Tsukumo Yuma

Japanese name:

九十九 遊馬

Yuma Tsukumo is the protagonist in the new Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL series. He is the first main character of any Yu-Gi-Oh! anime/manga series to not be an only child.

Yuma is a hasty young boy who likes to challenge himself to do anything that seems impossible, which he normally fails at. He states that doing these challenges gets him fired up and will eventually accomplish what he sets out to do. He is also somewhat self-contradictory as he often says things like how he tells his friend, Kotori Mizuki that she doesn't understand what it's like to be him after being left exhausted only to change the subject to how he always gets fired up, or when he says he won't show up to his Duel with "Shark" Ryoga until immediately regaining his confidence. Yuma is shown to stick up for others despite their protests, challenging "Shark" to reclaim Tetsuo's Deck.
