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 every Wednesdays at 6:25 pm Japanese Standard Time in May 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 Virtual Reality Duels in a cyberspace constructed with the latest technology called Link VRAINS. In this new kind of Duel, the players transform and Duel on some form of hoverboards. As with the previous three spin-off series, it focuses on (and introduces) a new type of Summoning. In this case, Link Summoning.
Story
The sixth series focuses on Yusaku Fujiki, a high-schooler and a hacker who doesn't like standing out. 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]
