Voiced by: Daiki Hamano (Japanese),Daniel J Edwards (English)
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}
*[[Attention Whore]]:His first spoken line in the series is to complain about Playmaker supposedly taking his spotlight, hinting that he has a big ego dispite his friendly demeanor.This is [[Deconstructed]] at the same time: Go grew up in an orphanage and as thanks, decided to become a Charisma Duelist so he earn money, could repay their kindness, and make children happy.
*[[Anti-Magic]]:His Dinowrestler monsters prevent the activation of spells and traps when they attack like Ancient Gear monsters. It appears that Mirror Force really bothered him.

*[[Expy]]: He's basically a hunky [[Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal|Giragi]] and his dueling style is similar to [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's|Jack Atlas]]
*[[Face Heel Turn]]:
*
**Does this in Season 2 where he becomes a Bounty Hunter for SOL hunting down Playmaker
*[[Friend to All Children]]:Don't let his looks and [[Attention Whore]] attitude fool you, as he's really nice towards children and doing his Charisma DUeling job to give them a better life.
*[[For Happiness]]: Vows to protect LINK VRAINS so the orphanage children can continue to smile.
*[[Foil]]:To Blue Angel. While in the Hanoi arc Blue Angel realized she wants to duel for others and not just herself, Go comes to the conclusion it is ok to duel for himself and not others. In addition, while Blue Angel is grateful to Playmaker for saving her and doesn't appear bothered by being overshadowed, Go deeply resents it and will stop at nothing to beat Playmaker for the sake of his pride.

**Disguises himself as a Knight of Hanoi to lure Playmaker into Dueling him.
**Later disguises himself as Playmaker to lure Dr. Genome into Dueling him.

*[[Gentle Giant]]: Despite his stature and build, he has a friendly and kind-hearted demeanor outside of LINK VRAINS.

*[[Human Sacrifice]]:Disintegrates and gets absorbed by the Tower of Hanoi after he is defeated by Revolver.
*[[Humble Hero]]: As a result of his orphaned upbringing. Subverted later, when his Pride and resentment towards being second best to Playmaker leads to his FaceHeelTurn.

*[[It's All My Fault]]:Blames himself for being unable to stop Makoto from becoming an Another victim.
*[[It's Personal]]: Cares not for the whole bounty hunting thing, as all he cares about is taking down Playmaker so that he can restore his reputation as the number one Duelist in LINK VRAINS.
*[[Manly Tears]]:Subverted, but he is moved regardless when the orphanage children continue to acknowledge him as the champion of Link VRAINS even after losing to Playmaker.

*[[Revenge]]:Vows to get back at Dr. Genome for turning Makoto into an Another victim.
*[[Reforged Into a Minion]]: Not literally, but discussed by Soulburner. Lampshaded by Soulburner, who labels GO as a lap dog working for SOL Technologies; or rather, a Sore Loser incapable of anything but venting his frustrations.
*[[Shout Out]]:He's one giant homage to ProfessionalWrestling. His Gouki monsters are wrestling-themed anthropomorphic animals, Go himself looks like a wrestler, his debut episodes include a lot of references to wrestling, and his story (orphan who got into dueling to support himself, donates his winnings to the same orphanage and is a hero to the kids there) is straight from a wrestler's [[Kayfabe]] backstory while also echoing the real life charity work they do.
*[[Sore Loser]]: Since the conclusion of the Tower of Hanoi incident, he's really sore over the fact that he's no longer number one in LINK VRAINS, and thus discards his reputation as a Charisma Duelist and becomes a BountyHunter, all so he could get back at Playmaker.

* [[Girlish Pigtails]]: As Blue Angel, her hair is tied up like this.
Line 582 ⟶ 607:
Cyberse-Type Monsters on the field, hand, and Graveyard, prevent them from attacking, and cannot be targeted for attacks (although this doesn't stop either player from attacking directly) or by card effects. At least two Cyberse-Type Link Monsters on the field are a prerequisite to activate this effect. As demonstrated in his Master Duel against Playmaker, this, too, affects Ignis, causing him to malfunction and fade away.
*[[Anti-Villain]]: Like Dr. Kogami he wants Yusaku to understand that the Ignis has the capacity to harm humanity and they need to be stoped in order to save it.Despite being the BigBad main antagonist of the series, he is just trying to take care of his father and finish his plan of destroying the Cyberse and Ignis all for the greater good. His father created the Ignis to save humanity from a currently unknown threat only for the Ignis to turn on them and have the ability to lie and cheat. He feels like he has to destroy the Ignis to not make everything worse.

*[[Char Clone]]:The first Kaiba Expy who is not only outright evil, but is also actively working with the villains.
Line 603 ⟶ 629:
* [[The Faceless]]: The top half of his real world identity's face is obscured.
*[[Foil]]: To [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V|Reiji]] He and Reiji are opposites to each other: the latter is a [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]], leads the Lancers in an attempt to stop the Arc Area Project (which ultimately resulted with the resurrection of a Satanic Archetype [[Omnicidal Maniac]]), and is quite respectful towards Yuya, while the former is just as villainous as the likes of Marik and Placido, leads the Knights of Hanoi in his campaign to annihilate Link VRAINS, and is openly hostile to Yusaku.Furthermore, Reiji's goal is to stop his father's schemes, while Revolver's is to accomplish his father's dream.
*[[Graceful Loser]]: Downplayed. While Revolver calmly accepts his defeat to Playmaker in their second Master Duel and agrees to stop the Tower of Hanoi, he warns Playmaker that the Ignis remain a threat to humanity, and vows to fulfill his destiny someday.
*[[Hypocrite]]:Despite his opinion on Link VRAINS allowing people to lie to each other, Revolver also uses an alias and has an avatar that makes it hard to really get behind what he is trying to accomplish.

Line 674 ⟶ 702:
** The real last straw, however, was Playmaker destroying his Sunavalon Dryatrentiay. Spectre ''completely'' loses his shit and snaps at Playmaker for destroying what Spectre revered as sacred and motherly.
*[[The Reason You Suck Speech]]:
**Mixed with
*
*[[Relative Button]]:As Playmaker and Ai find out, destroying Sunavalon Dryatrentiay was a terrible mistake, as Spectre ''completely'' loses his shit and snaps at Playmaker for destroying what Spectre reveres as sacred and motherly.
*[[Slasher Smile]]:Most of his smiles are disturbing and creepy as shown in his interactions with Kitamura and Blue Angel.
*[[Stone Wall]]:The Sunavalon archetype has a variety of life point recovery and DamageReduction tactics to keep his lifepoints high, but can switch over into a MightyGlacier depending on some of the monsters.
