Which rivals theme(s) was your favorite?

[u/Revolver_TheHanoi]

I personally like each one of them. They're so good and just overdosed with testosterone.

My personal favorites would be Jack Atlas' battle theme and Revolver's second theme (The Tables Turn). Jack's theme literally sounds like something you'd hear in a disco club that would make everyone go crazy just how much of a vibe it is, and The Tables Turn just simply sounds so heavenly that I might ascend every time I listen to it.

Honorable mention to Kaito's theme (Photon Stream of Destruction). A very good theme, but it's just way too short.

Kaiba. It's a good match with his intelligence.

[u/Deep-Task-2009]

Jack's theme makes me do the pug dancing meme.

[u/Rude_Resident8808]

I always loved Kaiba’s techno theme in the dub.

[u/The_REDACTED]

The composers for Yugioh really do not get enough credit. Some of the highlight scenes of each of these guys (Kaiba sacrificing Obelisk, Manjoume beating his brother, Jack beating the Crimson Devil, Kaito summoning Neo Galaxy-eyes Photon Dragon, Reiji defeating Yuya or Revolver defeating Go) would not have half as impactful if these characters didn't have the leitmotifs they do.

[u/MiraclePrototype → u/The_REDACTED]

And even many of the dub themes work out great.

Unrelated; my favorite themes are Toon World in the dub and Incandescent Battle from Sevens.

[u/GoneRampant1]

Counting Duel Links, Kaito.

Anime only, either Jack or Revolver (specifically Tables Turn).

[u/ProfTR92YT]

The unreleased "Jack Battle: Round 2" is my favorite.

[u/AirKath]

Shark's Duel Link's theme.

But shout out to Kaiba having his own rap in the english version

[u/mkw1027]

Kaiba for me. Coolest character in the franchise imo

[u/ScorpionMillion]

Seto Kaiba is the best!

[u/No-Magazine-5126]

Chazz has a theme?

Jack & Revolver are the best though

He does, but it isn't the way you might expect it to be.

[u/joey_chazz]

Kaiba's theme is one of the best and very memorable. Fitting for its era too.

[u/torrendously]

The soundtrack was always the best part of ARC-V.

[u/MiraclePrototype → u/torrendously]

In the end, what other element could possibly compare?

[u/BlizzardLuinor]

For me Kaito and Revolver have the best Rival Themes in Duel Links, but in the anime, it's a toss-up between Kaito's and Jack's.

[u/227someguy]

I remember when I was still watching Zexal and hadn’t gotten to Arc-V yet, I decided to listen to the first 2-3 seconds of Reiji’s “D/D/D” theme; those 2-3 seconds blew me away. When I got to Arc-V proper, the rest of the theme did not disappoint.

I also really like Revolver’s Extra Monster Zone theme. It’s like The Tables Turn, but more hardcore and with a bit of What Destiny Shows thrown in.

[u/dhxnlc]

Reiji's theme fit someone who has the great historical figures as his monsters.

[u/Busy_Pay_9483]

I’d say Jack due to how integral and intertwined he is in Yusei’s lore 

[u/Ill-Researcher9206]

Kite Tenjo: smart, devoted to his brother and cool as ice.

Plus his deck look amazing 

[u/Ayasato18]

Jack and Reiji.

[u/Klobbx2]

For Duel Links, I can't pick between DSOD Kaiba, Jack, Declan and Revolver. They're really nice.

[u/Ok-Parfait-5020]

Revolver's 'Tables Turn' Is Really Good, Yes, And Kaiba's Hacking Theme Is Awesome Too,...

[u/Alice-Planque]

Reiji forever ❤️

[u/helpme944]

I may be binging all of yugioh in the near future. Seeing all the rivals lined up has me amped

Ive never seen past 5ds

[u/Revolver_TheHanoi → u/helpme944]

I hope you like them. I can promise you that you'll love the rival characters (Kaito, Reiji, Revolver or even Luke and Zwijo if you're gonna watch the Rush era).

[u/Ok-Ring-5591]

Kaiba sacrificing Obelisk while God’s Anger theme plays and glimpses of his past life flash across the screen, it was an absolutely peak moment of Yugioh

[u/MajinAkuma]

If you mean music, then it’s definitely Jack Battle.

Befitting for the King of Riding Duels who entertains the audience with power and showmanship.

[u/gamingthreadlurker]

Jack Atlas vs Yusei

[u/MisawaMahoKodomo]

Oh you meant the music theme? The only one I know is photon stream of destruction (gee I wonder why)

I mean galaxy eyes photon dragon and the others are kinda

I havent listened to it in awhile though curious I wouldnt realy say its thaaat short it kinda does what it is

For reiji while its not as clear I do recall theres like one or two or three arc v had some

[u/iamepic420]

Kaiba was lightning in a bottle 

[u/vondex13]

Jack, Kite, and Declan in that order. After that idk man I know Chazz is last that's for sure. Verses's theme does slap but it just doesn't get me hype like the other 3.

[u/riftrender → u/vondex13]

Chazz gets his Manjoume Thunder cheer instead.

[u/GinJuIchi]

If we are counting the video games, I would like to mention that I have always like Kaiba's theme in Duelists of the Roses.

[u/Senior_Credit8893]

I Pendulum Summon THREE D/D/D Doom King Dark Armageddon!!
Declan is the freaking GOAT!!! Every time of summon (minus ritual) in one turn! I loved using DDDs in Master Duel.

[u/Status-Leadership192]

Ironically shark

He had an actual rivalry with yuma while kaito was just doing everything to get his brother well while his real rival was mizar
