Has it already been this long without more Sky Striker posting???
At the JUMP Festa 2025 event held the past weekend, there was an art gallery for various Yu-Gi-Oh related art, including card images, reference arts, and a video display showing the Yu-Gi-Oh! Chronicles animated trailer.
Furthermore, the storyboards displayed at the gallery have been uploaded by the OCG Twitter:
“Sky Striker”
“A story of a girl that enters into the battlefield, wishing for peace”
The “Sky Striker”: A weapon developed with high level technology in order to resist a powerful military nation.
And furthermore, the girl who is the key to operate such weapon: “Raye”.
The girl, entrusted with the “Sky Striker”, becomes a “Sky Striker Ace” in order to defend the people of her nation, entering a cruel battlefield.
“The other ‘Sky Striker'”
“Raye” faces countless enemies as she fights bravely in the battlefield.
However, a girl with the same “Sky Striker” as hers suddenly appears in front of her.
“Roze”: a new Sky Striker Ace created by the enemy nation, mercilessly wields her blade against a perplexed “Raye”.
After exchanging countless slashes, what kind of future will the two girls arrive towards…
TL note: As usual, “Sky Striker” here is in reference to the equipment itself, and would work better if translated as “Flash Blade”.
“The Story of White”
“The story of the boy and the girl, guided by fate”
A land ruled through faith: “The Dogmatika Nation”
One day, a “Hole” opened in its skies, and a dragon appeared from it.
With the power of the Holy Maiden of “Dogmatika”, “Fleurdelis”, the dragon was struck down, but what landed in the expected crash site was a wounded boy.
In the middle of the fight, the other Holy Maiden, “Ecclesia”, decided to protect the boy, but as this act was an affront to the sacred teachings, she was denounced for it.
They were saved by the organization that opposed the “Dogmatika”, the “Tri-Brigade”, and they managed to escape the battlefield, fleeing the nation.
“Albaz”: a young dragon boy with no memories.
“Ecclesia”: a banished Holy Maiden.
Their story begins now…

Absolute cinema.
HYPED
Oooooooooooooooooo. Hyped, why can’t April come already
There’s something curious about the Lore Archetypes chosen for the Animated Shorts: the first one would have the first Female MC and the second one would have a Female Lead who is important to the Lore as the MC.
Although well, Ecclesia as a Character is not that interesting and is just Albaz’s love interest in general. Also, being a Female Lead, Ecclesia suffered the classic Yu-Gi-Oh Female Character treatment: brainwashing, mind control, drama and that she must be rescued (and this is not me saying it: Albaz Lore itself wanted it that way)
“Okay is it sword girl or rice girl”
It’ll be revealed that both were Aleister this whole time.
Normal Summon Aleister
But Aleister is just Dante after he got fed up with his Pendulum Sorcerer gig.

Yu-Gi-Oh! is well on its way to being called Sky Striker!.
Next 25th anniversary celebration to begin in 2043.
Both looks so generic, just trash…
Ok how would you make it not “generic”
@Stevie – 100th rerelease of BEWD, Dark Magician or another batch of HEROes.
No seriously – people using term “generic” to describe current ygo are either trolls or boomers wishing for old stuff.
WWE L Take
I continue to allow myself to hope that the Sky Striker one will just ditch the “everybody but her is a robot” Yoshida thing.
I wonder if Camilla and Azealia will be in it. They are honestly the only somewhat interesting characters in the manga…sure wasn’t Raye.
Why not give us the lore of
Koitsu
Soitsu
Doitsu
Aitsu
THE BROTHERS THAT FACE GREAT EVIL
Because nobody gives a crap about them. They also are just generic enemy characters from Parodius.
HOW DARE YOU
Namesky have ever you heard of jokes?
do you want to extra income from home… salaryhere.Com
Abyss season 2 PLEASE
So it seems:
– Sky Striker getting the first 1/2 of their Manga adapted
– Albaz getting the first 1/4 of its story
Interesting choices to where they are ending for next year, though since they seem only be doing the first 1/4 of Albaz, I would have preferred them to do what happening in the current Magistus Manga instead. Would have been better promoted to a certain extent and might get people who the read the manga to watch the show more and vice versa
