New ‘Yu-Gi-Oh!’ Debuts in Germany

The series will be a part of Yep!’s ProSieben Maxx platform in Germany and German-speaking Austria and Switzerland beginning this month.

“We are very excited to continue Yu-Gi-Oh!’s successful relationship with Yep!, which has been airing installments of the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise of animated series daily since fall 2013,” says Kristen Gray, senior vice president, operations and business and legal affairs, 4K Media. “Yep!’s focus on action and animation programming really appeals to boys and makes it the ideal home for Yu-Gi-Oh! in Germany. We’re so happy that what started with the ‘Yu-Gi-Oh! GX’ series and has expanded to include ‘Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal’ and ‘Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds,’ is now debuting ‘Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V.’ Thus, this further demonstrates the franchise’s ability to attract and hold the attention of boys in the 6 to 13 age group for Yep!”
