Konami Cross Media: la franquicia Yu-Gi-Oh! como oferta central

Konami Cross Media NY presentará su oferta central de animación en los mercados de este mes, con un equipo ejecutivo que incluye a la Presidenta Kristen Gray y al Vicepresidente Senior de Distribución, Mark Kirk. La división con sede en Nueva York utilizará el mercado para promocionar nuevas temporadas y librerías establecidas de su franquicia mundialmente reconocida, Yu-Gi-Oh!.

El enfoque principal es la serie más reciente, Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!!, que está lanzando su tercera temporada (49 x 22’) y está disponible para todos los mercados fuera de Asia. El show se centra en los gemelos Yuhi y Yuamu Ohdo, cuya creencia en la vida extraterrestre se valida cuando un alienígena llamado Yudias llega a la Tierra. Yudias, buscando poner fin a un conflicto interestelar, cree que la solución reside en el popular juego de cartas de la Tierra, los Duelos de Prisa (Rush Duels). La serie promete una escala cósmica de acción, presentando monstruos, hechizos y aventuras literalmente «fuera de este mundo».

Konami también está ofreciendo a su predecesora inmediata, Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS (T1: 43x 22’, T2: 46 x 22’ episodios), que introdujo los Duelos de Prisa de ritmo más rápido. La narrativa sigue a Yuga Ohdo, un estudiante de quinto grado que inventa el nuevo estilo de duelo, solo para enfrentar la oposición de la controladora megacorporación, Goha Enterprises. Al igual que GO RUSH!!, esta serie está disponible en todos los mercados excluyendo Asia.

Completando la lista de distribución se encuentra la serie fundacional, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (236 x 22’ episodios), que presenta al protagonista Yugi y sus amigos navegando por un juego de batalla de cartas estratégico poblado por criaturas místicas y poderosos hechizos. Esta extensa librería también está disponible ahora en todos los mercados fuera de Asia, proporcionando a los distribuidores un volumen de episodios bien establecido y amplio.
