Line 38:
* [[The Comically Serious]]:When Kusanagi and Ai teases him over his lack of social skills with womens Yusaku doesnt react at all not even reacting in anger or embrassement and he maintains a deadpan stoic expression as usual and again in 12 he is this with Kusanagi after Ignis shows of his body to them he doesnt react and ignores him
* [[The Cynic]]:He loses all his hope to live and find humanity due to being Kidnap as a child and being treated badly during the Lost Incident.After losing a duel and badly getting totured and not getting enough food he finds fifficult to enjoy dueling,having a happy life and making new freinds and talking about future and he sees this world as a cruel place and is very sour and cynical deepdown.
*[[Convenient Color Change]]: It's something really easy to miss upon initial viewings, but whenever Playmaker duels and performs an extra deck summoning or activates his skill, his suit tends to glow different colors to match the action he's taking.
**'''Normally/Link Summoning''': ''Standard Yellow''
**'''Storm Access''': ''His suit glows a yellowish orange color''
**'''Ritual Summoning''': ''His suit glows blue''
**'''Fusion Summoning''': ''His suit glows a light shade of purple''
**'''Synchro Summoning'''': ''His suit glows a light shade of green''
**'''XYZ Summoning''': ''His suit glows a darker shade of purple color or indigo''
* [[Dark and Troubled Past]]: One of the most cruel childhoods in the franchise. He and five other children were kidnapped by the perpetrators of the Hanoi Project and kept isolated in almost empty rooms, one child in each. The only thing there was in the rooms were the [=VR=] equipment used to duel against difficult opponents. Defeat WASN'T option. First, they'd be punished for their loss with an '''electroshock''', THEN [[Denied Food as Punishment|they'd be deprived of (enough) food]]. [[Harmful to Minors|Those kids were literally fighting for their food and risking a heart attack (among other health risks)]] [[Would Hurt a Child|in the process.]] Other than that, they've been exposed to isolation for continued periods of time. The whole nightmare lasted for ''half a year'' until the kids were abruptly released. [[HopeSpot You think it finally was over?]] [[LittleNo Nope.]] Despite of the efforts of the therapists (yes, you read that right, despite YuGiOhGX track recordof the previous series), the amount of stress the six children went through was just too much. Yusaku is even shown having nightmares of himself facing the virtual opponent again. In fact, it is heavily implied that Yusaku may be the one who got the luckiest, as everyone else are broken [[Up to Eleven|even worse than him]]. No wonder the poor guy isn't dueling for fun - to him dueling is a symbol of everything he lost, permanently.]]
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]:His Decode Talker are dark monsters
Line 156 ⟶ 163:
*[[Artificial Intelligence]]: One that Yusaku captures by accident, and is sought after by the Knights of Hanoi and SOL Technology Inc.
*[[The Atoner]]:In episode #42, seeing Playmaker continuously fail to perform Storm Access and even getting a forearm ripped off, Ai stepped in and transformed into a larger version of himself to prevent Playmaker from falling. Ai then proceeded to sacrifice a part of himself to repair Playmaker's arm and shield him from the flying debris. He really could have been erased. Even if he could have been erased either by Playmaker losing or being destroyed by the debris and had the slightest chance of surviving by saving Playmaker, he still saved Playmaker from certain death while risking his own life. Ai may have been willing to sacrifice himself because he wanted to make it up to Playmaker for lying about losing his memories.
*[[Bad Bad Acting]]: In spades, it's not at all surprising to see Ai [[Chewing the Scenary|dramatically panic]] about Playmaker being backed into a corner to lull their adversary into a false sense of security only for said opponent or even Playmaker himself to tell him he isn't fooling anyone with his act and they can see right through him.
*[[Beware the Silly Ones]]:After the Knight of Hanoi is about to blow himself up...Ignis transforms into and [[Eldritch Abomination]]...and devours him.
**Later, when Revolver loses against Playmaker in their master duel, he does so again and tears his arm off.
Line 181 ⟶ 189:
*[[Hidden Depths]]:Yusaku suspects him of being the one who was responsible for sending and installing Cyberse Wizard's card data into Naoki's Duel Disk.
*[[Keet]]
*[[Large Ham]]:Not to the same extent as Flame, but it's definitely there. Normally a total goofball, but when Playmaker is dueling and it looks like they're backed into a corner or really are backed into a corner, Ai tends to [[Chewing the Scenary|dramatically panic]] over the situation or mimic Playmaker's action, or gloat in about Playmaker's strategies in an over-the-top manner.
*[[Lovable Coward]]:After everything he has been through in just the first episode, his cowardice is entirely [[Justified]]
*[[Lovable Sex Maniac]]:Though not aggressive about it, Ignis had three sex-scenes on-screen in the first twenty episodes alone. His first guess as to why Yusaku is always busy is that he's making out with Shoichi.
Line 194 ⟶ 203:
*[[What Measure Is a Non Human]]:Most people only see it as a tool. Yusaku's poor treatment of it comes from the fact that he doesn't think it can feel or actually think, just that it's programmed to keep itself out of anyone's control.
===Shoichi Kusanagi (Cal Kolter)/Unnamed===
[[File:Full Body view of Shoichi Kusanagi.png|thumb]]
A hacker who shares the same motives as Yusaku.he Mysterious Hot-dog Vendor:
Line 209 ⟶ 218:
*[[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]:He may be a hot dog vendor but he is actually a skilled hacker.
*[[Dark and Troubled Past]]:His younger brother was in the same place as Yusaku.
*[[Dub Name Change]]:He is known as Cal Kolter in the dub
*[[The Gadfly]]:Show some shades of this, teasing Yusaku over his lack of social skills with women.
*[[Hacker Cave]]:His hotdog van doubles as one.
Line 257 ⟶ 266:
*[[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]:Soulburner's hot-bloodedness contrasts Playmaker's stoicism and no-nonsense front.
*[[Revenge]]:He seeks this against Revolver for the Hanoi incident, blaming him for his parents' deaths, and dules him after Revolver attempts an EnemyMine with them.
*[[Revenge Before Reason]]: Soulburner lets his animosity towards the Knights of Hanoi overcloud his better judgment, adamant on avenging the deaths of his parents by taking his rage out on Revolver. However, his hesitation to finish off Revolver in a single turn causes him to break down, abruptly ending the Duel.
*[[Signature Move]]: His Skill, Burning Draw, has him pay LP so that he only has 100 left, and allows him to draw a card for every 1000 LP he pays. In addition to being a high-risk move, it is also physically taxing.
*[[Sixth Ranger]]:Joins Yusaku and the others as a main character for season 2.
Line 282 ⟶ 292:
=== Aoi Zaizen (Skye Zaizen)/Blue Angel/Blue Girl/Blue Maiden ===
[[File:FullAoiZaizen.png|thumb]]
A classmate of Yusaku's who uses a Trickstar deck. As a Charisma Duelist, she is known as Blue Angel. In Season 2 she goes by the name Blue Girl in order to help her brother Akira in his search for the Ignis.

Voiced by: Yuki Nakashima (Japanese),Emily Carmer (English)
Line 288 ⟶ 298:
* [[Action Girl]]:She is also a very skilled duelist and she can put her opponents in big disadvantage during her duels
* [[Adrenaline Makeover]]: Her VRAINS Avatar transition from the cutesy Blue Angel to the mysterious and spicy Blue Girl that resemble and idol rocker. Justified in that Blue Girl is better for the stealthier operations she is doing with Ghost Girl, while Blue Angel sticks out. It is emphasized by a few of her new cards and effects, such as Trickstar Gig, and her fusion monster, Trickstar Band Sweet Guitar.
* [[Amazon Brigade]]:All of her Trickstars and Marincess monsters are females. Subverted come her next upgrade, Blue Maiden, which is girlier.
* [[Ambiguous Disorder]]:Out of Vrains her lack of emotion and suspicion of others (if not for good reason) bring up a few possible ailments, among them depression.
* [[Angelic Beauty]]:Her Trickstar deck and VR forms are these
Line 315 ⟶ 325:
* [[Clothing Damage]]:After her loss to Spectre her skirt becomes tattered.
* [[Conflict Ball]]: In Episode 55 and 56, after Playmaker and Soulburner refuse her offer for her and Akira to help them due to SOL Technologies involvement in the Lost Incident, she gets pissed off and demands they give Ai and Flame over so they can find the other Ignis's. Playmaker and Ghost Girl themselves are surprised at her behavior. Once she begins the duel she does return to being more civil.
*[[Cyber Punk]]: Initially, Aoi ran a Trickstar deck, but thanks to her partnership with the Water Ignis, Aqua, Aoi in her Blue Maiden avatar now has access to Cyberse monsters in the form of Marincesses which replaced her Trickstars and soundly defeated Haru, an inferior variant of Bohman with relatively low difficulty
* [[Character Development]]:Initially cold and standoffish and participating in the plot to win her brother's approval or get revenge on the Knight of Hanoi for what they did to her, Aoi wants to participate in the plot for the sake of protecting Vrains from the evil Ignis, and rather take action than sit around and do nothing.
* [[Dark Action Girl]]:Became this tempory when she was under the influence of Hanoi spell card and she came extremly close to defeat playmaker even if she lost
* [[Dangerously-Short Skirt]]:Its short as Kotori from zexal
Line 320 ⟶ 332:
* [[Death Glare]]:Gave a stern creepy one to Naoki when he started barging to Yusaku about her brother
* [[Dub Name Change]]: To Skye Zaizen, having implications of blue sky where angels come from.
* [[Digital Avatar]]: An angelic idol singer as Blue Angel and a more serious mercenary one as Blue Girl and then [[Magical Girl Warrior]] Blue Maiden
*[[Discard and Draw]]:After teaming up with Aqua she gets a new Marincess deck and a new Skill, Shape of the Sea, which lets her summon a monster from the grave that has equal or fewer attack points than the damage she just took.
* [[Designated Girl Fight]]: During the Tower of Hanoi arc Aoi faces off against Baira, the only female member of the Knights of Hanoi initially to blow off steam because she was in a bad mood, but upon learning the Baira was the one who created the ''another'' program that put her in a coma twenty episodes prior
* [[The Determinator]]: Has become this in Season 2
* [[Escapism]]:Aoi's Blue Angel persona is revealed to be based upon a Blue Angel in a book her brother always read to her as a child, about a lonely angel that cried blue tears and pretended she was didn't hate being alone, but eventually befriended other angels and fought against the forces of evil to find happiness. Her taking on this persona in Vrains is her own attempt to do so.
Line 350 ⟶ 364:
* [[Magical Girl]]: Blue Angel take on the appearance of a blue-haired magical girl with twintails and angelic wings marked with hearts and purple four-leaf clovers.
*[[Magical Girl Warrior]]: Her transformation from Blue Girl moves her away from Rock Idol and to this, complete with a [[Transformation Sequence]], and she explicitly calls it her battle form.
* [[Magical Incantation]]: While all the characters invoke one when Link Summoning, Aoi's reflects her character change. As Blue Angel she involved the circuit of dreams and hope. As Blue Girl she invokes the Circuit of determination and courage..As Blue Maiden she invokes the circuit of [[The Power of Friendship|friendship]] and [[The Power of Trust|bonds]].
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Her online handle, Blue Angel, references the fact that she uses a Trickstar Deck, which is composed of Fairy-Types.
* [[Multicolored Hair]]: As Blue Angel, her blue hair sports light blue highlights.
Line 370 ⟶ 384:
*[[Tall Dark and Bishojo]]:Oh yes
*[[Trauma Conga Line]]:Basically the latter half of Episode 7 is this for her. First, she learns that her [[Gradual Grinder]] strategy allowed Playmaker to use his [[Game Breaker|game breaking]] skill to get the monster he needed. Then she starts feeling the effect of the [[The Corruption|"Dark Angel"]] card which messes with her mind. After that, she realizes that Playmaker is about to OneHitKill her and tries to reduce him to 0 LP before he can do so, only to to be stopped and forced to use the "Dark Angel" card. This results in her getting MindRape from Hanoi's program. Finally, she loses anyway and is put into a coma in the next episode. To top it off, this was all streamed ''live'' to both her fans and her brother.
*[[The Only one Allowed to Defeat You]]: Aoi seems to have a sense of rivalry with Playmaker (not that he's interested anyway), immediately challenging him to a duel after he defeats the first Knight of Hanoi in Ep.2. While making her entrance[[Big Damn Heroes|to save Playmaker from being double teamed]] by two Sol Tech. AIs, she makes it known to them that she intends to be the person to beat Playmaker.
* [[Troll]]: The Trickstar's secondary focus is to mess with her opponents by forcing them into a serious disadvantage. For example banishing their entire hand and making them draw a new one thus thinning their decks or suppressing one of their Set Cards and forcing them into sending the card to Graveyard if it can't be activated during End Phase.
*[[Taking the Heat]]:She took the blame for losing Miyu's mother's ring, though it didn't go well for her at all, as she was warned by Miyu's mother not to get involved with her daughter ever again.
Line 457 ⟶ 472:
*[[Telepathy]]: Aqua has a degree of telepathy that lets her be a Living Lie Detector and can glean memories from Miyu and tell Blue Girl's real appearance and name.
*[[Tertiary Sexual Characteristics]]: Has pink eyelashes to emphasize her feminine appearance.
*[[Tsundere]]: Based on their interactions, while Aqua is rather strict and annoyed by Ai's antics, she was genuinely concerned and worried when Ai was in danger, implying she does care more about him than she is willing to admit.
*[[Water Is Blue]]: The WATER Ignis with a blue body and fittingly she ends paired with Aoi/Blue Angel.
