"
Phantom Knights", known as "
Phantom" (
Fantomu) in Japan, is an
archetype used by
Yuto in
Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V. It contains one sub-archetype, "
The Phantom Knights".
Due to their Japanese names, a number of unrelated cards, such as "
Grass Phantom" and "
Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon", also fall into this archetype. However, because
OCG support for this archetype only works on
Spell and
Trap Cards, this is not an issue.
Yuto, spelled
Ute(
Yūto) in the Japanese version, is one of the characters in the
Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime. He is the
Xyz Dimension counterpart of
Yuya Sakaki (
Standard Dimension),
Yuri (
Fusion Dimension) and
Yugo (
Synchro Dimension), and one of
Z-ARC's reincarnations.
His name was first mentioned on-screen in episode 21; before that, his name was displayed as
Unknown on-screen and he was called
the Dark Duelist in promotional materials and the
Dark Masked Duelist by characters in the series. He is a Duelist of
the Resistance, despite his peaceful and harmless nature. After he lost to Yugo in a Duel, Yuto was absorbed into Yuya - still having
strange reactions whenever prompted by an external stimulus. One such reaction eventually allowed him and Yuya to communicate mentally.
