To all Yu-Gi-Oh! fans I am sending the people who created this show a letter to get them to redo the ending. Tell me what you think of it, we can’t let Arc-V end the way it did. Please help me, boycott anything that has to do with Yu-Gi-Oh! until the creators agree to change the ending by bringing Yuya & Yuzu’s counterparts back to life and restore Reira to his true self.
Dear Director Katsumi Ono
Hi my name is A.J. DeNofa, I live in Pennsylvania in America and I have been
watching the dub for Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V since February 2016 as well as the
Japanese version on
...
the internet. I want to say that I have never gotten so
emotionally attached to a show as I have with this one, but I don't mean
that in a good way. This series had the worst finale ever. Why? Why did you
end it without bring Yuya & Yuzu's counterparts back to life? I was looking
forward to that part the most. I had no idea you were going to just let them
die!
Unlike the previous series, it has been one to be continued after another
with this one. The suspense was literally killing me. I don't want to be
disrespectful or anything, but how could you guys end the show like this? I
thought that during Yuya & Reiji's duel Yuya was going to successfully get
Reira to smile and that was going to not only pacify Zarc, but also restore
Reira to his true age and bring all four girls back so we can see them smile
during the duel. Yuzu should've been there for Yuya's big duel with Reiji.
That was the part I was looking forward to the most all series long, Yuya's
dueling making the girls smile. Then after the duel Yuya's pendulum would
react to the girls' bracelets and that would separate the 4 boys back in to
their own bodies. Ever since Yuto was absorbed into Yuya, I always assumed
he and the other counterparts were going to be restored in the finale along
with Yuzu and Reira was going to regain his true age. I'm glad Yuya beat
Reiji and Yuzu came back, but their counterparts should've comeback as well.
They were such great characters. I see no upside to leaving both sets fused
together. You can't just leave their spirits inside their bodies that's
sick. Sure each set used to be one person, but we all wanted them to be
revived as individuals. They had dreams of their own and people who loved
them. I had such high hopes for this series. I had all these little happy
fantasies of what life would be like for them all in the end. I figured once
restored they would all return to their individual lives. Yuto & Ruri would
be in a relationship and return to Heartland with Shay (who has now lost his
sister and best friend). Yugo & Rin would patch up their duel runner, return
to Synchro and re-prepare for the next Friendship Cup. Yuri would turn over
a new leaf & leave Duel Academy to find himself. And Serena would either go
with Yuri or help Edo & Asuka fix things up in Duel Academy. This is
supposed to be a kids' show, by saying their spirits are inside Yuya & Yuzu
you are saying they are practically dead. Try explaining that to a child
when they ask what happened to the characters they've come to love. We
didn't even get to hear any last words from the girls since episode 129 and
Yugo & Yuto never got to say goodbye to the girls they love. We can't tell
what that was with them just smiling at each other as spirits. This whole
fusing them into one was forced upon them, they didn't get any say. And the
one responsible for taking their lives (being Leo Akaba) just gets to go
back to his family with everyone okay with this arrangement? No! It doesn't
make any sense. He needs to pay for his crimes and all 8 counterparts
should've been brought back. Ending it like this has completely killed by
love for this show. I can never watch another Yu-Gi-Oh episode again from
any series. It I'm not the only one who feels this way. You will see there
are quite a lot of people weren't too happy about the ending. Watch the
reviews and read the comments from these links!

I was also hoping you'd have 150 episodes, but you only did 148. You
could've had Yuya & his counterparts engage in a battle royal for 149 & 150.
I'm glad it's two more than Zexal had, but at least they had a good finale.
They brought everyone who seemingly died back just as they've done with the
first 3 series. That should've been done with this series. This series had
so much potential, but it has been filled with such disappointments. That
picture of the 8 counterparts together at the end of the show's 6th ending
theme gave the impression that they were going to take that shot when they
were all together. I was hoping once all the counterparts were revived and
Reira was back to his old self again it would be a happy ending for
everyone. You brought everyone back in the final episodes for the last 4
series, why didn't you do it for this series? Please tell me you aren't
really going to leave it like this. I didn't completely watch the last three
episodes, but when I saw the ending I was so distraught that all that
sadness went straight to my stomach. I've been sick since because I just
couldn't stop getting upset over how you ended the show without bringing
Yuto, Ruri, Yugo, Rin, Yuri, & Serena back to life and now I have this
constant need to vomit even though I haven't been able to. I had to be taken
to the hospital. I can hardly sleep or eat. I don't want to tell you how to
do your jobs, but please don't let Arc-V end this way. The way you ended it
was just wrong. We still don't even know how Yusho Sakaki ended up in the
Fusion Dimension and there are still holes in the counterparts' origins. And
I am not the only one who feels this way. This show was supposed to all be
about making people smile, but it's not making us fans smile.
I have 3 options on how you can fix this.
1. Redo the last episode. Have Yuya make Reira smile during his duel with
Reiji and when that pacifies Zarc's soul, Ray revives Yuzu, Serna, Rin, &
Ruri as individuals thus allowing them to watch the rest of the duel and
then after Yuya beats Reiji, their bracelets react to Yuya's pendulum and
their combined power brings Yuto, Yugo, & Yuri back to life allowing each
set of counterparts to reunite with each oither as well as their other loved
ones.
2. Create two more episodes into a special where Yuya & Yusho duel and
towards the end Yuya, Yuzu, and their counterparts finally separate.
3. Create a movie with part of the plot involving Yuya & Yuzu trying to
separate from their counterparts. Feature elements from the manga. Yuya &
Yuzu are seeking a way to remove their counterparts from their bodies and
revive them. They encounter a new enemy named Ren from the original
dimension who wants revenge against Zarc by destroying Yuya and tries to do
that by trying to get his hands on the infamous Genesis Omega Dragon.
Together with their friends and counterparts, Yuya & Yuzu must get the
dragon card first and stop his boss Eve.
4. Again, redo the last episode and create two more episodes in which Yuya
duels his counterparts in a battle royal. Or a tag battle royal with each of
the girls partnering with the guys. I came up with this:
Episode 148 - The episode starts with a flashback of when Yuya & Yuzu met as
babies when Yuya's mom placed Yuzu in his play pen with him saying she is
sure they are going to be the best of friends. Shorten the duel between Yuya
& Reiji to 15 minutes into the episode. After the first 11 minutes Yuya
finally makes Reira smile, thus Yuzu, Serena, Rin, & Ruri are brought back
from the Arc-V machine and Reira regains his actual age and they all enjoy
the rest of the duel. Once Yuya beats Declan the girls' bracelets separate
Yuya's counterparts from him. The boys have an emotional reunion with the
girls they love (except for Yuri & Serena as they don't know what they are
to each other). Yuya & Yuzu especially get all teary when they confess how
they really feel about each other. Yugo & Rin reunite and Rin apologizes to
Yugo for what she did to him and their Duel runner when she was possessed.
Yuto & Ruri reunite as well with Shay and their friends. Yuto & Yugo make
amends for their previous misunderstanding. Yusho & Yoko also have a teary
reunion. Also, Heartland City is fully restored. Barrett apologizes to
Serena for sending her back to Duel Academy. Leo Akaba apologizes to the
girls for what he did to them and accepts his daughter's fate. The girls
however let him know that Ray always had the ability to comeback by
her-self. The 4 girls just simply needed to be together and Ray could revive
her-self. They demonstrate by briefly becoming Ray together. Ray tells her
father the truth about her relationship with Zarc. How his real name was
Yukio Otum (Zarc was just a stage name he came up with) and they were in
love with each other. Ray didn't comeback because she knew Yukio's soul
would split into 4 and so she allowed the same to happen to her so she could
be with him and her counterparts could guide his like guardian angels so
they wouldn't turn evil. With Zarc's dark half gone, Ray announces that
Zuzu's bracelet will stop keeping Yuya and his counterparts away from each
other. Leo Akaba accepts the fate his daughter has chosen for herself and
they say goodbye to each other. Ray re-splits her-self back into Yuzu,
Serena, Rin, & Ruri. Yuri, now freed from Zarc's influence, sadly apologizes
himself to the girls and everyone else for the evil things he did. Yuri
decides to atone by leaving Duel Academy and give up dueling. Serena tries
to stop him, but can't get the words out as they don't any sort of
relationship. However, Yuya then challenges Yuri to another duel.
Episode 149 - In an attempt to get Yuri to properly smile through dueling,
Yuya challenges Yuri, Yugo, & Yuto to a battle royal and they accept. Each
of the girls standby the guys as they duel.
Episode 150 - The duel continues. In the final turn, Yuya uses Odd-Eyes
Absolute Dragon on Yuto, Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon Yugo, and Odd-Eyes
Vortex Dragon & Pendulum Dragon on Yuri. Yuya wins the duel and successfully
makes everyone smile. After the duel, Shingo tries to hit on Ruri and Rin
(both of whom have no idea who he is), but is met with disdain by Yuto &
Yugo. At the end, the counterparts say their goodbyes to each other and
return to each of their respective dimensions with the promise of seeing
each other again. Yuto & Ruri start dating with Shay's blessing. Now that
the tension between Tops and Commons is over, Yugo & Rin decide go on a long
trip together in their duel Runner with the hopes of participating in the
next Friendship cup. Yuri leaves Duel Academy (which is now being reformed
by Edo & Asuka) and goes on a journey of self-discovery with Serena joining
him to keep him company and also find her-self as well. The Doktor, Captain
Solo, Barrett, Jean-Michel Roger, & Sanders are all made to pay for their
crimes. Leo Akaba turns himself in for his war crimes. Sora decides to stay
with Yuya's family in the Pendulum dimension and resume attending the You
Show Duel School. Reira also starts going to You Show as he has made friends
with the kids there. After being rescued by Sora in a situation, Aura shifts
her love from Yuya to him since she met him the same day she met Yuya. As
for Yuya & Yuzu, the two of them go on their first date together and share
their first kiss with each other.
Epilogue
(this can be used for any of the 3 options)
We now fast forward 12 years later. Yusho Sakaki is now the Mayor of
Paradise City. Yuya has become a pro duelist and is now married to Yuzu with
a boy (of age 7) and a girl (of age 5) of their own. Yuzu and her children
head to the You Show Duel School where Yuya is at and also where their son
will be going. They meet up with Yugo & Rin who are also married now with
two boys of their own as well as Yuto & Ruri who also have kids. Serena is
also present. They all show up at You Show for the demonstration duel
between Yuya & Yusho. Yuya's wife and children cheer him on while he duels
his dad. The last shot is the picture of Yuya, Yuzu, Yuri, Serena, Yugo,
Rin, Yuto, & Ruri from the end of the show's third ending which they took
together before returning to their respective homes.
THEN END.
I'm sure to you guys what you had for the finale may seem like it was a good
ending but it isn't. The spirits of Yuya & Yuzu's counterparts reviving
inside of them is just not the same as having them actually revive as
themselves. All 8 of the counterparts should've revived when Zarc was
defeated and the last 10 episodes should've just focused on restoring Reira.
You guys took too long in getting Yuzu to come back and the reunion between
her and Yuya wasn't as emotional and romantic as I was hoping for. I'm a guy
and I usually don't get into romantic stuff. This season didn't do Yuzu
justice at all. She was only in like 18 episodes and didn't get to duel or
do anything heroic at all. I'm sure she and the other girls were like sick
of being the damsels in distress. I was hoping to see the guys have a
romantic reunion with the girls they love and see more action from Rin &
Ruri. After learning about them for 3 seasons we should've gotten more from
them than what was given. Yuya didn't even get to beat one major bad guy in
a dueltaining match. He didn't get to be that much of a hero. I get that
maybe you guys don't want to be predictable, but please be predictable! Give
your audience what they are expecting because it is what they want. Until
you guys change the ending or find some way to bring all 8 counterparts
back, I am boycotting anything to do with Yu-Gi-Oh and I'm going to
encourage others to do the same. That means no watching season 3's dub, no
VRAINS, playing the games, or watch any of the other previous series until
you grant this request. I don't mean to rant and sound like an angry person,
but I can't let you guys end ARC-V like this. Please don't let it end this
way. End it the right way.
Please give me a response by ether letter, email, or phone call. Preferrably
all in English
P.S., I am sending this letter in Japanese too just in case you can't read
English.
Sincerely,
