Cinco, known as V in the Japanese version, born Christopher Arclight and called Chris for short, is a character appearing in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime. He is the eldest son of the Vetrix Family and appears to be the most dedicated towards their cause. He later developed faith in Kite and Yuma into saving his father.
Contents
Design
Appearance
While his younger brothers (Tres and Quattro) have a crest on their hands; Cinco's crest is blue and on his forehead. Cinco has blue eyes and long, flowing silver hair with light purple fringes and one light green in the middle.
For his clothing, he tends to wear quite long and dark clothes, which fits in with his hair. It is interesting to note that while Tres and Quattro wear the same footwear, he doesn't, maybe highlighting how he is the eldest. Like his brothers (Tres and Quattro), he has a Duel Gazer tattoo which is green. Cinco's D-Pad is two golden triangler shapes with black segments on them and what appears as an infinity symbol between them.
When Cinco was younger, he had his hair done similiar to his father, with a braided resting over his left shoulder. By the time he left Kite Tenjo, his hair was loose and seemed to be the exact same length as it is in present times.
Personality
As the eldest brother, Cinco is most rational and calmest of his brothers, even more so than Vetrix at times. When he was younger, Cinco was gentle and mature to others, looking out for his younger brothers and made sure they behave.[6] When living with Kite, Cinco grew fond of him and taught him how to duel to protect his own younger brother, Hart Tenjo. After learning of his father's fate, Cinco becomes cold and stoic.[5] Assisting with Vetrix's revenge, Cinco keeps his brothers in line and is usually shown with his father conversing over important issues.
Cinco seems to be egotistical, shown by his incredibly angry reaction towards Yuma after taking only 400 points of damage from Yuma's card effect during the Duel Coaster event.[7] It shown that he acts cold and ruthless when he Duels. He has an intense hatred of Dr. Faker due to what he did to Vetrix and ruining his family.[8]
Etymology
In contrast to his brother's names, his name is pronounced as the letter "V" as opposed to the Roman numeral for "five". In the dub, his name is in Portuguese and Spanish, Cinco, which means five.
Abilities
Cinco's crest grants him various powers. It allows him to take control of others, as seen when he uses it on Hart Tenjo in order to make him get into his helicopter to take him to Vetrix.[9]
He is also able to perform telekinesis, as shown when he raised and moved Hart in the air.[10]
His crest comes with a price - it is directly connected to his soul; therefore, should he lose a Duel while wielding a powerful "Number", his soul will become exhausted and he will fall comatose.[11]
Biography
History
In the past, Chris along with his brothers and their father, Byron, lived a happy life, and they had a dog. Their father gave Michael a Duel Monsters card - "Chronomaly Aztec Mask Golem". Thomas was jealous because only Michael received a card and tried to take "Mask Golem" from him. Chris told them to stop or their father will scold them and then promises to teach both of his brothers how to Duel.[6]
When Byron became involved in Dr. Faker's experiments, Chris accompanied him in the lab. They were attempting to find the door that would lead to parallel dimensions, he was assigned to find Kazuma Tsukumo, an adventurer who was trying to find the same thing. Kazuma agreed to help them, and after examining their theory, he told them what was wrong with it. They had been operating under the assumption that were twenty-one passage points. By analyzing that data, they could determine where the door would appear next. Kazuma revealed that there were actually twenty-three passage points, something he had determined while adventuring. With that new data, they determined where they needed to go, but Chris stayed behind and leave Byron, Kazuma and Faker to travel to the destination.[4]
His father did not return from the trip, Chris' brothers were sent to an institution, while he remained at Dr. Faker's facility in an attempt to learn of his father's fate. Here he met Kite Tenjo and Hart Tenjo, Faker's sons, and they reminded him of his own brothers. Kite wished for power to protect Hart, and Chris taught him how to play Duel Monsters to suit that purpose. Chris eventually left the facility after learning about what really happen to his father.[5]Faker betrayed his father and Kazuma by offering them as sacrifices, which lead to parallel dimensions through the portal. When Byron returned, his form was warped into that of a child and he swore revenge against Dr. Faker. Chris' father told him him what had happened and took the name "Vetrix", while Chris became known as "Cinco".[4] Vetrix imbued each of sons with a crest, which granted them great power. However, it was directly connected to their souls, so should they lose a Duel while wielding a powerful "Number", they will fall comatose.[11]
World Duel Carnival Preliminaries
After Quattro gave Shark a Heart Piece, he returned to Vetrix to inform him, which Cinco and his brother, Tres witnessed.[12]
During the morning of the second day of the World Duel Carnival, Cinco was reading a book while Quattro was choosing his targets by throwing the "Numbers" that they have collected at them. Seeing this, Cinco commented that Quattro is too brash and suggested he treat the "Numbers" he's collected better. Angered by Cinco challenging his ethics, Quattro suggested Cinco try collecting "Numbers" himself and challenged him but is quickly shot down by Cinco being reinforced by Tres and Vetrix. After insulting Vetrix, Cinco rises to his feet and tells him he won't tolerate that causing Quattro to quickly back off. Cinco walked over to the "Numbers" that Quattro had thrown on the wall and gave Tres "Number 32: Shark Drake" and instructs him to give it to Shark. After his brothers left, he looked at Heartland Tower and swears that he will get revenge for what Dr. Faker has done. Vetrix saw him do this and informed him that no matter what, Dr. Faker mustn't know that he is alive.[13]
After Hart Tenjo escaped from Heartland Tower, he was chased by Dextra and Nistro in a helicopter which results in them going to a tower in order to meet Kite. Soon after, a helicopter appears in which Hart, Yuma Tsukumo and Tori Meadows think is Nistro and Dextra, resulting in Hart using his powers. After Yuma calms Hart down with a piece of caramel, the helicopter lands, but instead of Dextra and Nistro, the person piloting it was in fact Cinco. He used his crest to take control of Hart in order to take him to Vetrix. He then flew off, leaving Yuma and Tori confused as to who he was and what he wanted with Hart.[9]
Cinco transported Hart to the abandoned Gallery where Vetrix began his ritual to steal his powers. After Yuma, Kite, Tori and Orbital 7 arrive there, Cinco sent Quattro and Tres to stall them so that the ritual is completed.[2] Cinco watched the Duel as he's focused on Kite just like his brothers are. Like them though as well, he's surprised upon learning that Yuma possesses a "Number" card as well.[14] He is even more surprised to see that Yuma can use a "Chaos Number", then realizes that his surname is "Tsukumo" and starts wondering about something.[15]
After the Duel, he told Yuma that his father was still alive in the Astral World. When Vetrix finished testing out his newly obtained power, Cinco informed him that Yuma possesses the original Number. Vetrix then asked him if Yuma is the son of Kazuma Tsukumo, to which Cinco clarifies as correct.[10]
After Vetrix gave some of his powers to Tres, Cinco looked worried when he stands on the balcony with Vetrix. Vetrix told him not to worry about Tres because he will not lose to Yuma, but Cinco still looks doubtful. He was proven right when Tres lost, forfeiting a Heart Piece and his two "Numbers" in the process. Tres went into a coma when he returned home.[6]
World Duel Carnival Finals
Cinco attended the WDC Finals party, where he was confronted by his former student, Kite. Kite grabbed him by the collar, asking how his family could do what they did to Hart. Cinco responded that they simply follow Vetrix's orders and that he cannot hope to defeat Cinco or Vetrix in his current state. Later, Cinco made a transaction with the Fallguys, hiring them to defeat Yuma.[3]
The next day, the competition continued aboard the Duel Coaster, and Cinco saw Kite again before boarding and exchanged glances. Cinco saw Quattro and Shark each defeat an opponent easily, taunting one another in the process, and commented how Quattro is as feisty as ever. As what is coming next is unknown, Cinco decided to focus on conserving his Life Points and taking strategic advantage of the Duel Coaster's Spell and Trap Cards. An opponent approached him from behind, immediately attacking directly with his "Vylon Disigma". Cinco told him that anyone who approached him would be engulfed in hellfire. He activated his face-down "Sun of Hell", defeating the duelist in an OTK as he had five cards in his hand, taking 800 damage for each of them. Afer that, he hit a Spell Point, which was "Dian Keto the Cure Master", giving him 1000 more Life Points.[16]
When the Duel Coaster moved into the underground track, Cinco was approached from behind by Nistro, who wished to exact revenge for being humiliated when he failed to get Hart back after Cinco kidnapped him. Cinco negated Nistro's first attack, causing Nistro to tell him to fight with his full strength. Cinco claimed he didn't need to use his full strength to defeat Nistro and proceeded to inflict heavy damage with more Spell and Trap Cards. Nistro was saved by Yuma and the effect of his "Achacha Chanbara". This also caused Cinco to take 400 damage, which angered him greatly. When he was about to counterattack, Vetrix called him, asking if he was going to Summon a monster and telling him to wait and let Nistro struggle some more. Doing as he was told, Cinco switched lanes.[7]
Cinco and Kite arrived at the Space Duel Field, "Cosmic Frontier", where Cinco remembered the day he become filled with hate. They began their Duel, with Cinco bringing out "Number 9: Canopy Star - Dyson Sphere" on his first turn, which sealed Kite's attacks. When Yuma arrived, Cinco explained that Vetrix is his father and revealed his past history with both Dr. Faker, who is Kite's father and Yuma's father, Kazuma Tsukumo.[4] Cinco was able reduced Kite to a mere 100 Life Points with "Dyson Sphere". He questioned why Yuma considered Kite to be a friend and was reminded of Kazuma by Yuma's answer. Cinco still questioned how Yuma could have the son of the person responsible for his father's absence as a friend. Cinco told Kite his family has thrown away their own name for revenge.[5]
He wished to save his father, but his heart was already filled with revenge when he returned. Kite told him that was wrong - he fights to oppose his own parent, Faker. Cinco was surprised at how strong Kite had become, and Kite told him he would inherit Cinco's feelings and settle things with Vetrix for him. Bringing out "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon" with the aide of a card Faker had give him, "Feelings Towards the Future", Kite defeated Cinco. Cinco left through a portal, leaving "Dyson Sphere" behind for Kite and put his faith into him. Returning home, he goes to Tres's bedside, where he falls comatose[5], due to "Dyson Sphere" being such a powerful "Number" and his crest being tied to his soul.[11] He was later seen sleeping in his own bed alongside his fallen brothers. Vetrix revealed to a being through a portal that despite Cinco and his brothers being defeated his plan was still going perfectly.[17]
During Kite's Duel with Vetrix, he Summoned "Dyson Sphere" in an attempt to fulfill his promise to Cinco and nearly performed a OTK. Vetrix countered the move and destroyed "Dyson Sphere".[18] As the Duel progressed Vetrix revealed to Kite that he merely exploited Cinco alongside his brothers, Dextra and Shark in order to bolster feelings of hatred to Summon "Number 69: God Medallion Coat of Arms", claiming that he himself lacked emotion[19] After Vetrix was defeated by Yuma, he released the souls of those he has captured including those of his sons. Cinco and his brothers awoke afterwards.[20] He, his brothers and his father watched part of the Duel between Yuma and Kite. Vetrix told them they would go home now and they departed through a portal.[21]

Cinco plays a Burn/Space Technology Deck. His Spell and Trap Cards are based on the concept of Hell, and often counter attacks from monsters that have 2000 or more ATK. His monsters, on the other hand, seem to be Machine-Type monsters based on outer space technology. He is the only member of his family whose Deck is not centered around an archetype.
