New episode is out. Where were you when Brave Max managed to outlast majority of the other characters?
Episode 112: SOL社の凋落 – Soru sha no Chōraku (The Fall of SOL) LINK VRAINS, which should have been shut down, is now open again, and many citizens of Den City begin to log in. In order to search for clues about Ai, who has taken over SOL, Soulburner decides to investigate LINK VRAINS. There, he discovers an island he has never seen before. On the island is a country filled with household appliances. Soulburner then encounters Roboppy in the country.
Script: 吉田伸, 武上純希 || Yoshida Shin, Takegami Junki Storyboard: 須永 司 || Sunaga Tsukasa Direction: 佐藤道拓 || Satou Michihiro Animation Director(s): Lee Sung-jin, Kang Hyeon-guk
Episode 113: 家電の王様 – Kaden no Ōsama (The King of Household Appliances) In order to find some clues about Ai, Soulburner challenges Roboppy to a Duel. Soulburner attempts to reason with Roboppy.
what if this is all an elaborate scheme by Ai to commit suicide by getting one last duel with Yusaku, because this is the only way to make Yusaku duel him seriously to erase him and take back consciousness data
Ai wants to infect the entire world with this feeling because that's how he feels losing the other ignis's . This whole arc is basically a temper tantrum
>aoi could have legit won if she just used fucking the continous traps effect one last time LMAOOOOOO
Jaxson Scott
>I'll job so hard next time!
Zachary Thompson
Not that user, but even Serena had more powerful cards than Aoi at that point. And she was not the only one with cards with more than 3000 ATK, Shun, Dennis and I think even fucking Sawatari had some cards with high ATK.
Sawatari's highest original atk were 3000ATK The only characters in Vrains with monsters with higher original ATKs are Go (Chimera T Wrextle), Earth (G Golem Dignified Trilithon) and Bohman (Dragrid)
I don't get it. What is the fucking point of having blue jobber survive in this arc if she is going to be useless anyway? Didn't they kill off both GG and BS?
Why are they trying to push this narrative when she only really did burn stuff with Trickstars cause Trickstars are actually designed to burn unlike Marincess here
It seems, Aoi is the weakest, dumbest and worst duelist ever. Because people say she pisses herself. Is that a reason to hate a character because for this one time?
Why so mich hate on her? Did she commit a crime? Or did she something horrible? Is she a bad human? I don‘t understand all the hate towards her. But you are Americans. So i‘m not surprised
Christian Turner
>shitty blue jobber is still alive shame on you AI
Can this hate on Aoi please stop? Why she gets way more hate than every other vrains character?
Ryder Jones
Why is it that three posters have to ruin every single vrains thread the second Aoi gets any focus?

she an obnoxious piece of shit that thinks she's hot shit just because she's an idol she has absolutely no reason to be in any single arc or any incident lets not forget her retarded comments like when she told yusaku that they can handle AI and he should not be involved with stopping his past partner
Lincoln White

Oh yeah, if Emma would say something like that, you wouldn‘t care. You just want to hate her. Just because some people like her? I know, pieces of shit like you make her unpopular, you american cunt
Alexander Martinez
why do you care?
Jose Peterson
I feel like this is gonna blow up in Ai's face hard
Nolan Jones
Why is Aoi so hated here and not the others? Did she commited genocide or something?
any character that says something stupid will be called out for aoi is just hated because she's one of the most forced characters in the entire series followed by soulburna and revolver
Angel Gray
Hannover hooligans will crush Aoi haters. Let‘s see if you are brave enough to hate on Aoi again after that. But since you are all american republicans, you will still try
But if the force Emma or every orher in every Arc, you like it. Double standards hurensohn
Ethan Cruz
More than half of Ai's deck is overly situational effects at this point.
Carson Evans
Why is she your most hated character? Why is this her fault? Your other precious characters are forced in every arc too but then you don‘t care
Christopher Brown
emma is a hacker she at least has a reason to be included since most arcs involves getting information by hacking shit aoi has no reason to even be in most arcs since she's a shitty idol
Jacob Smith
Misogynistic bastards everywhere. If Corrupted Aqua vs Aoi would happen, you will cheer on Aqua
You only bring this argument because you love emma and hate Aoi. Emma is as shitty as Aoi. Deal with it. Arc-V was better at handling women

Because people like you want to feel cool, one of your rate moments in your useless life, and hating on characters and hurt their fans
Kevin Rogers
I fucking knew it would reference episode 48. Although, I would have preferred for Ai not to recycle PM's Ritual Summon animation and instead get a water-based one.
They won't even bother. Only Basilalima and Great Bubble Reef since they are monsters, no matter how shit their effects are.
Blake Green
I agree. Because vrains threads is just almost hating on Aoi. For no good reason. I enjoyed Arc-V threads way more

Oh boy, it's another revolver did nothing wrong arc. They only had to listen, but now the ignis is once again destroying people's lives. Just how many more cunts have to shed bitch tears before the chivalrous cuckmaker and coalburner get with the times.
Kayden Brown
>undoing Revolver is using pandor to fight him. He never promised to stop going after ignis but now he's using AI to do it.
Colton Ramirez
Remember when everybody here immediately assume that she's going to turn evil and backstab everyone? Apologize right fucking now.

They're getting so lazy you'd think the show was endin- oh wait. RIP mmo yugioh, you will not be missed. Hopefully the 2020 card game commercial will have a hardcore protag like dm or meme chars like gx. The last thing we need is a super serious convict dindu like 5ds, an insufferable optimistic child like in zexal and arc v, or a gary stu like playmaker who, despite being a mere mortal, can defeat literal hackers and cheaters with nigh unbeatable decks and the perfect situational counters at all times using nothing but his stoic big dick energy.
Heck, I can't even pretend there's suspense because he's become such a goku that nobody else who plays well will ever even get a chance to not job horribly. At this point the only thing vrains has going for it is watching the train wreck that is Ai's super high effort sudoku.
Isaiah Cox
Don't worry he's already seen it and came up with a counter play.
Jaxon Campbell
pandora is so cute I want to hug her
Jason Watson
The fuck you on about, situational cards are a thing in literally every series
Joseph Hernandez
All of you are so mean. Poor Hikky is doing his best.
It used to be disguised as a fun coincidence or legit hax. But AI's rofl stomped so many duelist with so many different decks in quick succession just using the same deck and without bricking even once, all without cheating or using a special ability like certain other villains.
At least characters like the millennium faglords and bojack niggerman had literal game breaking excuses for their contrived victories and putting up a good fight. All AI has is the kind of stupidly impossible luck that just makes it seem like they've extended his win streak for far too many duels.
Zachary Sullivan
How do you not know that its the same autistic shitposter?
Landon Phillips
>It used to be disguised as a fun coincidence or legit hax. On the one hand, sure maybe sometimes. But on the other, Pegasus' power had nothing to do with drawing but he got every card he needed to counter. Then there's stuff like neo spacians or junk cards constantly winning.
Connor Williams
>shill blue tang >but not sea angel which helps fetch you battle ocean and gives your link 3+ marincess 2k more attack Really makes me think. Did crystal heart die along with aqua?
Connor Sullivan
Considering it had Earth's data (which Bohman absorbed), most likely.
Jaxson Wright
Well battle ocean should still exist
Sebastian Murphy
aqua will come back i doubt they gave AI a human form if they weren't going to give a human form to all the other AIs
Jaxon Davis
Why didn’t she use the traps effect again to finish off his remaining 200LP?
>blue jobber >ever beating the final boss of the arc
Anthony Morales
I'm getting so tired of watching the same villain fight the same 3 or 4 people. I want to die there are still 3 more @ignister bosses to go through. This is the same reason season 2 sucked ass. At least in season 1 we had all of the different knights of hanoi and the playmaker duels against the charisma duelists to shake things up.
>3 more @ignister bosses to go through Are there? Pretty sure we went through every attribute now
Kayden Sanders
For the boss monsters? I don't remember earth wind or fire bosses. Or did I just willfully ignore them? As far as I remember we've gotten dark, fire, and water now and that's it.
Gavin Bailey
Ai still has to duel revolver. And he'll probably bring out a new monster there. Same with Playmaker.
Andrew Reed
How the flying fuck did you miss them
Brandon Wilson
>earth wind or fire Can't help myself with that one. I meant earth wind or light

Bentley Jackson
Really enjoyed today's episode. Is pic related already printed? I don't remember having ever seen a golem tindangle and boy, does it look good. I think I could build Tindangles only to play it.
Nope. It'll likely get printed in Vrains' last set.
Ayden Clark
There wasn't enough Crown Tails to banish to get Ai's LP to 0
Jeremiah Hernandez
They should've killed her off in this duel, at least that way she wouldn't fall even deeper into humilliation. She's been disrespected more than Akiza, and she was called a fucking benchwarmer lmao.
I don't remember the last time I wanted to play an anime original card so badly.
Noah Sullivan
>a different strategy >burning 100 LP Just fucking print a Trap searcher already, holy shit, it's all the deck needs. >last episode Akira banished Marincess Wave to play a glorified Book of Taiyou Remove Hikokubo.
Nicholas Adams
>She's been disrespected more than Akiza Apparently not.
Nah, nothing is more humiliating than btfoing revolver without using any new cards while he knows all your strategies through pandor and while shilling his structure, which is what I hope Ai does, humiliate him
Nicholas Perry
Earth debuted in episode 108, Light and Wind in 104. Only Boss that should be left is a Link-4.
Michael Flores
Aoi's next avatar will be an edgy, slutty Avatar called Blue Avenger, right?
Eli Thomas
I don't get why anyone would call VRAINS boring. Today's episode was really entertaining in my opinion, just like most of the episodes are.
If Aoi had simply searched Battle Ocean and looped Wave like you are supposed to play the deck the duel would have been over last episode, but since Hikokubo can't write duels for shit he just makes everyone play like retards to have the duels end the way the plot demands. Wasn't there a duel in which Aoi could Trickstar FTK?
Colton Williams
Blue Succubus.
Jaxson Murphy
Her first duel against Playmaker.
Ethan Nguyen
There was an episode where she could have kept soulburner from using burning draw by keeping lycoris on the field.
Andrew Lee
How so? >THREE FUCKING REDESIGNS >Deck changed so she doesn't even have anything remotely iconic now >Was defeated and killed many times in completely pathetic ways (hitting the ground facefirst in a completely slapstick fashion for example) >Her most relevant win is against a kid
I don't even understand why she's still around at this point, even Akiza after getting sidelined that hard still had Black Rose Dragon so she was needed, Blue Maiden has nothing.
>last set It feels so strange. Every set in this series has felt pretty lackluster so for it to be ending doesn't feel right. World legacy at least was more coherent than previous duel terminal archetypes, but the anime cards all seemed like a jumbled mess most of the time, what with the necessity for every character to get fusions/synchros/xyz/ritual At least Arc V had each character either have a theme, or just be pendulum
Asher Butler
aoi is nothing more than a cheap way to shill new cards without introducing a new character
Leo Miller
I don't even get what you mean?
Anthony Parker
Vrains' era sets felt comfy to me. What really tickles me is that it seems we won't be getting to link-8 by the end of the anime.
Kayden Rogers
>THREE FUCKING REDESIGNS In an anime about VR. >Deck changed so she doesn't even have anything remotely iconic now Crystal heart is. But this has happened before with Kaiser. >Was defeated and killed many times in completely pathetic ways (hitting the ground facefirst in a completely slapstick fashion for example) Same shit happens to characters like Kaiba and Manjoume. >Her most relevant win is against a kid Haru was an AI not a human. But really I just wanted to point out that you're calling Aki Akiza.
Aaron Gonzalez
>printed in Vrain's last set Silly user, they're reserving that honor for LINK MAHOU
Camden Morales
Kaiser is still iconic for cyber dragon
Cameron Wood
he switched to cyberdarks.
Jackson Richardson
And he's still iconic for cyber dragons
Austin Perez
Okay but Aoi is still iconic for trickstars.
Michael Barnes
Well no shit he switched since his cyber dragons got fucking limited so he couln't even play his strat
David Stewart
>In an anime about VR And she's the only one that does such a thing. >inb4 Go Heel turn was a gimmick related to his wrestling. >Crystal heart is Are you fucking kidding me?? the hamfisted Aqua link?? and Kaiser kept using his Cyber Dragons after getting Cyberdarks. >Same shit happens to characters like Kaiba or Manjoume Kaiba was never pathetically defeated with him getting kicked in the balls or some retarded shit like that. And Manjoume is a gag character, it is not comparable in any way. >Haru was an AI not a human An AI that looked like a kid. I don't even get why you bothered to make this nitpicky post with absolutely nothing worth in it.
You're a retard
Gavin Rivera
I'm saying that every set so far in the vrains era has been stuffed full of "new summoning styles" for every character, which also often made the sets feel less coherent and bloated. After FLOD, which conveniently also coincided with the end of season 1 of vrains, every set started pumping out the "summon style of the week" CYHO was ritual SOFU was fusion SAST was synchro DANE was xyz Seems obvious right? But then they also made every fucking character get those summon types and it bloated the sets with cards nobody wanted or would play, that generally didn't even mesh well with their own archetypes who were all link based originally.
Josiah Morales
That because Arc-V was powered by EGAO and SMILE WORLD
Fucking blind Aoifaggot, you can't be serious about this. After all the redesigns and even a deck change she's barely recognizable from the character she was at the start, She would be iconic for trickstars if she still was using them, Fuck even GO is more iconic than her.
Revolver switched designs so not really I FUCKING MISS HIM BROS, BRING BACK EVILVOLVER, REMOVE FUJOVULVA
Joseph Clark
Well fuck you I wanted them
Parker Bailey
Human Aqua or Miyu should be the Marincess users, not Aoi.
James Sanders
I wish they would have gone back on GO's redesign for his final duel. At least they put him back on Gouki but I missed the coat.
Jack Wood
Even after switching designs Revolver still mantained his iconic traits. Even if he does look like fujobait now. Aoi's character is all over the place
Jonathan Ramirez
Definitely, but they had to hamfist Aoi into the plot so her getting retconned into being a pseudo lost incident victim ruined her character even further
Julian Murphy
You're really blaming the anime for bloat and not the really weird filler cards?
Cooper Morris
Why are people complaining about fujobait being a thing or a problem in Yugioh suddenly when Bakura has always existed?
John Taylor
>cube That's an octahedron dummy
William Jackson
Not complaining about Fujobait in itself, just that Revolver's first design was far more menacing and fitting.
Chase Butler
>there are people who don't think Aoi will go back to Trickstars after her inevitable avatar change
Leo Howard
It's Yoshida I have no hope for her. She might not even get to kill the vacuum cleaner
Levi Barnes
Bakura is amazing. It sucks that the anime butchered his presence
>And she's the only one that does such a thing. I guess revolver and emma don't count. >and Kaiser kept using his Cyber Dragons after getting Cyberdarks. Yeah as fodder for his cyberdarks >Kaiba was never pathetically defeated with him getting kicked in the balls or some retarded shit like that. mind crushed, mind slave, and turned into stone. >An AI that looked like a kid. You wanted to pretend he was a little boy when he was a very advanced AI.
Anthony Ward
It's character development.
Jason Barnes
>changing your rivals design to make him more appealing to women I guess Hahahahahaha what a completely hack thing to do hahahahahaha
I wasn't implying that the anime is solely responsible. But normally the anime, along with the duel terminal archetypes, should be the thing to give a set a sense of cohesion along with the rest of the random shit. This time they just decided "Okay our theme is 'x-summon type' so let's make gravekeepers with a fusion and make add support for that zombie synchro we already have" And then the few anime cards they mixed in were also just "Oh here's a trickstar fusion and the way to summon it enjoy"
During the opponent's turn in which you took effect damage, if a monster battles another monster, during damage calculation: Inflict damage to your opponent equal to twice the difference in ATK between those 2 battling monsters, then destroy the opponent's attacking monster. You can only activate 1 "HAi" per turn.
Will she play super fusion with no real prompting?
Landon Sullivan
Advanced Crystal Beasts is the best corrupted archetype. Maybe Fortune Ladies are a close second.
Christian Jenkins
What is this OTK bait?
Colton Hill
Cyberse / Effect ] When this Attack Position card is targeted for an attack: You can change it to face-up Defense Position. If a monster(s) you control would be destroyed by a card effect, you can banish this card from your GY instead. If this card is banished: You can target 1 face-up monster you control; it gains 600 ATK. You can only use this effect of "Marincess Basilalima" once per turn.
She did exactly that and Chadburner used a Trap to prevent it. And her Fusion only doubled the effect damage inflicted by her Links.
And the thing is only PM got support in such a way these additions seemed natural, while with everyone else it felt forced (except for Ai, given his Deck was made with those in mind).
They better print it given they bothered to make Ai play it.
Remember the good times when Pot of Greed was GX's favorite card yet dissappeared off the show after Season 2 and the Duel Writing nosedived?
Jonathan Collins
That's one hell of a stupid card, even by Hikokubo standard.
Isaiah Mitchell
This gives me flashbacks of "making Aoi boost he Trickstar just so Violet Chimera can double it's stats"
only thing i've been enjoying from these boring duels are the designs on the Ai cards
Aiden Watson
I barely pay attention to cards and even I knew this was some bs. The only good thing about it is the pun name.
James Wood
When this card is activated: Gain LP equal to the total Link Rating of the "Marincess" Link Monsters in your GY x 100. You can banish 1 Level 5 or higher "Marincess" monster from your GY; inflict 100 damage to your opponent.
Ok, what's going on with Vrains and the relatively low tier card art lately? Like it seems obvious they'll print them since they're decks that exists but they're not done with the art before the episode airs or something?
[ ??? / Effect ] You can target 1 face-up monster you control; Tribute 1 other monster, and if you do, Special Summon this card from your hand, and if you do that, the targeted monster gains ATK equal the ATK the Tributed monster had on the field, until the end of this turn. You can only use this effect of "Tindangle Returner" once per turn. If this card is in your GY: You can target 1 of your banished monsters; add this card to your hand, and if you do, return that target to the GY. ATK / ??? DEF / 3000
This card can be used to Ritual Summon any "@Ignister" Ritual Monster. You must also Tribute "@Ignister" monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels equal or exceed the Level of the Ritual Monster you Ritual Summon. If you control a WATER "@Ignister" monster at activation, you can also banish "@Ignister" monsters from your GY.
Are we gonna get a "Ai did nothing wrong!" forgiven ending because it really feels like he's going to be another Professor Leo. I want him to end up like Edelgard.
Xavier Rodriguez
How has Vrains S3 managed to squander what little goodwill it had in only 7 episodes?
Ethan Reed
Their artwork carries Ai's S/Ts, but I'll be dammed if this isn't crap. Why not something like MAi Magic Cylinder?
Those and Great Bubble Reef prove they are Trickstars all over again. 1-2 waves of cards that range from decent to good, and the rest is crap.
Funny how both Akira and Emma played decent cards to tie their siblings' strategies with theirs (this and Fijialert) while the other used crap (BM Decision and BS none).
Jacob Torres
>goodwill anime doesn't have goodwill.
William Carter
This has one of the best @Ignister spell card art, though the name feels a little plain.
Middle-Left, Bottom-Left, Bottom-Center, Middle-Right [ Cyberse / Link / Effect ] 2+ WATER monsters
If a monster(s) is banished from the field or GY: This card gains 600 ATK until the end of this turn. You can send 1 "Marincess" monster from your hand to the GY, then target 1 of your banished "Marincess" monsters; Special Summon it. ATK / 2600 LINK – 4
Aside for the duel writing being even more horrible than usual, S3 has been going just as expected. The faster pacing is a welcome as well. I'm still willing to give it a chance.
[ Cyberse / Ritual / Effect ] You can Ritual Summon this card with "Ai's Ritual". If this card is Ritual Summoned: You can return to the hand all monsters your opponent controls whose original ATK are 2300 or less. You can target 1 monster your opponent controls; return all Link Monsters from your GY to the Extra Deck, and if you do, the targeted monster loses ATK equal to the total Link Rating of the returned monsters x 600. If this card battles an opponent's monster, halve that monster's ATK during damage calculation only. ATK / 2300 DEF / ???
The duel writing is not going to get better when appliancers have to match salamangreats.
Julian Morgan
Somehow Ai's victories feel cheap since his cards are all custom made broken cards with his own face on them. Its like when Pegasus made Toon World and everyone called him out on it.
Oh man, I remember when his deck was simpler, at least something like Property Spray can theoretically exist since it doesn't have some silly stipulations to use and its effects didn't go balls to walls
Matthew Garcia
She plays water cards.
Nolan Hernandez
Ai's deck still wins out to me for the sheer puns and funky card art.
Jaxon Cruz
So who will win, SB or Roboppi? Judging by how this season goes everyone will lose to either Ai or Roboppi then once again Playmaker pops up and defeats everyone.
>I don't get it. What is the fucking point of having blue jobber survive in this arc if she is going to be useless anyway? VRAINS is ending, do you seriously want this arc to be all about Revolver, Yusaku and Takeru? At least with Aoi alive she can give us sme fanservice and who knows maybe fuck Yusaku
she's here so yusaku can look good pulling her back from rage.
Ethan Rogers
Even if it's supposed to be boring tomboyish I like Aoi's IRL design. I wish the series would spend more time outside of the network developing the characters.
I'm guessing the writers will turn Aoi into a villain and try to pretend that she's worse than AI.
Mason Ross
>My MOST important deck lmao she'd end up looking like an even bigger poser to Ai than she already is.
Grayson Ortiz
Definitely talking about the other Pandors there.
Brody Sanders
Why? YGO always "mistreats" its female characters, but it's always been on the jobbing front, not turning traitor
Elijah Lewis
The thing is Emma is built up to be someone with mature way of thinking. She will never say such thing (or has the gut to say so). Characters that know their places can't be hated.
Nah her role is done. At best she fuses with Pandor to job again.
Chadburner since he still has to Duel against Revolver. Wouldn't be surprised if this Season will be dragged on through Duels against themselves to decide what to do with Ai.
Bentley Cruz
Him saying she hadn't felt the same sadness was already a stretch from the start, it's definitely not true now. Moreover her back story is that she was orphaned with akira so it makes even less sense.
Zachary Walker
Is Aoi the biggest jobber in the franchise? I swear every time I see this bitch duel she loses in the most embarrassing way possible. Her only 2 victories were against an irrelevant Knight Of Hanoi girl and Haru who was Ignis fodder
Sawachad. Literally everytime he showed superior strategies compared to his opponent, but had to lose due to them bullshitting their way out. He never won by himself.
Isaiah Gonzalez
Even the win against Baira was pure luck, Aoi is truly living up to her name, Blue Jobber.
Im the only girl here who still likes Blue Maiden? Look, she started as a timid girl with self-esteem issues trying to make her brother acknowledge her and now she is a proactive strong woman who doesn't give up no matter the odds and is willing to risk her life for others even if that kills her. I think that's quite remarkable even if the writers have a hateboner for her.
Nah, she's just as pathatic as Asuka, she only beat a shitty carny, Aki, whose only win was a Dark Signer who immediately left the story, her final duel in the series was against another female who was wrecking her and had to be saved by Crow,Cathy who flat out gave up on getting Yuma or even having the guts to fight one of the Barians, Anna had more guts than her and all four bracelet girls, if people still have hope of the opposite sex being a good duelist in the next series then I have no idea what to tell them
Luke Evans
There's no more time to waste on her user, this series is ending this year.
Sebastian Green
ARC-V had a lot of cool shit even if all went to shit in the end. Also, it was cute seeing Yuzu and Yuya screaming for each other all the time
The Yuzu-series were done dirtier than Aoi, yes. They were brainwashed and killed off.
Jason Reyes
She is LITERALLY named Pandor. She will fall for Ai, seduced him and then backstab him to kill every human on earth. Then Ai and Yusaku will have to Tag team her
They have over 26 episodes left, and more than half the cast is already dead. They would have killed off Aoi if she wasn't getting a fourth avatar.
Jordan Wilson

>BM vs Ai >'This time I will be the one who protects my brother!' Jobbed
James Phillips
pretty underwelhming
Tyler Price
The problem is she always loses when it matters. Against Chadmaker she got brainwashed into misplaying and got OTK'd, against Spectre he played her hard for believing to be able to understand him, against Chadburner she lost a few braincells because of challenging him for nothing and lost the same way she did against PM, against Chadman she pissed her pants so hard to forget about her face-down (besides, sending Coral Anemone would have allowed her to fetch a Marincess and survive with Crystal Heart) and couldn't save her friend (yet still took credit as seen in the flashback), and now against Ai it was a combination of all of the above.
I would cry myself to sleep for failing so much and so hard.
I like her, but I don't really give a damn how most duels go because I know the commercial nature of the show rips out a lot of the impact of outcomes.
Adrian Richardson
I think she has the most losses out of all the female protags at this point.
Alexander Howard
>timid girl with self-esteem issues >acting like an absolute cunt at school

Pissfags have ruined these threads
Wyatt Brown
Feel good brownie points for effort don't count for squat when you fail/lose where it counts or where the stakes are high.
Nolan Cook
>Nah, she's just as pathetic as Asuka Im sure you have forgotten because its been years but Asuka won a lot of fo duels and even against males. I guess the "Only boys can win duels" rule didn't existed back then
>acting like an absolute cunt at school Under dark influence. >peed herself when she realized she was about to lose to Bowman It was tense and she didn't give up either.
Christian Richardson
Vrains has a tendency of turning protagonists into villains. Season 2 Go and Current AI are proof of this. Unlike Go in season 2, Aoi would have a legitimate reason to turn heel.
Tyler Baker
Really depend on the characters and their personalities. Aoi always loses in the most embarrassing way possible.

If its not them it would've been Arc-V fags or Drains posters. The threads have long since been "ruined" already
user please. Vrains might be as good as Ac-V was at it's best(which was only the begining really) it is nowhere near as offensively bad as Arc-V was. At worst Vrains bores you, but it isn't as offensive to the senses like Arc-V at it's worst.

Try using word filters to save your brain cells. I didn't even see your post until others replied to you.
Landon Campbell
Go had a perfectly legitimate reason to turn evil.
Ethan Diaz
This And some Arcfags are autistfags too.
Colton Morgan
Assuming Pandor doesn't usurp Ai as the villain of the series, this is what I believe 100% will happen and we will get the following >Darkfluid with 13000 ATK >Ai's field is entirely empty after some combo >Yusaku refuses to attack/surrenders >Ai screeches with the fury of 1000 suns
>Ai spares Aoi "to feel my pain." >Aoi kills Vacuum Cleaner >Ai has complete and utter mental breakdown despite it all being his fault in the first place
Jonathan Ross
>She brought it up herself. It had already affected her mind and her memories. >Characters that can only talk big are trash. That's a lot of trash characters then.
Mason Perry
I thought contact fusion was a power from space.
Angel Miller
Honestly what do you expect given her opponents. This show doesn't boast a robust set of villains so most of her matches are against main villains who beat everybody except Playmaker.
Colton James
>Aoi kills Vacuum Cleaner
Sebastian Ramirez
>Aoi kills Roboppi >that means Roboppi beats Soulburner best timeline
>I would cry myself to sleep for failing so much and so hard. This is the only thing I fail to understand from her character. It's like she is mentally retarded or something. Even after failing so much, after her brother and Chadmaker told her to stay put cause she would job for sure. She kept jumping in to job over and over again.
Josiah Campbell
This duel was such a nice mirror of Playmaker vs Akira. >Akira trying to empathise with PM about the lost incident >Aoi trying to empathise with Ai about Aqua's death >Ai echoing PM's words of "time stopped for me" >PM made a point of letting both Zaizens live, by keeping their representative monsters out of the graveyard >Ai made a point by intentionally only killing Akira The duel writing this ep was meh but I'm a sucker for narrative parallels.
Landon Carter
I thought so too but apparently not. I guess the way it works is that their knowledge is shared but their feelings are separate. So the one Pandor left has felt the other three's pain(?) when they die.
Oliver Ross
>Soulburner bribes Roboppi with having the next structure deck >Roboppi OTKs Ai >PM OTKs Roboppi >VRAINS becomes a SoL anime
True, this is Yoshida. He might not be able to uphold a basic cycle of revenge story at the cost of giving Aoi a win against a mildly effective Roomba
Chase Davis
I mean we'll see. I don't know where Aoi goes from here if Soulburner kills the Roomba but it seems like the obvious choice that Ai loses his little brother for his arrogance in sparing someone to feel the pain of losing HER brother.
The repetition of revenge is like the ONE theme Vrains has been consistent on but I'm sure Yoshida can find a way to make it all irrelevant anyways
And she keeps losing doing to retarded misplays. >Should I summon Crown Tail in defense and send Crystal Heart for Tesseract's effect instead? Nope, better show that I'm ALMOST good enough! >Should I pitch Mandarin instead of another Seahorse, showcase the cards we just printed for Marincess and slam with Wonder Heart for a thematically apt victory? Nope, better walk right into Ai's gimmicky trap!
Leo Peterson
Yoshida: SHE'LL BREAK IT BY LOSING
Jace Roberts
That doesn't break it, that just leaves Playmaker to continue it.
Thomas Murphy
Playmaker thematically will be the one to end it. The one who 1st we see with a desire for revenge will be the one to call out people on their BS cycle.
Jacob Diaz
Well either way, Aoi losing wouldn't end anything.
Eli Wilson
I hate Vrains threads, I wanna go back to shitposting about all of yugioh!!!
That fucking "banish Wave (that was used on Fire Phoenix instead of on Pikari/Dark Knight because ????????) to flip a Tindangle" play last episode just fucking did it for me. Just fire Hikokubo. Every other duel characters make game-losing mistakes, forget to use their own cards or just flat out lose to otherwise useless overly situational cards. That retard doesn't even know how to play the fucking game and is probably going senile.
Joshua Hall
>Vrains might be as good as Ac-V was at it's best Absolutely not, VRAINS is fucking garbage. Not as shit as post-Standard ARC-V, but it's bad.
Parker King
Is Standard like an arc where they built up something they could absolutely never deliver on? Whether it was just too ambitious or card game commercials would just get in the way.
The thing is, they totally could have delivered. Arc-V had its share of bumps during Standard, but they got less teasing and more "here's the railroad tracks, stay on them because fuck you".
Colton Diaz
It's pretty clearly a typo.
Leo Rodriguez
I think misplays do have a place in duel writing, to show inexperience or character issues or this or that. It'd be especially useful in VRAINS, where there's a constant conflict of artificial intelligence versus humans. It's just that they seldom capitalize on it, while simultaneously spam comments from the peanut gallery, so everyone just looks retarded.
Xavier Sanders
>the megacorp in what is supposed to be a cyberpunk story is literally just a bunch of mostly harmless gobbers who's only crime is being greedy and killing just one AI and even Revolver just forgave them when he realized everything was actually Lightning's fault
What the fuck was the point of SOL other than to be the ones that host LINK VRAINS?
Hudson Powell
That really was the only reason they existed.
Angel Baker
Well, whatever you say. All I know is it wouldn't have been the first time.
Incompetent and greedy is one way to make a corporation in a cyberpunk atmosphere. Especially if you wanted to emphasize the unintended effects of their actions.
blue maiden is not hated cuz is a woman, so no misogynist here.
Jordan Foster
Tbf with pic related, you wouldn't expect an Ignis to give himself up like that. Would have been easier to send a DM to PM given Flame had no problems doing it.
John Davis
Super dueling and programming intelligence can't save him in the sphere of communication.
sadly another wasted design just like most of Arc V characters, writers make it blatantly obvious that they hate her, look at the abuse she has been through in her losses. It's cruel
>Go directly responsible for killing Earth >Ai gives him a quick death, saying that he doesnt hate him >Aoi actively fought to defend Aqua and was sad when she was gone >FUCK YOU AOI ILL KILL YOUR BROTHER AND SPARE YOU SO YOU WILL ALSO SUFFER KNOWING YOU DIDNT RESCUE THE ONE YOU LOVE ???
Jeremiah Allen
Trap negation is for duelists who have to duel Ghost Girl.
Man the shitty S/Ts Ai keeps asspulling just made my already really bad day even worse. At least the summoning chant was pretty cool. First two lines could have been from some Briah incantantion from Dies or something.
This was kinda funny. Everybody gets to die for like 5min and speak their last words while they turn into particle effects. But Zaizen just instantly fucking vanishes before Aoi even finishes her sentence.
Don't forget the part where they have to split the lines evenly between each character
Henry Rodriguez
I honestly hope it goes far enough with one of them dead for good. Also the only thing Ai could do at this point to enrage Playmaker is to kill off both Jin and Hotdog bro, I hope he does it. Then Robby will take out Soulburner and Punished Aoi will take out Robby
Gavin Reed
Where the hell do you fit soulburner vs revolver into that scheme? Personally I would like to see a double elimination from a catastrophic clash.
Michael Wood
Apparently we're getting new info on YGO7 next week
Jack Cooper
Someone pointed out something to that effect earlier. I don't know how they could do something like DM Super when girls get a lot more duels these days.
it's gonna suck if they do release info. Having to wait almost a year knowing what they will reveal is gonna suck
Kevin Kelly
It won't happen because it's a pointless fight now, or maybe it will if say Soiburner defeats Robby and opts to spare him and Revolver kills him anyway
Ayden Morris
>It won't happen because it's a pointless fight now Not after how much it's been built up. It would be a demonstrable failure if they didn't deliver on some kind of conflict.
>I don't know how they could do something like DM Super You imbeciles have been saying DM Super will be a thing since ARC-V ended. Are you aware of how retarded you are being?
It doesn't make sense for it to happen but it still will because the writers have no clue what to do anymore
Christian Martin
>well at least he put up more than a fight than blood shepherd and ghost girl >we're running out of rezs for those two idiots
Brayden Miller
I don't want something like that to happen, but I have to admit the possibility is haunting. You never know what they might do to milk the franchise. They could make an indirect sequel with original characters that coincides with it.
So I don't know what this image says, but apparently the official release trailer, streamable.com/ogh53, has the announcer say "The History of Yu-Gi-Oh will change!"
There's not a lot to go off of, but the trailer DID show ALL the previous protags, something I don't think it would do if the new series was DM Super.
Standard Yuzu is literal best girl ever, rivaled only by theoretical Anna Kaboom who used TRAINS the right way.
But that's STANDARD Yuzu
Kayden Butler
>DID show ALL the previous protags, something I don't think it would do if the new series was DM Super. It happened too with the trailer revealing VRAINS. Doesn't mean they'll make DM Super. God how stupid that sounds

>Kaito >despite the fact that none of his decks have ever been good >and the writers fucked him by giving him 3 different archetypes across 2 animes that's like the opposite of shilling
