ARC - V " anime . It first aired in Japan on December 27 , 2015 and in Australia on November 16 , 2016 . It became available with official subtitles via Crunchyroll on February 21 , 2017 . Summary . In the Duel Palace the Topsiders cheer Yuya ' s name , while the Commons cheer for Crow . Outside in the streets of New Domino City , Sora looks up at the Capital Building , thinking that this is where Yuya is being kept . But then to his shock he hears Melissa Trail announcing that the first match of the semi - finals is Yuya vs . Crow , and he wonders why Yuya is Dueling while he should be held captive by Sector Security . In the Sector Security Headquarters , Jean - Michel Roget places a white knight down , admitting that he would have preferred having Yuya undertake the mind - altering surgery , but thanks to Declan Akaba ' s interference his plans were slightly disrupted . However Roget must have Yuya win this Duel with great flash and splendor ; he ' ll need Yuya to defeat Crow with such an awe - inspiring performance to ensure that all of New Domino City won ' t be able to take their eyes off him . While Yuya does that , Roget will have Sergey ( who is sitting inside a van outside the Capital Building with Sector Security officers and his left eye glowing red ) eliminate Declan and the High Council . Roget needs to have Zuzu Boyle and Celina in his hands after all . In order to accomplish this Roget has prepared a device in Yuya ' s helmet . Yuya picks the helmet up , unaware of the contents , and he thinks that Roget has restrained the Council and Declan so that he can take control of this world . As he walks down the corridor he muses that Roget is also after Zuzu and Celina , and Yuya is the only one who can do something about it . Roget thinks to himself that all of the pieces are in place , and he moves a white knight , telling Yuya to make it flashy for him , enough that it is fitting to celebrate Roget ' s success in gaining control over this dimension . Fireworks explode in the night sky as Melissa states that now it ' s time for the entrance of both players ; Yuya Sakaki and Crow Hogan . Yuya waits at the starting line on his Duel Runner as the crowd continues to cheer his and Crow ' s names , while Crow roars up on the Blackbird . Crow stops beside Yuya and retracts his visor , before apologizing to Yuya . He admits that he thought that Yuya and the Lancers were working with the Topsiders , but when Shay told Crow that Shay had to defeat Duel Academy for the kids back in his homeland Crow came to his senses ; if the Lancers are fighting such a huge enemy just like the Commons are , there ' s no way they ' d be working for the Topsiders . Yuya whispers Crow ' s name and Crow continues that he ' s going to win this Duel for the kids , no not just for them , but for the future of all of New Domino City as well . That ' s why Crow can ' t afford to lose this Duel . Yuya admits that it ' s the same for him ; he ' s made up his mind to win the Friendship Cup and bring smiles to everyone in New Domino City . Yuya will win this and defeat Jack so that he can tell people just what makes Dueling wonderful . He tightens his hand on his accelerator , lamenting that right now he can ' t do that . Crow is surprised by the statement and he asks why not . Yuya explains that Declan and the Council are currently being held captive by Sector Security . Crow is shocked to learn that Yuya ' s comrades have been captured . Yuya explains Roget is trying to take over New Domino City . Crow is shocked that the Director of Sector Security is trying to rule New Domino City , and he laments that if Sector Security become the top power in New Domino City then the Commons will be further oppressed . Yuya states that that ' s why he has to stop Roget , and so Yuya needs Crow to do something for him . Crow grins and he lowers his visor , reassuring Yuya that he doesn ' t know what Yuya ' s plan is , but he can leave it to Crow . Meanwhile Yugo speeds down the streets and he screeches to a halt at a dead end . He laments that he can ' t find Yuri anywhere and wonders where he could have gone . In another street , Moon Shadow carries Celina on his back while Riley walks beside them , while in the Capital Building Declan watches the beginning of Yuya and Crow ' s Duel . Melissa declares that it ' s finally time for the beginning of their Night Duel as she stands in her helicopter . She compares the night ' s stage for the match as jewels and gems scattered form an overturned treasure box as the helicopter hovers above the arena . Below her , Sora rushes up the stairs and muses to himself that something must have happened , otherwise Yuya wouldn ' t be allowed to Duel . He sees Melissa ' s helicopter alighting above him , and runs towards it , vowing to save Yuya and asking Zuzu to wait for him . With that Sora leaps into the air and snags onto the helicopter ' s wheel as it lifts off . Melissa declares , " Action Field : On ! Field Spell : Crossover Acceleration ! " and the purple light suffuses the city . Crow and Yuya ' s Duel Runners declare , " Duel Mode : On , Autopilot : Standby " and the holographic counter appears . As Jack watches the countdown , Melissa declares " Turbo Duel … Acceleration ! " and Crow and Yuya start off with a cry of " Duel ! " Melissa states that both Duelists started at almost the same time , and reiterates that the first player out of the Duel Palace will take the first turn . She wonders who it will be , and the two Runners dip into the exit from the Duel Palace . Crow is the first to emerge , as Melissa declares . Crow declares his turn . He Summons " Blackwing - Bora the Spear " and then Set s a card , ending his turn . He muses that Roget is trying to take over New Domino City , and wonders whether this is why their semi - final match began so soon . In that case Crow has no reason to go along with it . Yuya muses that Roget is originally from Duel Academy , and he thinks that he can ' t imagine a city being controlled by someone who rules a class - driven society with brute force to become peaceful . As Crow and Yuya move along a corner , Crow thinks that the future isn ' t something given to you , but something one has to grasp with their own hands . That ' s why he ' s decided that he ' ll help Yuya . He cheerfully suggests to Yuya that they have a real match after they get control of the future that they want , and Yuya agrees that it ' s a promise . Crow tells Yuya to go ahead and make it flashy . Yuya moves his Runner forwards and he cheers " LADIES AND GENTLEMEN ! " He states that in this night sky of the city overflowing with light , they will be able to feat their eyes on a beautiful flower of entertainment that will bloom right before them . He declares his turn and draws " Amazing Pendulum " , before telling the crowd to enjoy this beautiful and energetic dance . He claims that he ' s about to activate the Quick - Play Spell Card " Hippo Carnival " , but then he excuses himself and apologizes . He suggests that they top that with " Super Hippo Carnival " , which Special Summon s " Performapal Hip Hippo " from his hand and then Special Summons as many " Hippo Token s " as possible to his field . He tells the hippos to come forth , and four " Hippo Tokens " appear . Yuya tells them to dance , and the five hippo monsters dance above him . He asks the crowd what they think , and states that that was the Hippo Dancers of the Super Hippo Carnival . Yuya tells the crowd to please enjoy the entrancing dance of these five hippos to their hearts ' content . The crowd cheers and Melissa praises Yuya ' s amazing leading play ; he ' s captured the hearts of the audience with his monsters ' dance . Crow laughs that he won ' t let Yuya hog all the spotlight . He activates the Trap Card , " Blackwing - Festival " , which Special Summons three " Blackwing Token s " to his field since his opponent Special Summoned a monster . Three trumpet - shaped tokens appear on the field and Crow encourages them to dance with the hippos . Melissa is surprised , and she irritably asks if the two of them are just messing around . She protests that this is an official Friendship Cup match and the entirety of New Domino City is watching , so they should take this seriously . Crow replies that they aren ' t messing around but are in fact completely serious . He thinks that it ' s about time to do it , and Yuya thanks Crow and states that he ' s in Crow ' s debt in his head as they come within view of the Capital Building . Yuya accelerates , and Crow muses that while one can ' t stop a Duel Runner on autopilot , they can simply jump off it . He urges Yuya to jump and go to his friends and their future . But Roget states that he won ' t let Yuya go anywhere ; he ' s going to work as Roget ' s pawn . He touches a control on his screen and the device in Yuya ' s helmet shocks him , causing Yuya to scream in pain . Yuya clutches his head and wonders what that was . Watching the Duel , Roget muses that Yuya ' s helmet contains a device that sends electrical shocks to the brain . After countless experiments Roget has discovered that stimulating a certain part of the brain increases the aggressiveness of a subject . They didn ' t have time to perform proper brain surgery , but this is more than sufficient to have Yuya provide a flashy Duel . Roget increases the power of the device , telling Yuya to show him a Duel that will make it impossible for all of New Domino City to keep their eyes off Yuya . The device activates again and Yuya screams , clutching his head in his hands . Behind him , Crow continues to urge Yuya to jump off his Duel Runner . But Yuya is in too much pain to move , and the Duel Runners pass the Capital Building – missing their chance . Crow asks why Yuya won ' t go , aren ' t his friends captured , did Yuya get cold feet ? Then he gasps , and he asks Yuya not to tell him . Yuya just grits his teeth and groans in pain . Roget states that whatever kind of person Yuya may be , he always has his primal instincts . He tells Yuya to call forth to it , bring it to the surface , and he rises from his chair , telling the ferocious power that lies dormant in Yuya to awaken . Roget increases the device to maximum output , telling Yuya to release that power and rampage freely . Yuya howls in agony , and glowing red eyes open within his own as he sees a vision of a city being destroyed . On the boat where he escaped from Yugo , Yuri feels a pain in his chest and he gasps . Yugo also feels the sensation , stopping his Duel Runner and wondering what is going on . He sees his Duel Disk glowing and takes out the " Clear Wing Synchro Dragon " card from his Extra Deck to see it glowing . In another street , Moon is still carrying Celina when her bracelet begins resonating , to everyone ' s surprise . In the Underground Labor Facility , Frank mutters that Moon said to hide themselves for the time being , but how long will they have to sort through the rubbish ? Tarren tells him not to complain ; Shinji and Shay are here too ; it ' s a given that they ' re all going to break out eventually . Amanda adds that Sora promised to bring Yuya back as well , so that ' s got to be the signal . She turns to Zuzu for confirmation , but Zuzu is looking at her own bracelet in surprise as it resonates like Celina ' s is . Amanda and Tanner ask why the bracelet is glowing and Zuzu admits that she doesn ' t know . She protests that it can ' t be , but something must be happening to Yuya . Yuya continues to clutch his head in his hands as the Duel Runners continue down the highway , and then he arches his back with a scream . Yuri screams in agony as his eyes glow purple and he awakens for the first time , and Yugo howls as well as his eyes glow aqua . Yuya lets his head fall forwards with his irises glowing red . Crow asks Yuya what is wrong , but Yuya activates the Spell Card " Catastrophe Draw " instead of responding , destroying his five hippo monsters to draw two cards . Darkness flows freely from Yuya as Yuri and Yugo mirror his actions , drawing random cards of their own . Yuya uses the Scale 3 " Xiangke Magician " and the Scale 8 " Xiangsheng Magician " to Set the Pendulum Scale . Yuya explains that he can now simultaneously Summon monsters from Level s 4 to 7 . Yuri chants , " Swing , pendulum of the soul ! " and Yugo chants , " Draw an arc of light across the aether ! " All of them declare , " Pendulum Summon ! " and Yuya chants " Come forth , my monster servant ! " Yuri chants , " With your heroic and dichromatic eyes … " and Yugo finishes " Odd - Eyes Pendulum Dragon ! " Yuya activates the Pendulum Effect of " Xiangsheng Magician " to make one monster on the field the same as another monster . He increases the Level of " Bora " to 7 , the same as the Level of " Odd - Eyes " , much to Crow ' s shock . Yuya declares his Battle Phase , and Yuri tells " Odd - Eyes Pendulum Dragon " to go , as Yugo orders it to attack " Blackwing - Bora the Spear " . Yuya chants , " Odd - Eyes ! With your dichromatic eyes lay waste to all you see before you ! Spiral Flame Strike ! " " Odd - Eyes " blasts a plume of crimson flames at " Bora " , enveloping the Winged Beast as it groans in pain . Crow protests that this is different to what they had planned , but Yuya and Yuri declare the effect of " Odd - Eyes Pendulum Dragon " . Yugo and Yuya explain that battle damage when it attacks a Level 5 or higher monster is doubled , and all three of them shout " Reaction Force ! " as the orange fire is added to the crimson and " Bora " is destroyed , reducing Crow to 2400 LP . Melissa cheers the 1600 damage in an instant , noting that this was why Yuya increased the Level of " Bora " . She notes that the switch from a carefree atmosphere to a hard battle style is likely two sides of the coin of Yuya ' s entertainment . Completely missing the point , Melissa apologizes for getting mad without taking the time to read ahead . Yuya ends his turn . Roget laughs and praises Yuya for showing Roget a reaction far greater than he expected . He tells Yuya to make these Duels more exciting just like that . Crow angrily asks Yuya if he was going to rescue his comrades . He muses that if Yuya led him on like this then he must really be in league with the Topsiders . He declares his turn and draws , vowing not to show mercy if Yuya did all of this just to trick him . He Summons " Blackwing - Calima the Haze " from his hand , and then since he controls a " Blackwing " monster he Special Summons the Tuner monster " Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind " from his hand . He tunes the Level 4 " Calima the Haze " with the Level 3 " Gale the Whirlwind " and he chants " Spread your pitch - black wings and storm forth in tandem with the rising thunder ! Slash apart the lightning ! Synchro Summon ! Cascade ! Assault Blackwing - Raikiri the Rain Shower ! " Crow activates the effect of " Raikiri " , destroying a card Yuya controls for each " Blackwing " monster Crow controls . He declares that Yuya ' s field is wide open as " Raikiri " releases three slashes of light that destroy " Odd - Eyes " , " Xiangke Magician " and " Xiangsheng Magician " . Then Crow attacks directly with " Raikiri " , and as the strike reduces Yuya to 1400 LP he , Yuri and Yugo grit their teeth in pain . Melissa praises Crow ' s counterattack ; Yuya lost all the cards on his field and took a huge hit of 2600 damage . Crow angrily asks if Yuya has learnt his lesson yet , before he Sets two cards to end his turn . Yuya growls in rage ; the darkness he is exuding now covering his Duel Runner as well . Celina and Zuzu , each with their separate groups of friends , watch their bracelets resonating . Up in the air , Sora watches in concern from the wheel of Melissa ' s helicopter . Yuya , Yuri , Yugo , and now even Yuto declare their turn and draw , and Sora gasps in shock as he remembers his Duel with Yuto and observes in surprise that just for an instant , Yuya ' s face reminded him of Yuto ' s and he wonders why . Yuya activates the Spell Card " Amazing Pendulum " from his hand ; he has no cards in his Pendulum Zone s he can add two Pendulum Monster s from his Extra Deck to his hand . He returns " Xiangke Magician " and " Xiangsheng Magician " to his hand and then Sets them again , allowing him to simultaneously Summon monsters from Levels 4 to 7 . He declares " Pendulum Summon ! " and Yuri chants " Revive from my Extra Deck ! Odd - Eyes Pendulum Dragon ! " Yugo adds that he also Pendulum Summons " Performapal Longphone Bull " from his hand . " Longphone Bull ' s " horn rings like a phone as Yuya explains that he can add a " Performapal " monster with 1000 or less ATK from his Deck to his hand , and he adds " Performapal Skeeter Skimmer " to his hand before Summoning it . Yuri and Yugo then overlay the Level 4 " Longphone Bull " and " Skeeter Skimmer " , and Yuya chants " Fangs formed from pitch - black darkness ! " while Yuto chants , " Rise up against the foolish oppression ! Descend now ! " All four counterparts declare " Xyz Summon ! " and Yuya chants , " Appear now ! Rank 4 ! Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon ! " Sora gasps that Yuya has even Summoned Yuto ' s dragon and he wonders if that is even really Yuya Dueling right now , as images of Yuya ' s counterparts appear next to him , their eyes all glowing .
