Yu-Gi-Oh! Beyond the Rules

In a parallel city that thrived on a trading card game, duel results determined everything from education and careers to social status. Students clutched their deck boxes like exam admission tickets, booster packs occupied the most prominent spots in convenience stores, and the Blue-Eyes White Dragon forever flashed across enormous neon billboards. An ordinary high school student whose grades barely scraped by the average and whose shabby deck had frayed edges thought high school would be all about getting through exams with his younger sister Ling Xiaoxi, trading insults with his friends, and occasionally winning some pocket money in card duels. Then, on the day he started school, the boundary between dreams and reality began to blur, and a girl who was both familiar and unfamiliar led him, little by little, into an unseen world beyond the exam hall., This isn't a story about a genius dominating the world. It's about an ordinary person learning to play his own card in a world where everyone gets to play.
