So i went in with 0 expectations and to my suprise: it was really fun. I started enjoying it before even realising and for the first time in forever i feel so addicted to a anime that i can barely wait a week for the next episode.
What overall caught me was propably the unique humour and the feeling of never knowing what comes next. I think we all learned after ZeXal and Arc-V to never judge a Yugioh series on his first childish loking style, and i see great potential for a good story in this. We didnt get many hints yet what is still to come but they surely let us puzzle out a lot.
What i also really enjoy is the characters. Most sidecharacters are over the top, similar to the first fights in ZeXal, and the main characters are very unique. I love how they made Yuuga basically a mix out of Yusei and Yuma which fits suprisingly well. And Ruke/Rock is at one hand a great comedic relieve and on the other hand has the potential to become a great duelist.
And i love the system of Rush Duels. I know its debated a lot, some hate it and some love it. But the amount of strategies you can use with this is insane. In a very short amount of time the Duel heats up entirely and you can defeat your opponent in 1 turn if you use the possibilities of rush duels correctly. Its a Duel without any breaks because you cant summon anymore or you dont have hand cards. i think we all know how annoying it can be when both players run out of handcards
So all in all: give it a try. i see a great future for this showand you shouldnt be too scared by the low ratings from many people. Like i said before, we had that with ZeXal and Arc-V as well ;) they will cool down once the story developes
