From what I've heard of the show myself, Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V's Japanese raw is much better than the dub. It would be nice if the show could be picked up for streaming with subs.

I know it finished on Hulu. That's why I laughed at asking if it did on Nicktoons because I was confident it didn't. lol
I'll assume you've never watched Yugioh in japanese ever because that shouldn't even worth giving a thought. lol
Darn. This would've been the perfect article for you to be first in. |

I'm just wondering if the quality writing will get through with this dub.

I still don't like "Swing Into Action" catchphrase, it would have been nice if they kept the original one. About time on US huh?

I've watched the first two episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V and I didn't particularly enjoy it I prefer the Main character to be a bit more serious like in the original Yu-Gi-Oh! and 5Ds.

What shouldn't be worth giving a thought? The Japanese Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc V is better than the English Arc-V. I didn't care enough to watch Zexal, so I don't know which is better. I have watched a little bit of 5D's in Japanese too, and I also think the Japanese voices fit the characters better than the English voices. I've only seen GX in English, so that's my only frame of reference so I can't compare it to the Japanese. The original I obviously watched in English. I love Dan Green's voice. I did try to re-watch the original series in Japanese, but it's not the voices I used to, so it's just strange (if this is what you meant, then yes I agree, but don't apply this to Arc-V) |

But that's the whole franchise's schtick: That the card game really IS a big deal and has strange powers that everyone wants to have a piece of. It appeals very well to kids and their wishes.
Yu-Gi-Oh! itself is one big ad for the card game. Well, it didn't begin that way, but it turned into that. |

From "IAmA Pokémon Voice Actor, LGBT Organizer and the Director of RootsCamp, Jamie McGonnigal AMA", I asked Jamie why 5D's didn't air on TV or Hulu.
He said that actors are far down the line to the point that they rarely hear about the politics or the behind-the-scenes stuff stuff. He added that his character was set up to be kind of a big character and then those characters kind of disappeared. He added that it was fun while it lasted. Reddit user bacondevil gave an explanation:
This same explanation likely applied to GX as well. In addition, I remember hearing on YT video of a Sean Schemmel where someone mentioned his GX character. He said that 4Kids never licensed the final season. |

First off all, isn't any anime just a big ad for its manga, light novel, visual novel, or game source? Secondly, to use your word, even 'ads' have plots, and Arc-V's plot is really interesting and intricate. Thirdly, as for being an 'ad'; I don't know how much you know of the current card game yourself, but the amount of cards in print in the US are much more than those featured in the show. So the anime is more of an ad for the game itself, and not so much the cards themselves. Either way, the 90th episode of Arc-V aired this past weekend, so if the cards bring in enough money for Konami to keep sponsoring an anime, why not? |

Of course. Just because a show is an advertisement for the merchandise (in this case, the card game) doesn't mean it has to be bad, which was my original intent (a reply to a statement implying that an "ad for a card game" is inherently negative). If you talk to people who grew up in the 80's, you'll find a lot of fondness for shows like Transformers Generation 1 and Captain Planet, which were obviously meant to sell toys. Clearly, they enjoyed the stories for those shows too.

Looks like "Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V" is finally coming to America. Hopefully,Nicktoons will try to finish the whole thing,unlike what they did with "Zexal." I have no idea how it ended. Hopefully,they will here.

and this is here why no one really cares about the series unless your a 7-12 yr old boy. why? cause konami/4k media is using the same 4kids style editing when it comes to this series. so while nicktoons will be celebrating that they got this series from the recycle pile, it will do dead squat to their ratings ever since korra finished its run a year ago and instead, just skip the broadcast and just watch the fansubs. sure its main target is for american kids, however for the rest of us otakus,especially those that like dubs and like TCG based series, just skip this mess of a franchise and watch series like Selector Infected WIXOSS & Selector Spread WIXOSS their a hell of a lot better in the TCG based anime genre series than the crappy ass kids style editing in series like Arc V and Cardfight Vanguard. |
