What went wrong is that they made the classic reboot mistake of making it unappealing to the original fanbase. The show and simpler gameplay mechanics are so blatantly aimed at a much younger audience than the series' that came before and so alienate a lot of the fanbase from the other 6 shows, yes they wanna bring in new fans but to do so by cutting off your old fans is the worst way to do it and inevitably leads to the series not doing as well at first.

I think most people believe the real reasons for the art style change is due to the changing of animation studios and having simpler designs is usually good for more exaggerated animation. Look at how the Pokemon anime changed art styles when they started Sun and Moon. And the reason for the changing of animations studios is most likely due to the whatever behind-the-scenes production problems Studio Gallop was having during the end of Arc-V and all throughout Vrains. I mean if you can compare Zexal to Vrains you definitely notice a big dip in the animation quality. Not to mention Vrains had multiple recaps episodes during the first 50 episodes of the show, and the show ended much sooner than any other Yugioh show. Causing things that were set up during the show to come to an abrupt halt and be abandoned.

Studio Gallop, the studio that animated the Yugioh franchise since the original we all remember, had major financial and behind the scene issues during the production of VRAINS (the Yugioh series before Sevens). I don’t think Duel masters had any impact on the change of art styles, more so Studio Gallop just couldn’t continue production of animation with high quality that VRAINS and all the Yugioh series are known for, so they had to outsource to somebody else. Resulting in Sevens looking more like a beyblade series than a Yugioh series. That plus the basic entire new game that is Rush Duels, it’s essentially a different game, that ultimately alienated a lot of the hardcore fans.

I can see what they were getting at... The card game is in drastic need of just an entire wipe so they can start from the beginning without the mess they made over the years of broken effects. The problem was they went at it completely the wrong way. You don't need "faster duels" because most games I've played last ten minutes or less and that's because the current mess enables you to lose the game without ever playing with surprising ease. They should have just rolled back to the beginning and started rereleasing the entire game from the beginning with the updated card visual format while changing card effects entirely where needed to unbreak them and make it so we can actually play without a pages-long ban list and perhaps work the card limits into the game directly so you don't have to consult a website all the time. Not abandoning everything that came before, just going through step by step to fix it all and if Konami needs motivation, they can get in on all that "resell the same cards for the 100th time" action but better because it would make people stop quitting the game entirely.

For me it wasn't the change of the art style or the new game mechanics that made me skip Sevens. It was the fact that I loved Vrains. I loved the serious tone (with an occasional humor to soften things up) that Vrains was riding on. That certain gritty futurism that was way over the top but still felt somewhat believable. The way it handled serious topics even though being a card-game anime had won me over. And to have it ended so abruptly with so many loose ends and unfinished plot points, to be replaced by an anniversary series that had NOTHING to do with the occasion and just felt like a dumbed down YGO that I just couldn't take seriously... I mean, I could've moved on from Vrains with satisfaction, had it ended properly. Had the story been properly tied up and the game been pushed to it's max I would've been sad to see it end, but I would've cherished the graceful end of an era. The way Vrains ended felt rushed and hollow. It did give some incredible duels and moments, but that was just a fraction of what could've been. Maybe I'm just the wrong demographic for it's target audience, maybe I should've stuck around a bit longer so it could've enthralled me. In any case, it just wasn't my cup of tea and I'm not planning on giving it a second chance. If I'm missing something spectacular as a result, then that's on me.

Too many recap episodes, a story that felt like 5D's tone with Zexal's plot, and several times where characters insisted that all duels are 1 vs. 1 even while there were armies being fielded just made the show feel unfinished and unappealing to me. I have a friend who insists that Vrains did get good, and I'm sure it does, but I gave up on it before it got to that point.

Like as almost completely seperat from other serieses I embraced the goofy nature of it eventually, I love the character writing in the series. There are characters you would see in other yugioh serieses and they would appear for one episode and never again, but in Sevens each on of these characters comes back and contributes to the plot or has their character expanded upon I also love the references the show gives to others. I like especially the Girl that uses a baseball themed Yuma deck

I remember seeing Yu-Gi-Oh Sevens on Disney XD one day when flipping through the channels, and I was like "What did they do to this franchise!?", which is why I can understand why so many fans were turned off by it, especially the art style.

That’s what I’m saying, they making this more childs play than ever.. bunch of kids like Pokémon for example

For me personally, I love the new card design for rush duels. My only complaint is with certain legendary cards. While cards like Pot of Greed makes sense to be a legendary since its allows the player to draw 2 cards, especially with no hand limit in rush duel. However, having Normal monsters like Blue-Eyes or any high attack monster from the DM era doesn’t make sense to me. Those high attack beat stick can easily be dealt with cards like dark hole or mirror force , if those cards ever come to rush duels. Which possibly will in the near future. I hope that the legendary tread would be on only certain overpower cards and not iconic Monster from previous Yugioh anime. Rush duel looks simple for now. It’s only inevitable that they were introduced others summoning mechanics like synchro,xyz, and link. Along with monsters with very powerful effects like in the TCG.

I really don't think we're going to get stuff like Synchro, XYZ, and Link. Even with Fusions they took steps to make it less powerful than in the regular card game. You can only fusion from the field and all monsters used two specific cards with usually at least one being used exclusively for fusions. The main thing is you're looking at this like the regular TCG where it will keep going on and getting more power creep but it is not. Like speed duels before it will have a certain shelf life. They have a plan for how to meta will progress. For example, right now in the meta, pretty much any Legecy card is much better than most of the cards in the game. If we were to remove it would pretty much be regular Yugioh. They won't add any cards that disrupt this balance and they haven't.

@@SparkShadow212 the combos in yugioh in a casual setting aren’t hard AT ALL. I taught my friend to play yugioh and he was able to make full tearlaments boards in around 2 days of playing. Why? You memorize the cards (easily done), you play a lot, and, I can’t stress this enough, you read OCG structures. Yugioh is a memorization game. You memorize the effects of the cards, and you play. Deck building and such come after. A beginner can easily just buy a pre-built deck like a starter/structure deck, and simply start playing. Perhaps it becomes harder for a person to learn the game by themselves, but that’s basically what I did and I can play perfectly fine. I started yugioh by seeing kids in the back of my school bus play. I learned the FUNDAMENTAL rules by watching the anime. My first decks were pre-built (structure decks). I started playing myself a lot before I found others who played and I started playing with them. I learned deck building by buying three of the same structure decks and I started to build decks that way. My first “non structure deck” build was entirely just a mismash of cards I pulled from boxes which also taught me about archetypes. I then took this knowledge to build an orcust deck after watching a video by Cimoooo on competitive decks. I completely bombed my first locals because I didn’t understand the competitive format and used a dark magician deck instead of orcust but that’s fine. All of this is built on a foundation of memorization. The more cards you know, the better you are at the game. And the “difficulty” of memorizing Yugioh cards is greatly exaggerated. My 7 year old brother was introduced to yugioh (by me) a month ago. He lives in China so I bought him three of the OCG only Utopia structure decks. He memorized all the card effects in 1 week and built his first deck with the three structure decks about 3 days after the first week. And now we sometimes play online. And I will reiterate, this is a 7 year old. It took me a year until I played my first locals. My brother likely won’t be playing any locals anytime soon because he’s 7, but he has managed to do what took me around 6 months to do in less than 2 weeks. My point is this. There are MANY resources to help play Yugioh. Whether it be the anime, KZreadrs, OCG manga, master duel, duel links, self play, online play, playing with friends, etc. yugioh isn’t hard or complicated if you know how to use those resources. My first 3x structure deck? The XYZ structure deck. I built a 3SD deck, went to dinner with it to show my friends, found a card shop next to the dinner, went in, it was maybe 30 minutes after the end of YGO night that day, and one of the older players there looked over my deck and sat down and helped me make a deck list. Don’t exaggerate what yugioh is. It’s because of myths that make Yugioh inaccessible. Things like Team APS, Card Market Yugioh, and the OCG manga are able to easily illustrate combos and competitive yugioh while still making said effect chains easy to understand.

Duel Masters not only didn't work outside of Japan, the English edition of the game has less than 1000 cards. I'm currently trying to get as complete a collection as I can.

Tell me about it at least digimon its going stronger And stronger now in tcg

It's pretty cool to learn that Duel Masters is still pretty popular in Japan. I was super into it when it arrived in the US 300 years ago, but at the time all of my friends were getting out of YuGiOh and weren't interested in picking up another card game, so with nobody to play with I eventually dropped it. I'm surprised there haven't been any video games made for it considering how popular it appears to be, minus the training apps that came out recently. With a Cardfight Vanguard game finally making it to the US, i'd love to see other new games make their way over. A Weiss Schwarz video game would be amazing, though they would probably have to pay quite a bit in licensing fees to add all those anime characters in.

I just hope the next series brings back the artstyle. I know it's because they changed studios and the Yugioh style and character designs were getting too complex to keep up with. At least draw the eyes the same 😭

From what I've seen so far, I'm digging this new studio but I still really hope that Gallop isn't completely done with Yugioh. I hope it's possibly for both studios to coexist somehow

I think the Concepts of Yu-Gi-Oh! Sevens are handled well. Rush Duels as a game are fun to play, and the anime is light-hearted and fun, and Yuga is pretty likeable for me. My only gripe with Sevens is that we don't have it in the West Yet. Saikyo Battle Royale is coming to english though so I am excited for that! We got a good future ahead of us!

I love Rush Duels as it tackles the problems on old school yugioh and why I'll never return to that era: Slow Progressive Play and Resource Management. Here, players can go ham and have a fair chance of comeback with drawing up to 5. Nice reboot without actually intervening the TCG/OCG. As for the anime: while the plot feels one-dimensional and filled with comedic absurdity, there's this hidden layer of overarching mystery that progress and contributes to it. What I loved especially during the Roa Arc was its usage of the side characters. Unlike GX where the "Duelist of the Week" just never gets seen again, Sevens gives them a role to play much later on to help the protagonist(s).

@YamatoFukkatsu

To be honest, I find myself rather enjoying the comic absurdity. I mean, it's not like previous series weren't absolutely full of crazy shit (to begin with, this is a franchise where apparently every conflict in the multiverse gets resolved from playing a card game). I guess you could blame Sevens for cranking that absurdity up to 11, though it also seems to retain a hint of self-awareness (especially in the way Luke's ambitions get played up to be little more than chuunibyou screwiness). I particularly like how the show apparently has zero grasp on how computers actually work and just sorta rolls with it (Kaizou's consciousness "falling" into a bike seat, the Rush Duel system being run by a giant robot on the moon that was haphazardly put together with crashed satellites, and now we've got a child's manga character gaining sentient life through a fax machine). But if there was one thing I can't say I'm very fond of, it's the way that a lot of things end up being some big nothing burger despite their build-up (off the top of my head, one episode ends with the ramen shop guy smirking only to reveal next week that he was laughing at something on his smartphone, and groups like Top of Hexagon and Goha 66 turn out to be complete jokes). And yes, you are very right about the side characters. Hell, in previous series, forget "Duelist of the Week" characters, we'd be lucky just to see anyone who isn't the main character, and the major rival if we're lucky, amount to anything worth shit.

Wait until Konami eventually introduces a Yata Lock-type strategy by accident, then the "slow progression" will slowly turn into post 2010 yugioh and people will start complaining how absurdly broken rush duels have become. Let's face it, no one liked the slow older formats when yugioh first came out. It tried to be like MTG, but it didn't have the resource/mana management aspect of it , which meant that the game speed will eventually accelerate like a d-wheeler at some point, else the audience gets fucking bored. And no, I am not referring to playground yugioh, I am referring to the actual tournaments. Competitive people will complain if shit gets too slow, and these are the people who actually buy the product in bulk. How else would Konami be able to sell more cards if they maintain the game speed and power level? Yugioh doesn't have set rotation unlike mtg. Rush duels will eventually catch up to the tcg and ocg.

Duel Masters confused the hell out of me, but I loved it as a kid.

We needed a new show with Seto Kaiba

They made characters of the same age as the target demographic, thats the issue. Just can't take kids seriously man.

in Yu-gi-oh sevens and Go Rush. some summoning methods is removed. Pendulum Summon, Synchro Summon, Fusion Summon, XYZ Summon and Link Summon. is removed. and no longer exist in new Yu gi oh series. the new summon method is the Maximum Summon. only existed. also Normal Summon, Advance summon, Special Summon and Tribute summon still exist. those basic summoning method. that been common. Yu Gi Oh animators and other staffs (Producer and Director) is not adding back those other summoning methods, Pendulum,Fusion,XYZ, Synchro, and Link summon. Kinda sad.

Ok I’m pretty sure that Yuga didn’t delete regular standard duels. He just added option of Rush Duels.

Man I wish duel master was still in the USA I enjoy the game I have a old gba game of duel master

I truley believe one of the reasons why older fans losts all interest in yugioh was due to all the slight dramatic new additions or changes in the rule of dueling game. This being tied to new yugioh series. Also, yugioh, sevens seemed like a far less creative story compared to its predecessors.

Go Rush is a more sci fi kids show and has very few new legend cards shown, relying on its own lore for new cards to be shown. To me these series are a breath of fresh air after the disappointment that Vrains was and its characters that, aside from Soulburner, were as interesting dry paint. Sevens has gone past the Yugi, Jounouchi, Kaiba dynamic for a 4 man band including the best female character in the series performance wise, a team chemistry not seen since 5D's, and a supporting cast that breath life (albeit wacky) into what is essentially a dystopian world.

I got this figured out. Yu-Gi-Oh’s trying to copy Pokémon’s anime strategy of making their art style cuter for the new generation of fans. But the difference is that Pokémon has a protagonist for old fans to continue rooting for. It's almost always a soft reboot in every single series and it can be argued to be its weakness too, though. But it's somewhat working so far with the power of suspension of disbelief. Pokémon also has a strategy of bringing old characters back for some episodes, just for the nostalgia of it, fan service, and fanfic materials.

It was not the anime, but the new rules sets of seven that brought me back to yugioh some time ago, I had a blast making decks on those yugioh simulators and then trying them with my pals. I even printed some cards just to play them physically on a local card shop since they never left Japan.

They didn't even release the game in TCG English, and I was excited to get the Starter decks... well I can't

The reason the art style changed is because the animation studio changed from Studio Gallop for the first time in 20 years.

Besides the art style change, I think the big problem for a lot of people was the premise and the idea of having a much younger protagonist. For me, it was that on top of being consistently let down by the previous series. 5Ds was great, and Dark Signers is one of my favorite arcs, but after that, it just went way downhill. Zexal was shit. People love to say Barian was great, but it takes more than half the series to get there (if it takes that long for a series, especially one with 140+ episodes to "get good", you have a huge problem) and it's honestly like a 6, maybe a 7 at best. Definitely not worth sitting through everything else. Arc-V started amazing, but then things start going downhill with Synchro being largely a waste of time and a much worse retread of the Satellite arc from 5Ds. Then we get to XYZ and everything starts turning bad, then to outright dogshit with Fusion. VRains was just an overall meh with hints of greatness that it never quite achieved. So yeah. After 4 series and nearly a decade of disappointment on top of a new look and premise I was not fond of, I checked out.

"No one starts a series with the seventh entry" But some do start with the third tho Well, I guess people can change the duel disk modes between Master and Rush, as the disks enter the Rush mode by voice command. Overall, SEVENS as an anime is OK, not the masterpiece people who are already 10+ years into YGO want, but a fun anime to watch nonetheless. Rush Duels are a step in the right direction, creating an easier to understand game where non-Maximum monsters are either vanilla or have 1 card effect, and effects that recycle hand, deck and graveyard constantly. This makes for a game that you have the sensation that you can actually make something (not that I despise the current state of TCG, but it is very easy to get frustrated) with nice back and forth.

So they decide to hire a new mangaka to promote the new main series with 3 slot card with easy to understand mechanic (not a continuation of the past series/use the same dimension)

While there are a good deal of stuff from the normal game into rush duels, there is basically no backwards crossovers. While it would be a bad idea to port mechanics, as it would dilute the games and give it no reason for both to be played instead of one or the other, but havig some of the cards sound nice. Especially some of the exclusive types like Omega Psychic or Magical Knight

I actually played the Demo for the switch, it was really fun since there's hubs in 3rd person with open areas. It's like the same as the games previously but you actually interact with characters. But I'm gonna be honest sevens was suppose meant to be for newer fans not veterans, since base meta game is complicated as hell. It is weird for them to be the 20th anniversary special, maybe their trying to restart on the whole Children Card Game

It was because Kazuki Takahashi's art style was too difficult to recreate with new animators that was there desistion of the new studio that does the yugioh anime

Art style that deviates completely from the late Kazuki's own style when all other spinoffs/sequels tried to emulate it. Aiming at an even younger audience than ZeXal Infantile storyline Centred around a card game that isn't Yu-Gi-Oh. Gee, I wonder.

Looking forward to playing Rush Duel in Duel Links.

I like the Rush Duels, the rules are simple and fun, and the turns don't take a lot of time until you wait for your opponent to special summon and combo so hard like a gazillion times. What I don't like about the game? The Legend mechanic is great but it hurts that some of the Legend cards will never be used because they are week compared to others, like Sakuretsu Armor. Why would you use Sakuretsu Armor that destroys one attacking monster, when you have Mirror Force that destroys all attacking monsters? Or cards like Mystic Elf or Vorse Rider. Its annoying that you cannot make a Legend card centric deck, like a Blue-Eyes deck and not a Dragears Deck or a Dark Magician deck and not a Sevens Road deck. I wish they would give us more support so that we could add that legend card faster in our hand or cards that allows us to recycle that Legend card. Its annoying that we can't use fusions like Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon anymore because of the Legend rule that prevents us to run multiple copies of Legend cards. Cyborg fusions are way to OP and they work in almost any deck and it's so easy to get the fusion materials on the field. Their affects are extremely strong to. There are some annoying cards that need to be limited or nerfed, the card that I hate the most is Dark Liberation, you shuffle 4 cards from your grave to deck and you can destroy all attacking monsters. It's so annoying to face spellcasters centric decks because when they have 4 spellcasters in their grave you are always afraid to attack and I swear to God they have that card all the time. Another OP card is Dragears, that card can attack a second time after it destroyed a monster. Not so OP like Dark Liberation, but it is not a fair card.

The number 9 has also been used as a counter for the afterlife, the nine heavens, and that is a spiritual rebirth of sorts. Don't get me started on the number 10 and how it represents the beginning of a new digit, how in binary it can be used to represent "2" in decimal, the continuation or the true sequel as opposed to a decimal 2, how it represents a perfect score in many concepts and as such victory (in a game about victory), etc etc. You can keep digging for meaning where there is none, 7 is just the number for this season and it sounded cool to the Japanese marketing people to call it with an English word, it's something they do pretty often.

Sevens means alot to the show. As you said its rebirth. 7 is also the amount of attributes the game has, which is the amount of attributes yuga needs for his deck. 7has alot of meanings for the show

It's hard to make a new Yu-Gi-Oh anime based on a new card system and have it somehow fit in the story.

What's the name of the card shown at the beginning?

In a very similar coincidence, the Pokemon Sun and Moon (or SM for short) anime also went thru similar polar responses when they want thru a drastic visual change after XY and XYZ, most likely due to the growing popularity of Youkai Watch at the time. It also has its issues, but it is quite enjoyable.

Yeah after xyz ended, pokemon fell off hard but sun and moon later made up for its mistakes and got way better than it was

Hmm Yokai Watch might be why both Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokémon tried to go to the child demographic as opposed to preteen one they had before. In both cases it did not work as they expected but for Yu-Gi-Oh it was worse because Pokémon is more episodic whole Yu-Gi-Oh tended to be more serial with long serious story arcs. I actually checked Yokai Watch and it was terribly childish. Like I played the game for a bit and watch the first couple of episodes and my reaction was this is too kiddy.

We should really make Legend cards a category on the TCG/OCG banlist, it would open up a lot of different deck building options and provide more balancing tools. It would basically be a more restrictive version of the limited list and a compromise between the current TCG and Duel Links banlist system.

This can be the hypothetical 2nd format. A category of card where you can only have one of, unless the list says otherwise. Like you can have one Dark Magician and no other legends. But you can have 3 Blue-Eyes. Hell, maybe allow 5 Cyber Dragons in the same deck.

I'd love to just have the accursed list worked into the cards so I can just look at the cards and not consult a website constantly for deckbuilding. Just put a symbol on them for how many you can run at a time! I'd also love to not have all the coolest cards get stuck with effects that slaps them almost directly onto the ban lists as well, but that would require them to actually learn the rules to their own game...

The thing is Konami is sitting on a gold mine making rush duels exclusive to Japan.

The art style I forgive since we have Gundam age, transformers animated, etc that all turned out good with the same issues. My main issue is just rush duel as an anime game; it makes the series too episodic with very little reason to come back becuase 90% of stakes are finished in the same episode they’re introduced especially in the beginning where there’s really no plot to follow.

You misspoke in your video. You said other than Arc-V no other Yugioh anime had a number in the title but 5Ds did as well. What I think you meant was that none had the number of its series in the name other than Arc-V and Sevens.

Yes that is what I meant.

....There's new Duel Masters anime?! That's much more interesting than freakin' Sevens! Jokes aside, I do recall there being some push back about when Pokemon changed the style so drastically for Sun and Moon and that's really not a bad series at all. I rather liked the more consistent cast instead of a stream of one off characters.

Not even bagging on the design but for real. Why does the protagonist of yugioh seven look like Spike (Kakeru) from ape escape?

I watched this show, the dubbed version. I tried so hard to give it a chance, I had to quit and come back a few times just to get through the first season. By the 5th episode of the second season, I was crying, I literally cried over what this show was. The other six series prier to it could be enjoyed by both kids and adults. I rewatched them recently, a few complaints with the dub now that I know better, but overall, they were still great. This series however is something you would use to introduce children to the franchise, kids between 5 and 8 years old. This series is not geared towards the older fans. It relies to much on comedy and the duels have no stakes. Before lives were on the line, the fate of the world, the future, and multiple realms were at stake. Now, we have duels over a mom not making her sons favorite meal; and championships with construction paper crowns for the victor.

Hey great vid Enigma! Love the discussion you brought forth - what you've said hasn't been mentioned before and is both unique and important in this discussion imo. Are you planning on revisiting sevens as it is planned to end soon and the next series is announced? Yugioh 8 is looking interesting. Personally wish Konami would go back to the original continuity, but I am enjoying the sevens continuity as well. Just miss iconic characters like yugi/seto, judai, basically all the cast of each series has something that made them really unique and distinct. Not to say sevens doesn't have this, but I quite miss the old continuity too, so I wonder how best this divide in the fanbase can be reconciled with the eighth series

Sevens in a nutshell is Yuga lost to the new mechanic or randomly against the guy that should have been the protagonist or the turn rival

Technically the original duel masters did work great but ONLY as anime it was my first fourth wall break experience 😁

I just want Yugioh to go back to its dark roots

actually you very well can start jojo with steel ball run. Its a hard reboot of jojo, in fact when it first came out it wasnt even called "jojo's bizzare adventures"

Studio Gallop had a lot of production problems since they did the DsoD movie while Arc-V was airing. And in VRAINS they had to change the animation director early on and changed some plot points. That's why they changed studios
