Image[edit]

Why is there a fan-fic image instead the one from the official magazine? Energy X 22:21, March 4, 2014 (UTC)

I already explained to you, it's not fan art. --Golden Key (talkcontribs) 00:02, March 5, 2014 (UTC)

Monsters[edit]

Shouldn't we not be adding monsters which we assume Yuya will use his deck until ARC V anime is released, except for the ones previewed. --The Supreme Master Of Stivdog 17:12, March 15, 2014 (UTC)

Right. Well also, there was an official magazine pic of Yuya riding "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon", so that's included. --UltimateKuriboh (talkcontribs) 17:26, March 15, 2014 (UTC)

Yuya's Dueling Record[edit]

Should we mention that before his duel with Hokuto, Yuya had won 26 out of 46 duels. Not only that, but should we also mention his wins/loses against unknown duelists like Junpei, Koichiro, etc.. This information was given in Episode 08.--Omojuze (talkcontribs) 16:27, June 21, 2014 (UTC)

Bump!!!--Omojuze (talkcontribs) 09:41, June 22, 2014 (UTC)
Uh, yes, we could mention it. As to where, I'm not so sure. Cheesedude (talkcontribs) 20:44, July 4, 2014 (UTC)
I added it to his record. I wanted to explain the math in the edit history, but it published prematurely, so the explanation is here instead:
Yuya was mentioned in episode 15 to have won 26 out of 46 Duels. This presumably includes his on-screen Duels with Strong Ishijima, Yuzu Hiragi, Shingo Sawatari, Sora Shiun'in, Hokuto Shijima, Declan, and Shuzo (7 Duels, 6 won by Yuya). Since I wanted to add only the Duels that had happened off-screen, this meant that before the events of the first episode, Yuya had won 20 out of 39 Duels. Another assumption was made that none of those Duels resulted in a Draw, meaning that Yuya had won 20 Duels and lost 19. RedDrgn (talkcontribs) 02:46, January 14, 2015 (UTC)
Upon further investigation, it seems I missed some details; despite Dueling four times between episodes 8 and 15, his match record was still 26 out of 46, meaning those four Duels were off the record for some reason. I'll fix this in the article, and I'll also include the listed names from episode 8. RedDrgn (talkcontribs) 02:58, January 14, 2015 (UTC)

Yuya's Decks[edit]

Is it possible that since we are entering the City Arc that Yuya's Decklist gets a new section? — This unsigned comment was made by Numberc17 (talkcontribs) 21:44, May 23, 2015‎

Maybe. We usually just split Decklists by arc when they get too large. Yuya's is probably getting there. I'd have no objections to splitting, but we'd want it split between the three arcs thus far, not just two. Cheesedude (talkcontribs) 00:05, May 24, 2015 (UTC)
I was under the impression that we dropped splitting of characters' decks by arcs/seasons. It's not like Yuya changed his deck or combined it with another archetype. He still uses the good ol' Performapals, albeit with new strategies involving Fusion and Xyz. -- The Talk Goblin 13:02, June 1, 2015 (UTC)
We want to keep decklists merged when possible, but its simply not feasible for main characters (DM has more splits because of the clear arc structures and the fact that the rules change). It really does need to be done on a case-by-case basis. Yuya's deck is only going to continue to get bigger. We don't necessarily have to split it yet, but I'd call it inevitable. And when we do split, we would want to do it by arc. Cheesedude (talkcontribs) 15:55, June 1, 2015 (UTC)

dub nickname[edit]

how do i edit his nickname sora keeps calling yuya Coach Y in the dub (nicknames Coach Y (dub Only)) i dont know how? (The Twinke Star in the Skies 21:49, August 29, 2015 (UTC))

Yuya's Name Etymology[edit]

Would really like to erase Yuya's name etymology concerning the Egyptian part. Japanese language doesn't work like English when running through name etymology. That kind of thinking usually only applies when a character's name is written in Katakana, and especially when they're given English spellings like Yugo/Hugo.

Since Yuya's name is written in Kanji, his name must be broken down by Kanji, not through how it's pronounce in English, or worse, English-Egyptians. Of course unless, the author or director says otherwise.

But actually, Yuya's first name doesn't really mean anything that much. The 遊 just means game and 矢 means arrow. That's about it.

It's his surname that's meant for concern. While Sakaki 榊 just means evergreen tree, in Shinto religion it's actually used to call upon deities while having the area protected. However, discussion amongst Japanese fans say that Sakaki is instead, a vessel for a divine being. Probably means the same idea, but just different wording. An example of the discussion is this. Mubibi (talkcontribs) 13:34, September 26, 2015 (UTC)

You know what? Never mind, someone beat me through it. Mubibi (talkcontribs) 13:48, September 26, 2015 (UTC)

Reasoning[edit]

But it's no different to when Yuya and Jack dueled Security in the middle of their duel, or when Michio and Teppei dueled Obelisk Force when they were dueling the Lancers. --Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 05:45, September 11, 2016 (UTC)

I still say to leave it as is. Security, Reed, and Trout were the ones who interfered in the Duels in progress in the first place. The particular Duel in episodes 120-122 is treated as one Duel. Each cell in the Duels section is supposed to represent an individual Duel. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 05:51, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
Agreed. It's one Duel, the whole "Battle Royal" thing is established by action, not rigid rules beyond the ability of any participants to attack anyone. That being said, possibly the others should be changed? Sanokal K-T (talkcontribs) 06:00, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
Even so, Gogenzaka is no longer part of the duel by the time Jack and Sanders join in, so listing him in is kinda pointless. It's one thing if Yuya continued dueling Battle Beast alone or if Gogenzaka still had some life points before Jack took over. Other than being eliminated, its no different to previous seasons when a character takes over a duel for another character. --Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 06:41, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
Regardless of what you said, the Duel still continued, even if Jack and Sanders came in. Gong's page already establishes that he lost this one particular Duel. I still stand by my point of leaving the current Duel table alone. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 06:44, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
Then why not include Jack and Sanders in his duel record? --Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 06:49, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
This is a possibility, but they joined after Gong was defeated. Each individual cell represents a single Duel, as I already stated. The episodes that are next to them are the episodes in which the character was active in, up until they win or lose. Jack and Sanders didn't join until after Gong was defeated. Anyway, I already put them in Gong's page, but I'm still rather skeptical. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 06:53, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
I was being sarcastic...

But having Jack taking over for Gogenzaka is no different for when Yugi took over for Kaiba after he lost to Noah.--Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 06:56, September 11, 2016 (UTC)

True, but Yuya was still Dueling the Battle Beast for the span of three episodes. Noah Dueled both Yugi and Kaiba separately, even though this particular Duel was treated as one. The Noah vs. Kaiba/Yugi Duel is an exception to this. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 07:04, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
It's not an exception. Both duels feature a character losing (Kaiba and Gogenzaka), someone taking their place in the next episode with the field left as it is with a minor change (Yugi merging his deck with Kaiba's, with Noah rearranging his deck and Jack taking an intrusion penally), and the duel continues with the old character leaving behind what's available for the new character (Yugi having Kaiser Seahorse as his Deckmaster and Jack having Yuya as his partner). And there's also this part of the summary from 121: "Jack and Yuya continue to fight while believing in each other, while Sanders and the Battle Beast use raw power to dominate their opponents. What will be the outcome of this Tag Duel?" --Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 07:20, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
I can see the similarities here. But the old version of the table before your edits is cleaner, as it doesn't link to the opponents and the episode twice. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 07:22, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
Does it really matter if the episode is linked twice? It was like that with Yuya's duel with Jack until Security interrupted. --Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 07:25, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
That particular case is forgivable because the intrusion was resolved right in the middle of the three episodes. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 07:26, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
But it doesn't matter when it was resolved, its still similar to this duel. --Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 07:33, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
You know what? Neither of us can agree on what to do next and arguments tend to go nowhere rather fast. I'd like to work out a compromise to settle this. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 07:39, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
How should we settle this then? --Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 18:21, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
Use your table setup and add a note that Jack took over for Gong. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 19:10, September 11, 2016 (UTC)
I think I might have a different idea. --Jackpo21 (talkcontribs) 16:04, September 12, 2016 (UTC)
So, what exactly are we arguing about? I've read the whole conversation and still don't get it. Cheesedude (talkcontribs) 20:53, September 12, 2016 (UTC)
The bottom line is, we were arguing about whether to keep the Yuya vs. Battle Beast Duel on separate cells. You might want to look at the edit history too, Cheesy. ChaosGallade (talkcontribs) 21:08, September 12, 2016 (UTC)
I see no reason to use more than one line. Its still the same Duel. Cheesedude (talkcontribs) 21:37, September 12, 2016 (UTC)
