"Neko" (猫 Neko), known as "Cat" in the English anime, is an archetype used by Cathy in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL. Though almost all members of this archetype have "Cat" in their English names, the support cards for this and "Cat" archetype list them as separate from one another. Both are completely unrelated to the Cat series from Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel.
While they are currently unreleased, the members of this and the "Cat" archetypes have been featured in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL World Duel Carnival and Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links video games, although the themes themselves were retooled into "Stray Cat" and "Cat Girl" respectively for a more distinct identity and to avoid naming conflicts with older cards.
Etymology[edit]
The character 猫 with the Japanese furigana of ねこ (Neko) or びょう (Byō), all have the same meaning of the word cat.
