Gong Strong, known as Noboru Gongenzaka in the Japanese version, is one of the main characters in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime. He is an old friend of Yuya Sakaki. He Duels using the "Non-Action" or "Heavystrong" style, known as "Steadfast" in the Japanese version, which means that even if he competes in an Action Duel, he refuses to search for Action Cards, standing firmly in the same spot. He is one of the Lancers.
He was voiced by Yohei Obayashi in the Japanese version, and by Billy Bob Thompson in the English version.
Overview[]
Gong is one of Yuya's friends; he isn't actually a You Show student due to being the heir to his family's dojo, but tends to hang around there a lot. He's an advocate of a method of Dueling he calls "Steadfast Dueling", which is taught by his family's dojo; basically the exact opposite of Action Dueling, it discourages unnecessary movement (and thus the use of Action Cards). Gongenzaka uses a Superheavy Samurai deck with no Spell or Trap cards at all, and many of his monster effects can only be activated when he has no Spells or Traps in his Graveyard. Superheavy Samurai can also attack while in defense position, using their DEF points for damage calculation. Under the tutelage of Yaiba, Gongenzaka adds Tuner and Synchro monsters to his deck to evolve his playstyle. As a member of the Lancers, he adds the Superheavy General sub-archetype of Pendulum Monsters to his deck.
Trivia[]
- Despite the fancy name of his duel style, Gong simply embodies the original version of duelng before Action Duels.
- He always speaks in the third person.
