LMAO They weren't ready. Knew things were fishy.

For anyone wondering about Yusaku's hair: spoiler[Yugi has 4 hair colors in the manga.]

I don't know about this series. Card games on hover boards that is just freaking ridiculous. Now excuse me as I go off on my motorcycle to play a children's card game.

I guess that Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS' English version will be this time either a dub recorded in Los Angeles or it will be a mix of voice actors based in Los Angeles and Vancouver.

So does this mean Arc-V and VRAINS will both be airing, or is Arc-V ending soon?

Nope. ARC-V is over soon.

Less valuable timeslot, but ARC-V was a step down from Zexal with the fans so its to be expected.

Really? I mean, I hated Arc-V but the comments from Youtube are all like "THE BEST MATERIAL EVER MADE FOR THE FRANCHISE". I miss 5d's and Zexal II so much

ARCV was good. Emphasis on was. Standard arc was genuinely enjoyed. Once Synchro hit though the quality and fans started evaporating. By the end it quickly became the most hated Yu-Gi-Oh series, usurping 5D's slot. Main complaints being mishandling of legacy characters and the director, who previously was in charge of 5Ds, spending so much time on 5Ds stuff. Also the worst final villain/duel in the series.

Im guessing Youtube comments are in English, so im mainly talking about the Japanese fans and ratings. In Japan the ranking is something like

DM > GX > Zexal >>>> 5Ds >>>> ARC-V

Funfact: ARCV is one of the most lowest ranking series on NicoNicoDouga. But maybe Americans like it more. Either way, hopefully VRAINS succeeds and can pick up the fandom again.

Arc-V's episodes have been getting the worst ratings ever in Nicovideo for a good while. The japanese fans (and the fanbase on 4chan) loathe Arc-V. I myself also hate it. In the end, the fans thinking it was good or the best thing ever are right now a minority from what I can see

You are free to have that opinion but in my opinion, ARC-V is the second best series, behind Duel Monsters and it reintroduced me to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Franchise. I don't know much about 5Ds and only know a bit of Zexal from the manga.

I'm going to be that guy. This is the seventh Yu-Gi-Oh! anime. Just because the production committee ignores the Toei series ever happened, doesn't mean it didn't actually happen.

Why? Have 4K Media shutdown their New York production office?
