Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V

Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V stands out as a compact manga entry in the broader Yu-Gi-Oh! world, pairing action-fantasy energy with the series' signature card battles. Its 45 chapters across seven volumes make it a focused way to experience this particular interpretation without committing to a long television run.

Readers who enjoy shounen rivalry, dramatic duels, and stories where performance and competition share the spotlight may find it especially approachable. The premise also gives the work an inviting human angle, with a struggling Duel school and a mysterious duelist at its center.

Yuzu Hiiragi and her father run a Dueling school that is struggling to attract students. Yuzu hopes a remarkable teacher can restore the school's reputation and bring new life to their lessons.

Her hopes turn toward Phantom, a mysterious rogue Duelist whose appearance draws the attention of Leo Corporation's special forces. As Phantom becomes entangled with the corporation, Yuzu and those around her are pulled into a conflict where Dueling carries consequences beyond the school.

Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V is a Japanese television anime produced by TV Tokyo and NAS, with animation by Gallop. It aired on TV Tokyo from April 6, 2014, through March 26, 2017. NAS held the series in Japan, while Konami Cross Media NY handled licensing outside Japan, with the international release beginning in 2015.

A separate manga adaptation, illustrated by Naohito Miyoshi, began serialization in Shueisha's V Jump magazine in August 2015. Its publication overlapped with the anime's Japanese broadcast and should not be treated as the same format as the television series.

This entry is the manga adaptation associated with Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V, rather than the separately released television anime. It is a completed work of 45 chapters collected in seven volumes, with serialization beginning in 2015. Within the wider Yu-Gi-Oh! line, Arc-V is an anime-era spin-off that followed Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal, while this manga provides its own print edition of that Arc-V installment.

As a result, this page should be read as an individual manga entry, not as a record for the entire Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise or for every version of Arc-V. It is not the franchise's beginning, and it is not presented as a sequel to a previous manga series in this record. Its place is that of a manga adaptation connected to a distinct television series, with the shared Arc-V title identifying the relationship while the formats remain separate.
