Yu-Gi-Oh OCG STORIES: Sentouhime-hen

Yu☆Gi☆Oh OCG STORIES: Sentouhime-hen gives an Official Card Game theme a focused manga identity, pairing fantasy conflict with mecha-inflected action and swordplay. Its female-led cast and central AI setting make this a distinctive entry for readers curious about how card-game worldbuilding can work beyond the duel table.

Finished at 19 chapters across three volumes, it offers a compact, action-forward read with an ensemble feel and a strong protective resolve at its center. Yu☆Gi☆Oh OCG players have an obvious point of entry, while readers who enjoy accessible battle manga, female protagonists, and science-fantasy settings can approach it without needing a long commitment.

Raye is the only surviving human in a world where she lives peacefully alongside a community of artificial intelligences she regards as family. Her quiet life is disrupted when an enemy nation launches an attack on their city.

Determined to protect the AI companions she loves, Raye awakens as the Sky Striker Ace known as the Sentouhime. The manga follows her struggle against the forces threatening her home, combining swordplay, advanced machinery, and card-battle-inspired fantasy conflict.

Yu☆Gi☆Oh OCG STORIES: Sentouhime-hen is a manga reinterpretation of a Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game theme. Naoto Miyoshi is credited with the manga, Shin Yoshida with the story, and Konami Digital Entertainment with planning cooperation. Shueisha published the work under its Jump Comics imprint, with the series appearing in V Jump.

The manga began publication in 2022 and concluded in 2023, with 19 chapters collected into three volumes. The first volume was released in print and digitally by Shueisha on December 2, 2022, and included the promotional card “Sage of Benevolence - Sierra.”

Yu☆Gi☆Oh OCG STORIES: Sentouhime-hen is a manga entry in the broader Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise, specifically the OCG STORIES line connected to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game. It is not an anime, film, remake, or direct continuation of a previously identified anime storyline. Instead, it gives the Sentouhime, also known as Sky Striker Ace, theme its own narrative treatment in manga form.

The work is best understood as a focused OCG-theme adaptation and interpretation rather than a franchise-wide starting point or a separate spin-off unrelated to the card game. Its story centers on Raye and the AI characters associated with her setting, while the official description presents the premise as a new manga interpretation of an OCG theme. The series was published from 2022 to 2023 and concluded with 19 chapters collected in three volumes. As an individual entry, it covers the Sentouhime-hen installment within OCG STORIES, rather than representing the complete Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise or every story connected to the card game.
