I'm pretty sure the competitive scene could give less of a crap about Yusei, Yugi or Jaden returning to the anime though, maybe not every single competitive player but a good chunk of them wouldn't care.
Exactly. When the show already combines all 4 styles of summoning (Have yet to see Ritual Summoning, though), you can just as well put the protags in, for nostalgic pandering.
I was thinking the same thing. All Yugioh series took place in the original world. You can see the progression of the technology and summoning methods. If Zarc wanted to reunite his pieces he couldn't have the most powerful forces from the previous time line interfering. They weren't only the strongest/main characters, they were the ones with the most game changing magics. The Millennium items, Gentle Darkness, Crimson Dragon, Zexal. There's no way that he would be able to beat those powers if they came together.
Yugi=card games in hell (shadow realm) Judai=card games at school Yusei=card games on motor cycles Yuma= Card games from a system Yuya=Card games on dragons
because putting that much detail in to the hair if they showed all up in one episode even 5 minutes would take years to animate, even if a single hair is out of place you know that the fan boys would go psycho
@@YugiohEverything Oh People... this is REALLY OBVIOUS. C'mon people, seriously? This isnt even a Question. Yuri is literally using EVIL PLANTS! What do you think a Genocider like Zarc is, looking at Yuri and the other 3? 25% Evil??? That sounds more than wrong, doesnt it?? The obvious truth is, Reira fused the biggest heroes in history with Zarcs 4 Parts, but misunderstood Jaden and possibly also Yugi. Yugi was influenced by Atem A LOT, so i think that kinda was missing, but more importantly: Jaden was a Hero too, yes, BUT he became a Hero by fusing with multiple other evil entities so they could not harm anyone ever again!! Even if we dont go philosphical and say "Yugi was famous for and used to be a VESSEL, so that's why none other than Yuya Sakaki was the unstable member and the one who causes Zarc to return, becoming a Vessel for all the others (Yuri, Yugo and Yayayayu)" it's still obvious. Means: The Protagonists are not gone, they are ON SCREEN ALL THE TIME!!
I believe Zarc decided not to revive the main protagonists from the previous series because not only does he know that defeating them isn't certain but sending 4 avatars (Yu-boys) to take their place, i.e. Yuya instead of Yugi, Yuri instead of Judai, Yugo instead of Yusei and Yuto instead of Yuma, highly-guarantees his reinstatement back into the world without the interference of anyone who he knows is strong enough to prevent that, except for Ray but she hasn't been revived yet
***** Are not english dubbed. LOL. Japanese write them like that. How to think are english and originally with Yu. OMG. Watch in japanese opening, they write like that. Before duels same.First time I said, wtf, Hugo, but no,this is romanized write of the name. Only Yu is Yuya.
Yugi has the heart of the cards to draw exactly what he needs in any situation, and is the best strategist out of all 4 protags by far. Yuma can literally manifest whatever cards he needs through Zexal and shining draw even if it's not in his deck. Those two, at least, would easily win. Their plot powers are too strong.
There should have been more past characters in Arc-V including some classic Yugioh Protagonists. Here in my opinion who should've been in Arc-V. 1. Seto Kiaba (because of a certain theory) 2. Joey Wheeler (because I want to see his weird looking chin again) 3. Reginald Kastle (because Kaito wasn't enough) 4. Syrus or Chazz (because they only chose only 2 GX characters) 5. Yusei Fudo (because of a certain card!)
The simplest answer is that it would take away attention from Arc-V's protagonist Yuya by having previous show's protagonists playing an active role in the show.
Yugi, Jaden, Yusai, and Yuma could have been manifested as fragments of Z-ARC in order to attempt to prevent Z-ARC from being reborn. Can you picture Z-ARC dueling Pharaoh Atem, Jaden/Yubel, Yusai, and Yuma within the minds of Yuya, Yugo, Yuto, and Yuri?
True but unfortunately that won’t happen. The only show they go back to is duel monsters. I think one day we will probably get a remake of the duel monsters anime.
to be honest i think that there will be a movie of all the protagonist coming together by a vortex but also the main villains so i believe if we were to ever see judai again it would be in a yugioh movie
Oh People... this is REALLY OBVIOUS. C'mon people, seriously? This isnt even a Question. Yuri is literally using EVIL PLANTS!

Yugioh dm- the oldest Yugioh gx- the darkest Yugioh 5ds- the only yugioh where the rival has more duels than the protagonist Yugioh zexal- the protagonist with the more loss Yugioh arc v- the protagonist to not duel the final boss Yugioh vrains- the newest
I don't know, DM was pretty dark with the whole Necrofear baby thing, Dark Sanctuary, Marik's backstory (Japanese, not the filthy dub), and Zorc's Dragon dick.
actually dm was the darkest cos if u lost the duel ur legs'll get chopped off, u'd fall out the window, etc and there's a serial killer who killed 10 boy scouts and cut them into unusaul shapes with a chainsaw, there was a game where there's astack of money and uuse a knife to get as much money as you can and if u stb ur hand u lose, a man gets set on fire, yami marik skinning his dad's back till he dies etc
the reason and this is somewhat confirmed because one of the creators of arc-v sort of confirmed it is that the 4 dimensions are dimensions where the protagonists of each never existed and the events that transpired never happened. this is now from what i can tell a result of the original dimensions splitting into 4 new ones.
@@shawnlord3419 So basically it's just a cop-out. While Yuya only had Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon going for him, OG's had these: *Yugi* - Chaos Soldier, Buster Blader, Magician of Black Chaos, Dark Magician Girl, Arcana Knight Joker, Osiris, Obelisk, Ra, and Horakhty. *Judai* - Flame Wingman and Shining Flare Wingman, Absolute Zero, Gaia, Acid, Elixirir, Sunriser, Rainbow Neos, and Stratos. *Yusei* - Junk Warrior, Nitro Warrior, Turbo Warrior, Junk Archer, Junk Destroyer, Formula Synchron, Stardust Dragon, Shooting Star Dragon, Shooting Star Savior Dragon, and Shooting Quasar Dragon. *Yuma* - No. 39 Aspiring Emperor - Hope, Hope Ray V and Victory, Beyond the Hope, Hope Lightning, Gagaga Cowboy, and Future Hope.
Anayos while by the end of arc v he had all the dimsanol dragons and there evolved froms, techniquely z-arc as while and rainbow magion and a couple of paladin extra monsters and the other fused forms of the dimsonal dragons so he still had a lot going for him as while
Good question honestly! I'm not sure if there is a solid reason, but maybe they couldn't think of a reason as to why Yusei would have evil in his heart
Jorge Montoya If I think of a good enough reason then I definitely will! I don't make these theory videos too often, only when I can establish enough evidence! But I'll def look into it!
sorry i don't know when yuma went bad i only watched zexal for galaxy eyes lol, but id say yugi went bad because (untill yugi changed him) atem was quite a dark spirit and jaden had a dark side(the supreme king) where as yusei did not have any dark influence except maybe his rough life and the tragedies he went through as a child which couldve both been helped by his close relationships with his friends (as shown in beginning of bonds beyond time)
So the way I saw it, was just that things were split up at random almost. A big thing to note is that The City never had the momentum malfunction. I don't think it's that Yusei doesn't exist in The City, but without that explosion, he would have never been orphaned, he would have never met Martha, Jack, and Crow, and he would have never become a Duelist (since he most likely would've followed his passion, science and machinery, just like his father). So it's not that these characters don't exist, just that the specific coincidences that lead to their rise never happened.
Thats what I thought as well. Yuma would most likely be carded without Astral, Yugi is simply too old / not revelant anymore and lives in Standard or Fusion. But I can't figure out where Judai would be.
+Kisetokage Jaden is a Fusion user so he'd obviously be a Fusionite, where as Yugi would most likely live in Standard since there are not only Fusion but also Xyz monster that'll work well with his Dark Magician.
William Tibbits I know but since Standart didnt have Fusion, Synchro and Xyz originally, I guessed Yugi could live in both. I'm aware that Jaden would be in Fusion, but that also means he would be in Academia, because Asuka was there as well and nobody knows what the Academy is doing. However I doubt that Jaden would card people, but he isn't with the Resistance either. So he's just kinda not around. Maybe he's in Venice.
I still believe that the reason is because the other main characters would steal Yuya's spotlight and that's the reason that they gave us Asuka, Edo, Jack, Crow and Kaito just as fan service since they couldn't give us the main characters. But if Zarc manages to revive and no one can stop him i do hope that the main characters pop out of nowhere. And with your theory i guess it would make sense because it was Judai, Yusei and Yuma who united the other characters and with out them they couldn't meet or become friends.
But the counterparts are actually relevant to the plot and were Arc V chracters. They wouldn'T just give that much glory to an old MC in a new show(for good reason).
When you say Yugi, do you mean Atem? Because Yugi himself is actually pretty terrible. The most interesting character story wise is Yusei because he is more than just a child.
Bond beyond time 2 goddammit,there should be protagonists vs zarc,last series of arc v so dissapointing,it would have been more epic if there had been yuya,yuto,yugo and yuri face zarc instead just sealing him
This theory does make a lot of sense, and I agree with it. But for the people who have brains that can't comprehend this, you could just say the first 4 or 5 ( depending if Atem and Yugi count as one protagonist or two.) met Yuma before somehow and when the xyz dimension was attacked the protagonists other that Yuma, went there to help and got carded. ( but I doubt anyone would have the skills or even guts to card them)
well they might againest say jaden and yuma, since without the numbers yuma isnt as good (although hes still amazing after after all the experience he got from helping astral), and jaden just isn't known quite so widely as a great duelist like yusei and yugi, this is shown in gx where the only people who truly acknowledge his skill are those who know or have dueled him, where as yusei and yugi are well known to be insanely (to the point of being ridiculous) good duelists.
true...but Jaden also was never put on the same fame platforms as Yugi or Yusei either...everyone knew who they were because they were in broadcasted worldwide championships and whatnot...jaden was stuck in duel academy but his skill is definitely up there with them...id even say he's 2nd best with yusei as #1 in pure skill....yugi(atem) was a duel god for sure but got lucky way too much and cheated a lot too whether or not ppl like to admit it...hell jaden beat a guy who pretty much killed the entire world
I saw a different theory: When the world split into 4, Ray merged each of Z-arc’s counterparts with one of the protagonists First: Z-arc is a fully evil being, but only Joeri showed evil traits. It’s unlikely Z-arc was 75% good and 25% bad. Second: look at each of the characters closely: Yuya and Yugi: they both have multi coloured spikey hair split into 2 layers front and back. They both wear their school uniforms as a cape and carry some sort of pendant of power. When Yugi losr control to and almost killed Kaiba, he feared to duel again, not trusting himself. A nearly identical reaction to Yuya. When both characters find that their dueling might cause suffering for others. They halt, immediately. They both runs Magician decks mixed with dragons and strange creaturez. Yuto and Yuma: While Yuto may be more ruthless then Yuma’s cheery personality, we can see before the Acadamia invasion Yuto also had a friendly and cheerful personality, but it all changed with the kidnapping of a loved one and the calamity of war. Both share determination to try and achieve their goals no matter the cost or amount of attempts, the only difference being that Yuto is more successful in achieving his goals. Both run warrior and spellcaster based decks with warrior Xyz monsters. Yugo and Yusei: They both have nearly identical origin stories: growing up in poverty, however through savings and studies managed to build their own d-wheel, and escaped the poverty. Both show very little care for the Tops, and for security authority. Both run decks full of machine monsters that allow the user to synchro summon nearly any level of synchro monsters. Yuri and Jaden: Those who watched GX might think this one is insane, until they realize: By the end of Gx Jaden is revealed to be a reincarnation of the darkness of the Supreme King, Jaden is the Supreme King, and when the Supreme King took over Jaden committed atrocities. Furthermore, he fused the souls of himself and Yubel, meaning Jaden, Yubel, and the Supreme King are all the same person. And when Z-arc was added to the mix, it fully corrupted him. Yuri doesn’t duel cause he’s ordered to, he duels for fun, just like Jaden. He mocks his enemies while establishing a clear dominance, and plays in a way to slowly strip away and use his opponents cards to his advantage, just like the Supreme King. He finds great pleasure in malicious and sadistic plans and actions to psychologically torment his enemies: just like Yubel. Both Yuri and Yubel run dark plant based decks. And, the one card that Yuri, Jaden, the Supreme King, and Yubel have in common: Super Polymerization. A magical special card created by the Supreme King by sacrificing people through negative emotions, a one of a kind card.
I'm sorry but with the amount of power imbued into yugi I just can't see anyone else beating the king of games (who was said to create the game in the first place). He had all 3 god cards and exodia. I'm sorry but it's a win
otaku dx yeah,god card are shit now, yesterday i was able to summon 3 8 stars synchro monster in one turn that can only be defeated by banishing,obviously i won the duel in 2 turns
TheLionTurtle You know when you think about it, Auska was the one the who had a part to play in making Yuri feel like an outcast and turning him evil which subsequently led to a number of things that helped further Zarc's revival. What do you know, she was important after all... Kind of... Poor Auska.😔
to me duel monsters is one of the worst ever first series of an anime. duelist kingdom sucked the virtual wold waking the dragon weren't good either. series 5 was way to jumbled. battle city was the best personally yugioh abridged makes the unbearable parts bearable.
anakin smith The abridges series is great xD But yeah, I think the people that say "Yugioh went to sh*t after DM" just let nostalgia play too much of a factor.. Also they probably never gave the shows after a chance, its one of my biggest pet peeves when people say that honestly haha
1:39Z-Arc Boys and Ray Akaba Girls. Standard/Pendulum: Yugi Muto as Yuya Sakaki and Tea Gardner as Zuzu Boyle. Fusion: Jaden Yuki as Yuri and Blair Flannigen as Celina. Synchro: Yusei Fudo as Yugo and Akiza Izinski as Rin. Xyz: Yuto as Yuma Tsukumo and Lulu Obsidian as Tori Meadows.
Megabuster Man Yeah, the writers kind of dropped the ball with GX. Although apparently, 5ds isn't too bad, if you can look past the whole "card games on motorcycles" bit.
I hope Zarc gives us some exposition on that when he revives. And since Ray is gonna come back soon, she will probably do so aswell. I'm sure she knows something Leo doesn't.
5:29 Z-ARC Boys and Ray Akaba Girls Yugi Muto as Yuya Sakaki & Tea Gardner as Zuzu Boyle Yuri as Jaden Yuki & Celina as Blair Flanagan Yugo as Yusei Fudo & Rin as Akiza Isinski Yuto as Yuma Tsukumo & Tori Meadows as Lulu Obsidian
I think the wish probably was a lot more vague. Rather than choosing exactly who existed and didn't, he just wanted there to be nobody who could stand in his way. This makes sense, because at the end, the one who stopped Z-Arc was Yuya, Z-Arc himself.
See I thought they were all just busy in their own lives I mean like here Yugi:possibly going through school Judai:traveling the world to get better at dueling Yusei:running his dad's company Yuma:basically the end of zexal I could be wrong but I also agree with that
I think to prove that 4 protags were in the same timeline and the summoning method complex can take a history book. We could say like this: years after the time of 5Ds (when Yusei was already dead),ppl discovered XYZ,and probably Astral and Barian world. Then we have the time of Zexal when ppl forsook all Fusion and Synchro summon to pursuit XYZ (while a few ppl still fusion during the time of 5Ds). U see in the end of Zexal Yuma and his friends were going to attack "sth strange" that was invading Astral,Barian and the Earth. It could be that Yuma won,died of old age and over time Barian and Astral world became irrelevant. Or it could be that a great war broke out that destroyed Astral and Barian,but the Earth managed to survive and win,some duelists died in battle while some died of old age. Maybe due to the aftermath of the war that ppl realized they needed more than XYZ,or they just rediscovered Fusion and Synchro. Anyways,we have a renaissance on Fusion and Synchro and finally 3 summoning methods coexist equally (although Ritual wasn't recovered much XD). So years (maybe hundreds of) after Yuma's death and the renaissance,we have a new star named Zarc who could use all 3 summoning methods then the story just goes like what Yugioh Everything said.
I think that synchro monsters did not appear in zexal because of the ener-d. Yusei became a scientist at the end of 5ds and found a way to stabilize the energy production of Synchro monsters. If his theory wasn't a permanent fix and/or his team needed more time to get the stabilization right and create a permanent fix, the use of synchros would have been banned to prevent a zero reverse. If zexal takes place in the main timeline, then it would explain the lack of synchros. By the time zarc rolled around we know that synchro monsters were a thing again. So thus they were unbanned due to their stabilization finally being completed.
There is another reason the previous protagonists weren't there. They could be living a different life than in their shows. The evidence I have is the fact that the syncro dimension was changed drastically. If the main characters of earlier generations didn't exist than why did Zark not split Domino City. It got split when the reactor exploded, but that didn't happen in the syncro dimension. If the split never happened then Yusei's dad would be alive and was able to raise Yusei himself. Meaning Yusei would have a different upbringing. Jaden had no friends due to Yubel injuring those that hurt Jaden. After separating Jaden from the Yubel Jaden's parents would be very protective of him. If Leo took over all connected to dueling in the fusion dimension Jaden's parents would protect him by not letting him near a deck. Yuma is the worst out of his school. He would have been killed by a fallen building when the XYZ dimension was destroyed. As for Yugi, he was a timid boy until the spirit of Atem came along. What if Zark made it so that they won't meet?
Red Hood Indeed! Then again, this is just my theory, and who knows if the writers have actually given it this much thought! I'd like to think so though
Fun Fact: Every protagonist we have seen so far have ace monsters that share the same Attack points Yugi Muto Dark Magician 2500/2100 Normal Jaden Yuki Elemental Hero Neos 2500/2000 Normal Yusei Fudo Stardust Dragon 2500/2000 Synchro Yuma Tsukumo Number 39: Utopia 2500/2000 Xyz Yuya Sakaki Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon 2500/2000 Pendulum
So he can prevent people from being reborn? You'd think things like the Egyptian gods would be pretty pissed that all these characters that were pivotal in the salvation of the world would be gone from any record of existing. I'm pretty sure you can't just go and erase things like the Pharaoh, his best friend as well, and not expect the gods to basically step in and just magic up some pain for the guy.
While I don't have a source to cite for this, I believe the writers have stated that the legacy characters are alternate universe versions, they aren't related to the plots of the previous shows, they're exclusively fanservice because it's an anniversary show, and the main characters just don't exist in those alternate universes. Also, I think you're overthinking what Yusho said, I think it's more likely that him and everyone else across the dimensions are totally real, but their memories surrounded Zarc and Ray's fragments were altered to make them seem more natural.
Considering that the previous 4 protagonists all have some kind of power or magic involved, it’s possible that it protected them from being messed with.
First off, it technically IS confirmed that the protagonists still exist because Jack's duelrunner appears in arc V and it was built by Yusei. The reason they don't appear is because whatever disaster happened in the previous series didn't happen in the alternate dimensions. The zero reverse incident didn't happen in this timeline so Yusei was born in the tops probably became a scientist and built Jack's duel runner. Whatever happened in Zexal (didn't watch that one) probably didn't happen either, so Yuma never met Astral stayed a crappy duelist and most likely got carded in the xyz invasion. No explanation for what happened to Judai tho he probably didn't join duel academy since their policy isn't "have fun" in this timeline. Not sure what timeline Yugi is in but he probably never solved the puzzle. Don't know why we never saw Kaiba tho a multi-millionare surrounded by giant blue dragons is kind of hard to miss.
You, sir, have some crazy timing. I just started watching it about 6 minutes ago. I haven't made a decision yet, but I can already tell that it's leagues better than zexal.
Dylan Burgdorf That is awesome!! I hope you really do enjoy it! I liked it more than Zexal, but the main complaints with Arc-V are towards the middle-end so I hope you like it all the way through!
So far it's pretty good. I doubt that it will replace Battle City as my number one, but I love the fact that the duelists who aren't in some kind of shadow game finally have a reason to act like they've been been hit physically when they take damage. My only gripes are that the theme songs are meh, I personally prefer the mechanical duel disks over the laser ones, and Crunchyroll only has 60 episodes. 8/10 with a possibility of a better score in the future.
Dylan Burgdorf I watched all of zexal, and it was terrible, this one is good for itself but its way too much plot and not enough dueling for me, more like 5ds in the story set up, but a lot of pointless time filling goes on
I came up with a filler series of the four (Yugi, Jaden, Yusei, and Yuma) getting their souls seperated from their bodies. Their souls would then be placed into an amulet which a new character would wear and have the four of them with him. (like Atem for Yugi) The characters goal would be to search for the bodies of the four and help them get their lives back. I thought it would be a good way to have the main characters meet and interact with each other better. But it is just a idea.
Wow you've given me so much nostalgia. I remember watching Yugioh so much as a kid. Thank you for this. I appreciate you bringing back my love for Yugioh.
Nice theory as always. I have a timeline theory, but it does go against your theory of the five shows, first four and Arc-V's normal dimension, being on a unified timeline. Now, I'll admit that the theory is a bit of a stretch, considering there isn't a lot of hard evidence. The theory is that the first three shows, DM GX and 5D's, are all on the same timeline. However, Z-One and the Ark Cradle event caused the timeline to be split into three parts. I'll refer to these parts as follows: Original Timeline = Z-One never appeared in 5D's and the timeline ends with Z-One and the others going to the past. Yusei Timeline = Yusei wins the duel against Z-One Z-One Timeline = Z-One wins the duel against Yusei Now, that third timeline is probably the hardest to convince people that it exists since it involves a main character dying. However, this is a case where the villain winning does not mean the end of the world. Examples: Marik wanted to gain the power of the pharaoh, but his psycho side being in control would probably lead to the death of many people. Bakura and Dartz flat out were going to destroy the world. Yubel uniting all the dimensions had high potential of backfiring, but fortunately it didn't. The point is is that Z-One was only trying to get rid of Moment, not destroy the world. He wanted peace and happiness in his time, so he had to go the past. Back to the timeline theory, quite the segue I know. We established the first three shows take place on a Unified Timeline, then the Ark Cradle Event splits the timeline into three separate ones. Zexal's placement is not as hard to figure out as it may seem. The answer is in the lack of Synchros. Zexal takes place on the Yusei Timeline because the results of hearing what Synchro and Moment does in the future leads to the destruction of Moment before it can get out of hand, but in a more contained way than Z-One's idea of destroying it. What does Moment have to do with this? Well, Moment is what gives Synchros their "power", and destroying it caused the Synchros' "Power" to disappear making them useless. To make sure that Dueling would continue to evolve, XYZ monsters were introduced to see that would happen. Arc-V's placement may be the most difficult to reason out, and that is because of the returning characters as well as the four dimensions. However, your idea that Zarc revived those particular characters means the other four shows must have taken place before it, right? Which would mean that it takes place after Zexal on the Yusei Timeline, correct? Well, I believe that the show takes place on the Original Timeline. Why? Because all different Summoning methods are in this show. If it took place after Zexal, Synchros would not exist. Of course, Zexal taking place on one timeline and Arc-V taking place on another doesn't explain how Kaito returns in Arc-V. This is where the Multiple Worlds theory takes place. The theory is that for every decision that is made, another reality is created where a different decision was made. So, the Kaito and other returning characters we see in Arc-V are not the same as their original counterparts. Now, to explain Arc-V's placement, the answer is Z-Arc and Ray. Ray is Leo Akaba's daughter, and his wish to bring her back was what sent him off the deep end. As a result of reuniting her, and all of the dimensions, however, caused Z-Arc to return as well. After his defeat, and the subsequent re-splitting of him and Ray into the Yu Boys and the Bracelet Girls, Leo believes this to be the best possible solution. However, Z-Arc wasn't done as the damage he caused across all the dimensions were now converged in one. This leads to the destruction of many homes, and many lives are lost, including the Bracelet Girls. As Leo tries desperately to revive his daughter, again, a familiar energy is felt around the world. Z-Arc's final plan was to destroy the existence of all reality, not just humanity. He let people unknowingly create Moment Chambers around the world, and eventually they all were set off once he saw fit. How is Z-Arc still around? He is actually a spirit, like Atem and Yami Bakura. He houses himself in a prolific scientist and manipulates him into believing that Moment is the best solution to the problems of the world, and the other scientists trusted him. After the subsequent destruction of the world, and Leo's desperation to see his daughter, and everyone else at that point, caused him to become Z-One. Why did he choose that name? Z-One is just like Z-Arc in that it is a Z followed by a dash and then a three letter word so that he can remember who did this. The One represents the fact that he was the last person alive. Now, why did he go to the 5D's era instead of to when Z-Arc was first around? Because he wanted to erase the root of the problem, Moment. Z-Arc used all of the negative emotions in the world to cause Zero Reverse to happen and the subsequent end of the world. So, Leo decided the easiest way to do that was to destroy Moment before Z-Arc ever existed. END OF THEORY I will say that the last three or four paragraphs are pure speculation since we don't know how Arc-V is going to end. Also, wanted to throw this out there, the Z-One timeline I outlined earlier is where I believe the Sixth Show to take place. The Ark Cradle has caused the destruction of Neo Domino City and the people are trying to get back on their feet. (The show takes place far enough along that people remember it as a great tragedy, and that they are almost back to what it was like before then.) This allows us to see people duel for anything, food, money, etc. Also, since the characters will have a tendency to sacrifice to gain, this would allow Ritual Monsters to be the Fancy Summoning Method of the Show. It would also allow us to see something like how when a Dark Signer would Summon their Earthbound, innocent people were offered up. The same could happen when bad guys Ritual Summon. What do you think of the Timeline theory, and of the possible Sixth Series idea? I know there's a lot of reaching in the Timeline Theory, but then again when isn't there when it comes to making a theory?
I definitely like it! Love reading timeline possibilities like this, I slightly disagree, but the concept we agree on. There was something that happened that split the line after GX to 5Ds and Zexal. I would love to see the 6th series be on that Z-One timeline you mentioned!
To some extent I fully understand why that is the case and it is completely idealistic why some people wanted yugi judai yusei and Yuma to appear but that is why I agree.
Or perhaps the 4 protagonists of the previous series also exist in Arc -V, the fact is that in the series the conditions are not created to make them as they have become in their respective series, probably in those dimensions they are simple ordinary people
When yuya defeats Dennis in the xyz dimension the dad says he won the duel tournament on top of the heart building and I was thinking that he might be yuma
Another Theory says that Rey made the 4 Yu boys by combining the quarters of Zarc with the protags Yuya=Zarc+Yugi and Atem (literally can Create Cards that didn't exist before and we see Yuya do that alot) Yugo=Zarc+Yusei (have the same backstory atleast 95% is same like some scenes from both can be put side by side) Yuto=Zarc+Yuma and somewhat Astral (literally was a Nice boy like Yuma to 80% and 20% normal human only reason he seemed cold was because of the War) Yuri=Zarc+Jaden, Yubel and the Supreme King (where Rey somewhat miscalculated since, like Jaden has fun dueling, loke Yubel is Sadistic and like the Supreme King is arrogant and has the Skill to back up that Arrogance and like the SK he doesn't take his Enemies seriously) With this Theory that means Yuya possesses Yugi, Atem, Jaden, Supreme King, Yubel, Yusei, Yuma, Yuto, Yugo, Yuri and Zarc too (and somewhat Astral too) that would make him literally the most Powerful Duelist ever
The Yu boys are the Replacement for each In fact, Zarc may have been split into 4 soul peices and placed in to the dimensions as a new version of each Yuya is our Yugi I'd say He's in the Standard Dimension for one thing and has a Distinct "Pendent" Item The Millennium Puzzle is to Yugi As the Pendulum Pendent is to Yuya
Kamen Rider Nexus i didn’t watch Arc V, but the D Wheel Jack uses mainly both in 5D’s and in Arc V is not Yusei’s original D Wheel, Jack said he broke it and replaced it with his current one
Here is my big theory about Yugioh Arc V all 6 of the yugioh series are connected to the five dimensions Standard/ Pendulum is part of Yugioh Duel Monsters where Paradise City has been built over Domino City and Yuya has replaced Yugi / Atem. Fushion Syncro and XYZs are part of a different timelines of Gx 5ds and Zexal , and Jaden Yusei and Yuma have been replaced by Yuri Yugo and Yuto. The Original dimension is where V Rains takes place and Yusaku has not been born yet.
xXKaiserKnightAnimationsXx fuck all of them and make the duelist of the roses cannon and bring the rose duelist in this, since I stopped watching after 5D and the rest of the story seems like nonsense to me lol.
Not bad,however a massive hole at the endbof the theory is that zarcs one wish,the one thing that turned him into a monster is that he wanted to fight the strongest of the strong and defeat them. So he had a reason to bring them back.
I would‘ve love it if the protagonists met and have a char or something and then everyone goes to a diferent dimention and made like a Mission to stop war, and they would reunite and stop Zarc together
Lets de-prove that theory with this example : Kite should be good. Kite lost his memories? It has to be that, otherwise, its a different kite. YUMA has Astral, and guess what Astral has, thats right, you guessed it, the NUMERON CODE, which means he can play god, theres no way Zarc is ever touching him, but counter statement, at the end of *ZeXal*, they all had to stop a new (unshown) villan, and that villan could've been Zarc, and if all these universes are really together, then he probably beat them, yada yada....
Hmm , that would actually be interesting if Zarc was the villain in Astral world! Never considered that, but keep in mind, if this is 100 years after Zexal, Yuma would be passed away, along with the rest of the Zexal cast. So the numeron code might not be in play anymore. But hey, you make a good point, and it is just a theory! There are definitely some holes in it
But isnt astral immortal so he would have the numeron code anyways and even if he wasnt immortal...the numeron code will still be with astral world and barian would be on their side and they could wreck him... BUT ANYWAYS has anyone thought that they might just exist in different dimensions? Like the other 4 protagonists are in a different dimension..As in like remember in GX there are 12 dimensions.....say the one in ARC-V is one of those dimensions and after it split and became 4 there were just another extra 3. Lets say astral is still alive cause hes immortal ...he probably wouldnt get involved unless the other dimensions REALLY needed help so he'd leave the job to the protagonists of ARC-V and only get involved if they needed it...so yeah. The wiki even says that the alexis rhodes in ARC-V is an alternate universe version of the one in GX...that means that that the other characters in the series are also alternate universe versions of the characters from the previous series..althought technically i think it would be alternate dimensions cause arent dimensions bigger than universes?.......Anyways yeah. I'd rather think of it this way as opposed to all the previous protagonists were just erased...and this is hopefully how it is despite the ending of the series.
Guys in 5ds wasn't it about idk 30-40 years after gx? It's pretty simple why the protagonist aren't in here . Their dead they can't live forever. Now zexal I can see people questioning why isn't Yuma there?? But with yugi,judai, yusei their not alive anymore
Yugi Muto is Yuya Sakaki Jaden Yuki is Yuri Yusei Fudo is Yugo Yuma Tsukumo is Yuto Tea Gardner is Zuzu Boyle 1/2 Alexis Rhodes is Celina Akiza Izinski is Rin-Rin Tori Medows is Lulu Obsidian
the most badass ending i can think of for arc-v would be the worlds combining leading to the original 4 coming back from being sealed by some force/ revive and what not and supporting yuya into coming back or better yet defecting zarc themselves
This is old but, maybe someone will see it, I believe that the old protagonists are in arc v and just don’t show up, I mean if z arc was messing up stuff in the go dimension, why didn’t they team up to stop them? They don’t because they would out shadow Yuya it’s his story, they had their turn, (no pun intended). They are alive, but they don’t show up
Forgive me if I’m wrong but, In Zexal didn’t astral have control over the numeron code which allowed him seemingly godly power which even allowed him to bring back the Barian leaders, shouldn’t he have the ability to stop Zarc as well?
Also as for the zarc resurrection theory it's likely that would have happened naturally if not for Ray's interference. From we saw of the bracelets, their primary function seems to be as a fail-safe preventing the Yu boys from meeting. If one of them enters the same area as another (providing one of the bracelet girls are near one of them) then the Yu boy who was originally there gets transported to another location. The fact that this system is the one used to stop Zarc's resurrection means that the way Zarc revives wouldn't be stopped by dueling. After all the way Zarc revives is by having all Yu boys in one place (and them dueling each other), so the theory that Zarc chose not to revive the four protagonist because they can stop his ressurrections doesn't hold a lot of weight. Also as Zarc aimed to be the strongest duelist by beating all others, preventing some of the strongest duelists from dueling doesn't make a lot of sense either. Finally, as I explained in the comment below at least Yusei is confirmed to exist in his dimension.
The answer is so simple: Yusei can't meet Yugi. Or Yuma, or Yuya. There was a 100-year time gap in between 5Ds and Duel Monsters, and them meeting would implode the world and destroy everything. Also, timelines imploding would cause the dimensions imploding, causing the revival of both Zarc and Ray. At the same time. Because mass cannot intersect mass, the original dimension would be GIGANTIC. And four identical earths? Yeah no. The four earths in the intro would not be able to exist. Even if they did exist within space, are the four dimensions on the same earths or on different earths? If they were on the same earth, how are they shown as four identical earths? Wouldn't the dimensions intersect, creating the United World in the first place? Arc-V never split, it just reset. All the dimensions are one, otherwise how would they be able to travel between them?
Yeah, you're right. However, "Trudge" could, in fact, be the son/grandson of Yugi's former classmate (who only appeared in Season 0, I might add) and he is in fact Ushio the 3rd! Who looks just like his grandfather.
My theory (more of a prediction really) is that if and when the Arc Area Project is finished, the 4 dimensions become the united world again, but each dimension will have a period in it's history when it is most like one of the four dimension, with one of the avatars of Zara becoming the hero of this era (Standard in the DM era, Fusion in the GX era, Synchro in the 5Ds era, and Xyz in the Zexal era). Essentially, Leo Akaba unites the four dimensions and creates the main Yu-Gi-Oh timeline. It's a baseless crackpot theory with holes in it like Yuto the badass becoming Yuma the fuck-up (didn't enjoy Zexal all that much if you couldn't tell), but it kind of makes sense.
Thanks. Though based on how the show is headed, with Yugo and Yuri fusing and all, I'm not sure that their going to go down that path. One can hope though
I'm (partly) with you on that theory. ARC-V's story is far better structured and more complex than those of the older animes, so they must be hiding something from us. ARC-V seems more thought out, more precisely planned, while the older ones seem to have lots of improvisation. Also, I have a strange feeling that for some unexpected reason, Leo fails to revive Ray, or it just won't escalate as he planned. Zarc's revival on its own has a bigger probability. Just a thought.
The real reason is because MCs from the previous series would steal the show from current MC. Maybe not so much Judai and Yuma, but if Yugi or Yusei shows up, everyone is going to be more interested in them than Yuya. The audience's focus will shift away from the intended main protagonist to whoever else the audience likes best, which would ruin the intended story. Good writers know this and will avoid writing in old main characters other than giving them a few seconds of cameo.
Well then, the writers f'ed up, if they wanted to show us a protagonist who becomes an antagonist. IDK, if I was in charge, I would make Zarc too powerful for Ray to handle, and then have the 4 previous protagonists show up, and defeat him in a swift fashion (like how Atem defeated Diva in DSoD).
Would have been cool if they maybe shown yusei, Yuki and Yugi watching the yuya or crow dueling to save the world or just showing Yuki and Yugi just chilling and yusei ridding his love (bike)
I breathe in this theory!!! It makes perfect sense. My previous theory before the entire Zarc/Ray thing was revealed is that Akaba Leo is actually Kaiba Seto, but now that Ray and Zarc are introduced, I know better now. Now I was fiddling with this theory as well so I agree with you. But it would be nice to get explanation about why none of the original YGO series side chara such as Jounouchi/Joey or Anzu/Tea or even Bakura not mentioned....
Since the original timeline was destroyed. The world was rewritten as certain things was wiped out so no strong person could appear whether if it’s for a good or bad reason. The four Zarc beings were embedded then with the righteousness of the four heroes. Each of the Zarc beings possess goodness in them as they show characteristics from the four original protagonist.
Thomas Newton he was a person but his insanity make him fuse whit his four dragons to obtain a "god-like power" in his words since he become so powerfull than no one was able to satisfie him/ be a good rival in a duel againts him, in that moment he fuse whit the dragons him lose his humanity (both spiritual and terranal)
I was literally thinking that too. If any of the four previous protagonists were around: Yugi, or more likely Jaden, would've made sure Duel Acadamy never went all 'Evil Dystopia'. And if that failed, Yuma isn't one to back down from a challenge, so, he could've done something to save Heartland City, with his friends (Astral and the Barians included.) Oh, and, Yusei and the other Signers all together? There's no way Z-Ark would've stood a chance against the five dragons. But most importantly, those guys are the glue of their friends, especially Yuma and Yusei. If they weren't around, then everything could be perfect for Z-Ark.
Excellent theory! although I disagree with one thing. Jack, Crow, and Kaito would fight back with or without the involvement of Yusei and Yuma. To merge dimensions, Leo needs to invade all dimensions first. Crow would obviously fight back to protect the kids. Jack may fight because of his title as King. Kaito, the one person in Zexal who never lose to Yuma, would go so far as destroying the world to protect his brother. Bringing these 3 back is like signing the death certificate for Leo, which ultimately leads to Zarc's failure. And if Zarc needs to bring someone back no matter what, there are still plenty of better choices to choose from. 5D's has Aki, who was literally a witch without Yusei's involvement. Sherry who only wanted to avenge her father, or even Divine who might team up with Leo for his own benefit. Zexal has Vector, well, I don't need to explain, do I? Number 96, or Mr. Heartland. Not only are these characters less likely to oppose Leo, in case they do fight back, they are also arguably weaker than Jack, Crow, and Kaito.
it simple they don't have enough hairspray for all the Previous Protagonists it would put them way over budget
Nora魂Vanguard XD lolp
:)
this comment made me laugh so much that i liked it 300 times
thanks :)
Nora魂Vanguard i applaud
Because they were afraid that any old protagonist could possibly shadow Yuya and decrease the new deck sales
I'm pretty sure the competitive scene could give less of a crap about Yusei, Yugi or Jaden returning to the anime though, maybe not every single competitive player but a good chunk of them wouldn't care.
Exactly. When the show already combines all 4 styles of summoning (Have yet to see Ritual Summoning, though), you can just as well put the protags in, for nostalgic pandering.
Putting the old MCs back would put them in a corner where their only options would be either" Piss off fans" or "Degrade Arc V".
Ufukcan Gencoglu There is no option there. *Degrade ARC-V*
MazingerDestroXtreme except jaiden
Remember when the show was just about kids summoning monsters to fight in a tournament

When you haven't seen yugioh since 5d's and don't understand ALOT of what's going on in this theory
Jaxter 5d's was my favorite and the opening omg it was beautiful
AllenPHD the final opening was my fav closely followed by gx final opening
tysonrss if arc v doesn't screw up the next episodes than it takes the 1st place for me followed by dm then 5ds
tysonrss 5ds was really close to the original. Thats probably why it was a bit more loved
CreepyPastaFollower yup
I was thinking the same thing. All Yugioh series took place in the original world. You can see the progression of the technology and summoning methods. If Zarc wanted to reunite his pieces he couldn't have the most powerful forces from the previous time line interfering. They weren't only the strongest/main characters, they were the ones with the most game changing magics. The Millennium items, Gentle Darkness, Crimson Dragon, Zexal. There's no way that he would be able to beat those powers if they came together.
Glad you liked it! And you are exactly right, those are the same thoughts I had when making this video
Yugi=card games in hell (shadow realm)
Judai=card games at school
Yusei=card games on motor cycles
Yuma= Card games from a system
Yuya=Card games on dragons
I think pick card more suitable for arc v because yuya runs around to collect action card
Precisely :)
because putting that much detail in to the hair if they showed all up in one episode even 5 minutes would take years to animate, even if a single hair is out of place you know that the fan boys would go psycho
HAHAHAHAH best explanation ever.
Yugioh Everything i think it would be expensive but ün the final duel maybe zarc can duel the previous protoganists

C'mon people, seriously?
This isnt even a Question.
Yuri is literally using EVIL PLANTS!
What do you think a Genocider like Zarc is, looking at Yuri and the other 3?
25% Evil???
That sounds more than wrong, doesnt it??
The obvious truth is, Reira fused the biggest heroes in history with Zarcs 4 Parts, but misunderstood Jaden and possibly
also Yugi.
Yugi was influenced by Atem A LOT, so i think that kinda was missing, but more importantly:
Jaden was a Hero too, yes, BUT he became a Hero by fusing with multiple other evil entities so
they could not harm anyone ever again!!
Even if we dont go philosphical and say "Yugi was famous for and used to be a VESSEL, so that's
why none other than Yuya Sakaki was the unstable member and the one who causes Zarc to return,
becoming a Vessel for all the others (Yuri, Yugo and Yayayayu)" it's still obvious.
Means: The Protagonists are not gone, they are ON SCREEN ALL THE TIME!!
I just want Yugioh GX Season 5.
I know its unlikely, but that's literally all I want.
GX was the best one, followed by 5Ds.
Fodimin Layton no the motorcycle Thing in 5 ds is retarded
MercuryAlchemy I agree, but the rest of 5Ds is great
CARD GAMES ON HOVERBOARDS Im not shitting u thats the next series
same thing ive been thinking
I believe Zarc decided not to revive the main protagonists from the previous series because not only does he know that defeating them isn't certain but sending 4 avatars (Yu-boys) to take their place, i.e. Yuya instead of Yugi, Yuri instead of Judai, Yugo instead of Yusei and Yuto instead of Yuma, highly-guarantees his reinstatement back into the world without the interference of anyone who he knows is strong enough to prevent that, except for Ray but she hasn't been revived yet
Could this be a possible theory? o.o
I can't send you my email because it's a personal one but I can send you my Skype contact?
Thats not true. Zarc could not control that. He is those 4 Yu boys that actually are not Yu like in subs except Yuya. Is Hugo, Uto and Joeri.
It may or may not be true, all of this is conjecture-based theory.
***** Are not english dubbed. LOL. Japanese write them like that. How to think are english and originally with Yu. OMG. Watch in japanese opening, they write like that. Before duels same.First time I said, wtf, Hugo, but no,this is romanized write of the name. Only Yu is Yuya.
Would be cool to see the previous 4 protagonists to face each Yu boy from their respective summoning methods, that to me would be very interesting
Brendan Connolly Synchro would stomp normal summoning. Jesus. It's broken and retarded.
holy damn...you mean Yugi against Yuya, Judai against Yuri, Yusei versus Yugo and Yuma versus Yuta?? THAT SOUNDS MIND-BLOWINGLY AWESOME
should be good for a movie, yugioh arc v movie - battle of the dimensions
Yugi has the heart of the cards to draw exactly what he needs in any situation, and is the best strategist out of all 4 protags by far. Yuma can literally manifest whatever cards he needs through Zexal and shining draw even if it's not in his deck. Those two, at least, would easily win. Their plot powers are too strong.
I would love to see that, it would be amazing
They would steal the spotlight from Yuya
***** I think he's alright. I hate Yuma though.
***** Big time
Chibi Prussia Tbh that wouldn't be so bad when you consider how Yuya and ARC-V ended.
Only ıf "wouldn't be so bad" means "Even worse".
Jaden would also be there
There should have been more past characters in Arc-V including some classic Yugioh Protagonists.
Here in my opinion who should've been in Arc-V.
1. Seto Kiaba (because of a certain theory)
2. Joey Wheeler (because I want to see his weird looking chin again)
3. Reginald Kastle (because Kaito wasn't enough)
4. Syrus or Chazz (because they only chose only 2 GX characters)
5. Yusei Fudo (because of a certain card!)
Which certain card that Yusei had that you wanted to see
When Alexis showed up, I was hoping my Boi Jaden/Judai finally appear and confess and hit that
HAHAH yes!!! I wish lol
Atem: “Jaden, you gonna hit that?”
Jaden: “ummm...nah.”
Atem: “Shame...damn shame.”
LittleKuriboh Abridge series.
I want him to motorboat her jugs so bad.
@@Airdathegamer rule 34 and fanfiction...
@ULGROTHA
Joey and mai are the closest
The simplest answer is that it would take away attention from Arc-V's protagonist Yuya by having previous show's protagonists playing an active role in the show.
Yugi, Jaden, Yusai, and Yuma could have been manifested as fragments of Z-ARC in order to attempt to prevent Z-ARC from being reborn. Can you picture Z-ARC dueling Pharaoh Atem, Jaden/Yubel, Yusai, and Yuma within the minds of Yuya, Yugo, Yuto, and Yuri?
I can, and there's a fan video close to it
Can we get another season of *yu gi oh GX* after Jaden graduated that would be greaaaat thnx
True but unfortunately that won’t happen. The only show they go back to is duel monsters. I think one day we will probably get a remake of the duel monsters anime.
to be honest i think that there will be a movie of all the protagonist coming together by a vortex but also the main villains so i believe if we were to ever see judai again it would be in a yugioh movie
Maybe a spinoff manga

Well all of them are pretty dark. Jaiden went full existential crisis mode at the end of GX and then all of Yuma's friends died at the end of ZeXal.
Well on arc v protagonist was the final boss tho
the reason and this is somewhat confirmed because one of the creators of arc-v sort of confirmed it is that the 4 dimensions are dimensions where the protagonists of each never existed and the events that transpired never happened. this is now from what i can tell a result of the original dimensions splitting into 4 new ones.
CardriderDraw - Level2 ayyy Ex-Aid!
CardriderDraw - Level2 so basically all four of the protagonist were wiped from existence

*Yugi* - Chaos Soldier, Buster Blader, Magician of Black Chaos, Dark Magician Girl, Arcana Knight Joker, Osiris, Obelisk, Ra, and Horakhty.
*Judai* - Flame Wingman and Shining Flare Wingman, Absolute Zero, Gaia, Acid, Elixirir, Sunriser, Rainbow Neos, and Stratos.
*Yusei* - Junk Warrior, Nitro Warrior, Turbo Warrior, Junk Archer, Junk Destroyer, Formula Synchron, Stardust Dragon, Shooting Star Dragon, Shooting Star Savior Dragon, and Shooting Quasar Dragon.
*Yuma* - No. 39 Aspiring Emperor - Hope, Hope Ray V and Victory, Beyond the Hope, Hope Lightning, Gagaga Cowboy, and Future Hope.

Yu-Gi-Oh ince a show about card games, now a show about dimensional travel enough to make you get invested.
Who would have guessed
xD I do tend to overly analyze the show, so that also contributes to these crazy theory videos
question, why Yugi, Jaden, And Yuma turned into bad guys for while, And Yusei didn't?
Good question honestly! I'm not sure if there is a solid reason, but maybe they couldn't think of a reason as to why Yusei would have evil in his heart
I don't if you agree with me, but i would be greagth if make a vídeo, thanks
Jorge Montoya If I think of a good enough reason then I definitely will! I don't make these theory videos too often, only when I can establish enough evidence! But I'll def look into it!
Cool, that would be Nice, And it was a sugestión, thanks
sorry i don't know when yuma went bad i only watched zexal for galaxy eyes lol, but id say yugi went bad because (untill yugi changed him) atem was quite a dark spirit and jaden had a dark side(the supreme king) where as yusei did not have any dark influence except maybe his rough life and the tragedies he went through as a child which couldve both been helped by his close relationships with his friends (as shown in beginning of bonds beyond time)
So the way I saw it, was just that things were split up at random almost. A big thing to note is that The City never had the momentum malfunction. I don't think it's that Yusei doesn't exist in The City, but without that explosion, he would have never been orphaned, he would have never met Martha, Jack, and Crow, and he would have never become a Duelist (since he most likely would've followed his passion, science and machinery, just like his father). So it's not that these characters don't exist, just that the specific coincidences that lead to their rise never happened.
I would have LOVED to see Yusei and his parents sitting with the Tops during the Friendship cup to reinforce this.
Awesome video as always, by the way! ☆
Thats what I thought as well. Yuma would most likely be carded without Astral, Yugi is simply too old / not revelant anymore and lives in Standard or Fusion. But I can't figure out where Judai would be.
+Kisetokage Jaden is a Fusion user so he'd obviously be a Fusionite, where as Yugi would most likely live in Standard since there are not only Fusion but also Xyz monster that'll work well with his Dark Magician.
William Tibbits I know but since Standart didnt have Fusion, Synchro and Xyz originally, I guessed Yugi could live in both. I'm aware that Jaden would be in Fusion, but that also means he would be in Academia, because Asuka was there as well and nobody knows what the Academy is doing. However I doubt that Jaden would card people, but he isn't with the Resistance either. So he's just kinda not around. Maybe he's in Venice.
I still believe that the reason is because the other main characters would steal Yuya's spotlight and that's the reason that they gave us Asuka, Edo, Jack, Crow and Kaito just as fan service since they couldn't give us the main characters.
But if Zarc manages to revive and no one can stop him i do hope that the main characters pop out of nowhere.
And with your theory i guess it would make sense because it was Judai, Yusei and Yuma who united the other characters and with out them they couldn't meet or become friends.
But the counterparts are actually relevant to the plot and were Arc V chracters. They wouldn'T just give that much glory to an old MC in a new show(for good reason).
when yugi's grandpas soul being taken through a TV was enough to blow your mind never mind about this
Yugi is best protagonist.
In my opinion
i agree.
#1 yugi
#2 jaden
#3 yusie
all after are boring to watch
naaaaaaaah nah
Yusei best
mees arentz And Kaiba is the best rival
When you say Yugi, do you mean Atem? Because Yugi himself is actually pretty terrible. The most interesting character story wise is Yusei because he is more than just a child.

Me too
This theory does make a lot of sense, and I agree with it. But for the people who have brains that can't comprehend this, you could just say the first 4 or 5 ( depending if Atem and Yugi count as one protagonist or two.) met Yuma before somehow and when the xyz dimension was attacked the protagonists other that Yuma, went there to help and got carded. ( but I doubt anyone would have the skills or even guts to card them)
Derp Gits Gud good theory
well they might againest say jaden and yuma, since without the numbers yuma isnt as good (although hes still amazing after after all the experience he got from helping astral), and jaden just isn't known quite so widely as a great duelist like yusei and yugi, this is shown in gx where the only people who truly acknowledge his skill are those who know or have dueled him, where as yusei and yugi are well known to be insanely (to the point of being ridiculous) good duelists.
true...but Jaden also was never put on the same fame platforms as Yugi or Yusei either...everyone knew who they were because they were in broadcasted worldwide championships and whatnot...jaden was stuck in duel academy but his skill is definitely up there with them...id even say he's 2nd best with yusei as #1 in pure skill....yugi(atem) was a duel god for sure but got lucky way too much and cheated a lot too whether or not ppl like to admit it...hell jaden beat a guy who pretty much killed the entire world
Dragon Spirit 6868 well, they would just be racing for autographs(and then card them? who knows🤷🏻♂️)
I saw a different theory:
When the world split into 4, Ray merged each of Z-arc’s counterparts with one of the protagonists
First: Z-arc is a fully evil being, but only Joeri showed evil traits. It’s unlikely Z-arc was 75% good and 25% bad.
Second: look at each of the characters closely:
Yuya and Yugi: they both have multi coloured spikey hair split into 2 layers front and back. They both wear their school uniforms as a cape and carry some sort of pendant of power. When Yugi losr control to and almost killed Kaiba, he feared to duel again, not trusting himself. A nearly identical reaction to Yuya. When both characters find that their dueling might cause suffering for others. They halt, immediately. They both runs Magician decks mixed with dragons and strange creaturez.
Yuto and Yuma:
While Yuto may be more ruthless then Yuma’s cheery personality, we can see before the Acadamia invasion Yuto also had a friendly and cheerful personality, but it all changed with the kidnapping of a loved one and the calamity of war. Both share determination to try and achieve their goals no matter the cost or amount of attempts, the only difference being that Yuto is more successful in achieving his goals. Both run warrior and spellcaster based decks with warrior Xyz monsters.
Yugo and Yusei:
They both have nearly identical origin stories: growing up in poverty, however through savings and studies managed to build their own d-wheel, and escaped the poverty. Both show very little care for the Tops, and for security authority. Both run decks full of machine monsters that allow the user to synchro summon nearly any level of synchro monsters.
Yuri and Jaden:
Those who watched GX might think this one is insane, until they realize:
By the end of Gx Jaden is revealed to be a reincarnation of the darkness of the Supreme King, Jaden is the Supreme King, and when the Supreme King took over Jaden committed atrocities. Furthermore, he fused the souls of himself and Yubel, meaning Jaden, Yubel, and the Supreme King are all the same person. And when Z-arc was added to the mix, it fully corrupted him. Yuri doesn’t duel cause he’s ordered to, he duels for fun, just like Jaden. He mocks his enemies while establishing a clear dominance, and plays in a way to slowly strip away and use his opponents cards to his advantage, just like the Supreme King. He finds great pleasure in malicious and sadistic plans and actions to psychologically torment his enemies: just like Yubel. Both Yuri and Yubel run dark plant based decks. And, the one card that Yuri, Jaden, the Supreme King, and Yubel have in common: Super Polymerization. A magical special card created by the Supreme King by sacrificing people through negative emotions, a one of a kind card.
I'm sorry but with the amount of power imbued into yugi I just can't see anyone else beating the king of games (who was said to create the game in the first place). He had all 3 god cards and exodia. I'm sorry but it's a win
Doctor Dj Chibi D. X. Tech
have you seen the new mechanics in action? the god cards are lame compared to some of the new crap that is out there
otaku dx yeah,god card are shit now, yesterday i was able to summon 3 8 stars synchro monster in one turn that can only be defeated by banishing,obviously i won the duel in 2 turns
That shows how broken the game is getting
Tomoharu Yara irl god cards are weaker than anime by far. should be noted the opponent can't tribute them
GamerSastn Yugi is getting a new deck.
Maybe he revived Asuka in the hopes that his Fusion version could learn Rituals? XD
TheLionTurtle I think Ray has to do with or maybe she read up history about asuka then she revived her when the world split up to 4 dimension..
TheLionTurtle You know when you think about it, Auska was the one the who had a part to play in making Yuri feel like an outcast and turning him evil which subsequently led to a number of things that helped further Zarc's revival. What do you know, she was important after all... Kind of...
Poor Auska.😔
i love how everyone says duel monsters was the best let me remind that duelist kingdom was the most broken one of them all.
I definitely don't disagree with you! I loved DM as much as the next guy, but it had its flaws. Not my favorite Yugioh series
to me duel monsters is one of the worst ever first series of an anime. duelist kingdom sucked the virtual wold waking the dragon weren't good either. series 5 was way to jumbled. battle city was the best personally yugioh abridged makes the unbearable parts bearable.
anakin smith The abridges series is great xD But yeah, I think the people that say "Yugioh went to sh*t after DM" just let nostalgia play too much of a factor.. Also they probably never gave the shows after a chance, its one of my biggest pet peeves when people say that honestly haha
it's the same with pokemon people love that it gone back to the animation of gen 1 even though the same people where praising xyz for being the best.
yugioh everything, trust me i know how you feel.

Although apparently, 5ds isn't too bad, if you can look past the whole "card games on motorcycles" bit.
Lol same
Ricardo Quezada 5DS ISNT BAD AT ALL!!!!
Megabuster i watched 5ds first season of xezal and still have no idea what he was talking about
GX was the best
I hope Zarc gives us some exposition on that when he revives. And since Ray is gonna come back soon, she will probably do so aswell. I'm sure she knows something Leo doesn't.
I hope so too! Cant wait for more information
Like maybe her Avatars being the keys to preventing Z-arc's revival?

Guys guys, the most important thing is: what happened to the cubic deck of Aigami (Dark Side of Dimensions) at the end?
I think the wish probably was a lot more vague. Rather than choosing exactly who existed and didn't, he just wanted there to be nobody who could stand in his way. This makes sense, because at the end, the one who stopped Z-Arc was Yuya, Z-Arc himself.
See I thought they were all just busy in their own lives I mean like here
Yugi:possibly going through school
Judai:traveling the world to get better at dueling
Yusei:running his dad's company
Yuma:basically the end of zexal
I could be wrong but I also agree with that
You could very well be right! There truly is no right or wrong answer when it comes to speculation!
Highly likely.
Yuma maybe in astral world,facing the villain in there
@@diephoainambui9682 I agree
I think to prove that 4 protags were in the same timeline and the summoning method complex can take a history book.
We could say like this: years after the time of 5Ds (when Yusei was already dead),ppl discovered XYZ,and probably Astral and Barian world. Then we have the time of Zexal when ppl forsook all Fusion and Synchro summon to pursuit XYZ (while a few ppl still fusion during the time of 5Ds). U see in the end of Zexal Yuma and his friends were going to attack "sth strange" that was invading Astral,Barian and the Earth. It could be that Yuma won,died of old age and over time Barian and Astral world became irrelevant. Or it could be that a great war broke out that destroyed Astral and Barian,but the Earth managed to survive and win,some duelists died in battle while some died of old age. Maybe due to the aftermath of the war that ppl realized they needed more than XYZ,or they just rediscovered Fusion and Synchro. Anyways,we have a renaissance on Fusion and Synchro and finally 3 summoning methods coexist equally (although Ritual wasn't recovered much XD). So years (maybe hundreds of) after Yuma's death and the renaissance,we have a new star named Zarc who could use all 3 summoning methods then the story just goes like what Yugioh Everything said.
I think that synchro monsters did not appear in zexal because of the ener-d.
Yusei became a scientist at the end of 5ds and found a way to stabilize the energy production of Synchro monsters. If his theory wasn't a permanent fix and/or his team needed more time to get the stabilization right and create a permanent fix, the use of synchros would have been banned to prevent a zero reverse. If zexal takes place in the main timeline, then it would explain the lack of synchros.
By the time zarc rolled around we know that synchro monsters were a thing again. So thus they were unbanned due to their stabilization finally being completed.
There is another reason the previous protagonists weren't there. They could be living a different life than in their shows. The evidence I have is the fact that the syncro dimension was changed drastically. If the main characters of earlier generations didn't exist than why did Zark not split Domino City. It got split when the reactor exploded, but that didn't happen in the syncro dimension. If the split never happened then Yusei's dad would be alive and was able to raise Yusei himself. Meaning Yusei would have a different upbringing. Jaden had no friends due to Yubel injuring those that hurt Jaden. After separating Jaden from the Yubel Jaden's parents would be very protective of him. If Leo took over all connected to dueling in the fusion dimension Jaden's parents would protect him by not letting him near a deck. Yuma is the worst out of his school. He would have been killed by a fallen building when the XYZ dimension was destroyed. As for Yugi, he was a timid boy until the spirit of Atem came along. What if Zark made it so that they won't meet?
Lmao what the fuck happened with yugioh I don't know shit anymore where my kuribohs at
HAHAH it has gotten so confusing.. Even for someone like me xD
Yugioh Everything lol yeah it's kinda cool how they're trying to connect everything tho
Red Hood Indeed! Then again, this is just my theory, and who knows if the writers have actually given it this much thought! I'd like to think so though
Fun Fact: Every protagonist we have seen so far have ace monsters that share the same Attack points
Yugi Muto Dark Magician 2500/2100 Normal
Jaden Yuki Elemental Hero Neos 2500/2000 Normal
Yusei Fudo Stardust Dragon 2500/2000 Synchro
Yuma Tsukumo Number 39: Utopia 2500/2000 Xyz
Yuya Sakaki Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon 2500/2000 Pendulum
In other words, Zarc killed the other protagonists...
Chose not to revive them, kill them, I guess its the same thing! hahaha
Yugioh Everything i doubt that zarc could beat the old protagonists but we havent seen zarc dueling so im excited
Elemental HERO Stratos That's probably why Zarc killed them because the protagonists had the potential of stopping Zarc.
Jonathan Galicia you can't really kill what is already dead
What do u mean the protagonists were already dead?
So he can prevent people from being reborn? You'd think things like the Egyptian gods would be pretty pissed that all these characters that were pivotal in the salvation of the world would be gone from any record of existing.
I'm pretty sure you can't just go and erase things like the Pharaoh, his best friend as well, and not expect the gods to basically step in and just magic up some pain for the guy.
I haven't watched this show since GX. Man, it's gotten confusing.
Synyster975 ditto
Synyster975 true....I stop watching the series right after battle city
Ikr
stopped at zexal wish I could erase my memories lik Atem did
GX was the best, u didn't miss out on much
While I don't have a source to cite for this, I believe the writers have stated that the legacy characters are alternate universe versions, they aren't related to the plots of the previous shows, they're exclusively fanservice because it's an anniversary show, and the main characters just don't exist in those alternate universes.
Also, I think you're overthinking what Yusho said, I think it's more likely that him and everyone else across the dimensions are totally real, but their memories surrounded Zarc and Ray's fragments were altered to make them seem more natural.
Considering that the previous 4 protagonists all have some kind of power or magic involved, it’s possible that it protected them from being messed with.
First off, it technically IS confirmed that the protagonists still exist because Jack's duelrunner appears in arc V and it was built by Yusei. The reason they don't appear is because whatever disaster happened in the previous series didn't happen in the alternate dimensions. The zero reverse incident didn't happen in this timeline so Yusei was born in the tops probably became a scientist and built Jack's duel runner. Whatever happened in Zexal (didn't watch that one) probably didn't happen either, so Yuma never met Astral stayed a crappy duelist and most likely got carded in the xyz invasion. No explanation for what happened to Judai tho he probably didn't join duel academy since their policy isn't "have fun" in this timeline. Not sure what timeline Yugi is in but he probably never solved the puzzle. Don't know why we never saw Kaiba tho a multi-millionare surrounded by giant blue dragons is kind of hard to miss.
when zexal came around I thought that I was done watching yugioh forever... but this video has made me think about giving
arc-v a chance
Wow thats awesome! You definitely should.. IF you dont though, Yugioh 6 is coming in April and it looks like it will have that 5Ds vibe to it!
You, sir, have some crazy timing. I just started watching it about 6 minutes ago.
I haven't made a decision yet, but I can already tell that it's leagues better than zexal.
Dylan Burgdorf That is awesome!! I hope you really do enjoy it! I liked it more than Zexal, but the main complaints with Arc-V are towards the middle-end so I hope you like it all the way through!
So far it's pretty good. I doubt that it will replace Battle City as my number one, but I love the fact that the duelists who aren't in some kind of shadow game finally have a reason to act like they've been been hit physically when they take damage. My only gripes are that the theme songs are meh, I personally prefer the mechanical duel disks over the laser ones, and Crunchyroll only has 60 episodes. 8/10 with a possibility of a better score in the future.
Dylan Burgdorf I watched all of zexal, and it was terrible, this one is good for itself but its way too much plot and not enough dueling for me, more like 5ds in the story set up, but a lot of pointless time filling goes on
I came up with a filler series of the four (Yugi, Jaden, Yusei, and Yuma) getting their souls seperated from their bodies. Their souls would then be placed into an amulet which a new character would wear and have the four of them with him. (like Atem for Yugi) The characters goal would be to search for the bodies of the four and help them get their lives back. I thought it would be a good way to have the main characters meet and interact with each other better. But it is just a idea.
Wow you've given me so much nostalgia. I remember watching Yugioh so much as a kid. Thank you for this. I appreciate you bringing back my love for Yugioh.
I agree that alexis,kite,aster,jack and crow were revived in there bodies but they just don’t remember gx,zexal and 5ds
Can we all realize this started in Ancient Eygpt (5000 years before DM) with Pharaoh Atem in the first YuGiOh
Emily Lemas *3000 years.
Nice theory as always.
I have a timeline theory, but it does go against your theory of the five shows, first four and Arc-V's normal dimension, being on a unified timeline. Now, I'll admit that the theory is a bit of a stretch, considering there isn't a lot of hard evidence.
The theory is that the first three shows, DM GX and 5D's, are all on the same timeline. However, Z-One and the Ark Cradle event caused the timeline to be split into three parts. I'll refer to these parts as follows:
Original Timeline = Z-One never appeared in 5D's and the timeline ends with Z-One and the others going to the past.
Yusei Timeline = Yusei wins the duel against Z-One
Z-One Timeline = Z-One wins the duel against Yusei
Now, that third timeline is probably the hardest to convince people that it exists since it involves a main character dying. However, this is a case where the villain winning does not mean the end of the world. Examples: Marik wanted to gain the power of the pharaoh, but his psycho side being in control would probably lead to the death of many people. Bakura and Dartz flat out were going to destroy the world. Yubel uniting all the dimensions had high potential of backfiring, but fortunately it didn't.
The point is is that Z-One was only trying to get rid of Moment, not destroy the world. He wanted peace and happiness in his time, so he had to go the past.
Back to the timeline theory, quite the segue I know. We established the first three shows take place on a Unified Timeline, then the Ark Cradle Event splits the timeline into three separate ones.
Zexal's placement is not as hard to figure out as it may seem. The answer is in the lack of Synchros. Zexal takes place on the Yusei Timeline because the results of hearing what Synchro and Moment does in the future leads to the destruction of Moment before it can get out of hand, but in a more contained way than Z-One's idea of destroying it. What does Moment have to do with this? Well, Moment is what gives Synchros their "power", and destroying it caused the Synchros' "Power" to disappear making them useless. To make sure that Dueling would continue to evolve, XYZ monsters were introduced to see that would happen.
Arc-V's placement may be the most difficult to reason out, and that is because of the returning characters as well as the four dimensions. However, your idea that Zarc revived those particular characters means the other four shows must have taken place before it, right? Which would mean that it takes place after Zexal on the Yusei Timeline, correct? Well, I believe that the show takes place on the Original Timeline. Why? Because all different Summoning methods are in this show. If it took place after Zexal, Synchros would not exist. Of course, Zexal taking place on one timeline and Arc-V taking place on another doesn't explain how Kaito returns in Arc-V.
This is where the Multiple Worlds theory takes place. The theory is that for every decision that is made, another reality is created where a different decision was made. So, the Kaito and other returning characters we see in Arc-V are not the same as their original counterparts.
Now, to explain Arc-V's placement, the answer is Z-Arc and Ray. Ray is Leo Akaba's daughter, and his wish to bring her back was what sent him off the deep end. As a result of reuniting her, and all of the dimensions, however, caused Z-Arc to return as well. After his defeat, and the subsequent re-splitting of him and Ray into the Yu Boys and the Bracelet Girls, Leo believes this to be the best possible solution. However, Z-Arc wasn't done as the damage he caused across all the dimensions were now converged in one.
This leads to the destruction of many homes, and many lives are lost, including the Bracelet Girls. As Leo tries desperately to revive his daughter, again, a familiar energy is felt around the world. Z-Arc's final plan was to destroy the existence of all reality, not just humanity. He let people unknowingly create Moment Chambers around the world, and eventually they all were set off once he saw fit. How is Z-Arc still around? He is actually a spirit, like Atem and Yami Bakura. He houses himself in a prolific scientist and manipulates him into believing that Moment is the best solution to the problems of the world, and the other scientists trusted him.
After the subsequent destruction of the world, and Leo's desperation to see his daughter, and everyone else at that point, caused him to become Z-One. Why did he choose that name? Z-One is just like Z-Arc in that it is a Z followed by a dash and then a three letter word so that he can remember who did this. The One represents the fact that he was the last person alive. Now, why did he go to the 5D's era instead of to when Z-Arc was first around? Because he wanted to erase the root of the problem, Moment. Z-Arc used all of the negative emotions in the world to cause Zero Reverse to happen and the subsequent end of the world. So, Leo decided the easiest way to do that was to destroy Moment before Z-Arc ever existed.
END OF THEORY
I will say that the last three or four paragraphs are pure speculation since we don't know how Arc-V is going to end.
Also, wanted to throw this out there, the Z-One timeline I outlined earlier is where I believe the Sixth Show to take place. The Ark Cradle has caused the destruction of Neo Domino City and the people are trying to get back on their feet. (The show takes place far enough along that people remember it as a great tragedy, and that they are almost back to what it was like before then.) This allows us to see people duel for anything, food, money, etc. Also, since the characters will have a tendency to sacrifice to gain, this would allow Ritual Monsters to be the Fancy Summoning Method of the Show. It would also allow us to see something like how when a Dark Signer would Summon their Earthbound, innocent people were offered up. The same could happen when bad guys Ritual Summon.
What do you think of the Timeline theory, and of the possible Sixth Series idea? I know there's a lot of reaching in the Timeline Theory, but then again when isn't there when it comes to making a theory?
I definitely like it! Love reading timeline possibilities like this, I slightly disagree, but the concept we agree on. There was something that happened that split the line after GX to 5Ds and Zexal. I would love to see the 6th series be on that Z-One timeline you mentioned!
Daaamn last time I watched Yu-Gi-Oh, niggas were going wild on motorcycles
To some extent I fully understand why that is the case and it is completely idealistic why some people wanted yugi judai yusei and Yuma to appear but that is why I agree.
I like how Yugi has Destiny Draw Probability, and Yuma has Xyz Change Manipulation thingy
I thought it was SHINING DRAW!
And Yusei and Yuya have the power of creat any monster in their extra decks.
Or perhaps the 4 protagonists of the previous series also exist in Arc -V, the fact is that in the series the conditions are not created to make them as they have become in their respective series, probably in those dimensions they are simple ordinary people
Yugioh Duel Monsters for me is the best version.
When yuya defeats Dennis in the xyz dimension the dad says he won the duel tournament on top of the heart building and I was thinking that he might be yuma
Another Theory says that Rey made the 4 Yu boys by combining the quarters of Zarc with the protags
Yuya=Zarc+Yugi and Atem (literally can Create Cards that didn't exist before and we see Yuya do that alot)
Yugo=Zarc+Yusei (have the same backstory atleast 95% is same like some scenes from both can be put side by side)
Yuto=Zarc+Yuma and somewhat Astral (literally was a Nice boy like Yuma to 80% and 20% normal human only reason he seemed cold was because of the War)
Yuri=Zarc+Jaden, Yubel and the Supreme King (where Rey somewhat miscalculated since, like Jaden has fun dueling, loke Yubel is Sadistic and like the Supreme King is arrogant and has the Skill to back up that Arrogance and like the SK he doesn't take his Enemies seriously)
With this Theory that means Yuya possesses Yugi, Atem, Jaden, Supreme King, Yubel, Yusei, Yuma, Yuto, Yugo, Yuri and Zarc too (and somewhat Astral too) that would make him literally the most Powerful Duelist ever
The Yu boys are the Replacement for each
In fact, Zarc may have been split into 4 soul peices and placed in to the dimensions as a new version of each
Yuya is our Yugi I'd say
He's in the Standard Dimension for one thing and has a Distinct "Pendent" Item
The Millennium Puzzle is to Yugi
As the Pendulum Pendent is to Yuya
There's a flaw
If yusie didn't exist after the split
Then how does Jack have the dual runner that yusie made and he stole
Kamen Rider Nexus i didn’t watch Arc V, but the D Wheel Jack uses mainly both in 5D’s and in Arc V is not Yusei’s original D Wheel, Jack said he broke it and replaced it with his current one
@Nikoru Sama thanks for sp correction
I guess
Here is my big theory about Yugioh Arc V all 6 of the yugioh series are connected to the five dimensions
Standard/ Pendulum is part of Yugioh Duel Monsters where Paradise City has been built over Domino City and Yuya has replaced Yugi / Atem.
Fushion Syncro and XYZs are part of a different timelines of Gx 5ds and Zexal , and Jaden Yusei and Yuma have been replaced by Yuri Yugo and Yuto.
The Original dimension is where V Rains takes place and Yusaku has not been born yet.
if Yugioh bring back the original Duelist from the Past
that be awesome
What?
They are already doing this.
xXKaiserKnightAnimationsXx fuck all of them and make the duelist of the roses cannon and bring the rose duelist in this, since I stopped watching after 5D and the rest of the story seems like nonsense to me lol.
For me DM wasn't exactly good in story. It was good for the duels.
@@Viviana088 uuhhh you want a game to be canon because??????
They already there ig remember how each villain was able to tp dimensions? Maybe the og duelist yuma yuse yugi Jayden and etc in a portal
Not bad,however a massive hole at the endbof the theory is that zarcs one wish,the one thing that turned him into a monster is that he wanted to fight the strongest of the strong and defeat them. So he had a reason to bring them back.
They all got shadow realmed thats y
xD
I would‘ve love it if the protagonists met and have a char or something and then everyone goes to a diferent dimention and made like a Mission to stop war, and they would reunite and stop Zarc together
They try to fight Zarc but proceed to get their ass kicked becuase they wouldn't have the MC plot armor then.
Lets de-prove that theory with this example : Kite should be good. Kite lost his memories? It has to be that, otherwise, its a different kite. YUMA has Astral, and guess what Astral has, thats right, you guessed it, the NUMERON CODE, which means he can play god, theres no way Zarc is ever touching him, but counter statement, at the end of *ZeXal*, they all had to stop a new (unshown) villan, and that villan could've been Zarc, and if all these universes are really together, then he probably beat them, yada yada....
Hmm , that would actually be interesting if Zarc was the villain in Astral world! Never considered that, but keep in mind, if this is 100 years after Zexal, Yuma would be passed away, along with the rest of the Zexal cast. So the numeron code might not be in play anymore. But hey, you make a good point, and it is just a theory! There are definitely some holes in it
Yugioh Everything Lol, but that idea I too admit, is pretty good, the villan at the end of the episode I mean.
But isnt astral immortal so he would have the numeron code anyways and even if he wasnt immortal...the numeron code will still be with astral world and barian would be on their side and they could wreck him... BUT ANYWAYS has anyone thought that they might just exist in different dimensions? Like the other 4 protagonists are in a different dimension..As in like remember in GX there are 12 dimensions.....say the one in ARC-V is one of those dimensions and after it split and became 4 there were just another extra 3. Lets say astral is still alive cause hes immortal ...he probably wouldnt get involved unless the other dimensions REALLY needed help so he'd leave the job to the protagonists of ARC-V and only get involved if they needed it...so yeah. The wiki even says that the alexis rhodes in ARC-V is an alternate universe version of the one in GX...that means that that the other characters in the series are also alternate universe versions of the characters from the previous series..althought technically i think it would be alternate dimensions cause arent dimensions bigger than universes?.......Anyways yeah. I'd rather think of it this way as opposed to all the previous protagonists were just erased...and this is hopefully how it is despite the ending of the series.
Guys in 5ds wasn't it about idk 30-40 years after gx? It's pretty simple why the protagonist aren't in here . Their dead they can't live forever. Now zexal I can see people questioning why isn't Yuma there?? But with yugi,judai, yusei their not alive anymore
Yugi Muto is Yuya Sakaki
Jaden Yuki is Yuri
Yusei Fudo is Yugo
Yuma Tsukumo is Yuto
Tea Gardner is Zuzu Boyle
1/2 Alexis Rhodes is Celina
Akiza Izinski is Rin-Rin
Tori Medows is Lulu Obsidian
Declan Akiba is Seto Kaiba
Your correct
the most badass ending i can think of for arc-v would be the worlds combining leading to the original 4 coming back from being sealed by some force/ revive and what not and supporting yuya into coming back or better yet defecting zarc themselves
Yes!! That would be incredible
This is a really great theory, props to you for coming up with something like this!
I can really see this being the case~ c:
Thank you so much! That really means a lot!
Yugi, jaden, yusei, yuma vs zarc will something like: egyptians gods, divine neos, shooting quasar, utopia ray victory vs supreme king zarc.
This is old but, maybe someone will see it, I believe that the old protagonists are in arc v and just don’t show up, I mean if z arc was messing up stuff in the go dimension, why didn’t they team up to stop them? They don’t because they would out shadow Yuya it’s his story, they had their turn, (no pun intended). They are alive, but they don’t show up
Forgive me if I’m wrong but, In Zexal didn’t astral have control over the numeron code which allowed him seemingly godly power which even allowed him to bring back the Barian leaders, shouldn’t he have the ability to stop Zarc as well?
After gx I tried to like 5ds its ok but after that everything is shit
Eren Yeager they're confusing to me after 5dicks haha
I actually enjoy arc 5 lol
I tried watching it, but didn't understand it
Guess I am the only one who liked Zexal
The original and Gx is great
5ds and Zexal was okay, Arc 5 i haven't even bothered.
Also as for the zarc resurrection theory it's likely that would have happened naturally if not for Ray's interference. From we saw of the bracelets, their primary function seems to be as a fail-safe preventing the Yu boys from meeting. If one of them enters the same area as another (providing one of the bracelet girls are near one of them) then the Yu boy who was originally there gets transported to another location. The fact that this system is the one used to stop Zarc's resurrection means that the way Zarc revives wouldn't be stopped by dueling. After all the way Zarc revives is by having all Yu boys in one place (and them dueling each other), so the theory that Zarc chose not to revive the four protagonist because they can stop his ressurrections doesn't hold a lot of weight. Also as Zarc aimed to be the strongest duelist by beating all others, preventing some of the strongest duelists from dueling doesn't make a lot of sense either. Finally, as I explained in the comment below at least Yusei is confirmed to exist in his dimension.
Yugioh Duel Monsters is the best nuff said, after that I couldn't even watch it anymore...
It did get pretty complicated after Duel Monsters! GX was alright. but I really enjoyed 5Ds! I've loved all the shows but DM will always be a classic
Yugioh Everything True the way Yugi finished of the 3 EGC beast and the best duel in the entire anime :D
Mahesvara Yes! That and the Kaiba Yugi Semifinal duel in Battle City! Two of the best duels in ALL of the 5 yugioh shows in my opinion!
Yugioh Everything
I didnt watch the others but true for a moment I was thinking that Kaiba would win xD
You remind me the genwunners from Pokémon.
Finally somebody called him Judai. Good job my bro ❤❤
The answer is so simple: Yusei can't meet Yugi. Or Yuma, or Yuya. There was a 100-year time gap in between 5Ds and Duel Monsters, and them meeting would implode the world and destroy everything. Also, timelines imploding would cause the dimensions imploding, causing the revival of both Zarc and Ray. At the same time. Because mass cannot intersect mass, the original dimension would be GIGANTIC. And four identical earths? Yeah no. The four earths in the intro would not be able to exist. Even if they did exist within space, are the four dimensions on the same earths or on different earths? If they were on the same earth, how are they shown as four identical earths? Wouldn't the dimensions intersect, creating the United World in the first place? Arc-V never split, it just reset. All the dimensions are one, otherwise how would they be able to travel between them?
Deanna Whitener acutally the time gap between gx and 5ds is only 20 to 30 years
Really? I've heard from multiple sources that it was 100. I'm gonna go check again. Sorry if I'm wrong!
Deanna Whitener it is more common sence since trudge appears as one of yugi's classmates in the original duel monsters
Yeah, you're right. However, "Trudge" could, in fact, be the son/grandson of Yugi's former classmate (who only appeared in Season 0, I might add) and he is in fact Ushio the 3rd! Who looks just like his grandfather.
Deanna Whitener they did actually confirm that is was him in duel monsters
My theory (more of a prediction really) is that if and when the Arc Area Project is finished, the 4 dimensions become the united world again, but each dimension will have a period in it's history when it is most like one of the four dimension, with one of the avatars of Zara becoming the hero of this era (Standard in the DM era, Fusion in the GX era, Synchro in the 5Ds era, and Xyz in the Zexal era). Essentially, Leo Akaba unites the four dimensions and creates the main Yu-Gi-Oh timeline. It's a baseless crackpot theory with holes in it like Yuto the badass becoming Yuma the fuck-up (didn't enjoy Zexal all that much if you couldn't tell), but it kind of makes sense.
Not a bad theory at all! That would actually be so mindblowing I think people would lose their minds hahah
Thanks. Though based on how the show is headed, with Yugo and Yuri fusing and all, I'm not sure that their going to go down that path. One can hope though
All of the Yu-Gi-Oh! series are one linear timeline? Huh.
I'm (partly) with you on that theory. ARC-V's story is far better structured and more complex than those of the older animes, so they must be hiding something from us. ARC-V seems more thought out, more precisely planned, while the older ones seem to have lots of improvisation.
Also, I have a strange feeling that for some unexpected reason, Leo fails to revive Ray, or it just won't escalate as he planned.
Zarc's revival on its own has a bigger probability.
Just a thought.
The real reason is because MCs from the previous series would steal the show from current MC. Maybe not so much Judai and Yuma, but if Yugi or Yusei shows up, everyone is going to be more interested in them than Yuya. The audience's focus will shift away from the intended main protagonist to whoever else the audience likes best, which would ruin the intended story. Good writers know this and will avoid writing in old main characters other than giving them a few seconds of cameo.
Felur Falas they could have them running newer support cards...
Well then, the writers f'ed up, if they wanted to show us a protagonist who becomes an antagonist. IDK, if I was in charge, I would make Zarc too powerful for Ray to handle, and then have the 4 previous protagonists show up, and defeat him in a swift fashion (like how Atem defeated Diva in DSoD).
Except that would have just been stupid.
Judai too, Yuma not so much.
Would have been cool if they maybe shown yusei, Yuki and Yugi watching the yuya or crow dueling to save the world or just showing Yuki and Yugi just chilling and yusei ridding his love (bike)
I breathe in this theory!!!
It makes perfect sense. My previous theory before the entire Zarc/Ray thing was revealed is that Akaba Leo is actually Kaiba Seto, but now that Ray and Zarc are introduced, I know better now. Now I was fiddling with this theory as well so I agree with you. But it would be nice to get explanation about why none of the original YGO series side chara such as Jounouchi/Joey or Anzu/Tea or even Bakura not mentioned....
Why would he not want to revive someone like Don 1000 or Night shroud, how about Mirak or even Rex or Rudger Godwin or Zone
Imagine the other four coming in at the end like Digiom: Xros Wars. That would be awesome having another moment like Yu-Gi-Oh!: Bonds beyond Time.
If they wanted to do something like that they would have done It in another Bonds Beyond Time like movie and not screw up Arc V.
great video, u just proved why the other protagonists are not the protagonists of* arc v
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it
Yugioh Everything
it wasn't a compliment
stunt94u AHH it was sarcasm, gotcha, happy new years!
Yugioh Everything
please, take it as a constructive thing....tnx, happy new year to u aswell
stunt94u Haha I will! It is just a theory after all
Since the original timeline was destroyed. The world was rewritten as certain things was wiped out so no strong person could appear whether if it’s for a good or bad reason. The four Zarc beings were embedded then with the righteousness of the four heroes. Each of the Zarc beings possess goodness in them as they show characteristics from the four original protagonist.
Zarc is a person I thought that he was a dragon because you see a dark shadow behind yuya in the duel against Selena and ruri
Thomas Newton he was a person but his insanity make him fuse whit his four dragons to obtain a "god-like power" in his words since he become so powerfull than no one was able to satisfie him/ be a good rival in a duel againts him, in that moment he fuse whit the dragons him lose his humanity (both spiritual and terranal)
Thomas Newton that shadow behind yuya was odd eyes raging dragon
I’m watching Arc-V right now and when you said massive spoilers I had to pause cause I’m only at the friendship cup 2nd rounf
I mean its fairly obvious why they are not. Because the events of DM to Zexal never took place
I was literally thinking that too. If any of the four previous protagonists were around:
Yugi, or more likely Jaden, would've made sure Duel Acadamy never went all 'Evil Dystopia'.
And if that failed, Yuma isn't one to back down from a challenge, so, he could've done something to save Heartland City, with his friends (Astral and the Barians included.)
Oh, and, Yusei and the other Signers all together? There's no way Z-Ark would've stood a chance against the five dragons.
But most importantly, those guys are the glue of their friends, especially Yuma and Yusei. If they weren't around, then everything could be perfect for Z-Ark.
I just wanted Johan back! T_T
Would have loved to see a cameo from him!
Man, he has pendulum cards and everything. He has to be tied in at some point.
Thank you for remembering in your imagery that was to be a 6th old character to be introduced in Arc V.
I honestly agree with your theory
Didn't think u will be here
Although I'm like 2 yrs late finding u XD
Excellent theory! although I disagree with one thing.
Jack, Crow, and Kaito would fight back with or without the involvement of Yusei and Yuma. To merge dimensions, Leo needs to invade all dimensions first. Crow would obviously fight back to protect the kids. Jack may fight because of his title as King. Kaito, the one person in Zexal who never lose to Yuma, would go so far as destroying the world to protect his brother. Bringing these 3 back is like signing the death certificate for Leo, which ultimately leads to Zarc's failure.
And if Zarc needs to bring someone back no matter what, there are still plenty of better choices to choose from.
5D's has Aki, who was literally a witch without Yusei's involvement. Sherry who only wanted to avenge her father, or even Divine who might team up with Leo for his own benefit.
Zexal has Vector, well, I don't need to explain, do I? Number 96, or Mr. Heartland.
Not only are these characters less likely to oppose Leo, in case they do fight back, they are also arguably weaker than Jack, Crow, and Kaito.
Btw, what if Yuya's egao was Zarc's intention all along?
You know, just brainwash everyone with egao ad no one would fight him back. XD
