Design

Appearance

Zane'due south design incorporates multiple layers of clothing and a wide range of expressions. Depicted hither is the Duelist in full Obelisk Blue regalia from the forepart, rear and alongside views with views of his head from different angles.

Zane's graphic symbol design was overseen by Kenichi Hara. His first season outfit (left) consists of the standard Obelisk Blueish uniform with a more pronounced collar, tighter-jump sleeves, and pointed rims coming out the costume's lower back. His blue pilus is sectioned in three layers, his blue optics positioned directly beneath the bangs of the layer closest to his face. He carries an Academy-issued Duel Disk on his left hand. After graduating, he keeps his Obelisk Blue uniform and adds a blackness fingerless glove on his right hand. As well, the button on the shirt becomes star-shaped.

Zane's second outfit consists of a black overcoat with white trimmings and sharp edges. The alphabetic character "R" is centered on his belt buckle, fatigued from the first letter of his proper name in the Japanese version. (This feature has been occasionally removed from the dub). Zane'due south facial expressions also elicit more angered and/or sadistic nuances than those of his previous design.

Personality

Zane's personality is markedly different during each of the seasons. In the get-go flavor and the start of the 2nd flavor, Zane is calm and nerveless, with a deep respect for his opponents and his own cards. He feels that the connection between a Duelist and his opponent, as well equally the Duelist himself and his Deck, makes victory meaningful. His dubbed personality is harsher and has a sharper tongue than his Japanese analogue.

In the second season, post-obit his Duel in the underground against Mad Dog, his personality is much harsher, crueler, and sadistic; as he enjoys watching his opponents suffer. In the dub, he even rants about how the world is fabricated of hurt, and that Dueling is all about dealing with pain and inflicting pain on those who are weak.

By the time of the third season, Zane's personality appears to have on a mix of both his sometime attitudes. While he however Duels much more than aggressively and with more passion than in the offset flavor, Zane also appears capable of respecting his opponents again, and doesn't deed so dark and needlessly cruel. His Deck changes as well; while he still uses the "Cyberdark" series, he uses his normal "Cyber Dragons" over again, even bringing out "Cyber End Dragon" more ofttimes than "Cyberdark Dragon" and utilizing the former where the latter has failed.

It was originally believed to exist the electrodes that were the cause of Zane's heart problems but it was later revealed the cause of his heart bug was the apply of his "Cyberdark" Deck; the cards' want to win at all costs were what inflicted the damage to his heart (in the original, Judai also mentions a wide variety of reasons why the cards might do and then).

Following his revival in the 4th season, Zane has go quiet and reserved, losing nearly of the negative aspects of his personality that he developed in the second flavour. Though of the opinion that he had his best concluding Duel against Yubel, his Deck wants to keep fighting regardless of Zane himself. Despite this, Zane still attempts to Duel Makoto Inotsume. He after decides to kickoff Dueling again with a new, evolving Deck, and demonstrates pride in his blood brother, believing him to take surpassed him.

Etymology

When Syrus was younger he almost used the card "Ability Bail" without thinking during a Duel. He was stopped by Zane who revealed that if he used it he would have lost the Duel at the end of his turn because of the card's drawback. Paying off Syrus's opponent to end the Duel, Zane sealed the bill of fare, stating that his brother could merely employ information technology when he was truly gear up.

Seven Stars

Zane first appears with Alexis Rhodes watching Jaden Duel and ultimately beat out Vellian Crowler. Zane walks away later the duel worried Jaden may be better than him. Alexis afterwards goes to Zane after she got complimentary from Titan. Zane tells her he believes his brother doesn't Vest at Duel University. Syrus, assertive himself to be a disgrace to his older brother, did not unseal Power Bail after Jaden faced off against Zane due to him getting mad at Zane's disloyalty to Syrus. Though Jaden put upward a adept fight, Zane defeated him, merely was impressed with Jaden'due south skills. Afterward watching Jaden and Syrus beat the Paradox Brothers, Zane gains respect for his brother as a duelist. Zane later met Blair Flannigan who had a huge crush on him. Subsequently Blair loses to Jaden, Zane told her she deceit stay because she is in second grade. Zane would later suggest that Jaden be the representative in the Duel against North Academy after Chancellor Sheppard expressed a desire to choose a first twelvemonth student. Jaden became the representative by beating Bastion Misawa in a duel. As the best Duelist in the Academy, Zane was chosen as ane of the Primal Keepers of the Spirit Keys. Zane was selected by Camula, the second member of the Shadow Riders, as a victim of her Shadow Duel. Although he overpowered her easily the vampire forced him into an intentional loss past offering his brother'south soul as payment for her "Ilusion Gate" carte du jour. As a consequence, he was turned into a doll for a short period of fourth dimension before Jaden managed to defeat Camula, returning Zane to normal.

With the Shadow Riders defeated, Zane faces Jaden in a rematch, choosing him every bit his opponent for his ceremonial graduation Duel. The Duel ends in a Depict since they utilise a variety of cards to raise their monsters' ATKs to astronomical levels but concluded up taking harm equal to both monsters' ATK due to "Final Fusion". Zane wishes Jaden luck next year and goes on to compete in the Duelist Pro Leagues later his graduation.

Order of Light

Zane's defeat against Aster.

A fan favorite in the Pro League winning many duels, he suffers his first true loss at the hands of Aster Phoenix, who tells him that his defeat is "predetermined past destiny".

The boxing takes its toll; from then on, Zane finds himself trapped in a perpetual losing streak, due to depression of his loss to Aster. He is approached by Mr. Shroud, a promoter who offers him the adventure to redeem himself, and although reluctant at first, Zane ultimately accepts.

Linework.

Zane is pitted against Mad Canis familiaris in an "Underground Duel", a competition in front of a shady audition wherein both contestants are sealed inside a muzzle and forced to habiliment electrodes that shock them each time life points are depleted. Zane finds himself on the losing end again but realizes that his erstwhile philosophy of respecting the opponent above the desire to win has limits towards the stop of the game. Frustrated and desperate, he resorts to cruelty and assailment and Summons the "Chimeratech Overdragon", which wins the Duel and practically destroys the Dueling ring in the procedure. As the fume clears, Shroud is amazed (he calls Ryo a "monster" in the Japanese version). The next time Zane is seen, he proves his forcefulness to the Dueling world over again. He is now addressed equally "Hell Kaiser Ryo" (ヘルカイザー亮, Heru Kaizā Ryō) in the Japanese version; he has donned a dark outfit, and a personality to match. In the English Yu-Gi-Oh! video games, this version of Zane is referred to as "Nighttime Zane" to differentiate him from his former persona, as both versions are possible opponents.

Zane returns to the Pro League and goes on a new winning streak and many of his opponents are left seriously injured at the easily of his monsters' directly attacks. Zane fires his promoter, Mr. Shroud and travels into the mountains to confront Chancellor Sheppard in the dojo where he was brought up Dueling, hoping to acquire the forbidden Underworld Deck, known in Japan equally Cyber Fine art Reverse (サイバー流裏, Saibā Ryū Ura) Deck that existed contrary of his own "Cyber Dragon" Deck. Although Sheppard manages to keep Zane at bay with his "Cyber Ogre" and diverse methods of manipulating his opponent's monsters, he is defeated past his own "Cyber Ogre 2" when Zane betrays his "Cyber Terminate Dragon". Zane takes his prize just Sheppard believes that he volition regain the respect he once held for his opponents during the Genex Tournament and then gives him a Genex Medallion that allows him to participate. Although Zane has no involvement in tournaments he accepts the invitation believing that it's a practiced chance to endeavour out his new deck that he had won.

Zane in his new attire

Upon returning to Duel Academy to oversee the Genex Tournament, Chancellor Sheppard tells Zane's old friend Atticus Rhodes that Zane is no longer himself and has been controlled past darkness. Atticus confronts Zane in a Duel but Zane'due south new Underworld Deck overwhelms Atticus, eventually forcing him to requite into the darkness and use his Nightshroud persona. Atticus believes that he will ready the darkness free from Zane by defeating him but Zane wins and reveals that he still has complete control over himself and is non existence controlled or influenced by darkness similar many characters think. He simply changed his personality because he felt like being cruel and ruthless was the simply way he could begin winning his Duels over again.

Zane in his Duel with Syrus.

Zane approaches Aster Phoenix for a second Duel. Syrus, yet, intervenes and demands to exist his opponent instead. Similar to his Duel with Mad Domestic dog, both players wear electrodes and are subject to the intense physical punishment of the "Hell Duel." It becomes articulate that, in his current mindset, Zane spares no ane; he is cold, merciless, and sadistic, regardless of whom his opponents are and enjoys witnessing others suffer, even if information technology is his younger blood brother he is torturing. Despite Syrus' impressive plays, Zane defeats him when he defuses "Cyberdark Dragon" back to its three original fusion components. He so makes his exit, saying that if at that place is annihilation he respects at all anymore it is simply victory itself. He appears over again beating an Obelisk Blue student and then has a brief run-in with the disguised Blair Flannigan, giving her his Genex Medallion as he is no longer interested in participating and leaves Duel Academy Island. Every unmarried character that met him on the island is shocked by his change, including Aster. Up to this point Jaden was besides revealed to have thought that Zane had just "tried on a new look".

Dimension World

He is not seen again until midway through the third year when he returns to Duel Jesse Anderson to supply the energy necessary for the awakening of "Rainbow Dragon". Later, later hearing about Yubel, he designates it as his final opponent. Presently afterwards, along with Aster Phoenix, he sees Jaden and company off on their journey to rescue Jesse in the different dimension, but is dragged through the portal himself alongside Aster. Past this fourth dimension, information technology is believed that prolonged usage of electrodes (subsequently revealed to actually be his Underworld Deck) has left him with fatal heart conditions. In the dub he says that his center is weak from the electrodes merely he never says that his heart condition is fatal (although it is heavily unsaid).

While in the alternate dimension, forth with Aster, he saves Sryus and Ojama Yellow from Doom Dozer. He as well battles the Kings minions with Aster to allow Jim Crocodile Melt and Axel Brodie to free Jaden from the Kings influence. Afterward this task, he decides to restore a traumatized Jaden dorsum to his former cocky but is unsuccessful as he didn't sympathize the extent of the trauma that being possessed had done to Jaden's psyche. He decides to Duel a Yubel-possessed Jesse in guild to fulfill his dying wish of being immortalized only is defeated and dies from his middle atmospheric condition. However, he manages to grant his wish by making his "Cyber End Dragon" an eternal symbol of his skill and strength. Zane's performance in the Duel and final words along with the wisdom of the others allows Jaden to put his problems aside so that he may face Yubel.

Darkness

Under unexplained circumstances, Zane washes up unconscious on the embankment of Duel Academy, with no explanation given to how he survived his heart failing. With his heart even so in poor shape, he is put under the care of his brother to recover. It is revealed that his heart condition was caused not by the electrodes but by his "Cyberdark" Deck. Zane too appears to accept a gentler personality than before equally he shows care and appreciation for those effectually him once again. He later Duels Makoto Inotsume, a practitioner of the Jinzo Art, who has made information technology his goal to destroy all those who practice the Cyber Art. The Duel takes its toll on Zane, as he becomes and then weak that he cannot even attain to his own Deck to surrender. Syrus attempts to do it for him, so announces that his brother will not surrender but will simply pull out of the Duel. Syrus then takes Zane's Duel Deejay to finish the Duel himself, simply comes to regret his conclusion every bit he starts to suffer the aforementioned centre problems every bit Zane, which the Deck attempts to inflict impairment more than quickly on Syrus after realizing that Zane volition no longer use it. Syrus overcomes this by "making the Deck his own" by combining it with aspects of his own "Vehicroid" Deck. After the Duel with Inotsume, with Syrus emerging as the victor, Zane allows his brother to keep the Deck, saying he will kickoff over with a new one.

Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D'southward

In the English language version of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D'due south, Cicatrice mentions Aster Phoenix and Truesdale as ane of the Duelists he wanted to Duel in the Pro League. Whether this was meant to imply Syrus, Zane or both of them is unsure.[6]

In the German version, Blister mentions Zane by name.

Relationships

Syrus Truesdale

Zane is Syrus' older blood brother. Both of them share a fondness for Machine monsters. When Zane and Syrus were kids, having already owned ii more copies in his deck, Zane gave Syrus a copy of ane of his favorite cards, Power Bail. Syrus was later confronted by a schoolhouse not bad in a Duel, and sezied the opportunity to employ Power Bond, but the Duel was interfered by Zane who bribed Syrus' opponent with a rare card, convincing him to pretend the Duel never happened and walk abroad. Zane told Syrus that he'd never exist able to use Ability Bail until he's truly a Duellist (in the dub, he said he would take never given Syrus the bill of fare, had he known he would misplay it). He then shows Syrus the confront-downwardly his opponent had on the field, Spellbinding Circle, which would have prevented Syrus from attacking with his fusion monster and caused him to lose on business relationship of Power Bail's final effect. Zane also told Syrus that he may know how to apply Power Bond, but there's more to Duelling than simply that.[7] Zane was always the more superior sibling to Syrus; he had the looks (though their mom always said Syrus had the looks),[viii] [ix] confidence, star able-bodied skills and e'er got successful grades,[10] thus, earning him a place at Duel University in Obelisk Blue.

Iii years later on since Zane joined, Syrus was enrolled at Duel Academy equally a Slifer Red, due to his low score in the entrance exam. Zane didn't consider his brother worthy or deserving of a identify at the academy,[vii] [11] until witnessing him defeat the Paradox Brothers, alongside Jaden in a Tag Squad Duel with UFOroid Fighter created using Power Bail,[12] proving that Syrus had learned how to play Power Bond rather than just use it (a lesson Syrus learnt watching Zane Duel Jaden).[11] From that day onwards, Zane realizes that his brother is worthy and deserving of his place at the academy.[ix]

When Duelling Camula - the second of the Shadow Riders - Zane was put in a tough position, when she used Illusion Gate to gain command of his best and favourite monster Cyber End Dragon and in the procedure offering Syrus' soul as the cede which would be offered to the Sacred Beasts should she lose the Duel. Zane was well prepared to counter and win the Duel, merely knew if he followed through with information technology Syrus' soul would be lost; he reluctantly stood down, allowing Camula to defeat him and accept his soul instead.[9] Zane'due south soul would later exist saved and restored, aslope Crowler'southward (previously lost), following Jaden's victory over Camula.[13]

A year later on, following his graduation from Duel Academy and advancing to the Pro League, Zane becomes a more ruthless duelist - later on enduring an Hush-hush Duel - and no longer values or respects his opponents, just victory itself. He returns to the academy in wake of the Genex Tournament to endeavour out his newly acquired Cyberdark deck. Syrus confronts Zane for a Duel to show him the significant of respect, that Zane himself taught Syrus. Zane accepts on the condition that they both wear Shock-Amplifying Devices which will provide them both with an electrical shock for every Life Signal lost throughout the Duel. Zane defeats his brother, who results into injury and is virtually knocked unconscious at the hands of the several electrical shocks. Zane but carelessly walks away, proving he truly has lost respect for everything over victory, even his own brother.[14]

The ii brothers are reunited the following year in Yubel's alternate dimension, where Zane saves his brother from Doom Dozer by calling on Cyber Stop Dragon. Zane learns from Ojama Yellow that Jaden himself has become more than ruthless due his obsession and decision with finding Jesse. Zane tells Syrus he has to stand up upwards to Jaden, like how Syrus stood up to Zane in their Duel. Zane leaves Syrus on his own, thanking him for the concern he had shown towards and for trying to save him for himself (in the dub, he tells Syrus that he can deal with Jaden on his ain and that he doesn't demand his help).[15]

Syrus later learns that Zane is suffering from a fatal centre conditions, believed to be on business relationship of the electric shocks he endured from the Shock-Amplifying Devices, during Surreptitious Duels.[16] Zane'due south heart about completely gives out afterwards losing his Duel to Jesse (possessed by Yubel). But before existence sent to the stars, Zane tells Syrus and Jaden to sentry out for each other and stay out of trouble. As he emotionally fades away, he tells Syrus that he is and always will exist proud of him.[17]
