9
10The main protagonist of ''OCG Structures''. A soft-spoken and shy 13-year-old who loves to play the ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' card game. He moves in with his older sister to Tokyo, where he meets up with all sorts of people and makes new friends. He has a tendency to change decks on a whim, which is usually when new cards are released.\
11\
12He starts out with a Tenyi/Yang Zing hybrid deck he built during the Rising Rampage release event, after the event he refined it into a pure Tenyi deck.\
13Upon the release of the structure deck Warriors' Strike, he uses a Fire Warrior deck focusing on Immortal Phoenix Gearfried. After his duel against Saiko, he refined the deck to use against Tsukiko.\
14For the exhibition duel to showcase the new Master Rules he uses a Gaia the Fierce Knight deck.\
15In the finals of the Team battle event he uses a Virtual World Deck.\
16In his duels against Ohza he uses a Magikey deck.\
17In the "Challenge the World Champion" event Shoma used an Ursarctic deck against Kuroda, and a Starry Knight deck against Jukyu.\
18In his duel against Shiori he uses a P.U.N.K. deck.
19----
20* BadassAdorable: He's just as cute as [[Anime/YuGiOhArcV Yuya]], and a Dueling genius at the same time.
21* ChasteHero: Kind of justified as he's only 13, as he's isn't interested in romance and is only focused on dueling.
22* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter:
23** While Shoma is a direct contrast to the previous "Yu" characters due to constantly changing decks after a few chapters, [[Anime/YuGiOhZEXAL Yuma]] serves as the closest opposite to him, since both of them are {{Kid Hero}}es, have [[CoolBigSis older sisters]], and stable family backgrounds but have a RedOniBlueOni dynamic: while Yuma is a HotBlooded IdiotHero, Shoma is a cunning but sensible ShrinkingViolet. Additionally, Yuma has a vitriolic relationship with Akari, while Shoma gets along very well with Ageha due to their shared interest in Dueling.
24** He's also this to [[Anime/YuGiOhVRAINS Yusaku]], as green-eyed [[BlueIsHeroic heroes in blue]]: Yusaku is a {{Jerkass}} AntiHero and a lone wolf who sees Duel Monsters as nothing more than mere weapons for him to use, while Shoma is an introverted NiceGuy who can see and communicate with Duel Monsters.
25* CountryMouse: He originally lived in the countryside of Japan[[note]]In some translations, he refers to living in a "flyover country", which is equivalent to "the boonies" or "backwater". However, it's a term used by RealLife judges in ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' tournaments for heavily rural areas.[[/note]], before moving with his older sister to Tokyo at the start of the series.
26* KidHero: He's only 13-years-old and is the main hero of the manga.
27* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: Depending on interpretation, the spirits of the Struct World could also just be Shoma's visualisation on how he makes decks instead of being duel spirits like other series.
28* NaiveNewcomer: He recently moved to the big city in Tokyo, and is rather socially awkward despite his dueling skills.
29* ObliviousToLove: He really doesn't understand what Ageha means by "dating" and sees it as just an event for a boy and girl to hang around. Later on, he's also unaware of Tsukiko's feelings towards him after their "Duel Date". Justified as he's only 13.
30* PaperThinDisguise: When attempting to sneak into a tournament for adults, he disguises himself by wearing a hat and fake beard. Naturally he is immediately found out.
31* SamuraiPonytail: Although he isn't a samurai, Shoma has a rather long ponytail compared to the previous Yu-tagonists.
32* ShrinkingViolet: He's described to be soft-spoken and shy around people outside of his interactions with his older sister.

35[[folder:Ageha Yusa]]
36!!Ageha Yusa
37[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ageha_yusa.png]]
38
39Shoma's older sister. A 25-year-old woman who's a veteran player of the ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' card game.\
40\
41Her main deck is a Traptrix deck, which she used in the World Championship.\
42In her duel against Tsukiko she uses a Time Thief deck.
43----
44* AnimeHair: Her hair is green with the back being jagged like a christmas tree.
45* BewareOfTheNiceOnes: She's usually nice and supportive, but pissing her off is not a good idea.
46* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter:
47** To the previous female leads in the entire franchise, since she's not only a 25-year old CoolBigSis, but also the first to have the kanji "Yu" (遊 ''Yū'') in her name.
48** On a side note, Ageha serves as this to [[Anime/YuGiOhZEXAL Akari]] as older sisters of their respective "Yu" characters. While Akari is very aggressive towards Yuma to the point of forbidding him from Dueling (mainly due to being overprotective), Ageha is nothing but very supportive towards Shoma's interest in Dueling. For bonus points, Ageha is a "Yu" character (through her surname) while Akari is not.
49* CoolBigSis: To Shoma letting him move in with her so he can duel other people in the city since he could only play by himself at the countryside.
50* {{Cosplay}}: She cosplays as an executive of the Knights of Hanoi when attending the Jump Victory Carnival.
51* CountryMouse: She originally lived in the countryside of Japan before finding work in Tokyo.
52* MeaningfulName: Her first name means "swallowtail", fitting for someone who runs a Traptrix deck.
53
54* OldMaid: 25 years old, single and looking.

58!Four Duel Kings
59
60[[folder:Jukyu Goriki]]
61!!Jukyu Goriki
62The first Duelist who Shoma is paired up against during his first visit to the Satellite Shop. The first king of the Four Duel Kings who's defeated by Shoma. Jukyu prefers to use powerful decks that centered on big ATK scores, but always includes a copy of Mist Valley Apex Avian to use its powerful negation effect.\
63\
64In the Rising Rampage release event he built and used a Simorgh deck.\
65In the Team battle event he uses a Dragunity deck.\
66In the "Challenge the World Champion" eventa Lyrilusc/Tri-Brigade hybrid deck.
67----
68* TheBigGuy: He's the largest member of the Four Duel Kings, and his first on-screen deck involves using his special "God Strong Wind" combo; summoning three monsters whose ATK are 3000 and up due to his field spell, ''in one turn''. Furthermore, the three of them have effects that would essentially cause ''two negations'' to his opponent's cards, thus giving Jukyu some defense despite having an empty hand.
69* GagLips: He has prominent lips compare to the rest of the other characters.
70* RedBaron: He is called "Strong Jukyu" in the ''Saikyo Card Battle'' game.
71* SignatureMon: All his decks include Mist Valley Apex Avian even though none of them focus on the Mist Valley archetype, but mesh well with the card due to focusing on Winged-Beast types or Wind Attribute monsters allowing him to easily summon it and use its negation effect.
72* ThrowTheDogABone: He's considered the weakest of the Four Duel Kings, once lost in a tournament by bricking, and has the worst track record in the Team Battle Event. Despite this, he manages to defeat Yami Kuroda in the finals, making the Structures team the overall winner of the event.

82----
83* {{Chuunibyou}}: Kuroda is this by default, judging by his getup and manners.
84* {{Cyberpunk}}: He runs a Mathmech deck in his Duel against Shoma.
85* InformedAttribute: For somebody who is hyped to be the strongest of the 4 duel kings, his on-screen duel record leaves a lot to be desired as he lost all the duels that we see him in.
86* MySisterIsOffLimits: He's very protective of Tsukiko, as shown when he instantly challenges Shoma to a Duel for acting chummy towards her. He even went so far as putting a TrackingDevice in her bag so he could know where she is.
87* PrecociousCrush: He is infatuated with Ms. Guide who is at least 10 years older than he is much to her discomfort.
88* RedBaron: He is called "Dark Kuroda" in the ''Saikyo Card Battle'' game.

100* ElegantGothicLolita: Her default choice of clothing.
101* GaveUpTooSoon: Her reason for participating in the tournament was to duel against Shoma, but she left after winning the duel against Anna out of frustration that Shoma kept rooting for his teammate, but had she stayed she would have an exhibition match against Shoma since they both were the only duelists with a perfect winning streak.
102* RedBaron: She is called "Light Tsukiko" in the ''Saikyo Card Battle'' game.
103[[/folder]]
104
105[[folder:Saiko Tendo]]

He's the only king of the Four Duel Kings who defeated Shoma in a duel, and the last one to be defeated by the latter in turn. His decks are high tier decks used by competitive players and include a copy of Maxx "C" to put pressure on his opponent and increase his hand size.\
108\
