Orlando

Orlando, known in Japan as Kabukid (カブキッド, Kabukiddo), is a duelist who treats his duels as theater shows and only duels to impress his audience. Orlando duels against Jaden in the Genex Tournament only to be defeated and learn the true meaning to what a fun duel actually is. His cameo ends with him giving a rather ridiculous, yet humorous victory dance to Jaden & company. On a side note, both Crowler and Bonaparte are adoring fans of Orlando.

Orlando's Linework

His background story is altered in the English version where he is a Broadway actor claiming to have starred in plays such as "Deck Side Story" and "Duelist on the Roof" (puns of "West-Side Story" and "Fiddler on the Roof" respectively), while in the Japanese version, Orlando is a professional cosplay duelist obsessed with traditional Japanese Kabuki, a form of theater.

Jaden Yuki Lose

Orlando plays a Kabuki Deck. His deck is based on many aspects of traditional kabuki, especially the play Kanjinchou which contained Benkei, his lover Shizuka, and his opponent Yoshitsune. His Kabuki Stage Field Spells are interchangeable, and many of his cards utilize unique abilities that activate during battle.
