Ishizu hasn't really gotten any retrains or legacy support in general. They'll run out of other DM characters to support sooner or later.

Actually, Mai used Valkyria in the anime while Ishizu used her in video games, so I'm not sure about that. I mean I'd take it, but I don't think it'll work out that way.

Didn't Mai use amazoness + harpies? I could've sworn Ishizu was the one that used Fairies.

Who's the hardest Vrains character to draw/animate?

>Actually believing this
He is still a major player in both anime and card game. There's a reason why official tournaments don't have cash prizes.

If you actually think he's had any kind of impact past ZEXAL you're delusional. And the whole cash prize thing for moral reasons is just semantics. It's really up to Konami what they want to do and it's the sensible thing to not have cash prizes because that just invites toxic people to the game which turns away the kind of crowd Konami wants playing.

It would require an abundance of new characters. That's the only deterrent I can think of.

Legit but stupid question: You cannot pull that off irl or you get DQ'd right? Saying "I don't have it" despite just having added "x" card to your hand.

The rulings nowadays mean the following
>If you activate Mind Crush, call a card, they say they don't have it. You have to accept that unless there is sufficient evidence to go against it.
So if your opponent searched the card and you declare it and they still say no, you can call a judge because you KNOW it's in their hand.
The previous ruling meant you could look at their hand to see if they are lying but that added additional value to Mind Crush which the card never stated to have.
The rulings now are under the impression that your opponent isn't trying to cheat. So cards that summon from deck face-down etc. don't need to be verified but you can call a judge if you can prove they are malicious

I understand your opponent revealing its hand was something never stated on the card, but it still feels stupid because just that being the only way to secure your opponent isn't lying.
And we are still wondering if Linguriboh is Linkuriboh reprogrammed or not. If PM doesn't use it, we'll have to assume it's the former.

>still wondering if Linguriboh is Linkuriboh reprogrammed or not
I don't think we've ever wondered that. Different name+link marker placement. It's probably another monster Ai created since he's emo now.

It takes the utility out of other cards like the eye of truth if they allow you to check.

konami fears gravekeepers. they have been doing everything they can to not update the archtype. because they know what will happen the moment they uodate the deck kek

They updated it in 2018 and nothing happened

Ishizu didn't use Gravekeepers until Konami stuck them to her for Duel Links. Her original deck is a vague Fairy/Egypt-themed deck.

Attached: O My Second Activation.png (864x329, 145K)

didn't knew gravekeepers got retrains that actually made the deck playable by modern standards

she used gravekeepers in all of her tiers in tag force special you duel links memelord.

>chess pieces
user...

They got new cards, which is what "update the archetype" means. Not whatever idea you had in your head but didn't actually type out.

DROPPED PLOT POINT

I agree with this

>divine ignis
Oh right... We had this meme back then...

Isnt that literally bohman
Or what his endgame was

Never played 'em, so I'll give you that. However, it still stands that Gravekeepers aren't her original deck, thus if she gets legacy support, it can actually be for her deck.

and his strategy was perfect.

Ai should've asked Yusaku to be his therapist before resorting to suicide mission. He is the wise representative of all the good of mankind, after all

the animators are technically off model if they don't channel enough CLAMP and their sticc legs when drawing Ai

Yaoi hands included?

Kek
I heard the voices while reading

Yes. Those are important

Judai was such a downer, and he ran out on everyone to wander the desert. Learning to have fun again doesn't mean the ending was the most happy in hindsight.

It's honestly a wonder they still find anyone at all willing to put up with animating yugioh monsters on weekly anime deadlines. It would be one thing if they never moved but any boss that isnt a cgi model is going to be doing something in motion

There's a lot of room on the track for 4 d wheels
But I guess it would be hard to draw 4 characters and d wheels plus their fields/monsters at the same time if they had to keep doing that consecutively for a period

He didn't run off on anybody. Did you just completely miss the whole point of the season, that everybody was graduating and going their own separate ways in life?

Is that why he didn't even bother to say goodbye to anyone? Seems like he ditched as fast as he could.

Almost the entire season was people figuring out what they want to do with their lives and saying their goodbyes

set up for what?

7/24 are about that, the others are about fighting darkness. Honestly it didn't seem upbeat to me. Not that it should have been after yubel stuff.

He never has casual duels, they're always with Ai on the line.

Ai would have been an absolute god-tier antagonist if they had given him more time and buildup (and he wasn't spending most of these episodes just watching stuff). The potential was there

Wrong question, playmaker should have asked if he could have the AI robots he build be hot chicks instead of guys.

It's not a surprising move when everyone and their grandma has been rising the nostalgia train, but that's why I wouldnt like it. I've seen enough of yugi and co. They were good and really likeable, but this is one of the only anime franchises left still doing long running anime originals, I'd like to see just one franchise to not nostalgia tread ALL the time. The card game can print and advertise as much legacy support as it wants.

Stuff like digimon tri was shit

I think yusaku is the first truly asexual MC in yugioh. Mostly because he doesnt love anything in general

The rest is fine I just think windy and soulburner could have been established in another way.

Nostalgia is kind of dangerous. I mean, it can literally makes one not appreciate or even dislike something new related to that. For example, with RE2 Remake soundtrack. The music is pretty nice, but I couldn't fully enjoy it because I did wanted some similiarities with the original RE2
Also thanks for reminding me how dissapointed I was with Tri. Even without the nostalgia thing, I though there were a lot of lacking elements and plotholes...

It's not my preferred outcome but I wouldn't lose my head over it. I'd probably enjoy people thinking it would be like the old series and then being disappointed. But, I would rather have an original series that could keep a premise. Also, a tri writer was one of the major writers for vrains, and most of his episodes were alright.

Personally I'm just exhausted at seeing full force nostalgia cash ins from everything, much of which has been underwhelming as an actual product like the Disney remakes. I didnt even fully watch shows like game of thrones, korra, or voltron but even when they're normal shows somewhere outside of the nostalgia remake sphere they end up disappointing their fans as well by the end.
And it's like damn, what does a fan around here have to do for a satisfying longform viewing experience from a recent piece of media that had some ambition (at least early on) with narrative or characters.
Remakes or nostalgia driven sequels arent necessarily bad all the time (like the newer blade runner movie) but they just dont capture that inherent energy and freshness of something new to me

I got it.

In Arc-V, after Standard, what we see are Solid Vision holograms.

Aoi will hug Akira, but I have no idea what Aoi and Yusaku's possible exchange will be

>manga
I think Yoshida's mommy stuff killed any good will

I still remember when apparently one of the korean animators who animated for korra said the only reason anyone in the studio liked her a little bit was because she was hot. Since her personality was being a bimbo brat

Are you really implying that Yoshida ending killed manga hype? If yes then you should really check the new manga because I see it's doing pretty fine meaning that you are wrong

Due to not having that many chapters each besides dm there's often a lot less to the spin off manga compared to the anime series
Separating the manga and anime with the new card game focused one is probably better

I meant on /arc-vrains/, mate.

Not like the manga has ever been particularly discussed here to begin with.

How could they make an anime worse than ArcV and Vrains? What would they have to do?
At this point I'm not so sure anymore. Maybe YGO has already hit rock bottom.

By being the Zi-O of YGO

>Do people even care about the manga?
Eveyone and their mothers know the only worthwhile Yugioh content is the DM Manga and Anime Spin-offs. No one gives a flying fuck about their Manga because the usually end up being incredibly short and rushed. Plus they somehow end up having more shilling because they are 24h Dueling with little to no interactions or proper character development. The only Manga that is remember fondly (kind of) is GX because of Chazz being awesome but then you have people complaining they made Jaden a complete jobber

Attached: yugioh-legacy-duelist-link-evo-hero.jpg (800x600, 171K)

Well it's not impossible that things simply stay on the decline for the anime side. There are other studios who no longer hold a candle to their past glory days and have done no better than simply hanging on with bad seasonal anime for several years

The recent Tamers Blu Ray came with a drama CD that was basically a pitch by Konaka for a sequel. The set didn't sell nearly as well as either the Adventure or Adventure 02 set, because for as much as they bitch about it, Tamers fans do not put their money where their mouths are the way Adventure fans do.

the issue is that the new people that are entering the entertainment industry are literally too dumb or PC to create something new. and yes there is PC movement even in japan. just look at how toned down shounen have gotten over the years. you can see this is others productions too.
tamers is a full story that already had a beginning, middle and end. there is no point in continuing it. adventure niggers that refuse to see that shitshow ending. the staff behind the new game even admitted that pandering too much to adventure was what fucked up the state of the franchise in the international market alongside ignoring every other market outside japan in terms of new products. it took cyber sleught to sell 1 million copies in the west for bandai to greenlight new shit

And now we have Digimon Survive, a game where Habu specifically cites Adventure as the main inspiration.

Also, tell that to all the Tamers fanboys (including those in this thread) asking for a continuation of Tamers and whining that only Adventure gets new stuff.

You get older and less tolerant of card games? How about this? Pandor opens a box and connects all the worlds of yugioh,

Both the arcV and Vrains eras gave us great looking characters and great duels.

Attached: Antihanoi team sleepies.png (730x665, 221K)

That sounds retarded. Honestly I'm willing to watch anything as long as the characters are good. DM works because even though the premise is stupid the characters are well written and loveable and I am willing to put up with the stupid because Kaiba is compelling.

GX had a light hearted plot and lighthearted characters. I dropped it at the start of S3 because it started getting too serious.

5Ds had an extremely stupid gimmick and stupid characters that felt like rehashes of characters we've already seen.

I will laugh my ass off when nostalgia kicks in and people say Vrains was the "last" good ygo.

a few people on internet don't hold much weight. most of the tamers fanbase just accepted that it ended. since growing and accepting that shit changes was a heavy part of main plotline.
retards who scream for always wanting new seasons/movies of a particular story of a franchise is the reason franchises across the board are being ruined. combine with every new staff team being worse at producing art and we get this era of remakes. Nostalgia should be used only in break the glass scenarios to save a franchise. or special events. otherwise you ended up like mecha genre and sentai. where the fanbases grows older and you are pretty much cornered by a few thousands of nerds who keep buying the same shit while the number decreases over the years and your franchise has no new blood being interested into it which makes it unsustainable

well that just leaves zexal. did you watch that one?

DM is fucking trash you retard. even in japan they only care about 5Ds and the Original manga storyline.
and people only started giving an actual fuck about GX when it started getting more serious. you always makes the same stupid fucking post

It's been over 10 years last time I watched tamers. If I recall correctly, it ended on some sort of a cliff hanger/open ended.
Also for whatever reason that ED2 made me supper depressed.

No. I just lost interest at 5Ds. Either I grew out of the show or the premise was just top ridiculous for me to overcome and give it a chance. I think I watched the first two episodes. Yusei wasn't interesting enough to make the card games on motorcycles less dumb.

I like DM and the first two seasons of GX. I also think the GX dub is hilarious, but I also watch it stoned.

I know, but I really like Virtual World a lot. Noa is my favorite antagonist and I really felt bad for him. I also think I'm more a fan of just Kaiba than Yugioh as a whole, but I like Chazz for being a good subversion of Kaiba and a shonen rival.

What a retarded post. Where do the see people even come from?

You're in charge of naming the next yugioh series, how do you name it?

>How did VRAINS turned out worse than ARC-V?
But was it really? I wouldn't say VRAINS is worse than ARC-V, at least not yet. I mean, sure, VRAINS has been a rather dull and unexciting ride from beginning to end with a very safe plot and no fun plot twists but at least the writing never became plain retarded right?. From a writer's standpoint, is obvious the better written show was VRAINS but being honest, I don't think is fair to compare them by that alone. ARC-V was a show with genuine potential and fun content for the first half of its run. It had an interesting plot and characters that generated a lot of discussion. Sadly, the plot betrayed itself and became a mess but the second half being shit, really erases all the good stuff ARC-V had? In comparison VRAINS was the complete opposite. Whereas ARC-V had an ambitious plot with lots of potential, VRAINS never took any risks and thus never left an impression. From a viewer standpoint one could say ARC-V was the better show because it tried more things and was more fun but I think what we should really be asking ourselves is, what's more important in the end? The writing or the enjoyment of the viewer?. With that being said, I personally had more fun with ARC-V but I see VRAINS as the better written show of the two.

But to finish this argument I think answering this question should be more than enough to end this debate.

¿Did VRAINS had a whole country and army turned from the worst people imaginable to good guys from one minute to another? No? Then VRAINS was better.

We'll probably get a 4-minute showcase of everybody coming back to life (AGAIN) and living happily ever after at the end of 120, but VRAINS isn't ending on a good note IMO. The kino that was Soulburner vs. Reolver doesn't make up for an extremely rushed final season.

Oh yeah, and "Are you ready?" blows chunks. Worst ED, even worse than "Writing Life". VRAINS was never going to top "Believe in Magic" anyway.

>Miyu was a nearly-pointless plot device since the writers couldn't figure out how to believably retcon Aoi as an LI victim over 70 episodes in
But that's just wrong. Aoi is based off a god who exists in direct contrast to that cult. People just overhyped how important the victims are.

Not that user but in the larger picture a show like vrains is less malicious or duplicitous to potentially interested viewers, compared to how arc v did thingd. If it drains viewership on account of failing to hold interest or turning ppl away early on it still is going to get the appropriate consequences of course

The only good yugioh is the one that is currently airing at any given point in time and space.

There's so many cool things that could've been done if the show had more time
>Ai clones invade Link VRAINS
>Naoki as Brave MAX sees players about to get attacked by an Ai clone
>Steps in to duel it regardless if he can win or not

>Literally anything to do with any of the Lost Incident children. I'm not even a LIfag but having Windy's partner just be dead, Miyu be in the hospital constantly and having Jin's memory wiped while Spectre eats shit instantly feels quite bad.
They could've had something neato
>Windy's partner (he wasn't even named for fucks sake) could've shown up and tried to talk Windy out of his stupid shit
>Miyu could've gotten jealous at Aoi and Aqua's teamwork and act like a child who has had her favourite toy stolen, ultimately ending in her giving up Aqua to Aoi.
>Jin could've used Armatos Legio or something idk
>Spectre couldn't really do shit with Earth considering he was fucking dissected but it could've been nice to have Spectre get revenge somewhat on SOL for that

>Pandor could've been the end boss, self-replicating instead of Ai in order to gather as much information as possible
>Pandor uses Storm Access to generate new Topologics for herself.
>Since she is using multiple clones and all her memories and shit are shared across the clones, any Storm Access carry on through to each clone.
>Have each character duel one of the clones, the ones that job can job as usual and the ones that beat her cause the Storm Accesses
>Playmaker, Revolver, Ai, Soulburner, Aoi and Go actually manage to beat the clones
>Playmaker and Ai vs Pandor Prime
>Pandor drops a LINK-7
>Ai and Playmaker join forces with a LINK-8
>Revolver and Playmaker have their ceremonial duel, PM wins
>Playmaker and Ai have their ceremonial duel going all out without stakes, PM wins

The only YGO that's still universally considered good to this day is DM and most of the time 5D's.

I needed a third Playmaker vs Go duel.

I actually like that vrains didnt redeem irredeemable characters, I also like that kogami and the ignis all actually died and stay dead. Hell this ending is pretty much announcing that ai is gonna die too.

This says nothing about how to make Pandor convincing as a final boss. An enabler somehow for the final boss is believable, but fanfic like this never bothers to do follow through on suspension of disbelief and bridging the gaps between events that seem cool

>There's so many cool things that could've been done if the show had more time
if the show had more time it would still be the same thing with things being thrown out of the window. in fact it would make things worse considering how bda the production of ygo has been since xyz saga in arcv. we are talking 5-6 years of non-stop incompetent staff, user.

Awkward and abrasive yusaku was best yusaku. In s2 and forward one thing about yusaku is that we barely get any idea of what he personally thinks about whatever's going on, besides the surface level "bad guys need to be defeated".

This. How do people expect things to magically flip for the better if it wasnt better for the first 100 episodes just because hypothetically there couldve been more time, when the same people behind it are still there.
It's like the poor sods who think that arc v couldve saved itself if it just had more time for the last 2 arcs, even though it's still the same show and staff that wasted away all that time in synchro arc in the first place. Sometimes a certain team of people are just not going to work well delivering a product even if they gave all the time in the world.

I'd say Arc-V is worse because of the impact it had irl. Took away most people's good will because of all the hopes it crushed.
I can get excited for Standard and the like, but then I remember Synchro Hell, Egao and Make a Baby Smile came afterwards.

This one was alright. Went well with the visuals for the beginning of S2 pre-Ignis War.

Still not as bad as having to shoehorn the former sidekick and anthropromorphized Roomba's new looks into the existing ED for the last 18 episodes.

So the next anime will have skills won't it?

I really dont see how 2 additional stills in ED5 compare to the visual jigsaw puzzle mess of ED2. Those photobashed bgs are a tragedy

depends if they will shill for duel links and speed duel format or not

Synchro arc is a slog even when trying to marathon it because the stakes are dumb and it doesnt payoff anyway. It's just not worth the 2 minutes of Sergey memes when those clips are on youtube

Considering the popularity of Duel Links, I wouldn't be surprised if Speed Duels became a staple going forward. If they do bring back skills I hope they do more weird shit like a skill that has Convulsion of Nature permanently in effect.

It hit a peak with Shun vs Dennis 2 but then it spiraled downwards. Fittingly enough, it's literally the middle point of the show.

More like everything involving Ray, Reira and Z-ARC wasn't well implemented. The former had no foreshadowing, the middle one had psychic abilities out of nowhere to then transition into a woman, and the latter was just BB all over again.

I'd like to think the one time we saw into his thoughts when he fainted are pretty much his perspective all the time: "This is tiring, I just want to go home and sleep".

they showed skills and speed duels=duel links in vrains and it failed horribly the best duels are usually master duels=tcg/ocg they should just go back to shilling only tcg/ocg because duel links doesn't need shilling because it gets supported by the tcg/ocg printing and adding cards to it all the time

I don't know what the hell Kamshiro and Hikokubo were smoking when they were writing Arc-V's final duel.

I genuinely hope so. It's not like the anime can be an accurate shill anyway.

If I see something cool happen in the anime, I can't even get it in the game. There's no point.

I'm unironically still disappointed Ai is gonna be our ceremonial duel. I mean, by YGO standards, it makes sense but the execution is so dumb

Digimon is a dying franchise with nostalgia as the only thing that keeps it alive, it's like an agonizing, comatose man in a hospital struggling to live

>tfw bohman got FIVE noh episodes spent on him in s2
Really jingles my jangles

There are physical speed duels now though.

now that we know that Vrains is just going to have 3 episodes left Bohman getting this many episodes pisses me off even more

All according to plan.

It's the most egregious abuse of it just so yuya can have his monster eff go off or something when they didnt really need to write the card to need that. It was a time waster in what should be one of the biggest duels

Bohman's actions at least had some degree of long-lasting consequences, Roget doesn't even get that
Still shouldn't have gotten as many duels as he did though and his deck is so dull

Is it okay to hate Hydrives now?

they are shit no matter who uses them

I hope the producers wrote him and his team an apology letter for making him put so much effort into a character and duel as terrible as battle beast

Ironically Roget was Arc-V's best villian. So unredeemable Yuzu tackled him.

speed duels are like early on duel links format it's slow but bound to get speedy soon enough because yugioh as a game can't be balanced and that's a good thing

Out of all of Vrain's anime-only archetypes, Hydradrive grew less and less likely to ever see print while everything else grew more likely as the show goes on and I don't think I've ever seen such as a thing go on like that.

Hydradrives should be released as a Link-5 Deck. Bohman ditched Property Zero because it was pointless against PM's Deck and its varied Attributes.

I mean assuming he didn't like drawing it is just egregious I would say.

Those artists who manage to reach a higher tier in their field actually tend to be the most smartest and insightful, because you have to be in order to be able to fix your weaknesses and improve your skills at a good pace.
So the best animators they have would probably be the first on the animation team to notice if a character is actually fucking shit rather than only meh or forgettable

All ugly except for the snake/naga ones and perfectron

You are optimistic. They delayed Zexal world for a stupid Nostalgia world. Vrains isn't happening at all.

They can throw around as many nostalgia worlds as they want in games if it means they'll stay away from ruining the good note DM finished on with DSOD with the anime

I won't deny I am, but if they added one world per year they'd run out of worlds and catch up to the anime. That's my thought process at least.

And it literally had NOTHING as a consequence, except making Reira seem stupid for supporting a naked woman spirit over his/her own brother.

Now if they only could have done the parts of the allegory that people would have gotten a lot more excited about.

They really shouldn't try to judge anime, they're really bad at it, they're just gamers.

He should have dueled some other opponents earlier on. Not just learn from playmaker.

I love it!

I wish that episode had had a better animation director.

which MC from other anime do you guys think worked as YGO MC?

Everything about this image feels so cozy. The serafuku, the bike, the old timey houses. No wonder Takeru wants to go home.

>THE WAIFU
I'd want to go home too if I were Takeru

Why are they so boring and lifeless

I'd maybe like to see an "ultimate bluffer" kind of character, a bit like Phoenix from ace attorney. Acts like Sawatari on the outside, but panics on the inside. At the moment no other anime MC is jumping to mind. I dont expect much from a ygo MC though, only hoping the rest of the cast is stronger and the next MC like yusaku soaks up a smaller % of duels.
I've said it before but maybe yugioh should try the danganronpa formula to an extent because of its simplicity. Exaggerated personalities that would be one note on their own but the entertainment comes from interacting a lot with each other.

I actually like vrains' ost when I'm listening to it alone but when I hear it in the show it's like "meh"

To fit the user.

Same here. I've been listening to the OST all day and it's fucking great. But unless it's a standout track like Extra Link, Firewall Dragon, Extra Monster Zone, Punishment etc I generally don't notice it in the show.

Maybe it couldve simply been placed or used better by the sound director or whoever. Or it's a lot more suited to a video game where you could hear them in full

Yeah I think sometimes the voices and sound effects cover up the music a lot, especially in duels. The characters are pretty much talking over the music all the time, and all the comboing means a ton of summoning/effect sfx.

The one and only.

Hydrives were great. It is one of my favorite anime only decks.

idk if it's just my nostalgia but i think 5d's had better animation than zexal/arcv and vrains.

Was that before or after she was dealing with her company issues

Yes it's your nostalgia
Zexal has the most consistent animation, 90% of Zexal looks as good as the best animated 5D's episodes

No chance.
Riding duels don't let you see as much animation as Standing duels. Funny how it sounds.

Attached: 6c9ff32c7c55a940c5f51d85d1f78022.webm (853x480, 2.93M)

Nostalgia since 5ds had more janky looking episodes than zexal did, overall. Solely on animation and not considering anything else about the visuals, zexal simply had the most animation talent to work with. It's common knowledge that things started to dip with arc v, likely due to broader industry problems

...why tho

Nostalgia. I'm rewatching Dark Signers and the art and animation are kind of shitty.

You're wrong about zexal but in the larger picture the period of both 5ds - zexal was the peak when it comes to high points for yugioh spin off animation if you ignore pre wrgp.
Team ragnarok was basically filler but how they managed to make that entire duel look so good for a weekly tv anime I'll never know. Zexal also had a few glorious stretches where they lined up their best guys (like noh, yokota, hara, and ebina) all in a row

>on that list only noh is still around consistently
Oof...
Well they did promote replacements but it's clear they don't get the time they'd like to add polish and flex what they can realpy do to exercise their capabilities

What happened to Hara anyway? He did the character design for Vrains. Is he still doing animation work?

It's a shame, because it doesn't have to be like that. I think a lot of it is just matching the timing of OST to what's happening onscreen. Just look at 5D's.
>Yusei draws, looks at his card, gives a slight smile as his theme starts and he starts combo'ing
>Jack ORE NO TURN's, his theme starts as he WAGA TAMASHI's
>Yusei declares Stardust won't get taken again as he revs up, cut to Zero Reverse flashback as Clear Mind starts
>Z-ONE's theme plays as his monsters attack and he muses that he won, it reaches the turning point as Power Tool Dragon's eye cuts through the smoke

The nordic stars aligned for them
I think it also shows how much individual talent and skill can matter. It's not like noh or the other in house ppl in vrains get any more time than anyone else or has a Harry Potter time turner. They're simply good at their jobs and can draw worth a damn.

He's probably slowed down with age. He's worked on anime since the 80s iirc. I think he's a case of hard work rather than having a lot of natural talent, since it took him until around later DM in the early 2000s to get gud enough to be a regular AD on yugioh.

Oh I pressed submit before adding on that while hara reached the passing mark for AD position in DM he didnt get /GOOD/ until 5d's - zexal. Somewhat of a late bloomer in his career.
Ebina probably had the fastest rise and it seemed like the studio higher ups were really proud of him with how relatively quickly they put responsibilities on him.

When are we getting another Bakura/Vector as villain?

Not them but the small monsters are cute, the boss ones with exception of the one who destroyed the cyberse show power and authority, plus the dice gimmick is always welcomed.

Vrains pretty much was it.

they have Divine-Beast monster
hardly a filler team, only underused

Them being Divine-Beasts and DIVINE Attribute in the Anime doesn't matter if they don't get released as such. Same happened with the Sacred Beasts.

>old guard animators taking a back seat
>new guy that you train up leaves
I hope Gallop gets things together during these six months.

No, that's definitely your nostalgia, especially Zexal, I'm pretty sure that has the highest budget a YGO series had

Windy, but he wasn't that great at it

Yeah, even firm loyalty has its limits. Not sure what they'd do if the newer ADs they promoted decide to leave as well since I doubt they have that many promising young animators to spare. It's a bittersweet thing to be promoted during arcv or vrains when they know they're taking the position in stressed and difficult conditions.
I'm gonna guess noh is willing to stay until he dies or yugioh dies tho

Learn what canceled means.

Why can't they just make high quality YGO series that have something like 64 episodes? Why do they have to be 150 episodes long?

Product cycle.

That's what happens when your show is tied to a card game.

They originally wanted that for 5ds but that's when execs cemented the idea of a firmly 3 year cycle with the tacked on part 2 extension. Pre production and planning concepts for each series takes a lot of energy plus they REALLY want the anime to always be on year round. So 3 years is where they settled for each series of sets and corresponding anime. Whether this is truly optimal and efficient is another thing

I bet the next one will have more brain control.

Attached: 1567473578336.png (894x894, 1.89M)

The anime is just to advertise the card game

the casual side doesn't matter user they mostly care about the hardcore competitive base that buys product and travels to events they make 150+ episodes because the show is basically an add for the card game or duel links they just care about card sales and how the game is doing

I don't play the game outside Duel Links but I heard link summoning was basically a mistake.

links are mistake that brought loops and ftk's back to the game but somehow that didn't stop duelists from keep playing the game

Attached: ojamas.jpg (900x435, 452K)

It's a matter of opinion.
I personally love Links and the restrictions it provided to previous Synchro, Xyz and Pendulum spam decks. Firewall was mainly the problem with the format. If Firewall never existed, Links would be based as fuck

Attached: FirewallDragon-LVB1-JP-EScR.png (493x726, 956K)

It is. Because instead of Konami creating a new, interesting summoning method, in harmony with the former ones, they changed the rules to nerf them and made Links the only viable option in the game.
I don't even know what they will create after Links, but I am really afraid they will break the game once again.

Extra links are the game at its finest.

That was firewall dragon's fault, not links

firewall was part of the problem not the whole problem some other links also contributed to how people didn't like the mechanic like gumblar

Gumblar is a problem but the main reason why people hated it was due to both Firewall AND Gumblar existing in the same format.
Gumblar ripping 4 cards out of your hand would be fine if that was the entire turn but due to Firewall, you could set up an Extra Links with Knightmares that
>was indestructible by battle or card effects
>couldn't be targeted

With firewall jailed how are things now

gumblar probably will be banned in japan soon now that they finally got dangers!
the game is fine now the format is stale but the upcoming banlist will fix that

Pretty sick.
There are a handful of decks that are good
>Deck revolving around using a single monster with multiple forms that can swap out to them. Entire deck relies on Spells to function and has it's own Pot of Greed/Searcher (Sky Striker)
>Salamangreats, utilizing Reincarnation Link Summoning to stun the opponent with a negate and usually OTK with Violet Chimera
>Thunder Dragons are a Fusion deck that seeks to stop the opponent from searching using their alternative summoning conditions to cheese themselves out. Usually paired with other engines to create nuttier boards
>Guardragons/Dragon Links are a deck that uses the Guardragons. These are LINK-1 and LINK-2 monsters that special summon Dragons from various places as long as you have an empty Zone where two or more Links are pointing to it. They use this to cheese out Dragons from the Extra Deck and loop Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon to special summon a bunch and end on like 5 negates

>makes one of the most boring villain, bohman, quality but souless episodes
>makes an old card, the most bad quality AND jobbing
This is the moment where I wanted NAS to either get rid of Yoshida or get bankrupt
Is a good thing AI is charismatic and had been here since the longets of time. Unlike robopy who was a comic relief turned into a despicable shitty attempt at Sora 2.0

He was boring

>makes an old card, the most bad quality AND jobbing
Old cards aren't respected unless they're aces. They also wouldn't have shown up at all if queen was a major villain.

Yusei is my favorite protagonist and it breaks my heard how bad his deck is.
I know you can make it work but it's not the same as before MR4.

>Blackwing in Arc-v
>also Red Demon Dragon
>also Cyber Angels
>also some other ones
VRAINS only thing with nostalgic cards is making them jobs without even making them looks nice. Allure Queen only being there without seeing how she plays was retarded as fuck.
VRAINS is literally the disrespectful grandson that should be disinherited

Except the CHADS Mirror Force and Imperial Order.

N E D L E F I B E R

It's still not the same.

I didn't watch arc-v, but I didn't get the impression from most of those who did that those were the best representations of those characters and cards.

Kek

He didn't start out boring but his transition into Kizunaman was pretty bad

He was annoying but the secondaries totally made up for that. Zexal is the best spin off.

>Yusei will never ride Aki
Not fair bros.

Still my soul.

How come he's the only protagonist to not get a Structure Deck yet?

He doesn't need the structure. He is literally the cheapest OTK deck that can work alone

His deck is already powerful enough, he doesn't need more help.

Why is Seto Kaiba so perfect?

Why are the AIs suddenly evil? What did I miss?

they're aren't (kind of)

>What did I miss?
The show, apparently. It's all explained.

Because Ai "doesn't want to be lonely"

Boy, it's almost like VRAINS hemorrhaged viewers and now they're mildly curious about the tidbits they hear about this season.

Yes.

The thread kept about 100 posters at all times so it is very likely that lots of people jumped in too.

most peole here are waiting for quickdraw to spawn

They can watch the show then, or read episode summaries.

One A.I. was butthurt because of being unable from birth to coexist with humans and his actions spiraled into where we are now.

>Most
If that were the case they would get ~50 requests and replies when dumping. People are here to watch the show.

>People are here to watch the show.
not me, im here to shit the place

Speak for yourself, I'm here to talk about the show. Besides, he's definitely busy, otherwise his usual image dumps are thursday to friday.

I don't see how Yusaku is going to get as mad as he is shown in the opening.

Maybe once Darkfluid and Ai's Ultimate Cyberse clash.

>People are here to watch the show.
Scroll up and tell me what you see more of: people talking about VRAINS, or people talking about any other part of the franchise.

>talk about the show
>except when the show is getting bad reviews so it goes from a vrainlet thread to vrainlet discussing the bad parts about every other season, most specific, arc v

Can confirm. I am here to discuss the franchise in general, and I don't really care what happens in Vrains.

We already filled 4 threads since wednesday with vrains discussion. There's only so much you can talk about vrains when we are in the first wpisode of a 3 episodes duel.

People who like Vrains also like YGO in general and want to talk about that too if the topic turns to it, whoda thought.

He's going to watch Arc-V and realize that reports of the rocket's importance were greatly exaggerated

This.

It's always been a thread that talks about the anime as a whole, with /dng/ being the card game's community with like passing interest in the show, and usually just for waifus and husbandos

Probably just for dramatic effect. Shame because I want to see him stand in the rain too.

Too bad the best past of the opening is the only one that didn't turn out to happpen.

>4
You're gonna count the two that died under 200 posts?
>There's only so much you can talk about vrains when we are in the first wpisode of a 3 episodes duel.
It's the damn finale.

>finale
I think it is only natural that the thread is turning into a broad ygo anime general rather than a vrains general since it is ending soon and there's no more stuff to speculate about ahead this duel. Later on we will transition into a YGO7 general and when it is ending the thread will become ygo general again and so on.

That rain shot and the part when he's not wearing his jacket while his tie flies dramatically in the wind are my favourites. I should've known it was too good to be real, though I'm glad it was shown at all.

I wish imhe had actually been good a la Borrel Dragon.
How did VRAINS manage to have both the Protagonist's ace and the Rival's ace great cards in the actual game?

They realised something as slow as Odd-Eyes and something as boring as Doom Armageddon didn't sell.

Firewall was not just good it was straight broken.

I think you mean too good.

If he was "too good" he wouldn't be banned right now.

Since it is Yoshida who is doing this end we are probbably getting something like pic related as the end, right?

Attached: Yusaku end season 3.jpg (1000x1501, 124K)

Since everyone has been moving on from their past, it would be appropiate for Ai to do so as well. Otherwise it would be pretty sad for him to be the only one to die.

I would like actual Yugioh threads instead of VRAINS threads. Vrains is boring.

I certainly hope so. Pls Yoshida I just want them to be happy.

Are you a total newfag? Go make a nostalgia thread for that, faggot.

No one likes your shitty show

I do
