Yu☆Gi☆Oh! Go Rush!!

After inheriting the company from their parents, siblings Yuuhi and Yuamu Oudou have started to work at Ultraterrestrial Trouble Solutions, an organization that hunts aliens. Although they have never encountered aliens before, Yuuhi is desperate to meet one as he believes that an alien has stolen his important item called the "Earthdamar."

One day, while searching for extraterrestrial creatures, Yuuhi and Yuamu find a strange spot in the forest where many trees have fallen, forming a scenery similar to a crop circle. As they venture further, they discover a mysterious spaceship and enter it out of curiosity. To their surprise, they come across Yudias Velgear, an alien from the Velgear Star Cluster. As it turns out, Yudias is seeking to learn about Rush Duel—a card game popular among elementary school students—as he believes that it will save his home from a long war.

With the siblings agreeing to teach Yudias about Rush Duel, they eventually realize that their first contact with an alien may not be a random coincidence.

Preliminary (10/? eps)

this is my first reviews, i think this show still overhated because many of the yu-gi-oh player/fans expect an anime of the original series that use more unused/new archetype, new character, new method, or something else. but i must say if they continue to name some new summoning method again, that will ruin the game because the game already became a very complicated being, that a newbie/new player must learn how to play, read over 10k card effect, learn to know some summoning method, how to play the selected archetype, etc. that is too much for a newbie/ new player/ a player just play for ... fun/a passerby to swallows unless they really want to learn.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
so this continuation of rush duel is not so continuation of the prequel, idk if there will be a flashback of a scene or plot continuation from yu-gi-oh sevens or not, but so far is no.
the only connection is some of the side character in sevens is comeback but somehow all the main cast already have the decendant and the real main cast is gone, i'm hoping there will be some plot continuation from sevens tho.
when i watch this, i feel the enjoyment of fresh series just like the prequel, sevens. so far the story still basic/knowing/learning phase, but i think it will starting a real plot in the episode 10.
of course i didn't set my expectation so/too high so i still can get the enjoyment, all i do is just watch the show like normally i do.
----------------------------------------------------------------
story: 7
in my opinion, they seemly have some fresh idea, because i fell this show is really different than before. they not just focus on duel, there are some episode that the charater didn't duel at all. and for some reason i rather like this one that the first part of zexal because somehow i hate that part. for this show until this point (episode 10) i think comedy will fit the category
and as for the learning part on the story, i found it really interesting too see a how a new player learning things thats why i think this more to comedy in my opinion. and btw this go rush take place 50 years after the sevens ending
---------------------------------
art: 5
the art is standard as normal anime in my opinion, its neither bad nor good, it just standard as other anime, but it still enjoyable in my opinion
---------------------------------
sound: 5
the sound is not bad either, but it lack of punch/ its just standard good in my opinion
---------------------------------
Character: 6.5
the character for me is quite interesting and they have some potential
Yuuhi: one of our main character, and one of the oudou twins, son of yuuga (our main character of sevens) and i expect asana as their mother, but idk. he has something named "earthdamar' i don't know what it is, but i think it will be the problem source in the first arc i think. if you see on the episode 10, you will know what i mean. his deck is machine deck, a junk like deck like yusei's one

Yuamu: one of our main character, and one of the oudou twins, daughter of yuuga (our main character of sevens), for the dueling skills, she said she is better than yuuhi. she is the president of an organization called UTS, some organization that supposedly research things about alien and stuff and help the citizen all the trouble that connected to alien/supranatural things (in the episode 8 they said she still 5th grader, what!?), her deck are cyberse + dragon, things that connected to cyber/tech things so something like yusaku does. but i get the feeling that she is better than yuuhi

Yudias: an alien main cast just like zexal, but unlike zexal, he is human alien, not pure alien like astral, so human from other planet. he didn't know anything about yu-gi-oh, dueling and stuff, he even don't know how to open a booster pack. but his archetype is making me curious about the series. what will the creator will do with the new type-galaxy. but seeing him really curious about thing is the source of comedy i think, and he is most interesting character above the other, like when his eyes spining to see washing machine and ended up laser beaming the washing machine. his curiosity and environment adaptation is what make me stay to watch go rush

manabu: a sougetsu son so he is gakuto's son, i wonder who is he ended up with. but rather than countinuing using warrior like his father, he using pyro and fire based and he not continuing the sougetsu style, it was explained in the episode 9. so i think he will have interesting character development in the future because of his past.

and there's some other comeback cast like omae no ushiro, the yaki guy and sushi girl, and many other. we can even see atachi's decendant, manya, that using loli dian keto as ace. and there's galient tazaki, one of asana's team member that became UTS worker too and UTS was build by Yuuga and he is something like one of the highest ranking staff that so close with yuamu, so this make me believe that yuuga is ended up with asana and make me curious too, what happen to the main cast of sevens and why they are disappear just like that because i believe the are not dead yet even if 50 years already passed.
-----------------------------------
enjoyment: 8
in my opinion the curiosity of what happen in the sevens ending and after sevens end is what make me keep the enjoyment plus the new alien main cast make things more enjoyable for me because of his "first time in earth" thing
-----------------------------------
overall: 7
in my opinion, so far is good, but still standard, but they have some potential as a series in my opinion and the curiosity of what happen adding the point too. but still i found this anime is enjoyable as a light anime.

Preliminary (52/? eps)

Unfortunately, due to the prejudices surrounding the Bridge-era Yu-Gi-Oh, many people are missing out on such a great show. The problem that may set people back from watching it is the focus on comedy and pacing, but if you are here I presume you already have experience with Sevens. When the plot gets going, it becomes so good. Seriously. And it shows especially from episode 20 and even more with the end of the first season, which just aired recently.

The beauty of Go Rush is how it raises so many questions, and throughout the arcs, everything starts making sense in a way. The writers ... are doing a fantastic job at not forgetting plot points, and making sure that the secondary/filler characters make a quick reappearance and aid in the plot. It’s also amazing how they are expanding the lore by conencting the previous series, which no other anime in the franchise ever did (at least successfully), but no spoilers.

Each plot point is resolved so well that it doesn't feel like "lol yeah let's now move on", but you can see how the characters grow throughout the anime. Kinda reminds me of Gurren Lagann (particularly the opening during the battles' climax!) but that's too much of a strech haha. Speaking of music, the anime is blessed thanks to Frederic and Yusuke Saeki, and we are also getting a new opening by Bradio!

One big downside is the animation. Unfortunately sakuga is almost nonexistent, but some episodes visually are impressive. Covid, the anime airing weekly, the current state of the industry, and Bridge animating also Shaman King impact a lot the production. Thankfully, the great story makes up for it.

Should you watch Go Rush? Yes, if you enjoyed Sevens.

If you ever wanted a child-friendly Yu-Gi-Oh! TV show for your 6 year old, I have found the perfect show for you. It's a show that continues with Rush Duels from the Sevens series, so if that wasn't to your liking, you won't like this any more than that. Also, the characters have a nice design, but the backgrounds are very simplistic, so I wonder just how much budget this show really has.
The first few episodes assume you've never heard of Yu-Gi-Oh! and explain every small rule and detail about how to play, so the duels are simply summon monsters to ram into each other. ... It's actually pretty insulting how much it force feeds you information you should already know. It's so slow, magic and trap cards aren't explained until the 3rd episode; and I don't think I can't watch anymore than that.
Overall, this is a huge disappointment if you're a Yu-Gi-Oh! fan; so if you want to watch something good, try 5Ds, Zexal, or the original.
