Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS

In a bustling city ruled by the corporate giant Goha Enterprises, Yuga Ohdo is an energetic dreamer who just wants to share Rush Dueling with every Duelist he meets. The city imposes strict controls on how duels are fought, with Goha pulling the strings and using its influence to crush any challenge to the status quo. Yuga refuses to be silenced, believing that a game can stand against oppression and still be fun. He gathers a crew of friends who see the same spark in his vision, and together they bite back at the rules with humor, stubborn optimism, and a taste for mischief. The road ahead promises big challenges and bigger laughs.
