4), Kuik = 9-1-9, Nanashik = 7-7-4-9, etc.

[@tjbonnes4936]

I too noticed as the video went on. And here I thought only the Numbers Archetype used Goroawase puns

[@enlongjones2394]

Karakuri Gold Dust can do more than boost one attack. If you have 2 monsters, you can attack with one of them, and then use Gold Dust to switch that one to defense, and boost the ATK of the other. Basically, you can get the ATK value of one of your Karakuris twice.

[@FGOboi]

11:16 I like to think that Karakuri Spider are used to assassinate the Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En, cuz he is Dark attribute And my headcanon is that all the ninja/samurai themed archetype are live in the same periode

[@ichinii808]

I just noticed all the quoted names are just variations on how to read the model numbers e.g. 248 = ni-shi-(hachi) =nishipachi

[@AndyBrixton999]

I'm about to see this video and I already love it. Karakuri is a deck that I really love, and you are guaranteed quality.

[@yarincechavarria250]

Yes! karakuri! My favorite old school archetype

[@sky_shu]

The numbers are how they get their names Example shirokunishi Shi=四-4 Roku=六-6 Ni=二2

[@samedwards3186]

OUR BOY GOT SOME SPONSORS LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@Cheletiba]

Have to attack when able? For a war against humans? Yeah, they killed all humans in feudal Japan...

[@FGOboi]

Karakuri needs a new continuous spell/trap/field that allows them to attacks directly, like the new fusion Ninja card that allows your Ninjas to attacks directly

[@a_man_with_a_plan]

I love this deck

[@travisc.7231]

AYYYE Karakuri are legit my favorite Synchro archetype. Wish theyd get a Link monster

[@michaelnelson1127]

I was going to bring up having a link monster would go against their battle position changing aspect, but if Superheavy Samurai can get a link monster, then I guess it wouldn’t matter too much. It’d definitely have a battle-position-changing effect built in, though I’m hesitant about it being a quick effect with Bureibu’s banishing effect.

[@zeusalternative1270]

The funniest thing related to this is the ojama link monster, since it doesnt have def it has the effect to gain 3k if ojama country is on the field, since it can't swap his stats, link monster interacting with def position is always weird

[@ThatOneWeirdFlex]

​@@michaelnelson1127link 1 that has two position change effects and nothing else.

[@anishshirodkar484]

I Know It’s been 2 years, but I just have to add. Bamboo spears are incredibly dangerous, especially one as thick as the one Nisamu is wielding.

[@augustobonito4816]

Love it, love the arquetype, the video and even the ad, great job

[@_12k70]

Nova, you need to answer me this question, is has been plaguing my mind since forever, is that on your avatar a little smile, or is it a nose and the mouth is hidden on the scarf? THE WORLD NEEDS ANSWERS, NOVA !

[@ravensquote7206]

(23:56) I love everything about this combo. "Call an Ambulance Rescueroid, but not for me". (25:11) That's your own fault lol. Oilman (the union monster) released in February of 2010, the Karakuris didn't come out until July of that year. (19:18) Completely random note, but this synchro monster can be readily brought out by members of the Genex Archetype, thought its secondary effect may be of more benefit to morphtronics.

[@Closer2Zero]

These guys have a special place in my heart because they came out during a time where i was really heavily into the game

[@sugarsmile7852]

You don't know how much I hated mdl 6318 in master duel solo

[@endlessgadgets8046]

Very happy to see Nova finally cover my favorite combo deck. Now I just need him to cover my favorite control deck in Monarchs.

[@gyppygirl2021]

I stand by my opinion that a bagel is a savory donut.

[@Phanto5692]

I like how the quoted word in the monster names sounds like the model numbers (e.g. Karakuri Komachi Mdl 224 "Ninishi" If you take each syllable in "Ninishi" you get Ni (2) Ni (2) Shi (4).)

[@symantares9171]

Me: *seeing Karakuri using 'step Synchro'* "Oh, that's cute. Let me show you how to really do that!"

[@danieldameron2245]

whats this? an earth machine synchro deck that isnt superheavy samurai? why a large influx of BEES ought to put a stop to this!

[@eldlichthegoldenlord4624]

Sentient Artificial life will always betray you, I should know, but I don’t want to deal with these dumb robots, but they are good form their time at least, could make a golden army of them.

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

Does this means Superheavy Samurai has a chance to get reviewed one day?

[@fabianbeteta5795]

It's possible, since golden nova is involving something that is Japan theme to kankuri. For my case I hope to see the six samurai archetype video.

[@polocatfan]

they have to find their spells and traps first

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

@@polocatfan Susanowo and Thief can steal them from their opponent

[@CatchTheseMechanicalHands]

I’m actually surprised to hear these guys are a 5ds archetype. Summoning another one from deck on synchro summon seems a lot more modern. Why weren’t these guys good?

[@jimmoleonchronobird2960]

One thing comes to mind, Blackwings.

[@polocatfan]

they literally topped

[@diang1984]

Started playing yugioh in 2004. Sold my collection and kept only karakuri. Unfortunately old archetypes don't stand a chance against new meta. If they had some special summon power from hand (except solar wind jammer,cyber dragon and the lv5 ),they would be a constant good tier deck.

[@fabianbeteta5795]

Still waiting for the six samurai archetype video.

[@nightsider2705]

We also have a chupa chups drink like that germany and I find it pretty bad. That milky artificial strawberry flavour really doesn't work well as a sparkly drink.

[@Sta_cotto]

Love my Tuesday morning vids, but I'm so disappointed in the lack of attention towards the number puns in all the karakuri "names".

[@elijahpadilla5083]

The numbers are Goroawase puns, or puns based on the pronunciation of Japanese numbers, either in Japanese or other languages; for example, a lot of otaku (in both America and Japan) will type "39" after a performance is over; this is a pun on "san" and "kyuu", pronunciations for 3 and 9 in Japanese, which sounds like "thank you" if you say it fast. It's also why 5 is associated so heavily with racing (it's literally pronounced "Go"- this is also the joke behind Number 55 being a Gogogo monster. "Numbazu Go-juu-go: Gogogo Goriasu" is pretty funny in this context, and it's only the tiniest bit upsetting that it's not a Rank 5 to tie the joke together), and there's so many "32" jokes around ninjas in anime- "san" and "ni" together will give a lot of Naruto fans a lightbulb moment, for instance.

[@jamesclark6864]

I think the model number are using Goroawase. For example: Shirokunishi has the number 4624. The 4s are pronounced "shi", and the 6 and 2 are pronounced "roku" and "ni" respectively.

[@snifit0712]

Thank God for the new heatmap so we can skip the 5 minute ad at the start

[@23gameoverlord]

This is a pretty interesting 🤔 archetype, but I'm not sure if it's a deck for me. But maybe I need to play a game or 2 with them to get a handel on them.
