The creation of fanart about Ai and Roboppy doesn't stop so I guess they're still pretty hooked.

Why the fuck create a ton of character that not only gonna job, but also waste it in a shitty fujo bait anime

That gross pics represents the absolute state of Yoshida writing female characters in yugioh episodes. What a waste of character turned into a vegetable.

>Why the fuck create a ton of character that not only gonna job
Shonen needs minor antagonists.

No they not. Mock up or monster of the weeks are enough.

What the fuck were you expecting?
>Ah, Queen-sama, I've been completely driven into a corner by your peerless tactics! I'm just barely going to win, but nearly losing my first duel totally won't affect my standing as a credible threat!

Do monsters of the week not count as antagonists? Besides only having monsters duel doesn't make any sense.

SHAAKUUUUUUUU

>What the fuck were you expecting?
That she could be a side antagonist just like Mr. Heartland and Jean-Michel. If you are gonna show us (and hype for some people) a character that do a lot of shit like hinting some stuff with the chess pieces (that right now may be as well scrapped like a lot of shit Yoshida does), the EARTH shit, etc, and literally job on her first duel (and with a shitty move like making them face against another character who has his first duel) with bad budget and not even letting us see her moves, then why the fuck hype us to begin with? Yoshida knows that, and yet he rather still go with his shit writing about "Hey, let's take a female character that was being hype and kill her off, also let's add some legacy monsters with her too ;) " I would rather have literal who doing all that shit before that. This is literally the second time, first time was Revolver, lost his first fucking duel, any form of respect got destroyed, now this? No fuck you, FUCK YOU

Every time a girl loses people flip shit. Does anybody really care about blue slut/altergay/queen?

Calling it now, Revolver's new Ai Pandora will become the final villain and Yusaku and Ai will have to fight together to defeat it. Also, Ai will die in the final battle

And it will look nothing like that.

I care more of the fact that if they are giving us jobber as character in the main cast and even antagonist side. Just stop doing that, it's horrendous and absolutely disgusting, and more if you tease them a lot with "LOOK HOW MUCH THEY KNOW OH NO LOOK HOW EVIL THEY LOOK"

If it was King instead of Queen would you be as upset? Ignoring the fact that King is above Queen in terms of chess hierarchy.

>Mr. Heartland and Jean-Michel
She did nothing and then died a retarded death. They'd be proud.

Here's your monster antagonist.

>queen loses
waah jobber
>ai loses
waah jobber

Why even watch Yugioh, someone will always have to lose but that doesn't make them a jobber

I feel Queen was not meant to be a relevant character. I took a look at her voice actress profile and it says this was Megumi Koyama first role voicing a character. She is an animator/designer so do you think they would have used an animator to voice Queen instead of a regular voice actress if she was supposed to be a relevant character this season?
I would have liked to see more of her and have her around a bit more though

>If it was King instead of Queen would you be as upset?
Yes, OF-FUCKING-COURSE! At this point I may be a masochist because I lost all hope for this fucking season but I don't fucking care because when you hire a shitty writer like Yoshida you got shit like MY DUELING ALWAYS WIN Maker, females character may be as well scrapped, the first "antagonist" being a joke (and in consecuence, disrespect and our personal shitposter that have to reminds us all the time how much he hates his gusts), the "deuterognosti" being just shitty jobbers, characters like Go who should just dissapear, BUY SALAMANGREAT, Bohman being boring, hypying up hanoi, queen, lost incident and then oopsie not anymore now enjoy AI. It could be literally the new weevil and I will still be upset.
Majoume and asuka were both jobbers and yet they got a better treatment that everything vrains is doing, stop with your shitty arguments. Also Mai was more respected despite being a fucking jobber, and even Yuma, the main character of zexal, has some jobber shit. Just fuck off.

You should fuck off

Not feeling it chief

Nobody complained when Yusei never lost either and 5ds is shit. Yusei beat Aki in a duel three times and people worship her as a character.
I'll give you that Bohman is boring as shit though, hydradrives are just bad. However, Bohman loses to Yusaku like five fucking times and people blame Bohman and not Yoshida.

It's a card game, somebody has to lose. If we included a tertiary cast just so the deuteragonists, it would be even worse. Ai has had one duel and the @ignisters are already so much better than the Hydradrives

Kusanagi already did it

Aki got some pre development before that duel, two duels. She also managed to won against Misty. Not to mention that whenever she appeared there was some sense of tension. The only tension I feel with Aoi is what else is gonna be wasted this episode.

There's tension in Aoi's duels.

Hydradrives have trash, forgettable designs. The only memorable one was Atlas and he was used once.

Just like placido. Things never change.

Hydradrives is a complete and total mess of an archetype. You really think its practical for a link spam deck to run 7 cards for one monster that is RNG based? None of their other link monsters are memorable other than the link 1s and thats only because we had to see them so much

They really could have just had her invade her mind to steal what he needed and leave her there and nothing would changed, the duel was pointless Queen being hospitalized was pointless, treating her like she was even capable of dueling was just stupid.

If blood shepherd won't do that, Ai certainly won't.

And Blood Shepard could have just shot Playmaker. Gotta settle things with card games.

>I feel Queen was not meant to be a relevant character

She's literally at the top of the totem pole of Sol. You know, the secondary antagonist of the series.

Difference between him and Ai is ai does not give a flying fuck about humanity just a few "good" ones
ugh, don't remind me, I remember early on loving that vrains didn't settle everything with card games and the characters only dueled when there was no choice.

How could a guy with a card that looks like his head and archetype based on his family be a villain? All he wants is his friends/family back so they could live happily on an island that is an amusement park. It's hard not to root for him.

Attached: ignisterailand.jpg (868x840, 112K)

Who do you think are those people who he really cares about? I say he only cares about Yusaku, Takeru and Aoi because of their relationship with the other Ignis then he doesn't care about any other human.

>the secondary antagonist
SOL is a joke. They only exist because somebody has to run LINK VRAINS and are required by the plot to be absolutely awful at that.

>Ai is ai does not give a flying fuck about humanity just a few "good" ones
I don't know if that's true. He wouldn't bother helping Yusaku save so many people.

>SOL is a joke

YUGIOH CYCLE.

DO NOT
PULL A SONIC CYCLE
ON THIS SHIT

The Yugioh Cycle is nothing like the Sonic Cycle user.

Doesn't have to be the same as them, just know that the word cycle isn't good for this

The Yugioh Cycle is the belief that after DM, every even numbered series (GX, Zexal) starts shitty and gets good, and that every odd numbered series (5Ds, Arc-V) starts good and gets shitty.
We're just waiting for Vrains to get good now.

What if it break the cycle then?

What about the belief that all of them are kind of mediocre?

Then Yugioh is dead.

All seasons are good in their own way!

Attached: Alternative Fuck Yeah Northwemko.png (1116x1024, 1.58M)

Life doesn't depend on quality only sales and the ability to produce.

I haven't seen Arc V or Zexal, so I can't vouch for it. But this whole ygo cycle seems incredibly black/white.

Why is DM excused? If you guys are counting 5Ds filler, then DM shouldn't be excused.

Gx beginning isnt even shit. The first season and 2nd season are mediocre imo. I wouldn't call it bad by any stretch.

>tfw enjoyed all yugioh series and arcs
Feels good having low standards. The only parts that were kind of a pain to watch were the first 10-20 Zexal episodes

no, the shareholders are at the top

Im addicted to watching Aoi undressing.

You guys are being pedantic. She still is a top ranking member. And if chess metaphors are anything to go by of, it more or less implies she would be a threat.

>chess
>mattering
They can wait in the scrapped ideas in-airing with Lost Incident

They didn't ever specifically illustrate they were skilled duelists. Only high ranking business people. I don't think the kaiba executives were good duelists either.

Characters like Dartz and Rex Goodwin didn't dueled until they got challenged by the main protagonist, but we all expected them to be Duelist, becuz ygo big bad.

This is the best I could do, hope you like it user.
And yes, it's addictive, I tip my hat to the person who created this awesome video, if you are around, thanks buddy!

They also had magic powers. When currently only go and the ignis seem to have outright duelist improvement magic.

Doesn't mean jack shit. Queen literally pulled out a skill ability during a Master duel.

That doesn't add to her duelist credibility.

I went trough the archives and found these. Lucky.

Hope the same user draw more Aoi stuff she's so sexy

It really turns me on how for a fraction of a second it feels like she is having second toughts about taking off her t shirt right before doing it.

By that logic, magic powers doesn't add to Rex or Dartz credibility.

Basic metaphors and foreshadowing 101.

I legit laughed out loud at this, something I never thought Yugioh would be able to do.

>By that logic, magic powers doesn't add to Rex or Dartz credibility.
Not necessarily. She's not an ignis. She can just kind of can do whatever she wants in vrains. She's not super powered.

I feel that's material for Roboppy lewds, hopefully genderbend lewds lol

That's all I'm gonna be able to see now.

Kind of proved my point there. Regardless, the whole chess metaphor is so in your face, it hurts. To say that she wasn't going to be relevant is kind of ridiculous.

My point still stands. It's more or less expected that Top figure heads will be duelist. Regardless if they haven't dueled once.

so who got the worst treatment? queen (head of sol) or revolver (leader of hanoi)

>Kind of proved my point there.
No she's not magic. And she's not a top figurehead.

Ryoken. At least Queen does still have higher ups. Ryoken is the very top of the Hanoi knights.

Queen, because Revolver still has actual cards to shill, even if he jobs. Queen's deck like most of the rest of Vrains is a never ever.

>because Revolver still has actual cards to shill, even if he jobs
that just makes him worse

I don't know why some anons make fun of Revolver for not being able to achieve anything but he has has a Structure Deck and his monsters have been the covers of boosters, isn't that a good thing? I mean, not all the characters are popular enough to have an SD, I wish Aoi, Emma or Blood Shepherd had an SD so I could say my favorite character is kind of popular, their aces are not as good as Barreload or Borrelsword in the OCG/TCG. I don't see why making fun of him makes any sense.

BUY BLACKWINGS
BUY RAID RAPTORS
BUY SALAMGREATS

>but he has has a Structure Deck and his monsters have been the covers of boosters
and yet he still can't achieve/win anything? it's kinda pathetic isn't it? all this shilling and forcing him to be a main character just to job?

Wow! What's this?

Attached: Northwemko Smug-Fang Gar!.png (2000x1280, 555K)

Why does magic have to be the only contrived way to be good at dueling? She already screw the rules against AI. Once again, your being pedantic. She's a top figurehead in Sol. Just because she's not at the absolute top echelon, doesn't change my point.

There's no point in arguing if you don't get basic metaphors and foreshadowing.

>salamgreats
who plays those?

They only showed in a 3 or 4 one minute scenes. She wasn't hyped up like rex godwin or his brother's goons. She can screw the rules but that doesn't always make you a good duelist or means you have super powers. I think of keith or pandora.

A lot of people play them, I don't think Konami has had such a successful product before as is the Salamangreats SD. It's inexpensive, easy to get and Salamngreats are good, they're still meta if I'm not mistaken. Besides, those who didn't have an Ash went crazy and bought 3 SDs, no wonder why the anime needed to shovel Soulbuner down our throats all the time.

The only hype Goodwin has that he was a Signer. Like I said, why do you act as if magic is the only contrived way to be good at dueling?

Hindsight is 20/20 with yall ppl. I guarantee you a majority would think Queen was possibly going to be the final boss before 103.

I was just calling out a spelling error. Also they pushed him because of yuki kaji.

SD or Yuki Kaji they shoved SB down our throats, and it wasn't exactly good writing.
And my bad, I didn't know you were talking about spelling, sorry.

>Nobody complained when Yusei never lost either
What planet are you from? People were complaining about Jesus Fudo during 5D's.

>The only hype Goodwin has that he was a Signer.
Robotic arm. His crimson dragon experiments that exploded bommer's village. His gigantic altars, all that stuff. All we got from queen was her obsession with profit and looking beautiful.
>Hindsight is 20/20 with yall ppl. I guarantee you a majority would think Queen was possibly going to be the final boss before 103.
I don't know about that. It's kind of hard to tell exactly what she was going to do.

The crimson dragon and momentum have dueling an integral part of their being.
>Who else would you expect to be the main antagonist of S3?
King, maybe. But not queen. Ai and Roboppi fill the quota for another pair of male villains.

Aqua is the only one for Ai I guess.

Yeah, first episode of the season recaps what happened, so you can skip all that shit.

If you don't kiss and say "no homo" then it's not gay

We can go back and forth, but at the end of day, you gotta understand basic metaphors and some characters are strong duelist just because the plot said so.

It seems the dub guys didn't give a damn about the dubbing. Was that supposed to be funny or cool?

If it was meant to be funny, it killed it. I still crack up over Amber Mammoth.

I actually did kind of like this. One of the few things I feel the dub actually does well is add flavor to character voices.

GX's first half wasn't as good as the second half but it was still very entertaining, DM only had two good arcs in a sea of awful filler, and 5ds was overrated as fuck even in its best part. For Zexal and Arc V, it does hold true since each half was either shitty or good for both series.

This is my fucking problem with Yoshida. He just want to get rid of characters when the best shit he could do was never created them so we couldn't endure this fucking shit. Stop hiring this fucking travesty of a writer

The alternate is Emma and Blood Shepard forcing Roboppy to flee or lose, follow by a very angry Ai.

>thinking that Yoshida would do this
Don't. Best and realistic case scenario is a draw and even then is still delusional.

Man I have always liked Blood Shepherd and wanted his drones to be printed and all they have done with him losing to SB, PM, Revolver, and Lightning and probably Roboppy, I don't know if it is Yoshida's writing but heck when will he have his time to shine? He's to be a professional mercenary but the writing just makes him bite the dust

>done with him losing to SB
He didn't lose to soulburner.

How can they not job if they have no one to duel against? You better hope the Ignis are revived to salvage their nonexistent characters.

I rather they do not job and do something that makes them a little less useless

He didn't lose to Soulburner. In fact, that face down card would have save Blood Shepard and Soulburner might be the one that would have lost that battle. I want to say that its a 5Ds reference with Yusei almost losing to Kiryu but he didn't because something happen that interrupt the duel.

You guys gotta get over this jobber thing.
Some people win more and some people lose more.
A character's worth to a story isn't defined by how much they win or lose but by how much if an impact they make by doing so and how their presence shapes the plot

what if they lose and make no impact and their presence doesn't do shit aka shitvulva

Yes and No. Yes in any other story that is not yugioh where your reputation, your life, your relatives, your ignis, or the future of the world depends on whether you win or lose a card game. How much impact can a character make if they lose most of the time or win most of the time? How much impact can a character make by being fodder for other characters?

But the writers didn't let him win, they spend 2 episodes in drama to get a draw.
Plot or not, I haven't seen Blood Shepherd be the professional mercenary he claims to be, either the writers don't let him be that or they they don't know how to make him be that in the same way they couldn't make Bohman be the threat they wanted us to believe he was.

That's only for the nip market. Luckily over here we usually don't get those kind of wacky shits.

What will Aoi's final avatar be called?

Attached: 1558540215091.png (1280x720, 730K)

He is a threat, but that's not really impressive, plus his personality is almost non existent. Not to mention boring and his monsters are like BS in terms of boring design. Only difference is that BS has some interesting backstory that could have been developed but didnt

GX and even Zexal mastered the art of jobbing though. The main characters like Edo, Hell Kaiser, lll, and IV all got some filler duels to actually look competent but in Vrains, the time they should be carefully using is always wasted because the duels take too long or they waste them on retards like Bowman or Blood Shepherd.

Go getting his revenge on Soulburner and Revolver or actually making an attempt to make Haru a credible threat wouldn't been so much better to see.

>He is supposed to be a threat
>Lost 4 times to PM and PM didn't even flinch
He was so much of a threat that PM didn't say "Sore wa dou kana" in their last duel

>they couldn't make Bohman be the threat they wanted us to believe he was.
>says he's a threat now
So what is it then?

Fuck you too Fubuki hater.

PM disagrees with you

Attached: fearsome opponent.png (1280x720, 581K)

First of all, another user, that's why the reply may not make sense.
Second of all.Bohman IS a threat. I mean an enemy is supposed to be a threat. The thing is that he isn't an interesting threat. Plus the fact of how his design, playstyle, monster design, motives, and other factors are pretty weak. Lightning as the final enemy would have been better than letting Bohman be the final one

pretty sure PM also called revolver fearsome once as well, and look where we are now where he is completely and utterly useless jobber

And we were not discussing if Bohman was interesting or not

Fair enough. By yugioh standard he is a threat

But he only ever made things worse.

Imagine a world where Konami didn't bother with Yugioh.

Not sure where you've been hanging out to pull that list out of your ass. It certainly isn't around here unless your sample base for "general opinion" was some small period of time with a vocal minority.

Yea Forums isn't that big compared to the rest of the world

He dueled 4 times and two of them had the MC and one was with the nearly unbeatable rival so gets the okay from me. Now Blood Shepherd on the other hand got cucked out of a good win and only beat his slutty ass sister as punishment in 6 fucking duels.

A cool ass dude with an amazing like him doesn't deserve to be such a punished jobber.

personally I don't get the obsession about JOBBING HURR compared to whether or not the actual character, while on-screen, is providing entertainment value

doesn't make the "general opinion" any more valued around here by virtue of numbers either.

Run linux

Well the, genius, enlight me. What are the worst and best seasons, then?

DESU, I'm so excited to see him dueling freely without risking his brother's life nor his. However, we still don't know what will happen to those who lose (will they end up in comma or just logged out) so may be I'm to optimistic.

It was there during Arc-V threads but not to this extreme extent, I don't get it either.

Attached: 1427575718837.png (256x257, 98K)

So, for you which characters from the Vrain cast have provided entertainment value while on-screen and why?

Revolver, Windy, Blood Shepherd, and Specter to a mild extent but not consistently
Lightning
Roboppy and Ai
some of Yusaku's monster summons and attacks
Soulburner only on that episode that Noh animated, but that was mostly because of the latter

definitely never Bohman except for that time he maxed out his LUK stat for judgment dice

>Great: 5Ds/DM
>Good: Zexal/GX
>Meh: Vrains (pending further judgement based on S3)
>Bad: Arc-V

Sawatari in all his jobber duels got more development, more respect and his jobbing was even more related to the plot. Not to mention that his duels were always hype and fun.
Meanwhile, BS can't catch a break with the AIs and used to be the fodder of a shota robot, Aoi is only there because muh woman duelist despite that she tend to have the most humillliating defeats and is always there for only that, Queen who may as well never existed (and more if they don't print those new Alurre Queen), Go who is literally uncharismatic and was only useful in the EARTH duel because it hinted at AI corruption, and the list go on.

They can't even beat decode talker.

Why even sit here in this Vrains thread if there's not even a tiny sliver of entertainment to be had

something something egao

He also did pretty well against Big Z

As far as I see, VRAINS is considered bad. Not only here.

Mostly just Playmaker. It's been fun to just watch him go to town on people with his deck of various summoning types, plus his seiyuu really sold the callous "MY DUELING NEVER LOSES" angle.

In fact a lot of whatever enjoyment I've gotten out of Vrains is how good the vocal delivery is from characters, both the bad and good ones. Watching PM and Revolver duel is entertaining even on the sole reason of great shouts/chants/気合/etc.

>something something egao
That means his duels wasn't plot related if you can't directly tell me how his duels was related to the plot at all. Unless you're telling me its thematically related, then it is, but it didn't amount to much if its Yuya doing the actual egaoing and not him.
>He also did pretty well against Big Z
He didn't at all.

I feel like I'm finally realizing that a huge chunk of the older posters have already left when Vrains failed to be more than mediocre in its first 50 episodes, and it's mostly underaged kids and ESLs still in here. Or at least it feels like it whenever I visit these threads

yuya vs sawatari rematch is the 2nd most popular duel in arc-v only second to shun vs sora. Even if he lost all his 1 vs 1 duels and they were not related to plot, he was a character we saw growth from an asshole rich kid to a "teamplayer" lancer that loves dueltainment.

I don't even trust Yea Forums to tell me what the best series is, the general public is probably even worse.

yugioh anime lost most of its soul during the hotels in synchro arc and it hasn't come back since

The character growth is fine and all even though he was still an ass to a degree all throughout, but his duels ultimately isn't plot related after standard.

Here we go again

Interesting answers, thank you for replying
In my case:
>Aoi
I just love her design, especially Blue girl, tomboys are my weakness
>Revolver
I like his guns/bullets theme, and Varrels (Borrels) are my favorite monsters. He has a magnificent voice, his "Anti Enemi Varetto" is similar to Kaiba's 'Horobi basuto estorimu" in terms of energy.
>Blood Shepherd
Even though he has lost most of the time, to me he looks pretty badass. I like how he can be both cold and caring at the same time.
>Ai and Roboppy
Ai is voiced by Sakura there is no reason not to like him, actually I like almost all of the characters he voices and Roboppy is just so cute. Besides, both have good chemistry.

or you know, just have your own bloody opinion and trust that

How many posters do you think there really are?

If you're wondering why it's mediocre it's because it's card game based.

Synchro arc is kino, tho.
youtube.com/watch?v=NJDBsibo_2w

yeah after standard he isnt plot relevant. He kinda introduces action cards to synchro and xyz dimension duelists AND inmediately jobs to a yuya counterpart except yuri (I am still mad he did not), talks big and gets his ass handed to him. And gets shipped with severa. I enjoyed his character alright.

I actually like all the characters, bar Bohman, in a way.

idk why, but I /really/ hated the color design and palettes of synchro arc. To me it was just so ugly

Revolver was entertaining in S1 when he was a chuuni villain instead of infodump machine that he is right now.
Even his avatar got downgraded from somewhat unique looking into a generic bishonen.

I didn't care at all about him after that initial intrigue of being a new character wore off

Queen will just switch to another queen deck. If she ever duels again.

You are the problem in these threads

Yea Forums is usually split on whether they think gx or 5ds is the best.

Playmaker, Soulburner, Go, Blue Maiden, OGvolver, Ai, Roboppy, Flame, Lightning, and Windy. If you don't think this is a good enough roster then you must hate fun.

GX has Judai pull one too many of those >"CARD ONLY WORKS IN THIS VERY SPECIFIC NICHE CASE BUT IT'S EXACTLY WHAT I NEED RIGHT NOW"

Revolver vs Soulburner makes that not true.

revulva will tag duel with his ass licker spectre and both will get btfo by chadburner

>spectre
He has an AI now.

the fact that the anime hasn't had enough confidence to do tag duels in literal years doesn't make me think it would be good

Only if they do it Tag Force/Tyler Sisters style rather than 2vs1/Battle Royals

chadburner will 1v3 and win

>MAL

>confidence
It just didn't have enough close duelists to justify working around links.

So who's going to Tag Duel with Roboppi?

Queen and King.

Except that past series used 3+ player duels to make them closer as characters.
Considering how shitty any 3+ player duel was in arc-v, I think they purposely tried to avoid them

2 vs 1 I guess. Or she could pull out a Mizuchi and clone herself to make it a 2 vs 2.

>darkness
>good
>millenium world
>meh

Sometimes but not always. Jonouchi and Yugi, Judai and Sho, Judai and Johan, Judai and Asuka, Yusei and Jack and Crow, Jack and Rua and Ruka, Crow and Aki were all close before hand.

that still doesn't at all justify the reasoning of "they're not close so that's the main reason for no tag duels"

Sure it does. A lot of them needed to learn to work with others. Can't forget all the wrist AI commentary either.

They may be testing the water with GG and BS tag duel, may the audience reception be good they may include more.

Akira and Blue maiden is already basically confirmed.

Yeah, I forgot that one. They may use more though. PM & SB, PM & BM, PM & Kusanagi, Revolver & Specter

>they don't know how to work with each other so instead of having them forced into it by the situation and have the learn on the job, the characters themselves are the #1 reason why they haven't done tag duels for YEARS

vrains is already written until the end from this point
it's different from you usual manga or tv show where they change stuff out of the blue

Yeah, they had to be convinced through AI.

You’re right. MW was bad.

none of the character stuff matters in that context, ultimately they do what the writers want them to

I think it does. VRAINS seems to avoid having sudden scenarios.

lol

>lol
Think what you want but there doesn't seem to be many.

I'm lol'ing at this narrative that vrains is so carefully crafted to avoid anything that might jolt the sleepy and bored viewer awake, like the very slight amount of drama that would've been caused in earlier seasons if Yusaku actually tag dueled with someone.

Kinda like how some ballad songs seem to purposely all blend into this generic mush of music by their avoidance of any slightly risky sound that might excite the heartrate of the listener too much

Forced tag duels doesn't scream good writing to me. It wants its drama to not be crap. Besides Yusaku always worked with Ai.

that SOL break-in from really early in the show was like the prime opportunity for a tag team duel but they purposely avoided the situation

>doesn't scream good writing
Neither does Vrains as a whole, so they might as well provide something entertaining on screen

That's Robo Queen, silly user.

Tag duels have been so absent because then all the fodder like Aoi would be wiped out too quickly. 1v1s allow them to stretch things out much longer

Attached: 1541224104222.jpg (777x777, 233K)

AI and Max Brave. I find them somewhat humorous.

>so they might as well provide something entertaining on screen
None of these characters seem like they wanted to work together. Why force it for cheap shock? That won't make it better. Especially given how supposedly hard it is to choreograph these things. Just seems risky without an assured payoff.

It'll be weird if this design has nothing to do with her at all, the 'hair' is almost identical.

That was my original point dingle-dangle. They're not confident they can do them because of how badly tag duels/battle royale duels were handled in arc-v, so they've avoided them until this upcoming bs/gg duel

Also, tag duels don't have to happen because the characters themselves in-story feel great about it, but several of them have those reluctant characters coming away from the duel a little bit closer despite initial feelings. If I didn't know any better I'd almost say they're a tool for actually contributing a little to character relationships.
Or at least they were, in the distant past.

It's not that the characters don't want to, it's the way they have been written. If characters feel like they don't want to do something is because the writers don't want to. It seems as if the writers don't want the characters to interact, to bond which is something some anons have pointing out. This season they may have changed their mind though.

how exactly are tag duels by themselves so dramatic that you'd call them cheap shock? you're acting like tag duels are jump scares or a character suddenly being violently murdered

My point was it doesn't fit the narrative, that confidence was not the main reason. Furthermore the coming together was paced slow intentionally. Throwing in a tag duel because "other villain bad" is just lazy.
>Also, tag duels don't have to happen because the characters themselves in-story feel great about it, but several of them have those reluctant characters coming away from the duel a little bit closer despite initial feelings.

No it's exactly what it is. They've only been dueling together with their AIs.

How so? Kaito and Yuma weren't best friends right away after having to duel III and IV, because there were bigger things to worry about at the time

Because Kaito tried to steal his soul and kill Astral. They shouldn't be trusting enough to duel with each other just a couple episodes later. It's an unnatural team play.

Do you mean an Ignis? Because if you mean Ignis, the only one who has had one since the beginning is PM, then SB is introduced until S2, and BM got Aqua around episode 80. So the rest of the time they could have used 1 or 2 tag duels to get things a bit interesting and different.

It's Pandor. The background is just like the background of Revolver's lair in VRAINS.

>The two enemies or rivals that come together to fight a villain or villains usually are.
it's a cliche, but when has been used illogically in yugioh? if there's a catastrophe on the horizon, it actually makes more sense if the characters who don't want it to happen actively try to get as much advantage as they can, by attempting to duel as a team against the main perp

wasn't it like 20 episodes later? and yuma didn't do it just for kaito, as far as he knew the situation, haruto was an innocent boy being kept prisoner

>it's a cliche, but when has been used illogically in yugioh?
So many characters are so ego driven and abrasive you think they would take the 1 vs 2 disadvantage scenario rather than work with another duelist.
>and yuma didn't do it just for kaito, as far as he knew the situation, haruto was an innocent boy being kept prisoner
Even then it doesn't make a ton of sense from Kaito's perspective.

egos get pushed aside when the world and self existence is in danger, though. and how does yusaku have such a big ego he'd refuse any kind of help? he doesn't care about scruples like that, only that early on he didn't want uninvolved people to get hurt. but that doesn't apply to characters who are already balls-deep in the situation

>Kaito's perspective
iirc Kaito didn't have much say in whether or not Yuma dueled, since he jumped in on his own decision

post deck, I need to fuel my MC deck autism

>and how does yusaku have such a big ego he'd refuse any kind of help
because he knows everyone else is incompetent and would just drag him down? he's dueled almost all his "comrades" some even multiple times so he knows what they are capable of (they aren't capable), chadmaker is all that's needed

>Synchro that high
>Xyz that low

that's from a meta perspective. yusaku himself isn't going to 100% know the future

>egos get pushed aside when the world and self existence is in danger
There's a difference between working as a team to accomplish different objectives and actually working together on the same side in a duel. The latter is much more involved with team play and should be harder to justify.
>iirc Kaito didn't have much say in whether or not Yuma dueled
The fact he didn't do anything to stop him makes it even worse.

but you still refuse to give examples of where yugioh has used tag duels illogically.
>The fact he didn't do anything to stop him makes it even worse.
how...? thinking back, iirc kaito didn't even want his help and told him to stay out when yuma arrived to get Haruto, but iii and iv ended up surprise trapping them both into the duel with their duel disks to block them off from reaching the room with tron and haruto.

If Kaiba and Yugi can duel together against rare hunters, then any character can work together no matter how arrogant they may be

Fuck vrains
Fuck link monsters
Fuck anime CaC's

and especially...

I wish they let Ghost Girl have a real win.
I feel she and zaizen have done more on the background than on duels.

I think it's pretty clear that user hasn't watched any of Zexal but keeps up a pretense of being knowledgeable for this charade of "Vrains didn't have tag duels because the characters blah blah blah" when really it's probably because the headache was a little too much for Hikki (and perhaps the production circumstances as well) until now. Maybe it's still going to be a huge headache for hikokubo and the first tag duel of Vrains will be a stinking mess, who knows

That's nonsense too from a villain too, if you trap two people into a duel, you're putting yourself at advanced risk if even one of them is strong enough to push your team back alone.
If you think bad set up is okay then fine.
That doesn't mean it's written well or makes the most sense.
No it's just been a long time. Two rivals or enemies joining up in a duel rarely makes any sense from one side or another.

you have to be pretty gay to make these posts.

>That's nonsense too from a villain too
they assumed yuma was a throwaway nobody not worth worrying over, they only trapped him to prevent him from reaching Haruto. even if you were hypothetically right, that also means it's not a miss on kaito's part like you keep claiming
>bad set up
HOW exactly then?

Attached: 1542271930109.jpg (1710x2116, 279K)

This show barely holds onto sense when stringing its story together, though. 1 tag duel would've been the least of its problems.
Why was the Hanoi tower, a construction made of computer code by computer hackers, tied directly to whether or not Revolver lost a card game duel? Why'd he agree to duel at all in the first place then instead of just letting the countdown continue to completion?

>they assumed yuma was a throwaway nobody not worth worrying over, they only trapped him to prevent him from reaching Haruto. even if you were hypothetically right
That's just adding to the threat opposing you. It's dumb on the most basic level of logic.
>HOW exactly then?
Don't have enemies and rivals duel together on the same side seems like the most sound way to do things.

Not him but at the very start of the anime, he was very interested in Playmaker. He lied to this virtual dad that he never knew about Playmaker's identity.

Anyone opened a vr/a/ins sings calling? If not I'll get it started

Aoi, Go, and Yusaku by the point of the Hanoi tower weren't enemies though. And you still don't explain why the cliche of 'let's truce for now to beat this other bigger bad' is illogical. The major players of Three Kingdoms teamed up when it was convenient for their situation and fought each other or backstabbed at other times, this kind of thing goes way back

Because he's honorable and dueling is destiny to him. It's why he didn't go after him in real life. Egomaniac rivals strike again.

But breast envy and flatties being self-concious is great. I should comission art of Kotori and Aoi playing in a kiddie pool while glaring at Asukas and Akis mountains in the distance.

>That's just adding to the threat opposing you
i just said their main objective at the time was to prevent both of them from reaching tron and haruto, though

>other characters are dumb for smaller things but revolver is high iq for this
Stop pulling my leg

>Aoi, Go, and Yusaku by the point of the Hanoi tower weren't enemies though.
That doesn't mean they trust each other a lot to work together in the same duel.
>And you still don't explain why the cliche of 'let's truce for now to beat this other bigger bad' is illogical.
Their personalities don't fit this. And don't even bother comparing it to real wars or whatever because that's stupid too.

Having duel magic shouldn't constrain you to such a narrow scenario in the first place. There's always going to be a problem with a rival team up.

His guilt doesn't justify acting conveniently dumb for the sake of the plot when he firmly believed in how dangerous the ignis were to the entire human race. He even confirmed it further by saying Ai needs to be finito after everything that happened with Lightning and Bohman

Aoi is there because it would threaten her livelihood as an attentionwhore and being "herself" instead of her autistic, boring, real life counterpart.

Go is there because he IS an attentionwhore.

Yusaku is there because revenge boner.

He's not high IQ, he's just a cocky and dumb.

>That doesn't mean they trust each other a lot to work together in the same duel.
Why? Go and Aoi at the time trusted enough to put themselves on the line in the first place, and Go even sacrificed himself
>Their personalities don't fit this.
how?
and im not comparing vrains directly to real wars (even though it's a highly embellished, mythic-retelling of a war but ok), im just saying it's been in stories since forever with all kinds of colorful characters of every shade

Aoi is there because she's believes in heroism or something after baira.

>why? Go and Aoi at the time trusted enough to put themselves on the line in the first place
They still worked alone and went their own ways because that made more sense to do.
>how?
Rivals are not pleasant people.
>m just saying it's been in stories since forever with all kinds of colorful characters of every shade
Such diplomatic moves take time and shouldn't be on the spot.

>Rivals are not pleasant people.
not everyone in the vrains cast is a rival to yusaku

It's "this guy is gonna do something neither of us want, let's go at him at the same time so he doesn't". It's something that happens impromptu in online games, it doesn't need a damn conference.

They're used to working alone and they don't trust each other enough to work together. Playmaker said from the get go it was too dangerous.

They hadn't been friends to work together like that.

That's sounds like a bad story so I don't care.

THE WORLD WAS GOING TO BE EMP BLASTED BY A CYBER TERRORIST WITH POTENTIAL CASUALTIES IN THE MILLIONS AND IT MADE MORE SENSE TO STAY WORKING ALONE?

You don't need numbers to know that 2 jobbers will handicap Chadmaker instead.

You have to admit this user has a point. Working alone would never make sense if the world is gonna be destroyed

I think that user is missing something important in their own basic human nature

>Can't even keep count

Yusaku's abrasive and doesn't work with well others, Go's a glory hog, Aoi's trying be her own hero, and they were on a limited time frame. What else is there to say?

Super threats don't spawn naturally and alliances don't form in seconds or minutes.

you describe them like they're retarded little one-note children who can only recognize and run on one internal emotion at a time instead of being actual characters. that's even worse

Based

WHEN THE ENTIRE WORLD IS IN DANGER FROM A MASS EMP BLAST, MAYBE SOME UNCONVENTIONAL LEAPS IN FAITH ARE CALLED FOR TO SAVE THEIR LIVES!!!!!!

is k, Pureimeikaa's dueling never loses

>being actual characters
Good characters don't form tag duels without having a good relationship with each other.

They all trying to leap who get to beat Revolver, first.

Why wasn't Bit & Boot a tag duel?

are you going to back that up with anything? you also don't refute how you described those 'good characters' as retarded little one-note children

They only had six hours traveling separately means more chances to stop him sooner.

Because Bit and Boot is a very shitty looking character. It felt good that Blood Shepard decided to just blast them instead of dueling them.

didn't revolver already playmaker before he would be at the tower

>this nigga who keeps trying to argue against tower of hanoi tag duels without providing any arguments and saying no u
lmao

i think it's the nuh uh guy because he doesn't make any sense

>are you going to back that up with anything?
My position is clear. Rivals or distant people suddenly teaming up in a duel is stupid. There's not even room for backstabbing in these types of duels.
>you also don't refute how you described those 'good characters' as retarded little one-note children
You're the one saying such, but given this kind of anime, shallow characterization is not unexpected. but once again you're the only one who thinks such because they established that all prior. You don't break character for no reason.

Roboppy is for ______.

There's no room for it because the characters aren't written for it.

how are tag duels or even just an attempt at one breaking their characters when other peoples' lives are on the line, and at that point aoi, yusaku, and go were defined overall as good-natured people? people are capable of being flexible in extreme situations, they're not rigid and stiff

beating BS and GG

But they weren't ever established as flexible. quite the opposite really.

>alliances don't form in seconds or minutes
Yeah, they do. Play an online shooter or something. People who have never met will team up because it is not in their best interest to go in single file and die.

no one is completely inflexible, especially an entire cast of multiple characters

I think this is stupid. Not every arc would be improved by just adding tag duels. If a series isn't designed to have them for most or all of its run then it doesn't matter.

Do it.

An online shooter isn't a planned out story.
Inflexible enough to not be on the same side in a duel is plausible though.

Being incapable of any compromise is the definition of the childishness and immaturity of a toddler. There was nothing about Aoi, Go, or Yusaku by that point in the story that said they wouldn't have been willing to team up to save lives

you're pretty much missing the point, then

>An online shooter isn't a planned out story.
Yeah, it's just people being human and playing a game. It's an example of how people work.

>muh this is not humans work
>muh planned out story
>planned out story in a season with 4 recaps
lmao you actually can't be fucking serious

It's still better to have a chunni rival then to not have one at all.

>Being incapable of any compromise is the definition of the childishness and immaturity of a toddler.
They did compromise. To each go after revolver to stop the tower of hanoi. They all had the same objective. They just weren't going about it as tag duelists. Why do you think yusaku said they fought together later on? You don't have to be tag duelists to work together.
That's not a setup for a 150 episode anime.
Tag duels for the sake of tag duels doesn't mean the anime will be better.
I've had enough of this. Tag duels aren't needed for reasonable development or to make a successful anime. I'm done.

Then if they show a clear willingness to compromise (which contradicts what you said before), there's no logical reason for them to not even attempt to team up in a duel, even if the plot ripped them apart and prevented them somehow. Instead they simply... walked off.

I'm saying the reason there weren't tag duels had nothing to do with the nature of the characters, who at that point (Yusaku and Aoi at pretty much all points in the story) align to morally good and responsible enough that they would take the logical route to enhancing their odds in stopping a world-class threat.

They didn't tag duel because of production circumstances barring the staff, or the writers not wanting to bother.

>That's not a setup for a 150 episode anime.
It's not supposed to be. It's just a trivial example of people being able to act in a way you say they don't. Like how, if I ever need an example of somebody trying so hard not to be wrong that they don't even know what their point is, I can just use your posts.

>being a human and having human like qualities if not a setup for a 150 episode anime
lmao is this nigga series
>i'm done, blah blah blah blocking my ears
lmao keep "no u'ing" retard

Nobody said tag duels were needed to make the anime successful, I don't know where you are getting this from. In my opinion, it would't hurt to have a couple of tag duels for characters interactions and their dynamics. Tag duels are not essential nor necessary but could make things more interesting in Vrains which has been kind of bland so far.

dear god I can't believe someone actually wrangled with the nuh uh user long enough to make him fuck off for once

The real kicker is that it was an impromptu alliance.

>ygorganization.com/yu-gi-oh-expands-in-collectible-market/

This announcement mostly concerns Kaibafags in France and Monaco for some reason.

Your opponent will consistently have 4 or more monsters in their grave, choosing between a HERO/Dark Fusion and getting a draw is nice. It's even generic, in case someone wants to splash this in a Fiend deck, if someone ever wanted to do that.

>Taka will have a unique offering with its high end sculptured busts available for sale throughout Europe.
Busts are from chest to the top of the head right? Are these gonna be life size or something?

Also France has a ton of weebs, so good for them I suppose.

Eh, unless the opponent drops a fivehead loli, it's useless as a first turn draw, further cementing the deck as a gimmicky second turn OTK thing. On the plus side, Aduster can search it, so it's a searchable searcher.

These characters aren't set up for such an alliance. And those are likely bad stories.
It just doesn't doesn't fit the series as it's been written so far.
Shit spammer.

Hey guys he's back
>Except they don't work together well enough tag duel.
How would you know when we haven't seen them tag duel?

He wouldn't call those people his friends until the lightning and revolver duel.

You don't need to be friends to tag duel in this show.
See: Several instances of unlikely alliance tag duels over the entire Yugioh franchise especially Yugi and Kaiba

>You don't need to be friends to tag duel in this show.
Every time that happens it doesn't make any sense.

Except it normally does when it happens
Next you're going to say that card game anime are incapably of good writing to prove your flawed point that every case of a tag duel with people who aren't friends was bad writing

>except it normally does when it happens
No, it doesn't. They never set up the rival to be lenient enough to allow it to happen.

Sometimes I just feel like Yuusaku/PM deserves to be in a better written/plotted show. The way his seiyuu delivers his lines with so much weight and gravitas is really top notch.

It's nothing special without the field spell.

Pureimeikaa's eventually

Yes it does. How much setup do you need for the rival and main character to be put into a situation against a strong enough foe or harrowing enough situation that it requires them to temporarily team up

With how much they set up rivals as assholes, a lot longer.

Kaiba is an asshole but if Mokuba is in danger his pride always comes second. Rare Hunters kidnapped Mokuba and Tea and Joey. It is consistent with Kaiba's character to do ANYTHING for Mokuba.

That doesn't mean having to work with yugi just given the plot of duelist kingdom. It probably would have been more consistent for him to just duel 1 vs 2.

Man I still remember the way he sounded so reluctant for the Kusanagi duel. Good stuff. Ishige is pretty based, and this is his first major role too iirc.

It was Battle City vs Lumis and Umbra, and that's what Kaiba actually said in the episode I think, and then Yugi called him an idiot, and then Kaiba was all tsundere the rest of the duel.

INTO THE TRANS!

I can't see how this doesn't support the idea they were too abrasive to tag duel.

I can't understand why "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" is too hard a concept for you to grasp.

But Kaiba wasn't his friend he was clearly another enemy. Do you think the brain control marik did to jonouchi was a good reason for jonouchi vs yugi duel?

Would that mean Roboppy is a boy trapped in a girl's body? If so, sign me in.

If Stalin can work with Chruchill and FDR to defeat their common enemy, Hitler, then Kaiba can work with Yugi to defeat their common enemy, Malik.
