'''''Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-Ⅴ''''' (read as "'''''Arc Five'''''") is a ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh]]!'' anime series, the fourth main spin-off series, which began airing in Japan on April 6, 2014, following the end of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]''. The series focuses on [[Yuya Sakaki]] and [[Zuzu Boyle]]. As with the previous spin-offs, it focuses on (and introduces) a new type of Summoning - this time, [[Pendulum Summon]]ing, as well as [[Pendulum Monster]]s and the mechanic in general. There is also a [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V (manga)|manga adaptation]]. It was followed by ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS]]'' on May 10, 2017. 

This series marks the only ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh]]!'' series to show all unique types of Summoning from the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game]]'' (though at the time, both ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! (anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' and ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' showed the available Summoning types): [[Fusion Summon]]ing (from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! (anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' and ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]''), [[Ritual Summon]]ing (from ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' and ''Yu-Gi-Oh! GX''), [[Synchro Summon]]ing (from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]''), [[Xyz Summon]]ing (from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]''), and the newly introduced Pendulum Summon.

It has a slightly different story structure than any Yu-Gi-Oh! series that came before it. Rather than having a handful of characters to remain the focus throughout the entire show, only [[Yuya Sakaki]] and [[Zuzu Boyle]] maintains permanent "main character" status; there are many other major characters with a only a handful being in the spotlight at any given moment.

==Story==
[[File:BigArcVLogo.png|left|thumb|150px|thumb|The Japanese ''ARC-V'' logo.]]
''Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V'' centers around [[Yuya Sakaki]], as he tries to escape from harsh reality by smiling. But one [[Duel]] leads him to make a determination to confront the difficulties and he will get the power of infinite possibilities. The show's main theme is "Take a step forward with courage!!"

Yuya is a student at a preparatory school, learning to become an "entertainment Duelist", a type of professional Duelist.<ref name="4k">{{citeweb|url=http://www.ltwmag.com/news/latest_news/4k_media_debuts_yugioh_arcv_at_kidscreen_summit.aspx|title=4K Media debuts Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V at Kidscreen Summit}}</ref><ref name="anb">{{citeweb|url=http://www.anbmedia.com/anb-media-news/2014/02/anb-media-news-february-13-2014/|title=Jeffrey Katzenberg to Give Licensing Show Keynote|last=Lombardi|first=Nancy|date=February 13, 2014}}</ref>

The story is set in [[Paradise City]] on the coast of Japan. [[Leo Corporation]] is run by its president [[Declan Akaba]]. Thanks to the spread of the company's "[[Solid Vision]] with mass," "[[Action Duel]]s" are born in Paradise City and has reached worldwide popularity. Children look up to star-level Pro Duelists, and they learn Summoning and Duel styles at various large and small cram schools, including the [[You Show Duel School]] that Yuya attends and the largest of such schools, [[Leo Institute of Dueling]] (LID).<ref name="orgvjump">{{cite web|url=http://www.ygorganization.com/ocg-v-jump-time/|title=OCG V-Jump Time|publisher=YGOrganization|date=February 17, 2014}}</ref>

One day, Yuya ends up fighting an exhibition match with the current champion of Pro Duel world…<ref name="orgvjump" />

During the Duel, [[Yuya's pendant]] begins to glow, giving him access to a never-before-seen type of Summoning called [[Pendulum Summon]]ing. This causes the [[Leo Corporation]] to take an interest in Yuya. Meanwhile, a [[Yuto|dark Duelist]] is trying to take down the Leo Corporation, and he looks exactly like Yuya!

In order to become a pro and follow in his father's footsteps, Yuya must win four matches in a row to qualify for the [[Arc League Championship]]. During this challenge, Yuya grows as a Duelist and eventually gains entry into the tournament. As the tournament is about to begin, Declan wonders whether Yuya has the strength to protect the [[Standard Dimension]] from his father, [[Leo Akaba]].

The Paradise City Championship is underway, and Yuya's first match is against his rival: [[Sylvio Sawatari|Sylvio]]. When they last met, Sylvio promised that he would master Pendulum Summoning before their next Duel and defeat Yuya. Meanwhile, [[Sora Perse|Sora]]'s opponent is none other than [[Shay Obsidian|Shay]], a highly dangerous Duelist from another dimension who has entered the tournament at Declan's request.

Ultimately, Yuya and his friends have found themselves in a ever-growing mystery surrounding the major Dueling schools in the city... and beyond.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.yugioh.com/news/new-yu-gi-oh-series-yu-gi-oh-arc-v-to-premiere-in-2014|title=New Yu-Gi-Oh!

*All of the music in the dub is rescored.
*The [[Pendulum Zone]] activation and point gauge sound effects are replaced with different ones than the originals.
*Dialog is added in some scenes to remove silence.

*[[Nico Smiley]]'s mustache was lengthened to avoid resemblance to Adolf Hitler.
*The "LDS" (Leo Duel School) sign is changed to "LID" (Leo Institute of Dueling) in order to avoid associations to the Mormon Church of Latter Day Saints (also abreviated LDS).

*Skirts and socks on female characters are lengthened to avoid any sexual implications.
*Most of the Japanese text is digitally painted out.

*In advertisements, every card shown is digitally painted out.
*Some monsters are edited to correspond with their ''TCG'' artworks.

===Deleted scenes===
