Yeah. I think it was some thread where people kept saying that Konami wouldn't make another series because they're 'out of ideas' or something stupid like that. Anyway, the next show better have card games on fighter planes with Itano Circus action.

Well, if they do decide to scrap 5Ds, it had a good run, one of the better series as a whole. As for new ideas of how to play card games...

CARD GAMES ON...STEALTH FIGHTERS!!!
I mean come on Dueling and people blowing up other people...

CARD GAMES ON...HOVERCRAFTS!!!
Not as exciting, but interesting nonetheless...

CARD GAMES ON...SUBMARINES!!!
Card games underwater, might be interesting...

CARD GAMES ON...SPACE SHIPS!!!
Come on, there must be dueling on other planets, plus space battles...

The main character is BALD, uses his left hand over his right, doesn't gain unnatural powers and has friends that aren't completely usesless (5Ds went away from that so it may not be new).

His deck would be the -removed due to spoilers- which are completely original and not broken.

And people now don't have to have a CCG over everything -insert dramatic gopher-

Main character is named Tsukumo Yuma. Apparently, the "X" in the title is silent, so it would be pronounced like "Zeal".


The main character's name is Tsukumo Yuma. The anime and manga will happen simultaneously. The story will unfold as Yuma meets up with the white spirit guy, Astral, apparently.

In 5D's, you needed a license to Turbo Duel (at least for the D-Wheel). This new kid looks way too young to drive obviously. So unless they plan on doing that stupid skateboard crap all series long, I would assume we won't see too many lame turbo duels.

I already mentioned that part =/

So Yuma looks like he has 2 deck boxes (the obvious one on the side, and the white belt buckle). The white one looks smaller so it could probably be there for Synchros/ Fusions.

He'll prob end up with a ridiculously weird deck .-. ... and.. Idk about him being like a Joey.. I think he sort of seems like Jaden and Yusei fused .-. (or is it Yugi and Yusei, I forget XD) ... like someone already mentioned (I think .-.) ....... but.... so... it'll be weird x3.. for sure :p... but yet somehow powerful =O... like the others ; w;... o.o

Im going to give me thought on his gear. To see if we can predict on some sort of new dueling style.
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g58/Dark_Evangel666/558749282010121408162402.jpg

Lets see....We have another damn right handed character...with some sort of badass looking duel disc thingy on his left arm. He is also wearing a scouter. My thoughts are that the scouter counts LP and whatnot, while the wrist thingy is the field? Two deck boxes. Well...They could actually have given a spot for the extra deck on these characters for once...Wierd thought, but that box on his belt looks smaller then the other one. Maybe some new sort of a card type? That necklace he is wearing appears under the title of the show. Reincarnation of Melenium objects? Girl's not a duelist. Blue haired guy is one though. Yuma is wearing a thing on his right wrist, possibly meant for duels or just bad fashion.

http://livedoor.blogimg.jp/otanews/imgs/8/2/826b7c51.jpg

Looking at this picture, we get another view of the duel disc. The deck compartment has a wierd zone, and his deck is like...a hundred cards (Unless he uses sleeves O.o.

Here I have somthing from a site I found with this pic. New summoning mechanic!

" The new concept here is the Excess Summon mechanism, which requires 2 monsters with the same level. Excess Summon does not send monsters used to the graveyard, rather the new card becomes 'overlayed'.The concept itself it still undetermined. More will be provided once information comes through. However. thanks do go to the team at janime and BBS who have translated the material. "

I feel that that little belt buckle deck holster may contain his "Excess Monsters". How I see it, you put the two materials under the monster. The summoning is apperently called an "Exceed Summon"

Yugioh wikia has minor info on the mechanic. But we know of one excess monster so far (or, the wikia does)

Aero Shark. This card is used by the character Ryoga (Blue guy)

Astral is a character who starts the "new legend". God hope is doesn't involve friendship...

Thats all I know. The main characters phrase is somthing along the lines of "Fire it Up". So some sort of a fire based deck I imagine.

In Yu-gi-oh and GX fusions were the main monsters.
So hopefully Zexal should continue with Synchros.

Well, Fusions weren't that big in the original, i was more effect Monsters than anything. I imagine that Synchros will take a back seat, like Fusions did in 5Ds. They'll still be there, but they won't be the main focus...

I never took any formal lessons in Japanese, but Yugioh is pretty easy to understand, since it's a kids' show, with relatively basic vocabulary, and about half of the dialogue is game terminology.

StarWolfJR

Honestly, I think they should stop and give the anime a rest for a while. It's eventually gonna get to the point where:

A) They're going to run out of original ideas for it.

B) They will sooner or later switch to a new art style that will not be as visually appealing.

If they don't slow down, Zexal just might end up a yu-gi-oh version of Beyblade Metal Fusion (which in my opinion is the worst in the beyblade series).

I agree, I mean they use "overlay", really?!?! Their effects had better kick some a** or they won't be used, although I do foresee more usage of Summoner Monk for Level 8's...

monk could get banned if these things have broken effects

or bring him to 3 and ruin the game... but only if these things have amazing effects

I agree, if the Lv 8 Excess are too broken, then wow... But Monk at three, no freakin way, he's just fine at 1...

5D's>ALL.
And let's hope this series has good OP's and ED's. That's one of the main reasons I watch teh yugiohz.

Origional series of yugiioh, (duelist kingdom, battle city, orichlcos), we're awsome. However, gx was terrible, 5ds started off ok, then got incredibly boring.

Let's hope this isn't all stupid futeristic stuff, or kiddy.

Hm, maybe the show will be CG? The protagonist looks like a monkey who might break dance at any given moment. Strange.


The king foreplay ☆ ☆ Yu ZEXAL main theme of the "challenge" is. Tsukumo 遊馬 the protagonist, 13-year-old junior. Impulsive and intuitive move, but a bit clumsy boy carelessly misread a lot. However, fear of failure, even harder than giving up fight any challenge to convey to children through such a character. 遊馬 the habit of saying, "I blew it Bing, my!" It's for this. 遊馬's sidekick is such a different world came from the astral. http://g101design.net/talkpark/Smileys/tpkTwo/facepalm.gifhttp://animeanime.jp/news/archives/2010/12/zeaxl.html

Anyways, according to this video, you're going to duel on skyscrapers, all while being possessed by a Zora like creature. http://ani.tv/yugioh-zexal/

My hunch is that Excess Monsters are something like this...

"This card cannot be normal Summoned or set. This card can only be Special Summoned by Overlaying 2 or more Monsters of the same level with the same Type and Attribute as this card, whose total level equals this card's. [...]"

Or you could just look it up on Yugioh wikia (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Excess_Summon)

Honestly, I think they should stop and give the anime a rest for a while. It's eventually gonna get to the point where:

A) They're going to run out of original ideas for it.

B) They will sooner or later switch to a new art style that will not be as visually appealing.

If they don't slow down, Zexal just might end up a yu-gi-oh version of Beyblade Metal Fusion (which in my opinion is the worst in the beyblade series).

I agree somewhat, they shouldn't stop the series just take it slower and draw more things out like in the original yu-gi-oh.

Zexal looks terrible.

They should remake Duel Monsters.

Have KyoAni Produce it for lulz

It looks like it's going to be a cross between GX and 5Ds, GX was ok, 5Ds was quite good once I got into it, the turbo duels were a big downside to it but I quite enjoyed 5Ds mainly because of how good Yusei was. Zexal's characters look young, which is probably a good idea for attracting the younger generation into yugioh, as for the older generation, hopefully it wont be too young.
I'm glad to hear about Zexal though, when I heard GX was going to be the last but then 5Ds was eventually made, I thought yugioh would die once 5Ds had finished, with Zexal it keeps the game alive and yep, more cards!
Exceed Summon looks interesting, the fact that it uses Exceed Monsters from the Deck not the Extra Deck means it wont flood the game like Synchros have because of the main deck card limit. I hope Synchros are still used a lot but that they take a back seat, maybe one character could have their deck based on them. It would be nice to see more Ritual Monsters as they never really went anywhere, new Ritual Monsters and maybe Ritual Spells that have more effects than just Ritual Summoning alone.

Wikia doesn't have exact details yet, but by the looks of it you'll be able to summon Excess Monsters from the Extra Deck by Overlaying 2 generic monsters of the same level. ><

I think you have to draw it from the deck then Excess summon, it would be too powerful otherwise unless you were limited to 3 excess monsters or something as you don't need tuners.

I may be a huge fan of GX, and I appreciate 5Ds even if I never personally got into it, but I hate what I've seen of Zexal so far. It just looks like my least favorite parts of all the shows combined. Plus it makes me even more afraid that my precious heroes will die, but that part is just me being greedy
