I won’t lie, this was one of the most sincerely terrifying things to see happen in yugioh. A bunch of innocent kids kidnapped and used for experimentation to create the ignis. And revolver and soulburner’s duel permanently lived rent free in my head. “They aren’t gone. They’ve just gone on ahead of you”. Shit had me tearing up as it was just after my Grampa passed away, so it holds a special place in my heart

If what i head was right, an interesting fact about vrains is that the person who wrote the duels for the anime absolutely hated writing duels for soulburner because salamangreat was such a good deck he found it near impossible to put soulburner in loosing situations without making him get super unlucky or play like an idiot. As a side note thats one of my favorite parts of vrains almost every "anime deck" from this series is actually competent and playable including some being meta at one point which is pretty rare for anime decks

Vrains is canonically connected to duel links. That shot of Ai appearing in the middle of nowhere was mirrored in Duel Links once Vrains World was released.

[@KingKasper]

Crazy 🤯

[@shiranshee3706]

VRAINS until episode 46 was a masterpiece + ending duel/ceremonial duel was the probably the best in the series.My problem with VRAINS is that we didn't see Yusaku's personality that much until Ai's arc(I understand he has trauma and everything but still,he felt like an bootleg Yusei at some point) Revolver and Lightning were both decent villains and rivals but Bohman? He was probably one of the most boring characters I've seen in any anime :/ I loved VRAINS but still it felt like it ended sooo quickly and should've been at least 140-150 episodes like the other spin offs

[@KingKasper]

Dang those are all fair points! I definitely agree that Yusaku felt like the least charismatic MC out of all the yugioh protags

[@shiranshee3706]

​@@KingKasperhaha,I still enjoyed watching DM but it had sooo many filler episodes and duels were pretty slow until some certain arcs(which is acceptable because there is not any mechanics in the game) It is solely ranked higher by some people cause of nostalgia n stuff but other than great villains(Marik) and a pretty decent ceremonial duel I don't have much to say about DM tho :/ (I still like the series tho I would still give it a 7.2/10)

[@KingKasper]

@@shiranshee3706 ok I can respect that! Compared to all the others yes it was extremely slow so from that perspective I see your point

[@MarioMastar]

While debatably canon, I do like how Duel LInks is continuing the story exactly where VRAINS left off, with them even going as far as confirming that Duel LInks is PART of VRAINS. AI claims he doesn't have any idea why he's back to life and while Yusaku reluctantly admits he did miss AI genuinely, he is more concerned about this new Duel links world and who built it and for what purpose. Soulburner is treated as the default protagonist though due to the major revelation with Playmaker. ARC-V and SEVENS also have stories that continue thier series in respect to Duel Links, with ARC-V focusing on all the dimensional counterparts regaining their memories while Deklan tries to figure out what's the deal with Duel links and if his father has anything to do with it. While most meetups are handled with forgiveness and apologies, they are worried about how Yuri will react if he's brought back. and Sevens is mostly a retelling of the Sevens story but with Duel links as the basis of defense rather than Rush duel, but the kids seem to be uncertain if the versions of them in Duel links are their real selves or just manifestations of them. The stories mostly end with Yuga explaining that this is Duel LInks, a different world and the memories of the other characters seem to return based on that. Zexal kind of does the same thing, retelling the story with Duel links in mind.

[@KingKasper]

Its cool their investing in continuing all the stories in duel links!

[@anilef2791]

As someone who hasn't seen this anime: I find this plot to be incredibly convoluting and confusion

[@KingKasper]

Ya it's a lot but pretty cool concept

[@darkwolf9637]

Its easier to understand if you watch the show, due to the limited time of the video a lot of stuff is skipped or just glanced over. I highly recommend you go watch the anime its my favorite yugioh series and is also the shortest so it won't take long to watch.

Correction on a few things. Aoi or Skye and Akira are biological siblings not in laws. Ryoken and Yusaku's first speed duel ends in a draw. While their first master duel ends in Ryoken losing. And this happens again to finish the Knights of Hanoi arc. The speed duel ends in a draw but the master duel ends in Ryoken losing. Windy got rid of his partner human.

I feel like im on the minority because zexal and vrains are my fav ygo series. Vrains had some big problems that keep it down for some but for me, i had a lot of fun and was very interesting on it. The lost incident and how its victims reflect on it was also emotional. Vrains also introduced some of the best characters ygo ever had like Revolver or Lightning or Ai. Even though it has some problems, its pretty good imo!

[@KingKasper]

Thats dope glad you enjoyed bro!

[@MarioMastar]

Zexal is arguably my favorite too. I think people give up on Zexal early because of Yuma being kind of obnoxious at first, but he's the only Yugioh protagonist to actually grow and mature through the series instead of starting off already good, making his story more relatable to most new players. Plus the animation quality is absolute Ace and his off the wall strategies are really entertaining to watch while Astral tries his best to make the most of Yuma's rather...questionable deck building. I personally really enjoyed Zexal. and the ending was a great way to close off the series. (and yes I'm aware of how much content was removed when it was dubbed which is a bit of a shame, namely Quatro and Shark's heart to heart when Shark found out he was a Barian and defeated him, but I do feel like some scenes were handled better, like Orbital confessing he sees Kite as like family and Dr Faker making an attempt to save his son instead of just dismissing him as dead and Orbital saying "I'm nothing but a machine, if I fail to protect you then I failed my duty" which sounded so heartless.)

[@trentgawd4292]

If season 3 wasn’t limited by budget, it probably would’ve been among the best seasons in the series

[@yuutaruu4242]

From my understanding it was more of a time constraint. Studio Galop (the ones making the yu-gi-oh anime for the past 20 years) wanted to end their partnership with Komoney for the YGO ip and this is why Vrains is special in a way since it's the last one. Now the YGO rush sequels are done by studio Bridge (which shows in how the design and story telling has changed a bit)

[@vampman87]

You left out a very important detail of the Ignis arc- In their final duel, Bohman, having absorbed five of the six Ignis, created a network that connected all Vrains users minds to himself, allowing him to cheat by using his Skill every turn and create new monster cards, and Ai blew himself up to take the network down. Ai had created a backup copy inside Robappi, Yusaku's cleaning robot, and that copy absorbed the powers of the Ignis and helped Playmaker beat Bohman. The humanoid Ai that caused all the trouble in the Ai arc was that copy, and after it was destroyed I believe the floating eye at the end of the series was the ORIGINAL Ai from the first 2/3rds of the series, since the final Speed Duel of Season 1 showed that Ai could regenerate but it takes a while, and blowing yourself up to take down a network does a LOT more damage than shielding your buddy from space debris. I know the story continues in Duel Links, so I'm probably wrong, but I still say there were two Ais and Ai #1 is the one that came back in the end and Ai #2 was the one that Yusaku had to destroy.

In terms of antagonist and friend characters and even mc vrains was amazing. I would say Revolver tops Kaiba, and Soulburner tops Jonouchi. Though Aoi was disappointing. I knew they weren’t good with female characters but after seeing Serena in arc v I thought they understood how to write female characters who win most of the duels. Though she did have good character development so she is better than most we seen so far.

I hear Sevens picks up later with the stakes and intensity and Go Rush seems to have a mature cast of protagonists, but the series is so new that outside of Japan, we don't really have much access to it. Heck the only way those outside Japan can even play Rush duel is in a video game that's really restrictive and Duel Links which adds skills and has different pacing than the real game.

Ya apparently the story continues in a game I forgot the name of it

[@gyppygirl2021]

My ranking is... 1. Arc-V 2. Zexal 3. 5D's 4. Vrains 5. GX 6. DM And the Rush series are both off in the pits of hell somewhere. I can't fully explain my love for Arc-V. I have my fair share of complaints about it, and I do not consider it the "best" by any means, but it stole my entire heart regardless. The cast and the background lore (not necessarily the plot, that could've used some work) were what I really loved about it. Also, I think it had the best duel pacing and balance. Hot take: action duels aren't that bad. Zexal is pretty much for the cast. I love a large chunk of them. Also, it's relatively consistent throughout, which as a writer is something I can appreciate. I have some strong opinions on the fans and Kite's arc in the second half though. 5D's, in my opinion, has both the best and the worst of YGO. Dark Signers is beyond brilliant, easily the highlight of the entire series... and then it drops off hard, cutting any semblance of lore consistency out in favor of changing the plot completely. You remember what I said about consistency? Yeah. Vrains I actually haven't finished, but so far it's a mixed bag. I like some parts of it - the Zaizen siblings and Soulburner have my entire heart - but I have yet another spicy take: Ai is, in my opinion, one of the worst characters in the series. I find him beyond insufferable and obnoxious, and I only tolerate him because he shares a dub VA with the yu-boys and Zarc. GX is another mixed bag, with more bad than good imo. I don't like that Jaden seems to consume the story, leaving almost nothing for the side characters. Again, I haven't finished, but I have the sneaking suspicion I won't like season 3. DM was actually the first YGO I watched, a long time ago... and it just never stuck with me. Nothing against it, but if my friend hadn't suggested watching 5D's together with me, I would never have gotten into YGO. Sorry!

[@KingKasper]

But another thing that kind of makes me mad about Vrains is that they rush this series so much that didn't make no sense because it was the shortest and they have follow-up stories that are finished in link duels so people who aren't playing link duels wouldn't know the continuation of this story and that kind of sucks honestly.

Not whatever sevens and Gold Rush is doing cuz it's kind of dumb too That's another series where the main character hated the old rules and regulations of Yu-Gi-Oh challenge the network and change you know dual monsters that I'm just like how is this even allowed Why would I be cheering a character on who didn't like the original Yu-Gi-Oh rules change the Yu-Gi-Oh rules just to make themselves feel better.

Hell I was really excited after the dark side of dimensions movies because I thought we was going to finally get a new Yu-Gi-Oh series featuring Yugi as the main character and you know some kind of mysterious nonsense happen or whatever and he's doing to keep his crown as king of games like they could have did something else with you getting his friends because the sad fact of matter is Yugi is the face of the franchise and to ignore that is kind of dumb. Indian each series after 5Ds get progressively worse ain't really helping the situation lol

Im stupid, still couldn't tell you what arc v or even this series was about. Hopefully the series afterwards arent as confusing

[@KingKasper]

You're not stupid there's just a lot going on. Long story short vrains is about a kid got kidnapped in an experiment to create Ai then 10 years later he and the AI team up to take down the bad guys but eventually the AI turns bad and he has to take him down as well. Arc is just about a duelist who went crazy and ended up splitting reality into 4 seperate dimensions. Then the dimensions start fighting and the main character has to beat the other dimensions and the original evil duelist to save all of the realities

@@KingKasper the first episode of Go Rush garbage, but after it became really good. After 6 series there was many repetitive formula, but from Sevens they use creatively the fact it made for a younger audience and Go Rush somehow use it better. You never know a side story arc will have serious consequences or just end it in really funny and unique way. That's why it so high on my list and yes it's a little better than Duel Monsters, but it was hard to make this list because every Yu-Gi-Oh series (besides Capsule Monsters and the first season of Vrains which were garbage) is peak.

Exciting? Vrains was so boring. Being an VR anime that made nothing matter. It's a fake world with fake cards, so why should we care about anything? Also, aside from beating earth, the character Go has no effect on the plot what so ever. He should have been in the place of Soulburner. You could remove him from the story and very little would change. Pandor did absolutely nothing for the plot. It's all just bad writing. We know this because of all the recap episodes this show has, they were just making it up as they went along.
