Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS
Anime series
Original run

April 2017 —

Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS[1] is the sixth Yu-Gi-Oh! anime series and the fifth main spin-off series. It will begin airing in Japan in April 2017, following the end of Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V. The series will star a new protagonist, Yusaku Fujiki, and takes place in a high-school setting, featuring Duels that involve virtual reality and some form of hoverboards.[2] A series of Twitter posts was released and translated, stating that "certain Duelists who use this VR system are called Charisma Duelists, which is something akin to YouTubers".[3]

Story

The sixth series focuses on Yusaku Fujiki, a high-schooler who doesn't like standing out in crowds. However, he gets drawn into encounters with people as he tries out Dueling for once. The show's theme is "Take a step forward, and try!", on the premise that kids should start to try things out instead of just giving up at the first try due to being overwhelmed by information.[2]
