Here is the million dollar question: Is Yuma a Henshin Hero or a Magical Boy as ZEXAL?
I mean, there is an argument for both: The show is based on a magical girl series and Yuma and Kaito have a dynamic similar to a typical Magical Girl and a Dark Magical Girl.
In the other hand, the transformation reminded me of Kamen Rider Double and the show itself inspired Kamen Rider Fourze (or so some people think).
So? Any ideas?

Why does he escape being expelled from the tournament for life? Yuma, his friend, jumps in and champions his cause, regardless of the punishment both being appropriate for the crime and sounding rather similar to the one used in real-life tournaments.
- Averted in the dub where they threw in an extra line about banishing the kid from the city as well as the tournament, thus making Yuma's defense of his friend much more understandable.
Look, i believe this is a correct example, but this example not explains the corrects reasons "why". (Protagonist centered morality is about a double standard of the form as the protagonists are treated in relation to secondary characters)
Should this page have more info of the manga? I think it has another story.

Hide / Show RepliesShout-Out, assuming that it's an unique design (mere resemblance is not a trope at all, period), which Google seems to suggest.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanSo, do we have a good reason why Yuma is no good at dueling, or are we just supposed to suffer through his complete ineptitude when he's the main and probably needs to learn not to play the cards like a damn fool? Part of the show's appeal was the fact that the heroes we had were somewhat good at the game, or got better over time. Yuma does neither.
Hide / Show RepliesJust watch. He does get a lot better during the World Duel Carnival arc.
Ignore this.
