Heartland City

Heartland City is a location in the Xyz Dimension in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime. It is an alternate universe version of the Heartland City that appeared in the ''Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL'' anime.

History
Heartland was initially a peaceful city, where many enjoyed Dueling. Yūto, Shun Kurosaki, and Ruri Kurosaki grew up here.

Heartland City (and the Xyz Dimension as a whole) was invaded by Academia, who proceeded to rampage throughout the city and seal its populace into cards. During his invasion,Yūri carried out a mission to kidnap Ruri just after having kidnapped Rin in the Synchro Dimension's City. He was pursued by Yūgo of said dimension. Yūgo witnessed part of the invasion and subsequent sealing of the civilians into cards. Having noticed that Rin's kidnapper had a face similar to his own, Yūgo mistakenly confronted Yūto, who in turn assumed that Yūgo was an agent of Academia. The Duel ended in no result when Shun and other survivors arrived to the scene. These Duelists eventually banded together to help form the Resistance.
