From Power to Technique: The Chazz Princeton Story 

That's actually a really good way of describing his character! Then again, that's not even a bad thing! Joey was awesome!

Zane looks more like Kaiba than the Chazz i argue

Mind blow.

No. He’ll always be THE CHAZZ!

Yeah Zane is Kaiba

Agreed. Heck I liked his funny moments, but some of them were way too much.

He grew so much; I was proud of him! Oh Cronos/Crowler was cool too; maybe he gets a video. But I doubt it would be too long haha

Oh my gawd....HE'S JOEY 🤯

Completely agree. As much as I love this series, the filler during season 2 didn't help. I would've loved to see him actually have a full length duel; especially in the finals. Heck seeing him vs Blair's Mystic deck may have even convinced them to actually release her deck. Not only that, but with all you mentioned, him being considered #1 in the academy actually would've made sense.

Btw, question: How much free Will they have? When they were brainwashed they looked exactly normal but sometimes they look almost like zombies

He also held off the Truman Army (he was in 2 different areas fighting them) that was basically nerfing everybody with memory loss and inability to check the gy for some reason And essentially relearns the value of each card in s4 where they wanted to screw him over via win-loss ratios

@@Eric6761yeah That something to think about the chazz and Alexis were pretty much full brainwash but still kept there example though others fell through cracks biggest example is bastión since it’s implied he was never brainwashed and was just convinced to join as he remember that time and was able to just leave

Yeah, but you have to admit Chazz's redemption by leading the retaking of the school was epic

You’re damn right!

Definitely adding it to my reading list!

Ya he becomes a GOAT

Couldn’t agree more. When the characters repeatedly dump on someone, why should we believe that they’re any good? Chazz never really recovered in that aspect, if anything it made, his friends look like worse people, and oddly enough worse duelists; because most of their records were worse than his.

Did you know Bastion was actually a character at the beginning?! And then he just got wrote off in such a dumb way…literally streaking out of the academy only to be brought back and then stay behind in the other dimension with his ripped af muscle bae love interest.

Lol what? Did you watch Duel Monsters? One of the things that GX does WAY better is give their side characters far, far, far more screen time to do something. Don't believe me? How many duels do Tea, Tristan, Mokuba, Serenity, Duke, Rebecca, or any other character that isn't Yugi, Joey, or Kaiba duel in? Actually. Let's add Kaiba to that list because, while he is awesome, he doesn't actually duel THAT often. And most of them are losses. Cut to GX. We see a number of times having Syrus duel. Chazz duel. Zane duel. And combined all the side characters do WAY more dueling than then entirety of the DM side characters combined. In fact. Marik is a TRASH villain because he takes NOTHING BUT L's if those duels played out properly. The fact that he duesl through other people or live on his own only makes him WORSE, not better. So no, your statement about everything being about Jaden is straight up wrong. Hell, he barely does much in Seasons 3 and 4. Yugi is straight up more of the central character of his own anime. He takes fewer losses and even straight up uses magical powers to win.

On one hand, I enjoy that GX didn't have its own Kaiba and Joey to mirror Jaden's Yugi. It helped GX stand on its own, instead of just being a copy of the original. On the other hand... there's a reason most stories don't focus that hard on exactly 1 character at the expense of all the others.

In Shadow Riders arc, Chazz along with Alexis defeated Shadow Riders too, not only Jaden. In Season 4 Chazz vs Jaden duel i am not so sure that Chazz would have won, because Jaden still had one card in his hand, if was des-fusion the Chazz's trap Chthonian Polymer would have lost the target having not effect , leaving him with no monsters in the field and Jaden with two monsters to direct attack.

I agree! There was a coolness to it that the dub didn't really do. Then again, I'm not gonna act like the dub ain't ridiculously fun!😆

@@animeegotists7527 I think the dub is fine, my only beef with it is that they sacrificed a lot of plot explanation and character moments to fit more jokes and 4th wall breaks

@@LabMatt Yeah, I can definitely understand that being frustrating. Someone asked if I'd be willing to do a sub vs dub comparison video for Yugioh. But that's gonna take a good minute.

@@animeegotists7527 But I think some of the changes they made for the sake of comedy were genuinely good. Like the big burly dude Zane fought in his cage match having a high-pitched voice. It caught me so off-guard and I love it.

It was 4Kids dubbing it. Would you expect anything different from them? Still loved it, though.

Yeah it’s crazy how he can be one of the coolest characters at times! And yeah, I still love GX, but not all of it holds up.

That makes him look even better!

Yeah I can kinda see it. Also those are there Japanese names? Dang those sound way better than Slade and Jagger. 😆

I can agree with that in some aspects; that being said I don't think Jaden would've been heartless for that. Chazz would have been furious if Jaden let him win. In the end, I don't necessarily think he had to lose, but I don't think it ruined him per say.

@@animeegotists7527 I should rephrase that, Jaden's logic was slightly naive. It did end up working out for Chazz, but I think Jaden's assumption that beating Chazz would make him see that nothing bad would come out of it was slightly flawed. Just because he also failed to consider that Chazz would be taking a big loss on live TV, likely humiliating him even if it wasn't intentional. Plus, as we learn in Season 4, Chazz and any inspiring pros apply to firms and wait for their acceptance and rejections, so a big loss on live TV could hurt Chazz's reputation among them. I do agree overall that it doesn't really hurt Chazz as Character because he is still one of the best characters in Yu-Gi-Oh. Chazz it up! But I always felt that Chazz beating Jaden as at least once would have kept the rivalry a bit more exciting.

@@rich355 I can understand that. I guess in a way it works for me because it stayed consistent with Jaden‘s character: even if he loses he doesn’t see it as the end of the world and that’s what he was trying to teach Chazz. Granted with that logic Jaden should’ve lost more duels than he did. Definitely agree with the last part. Him beating Jaden definitely would’ve made a stronger case for him. The last duel they had really made no difference for Jaden to win.

@@animeegotists7527 I think jaden losses number is fine. The fact that he wins almost always make very meaningful every loss he takes: You know someone is a big deal if jaden actually loose. It's just that other characters should be allowed to take major w more often without jaden needing to take over their duties every single time

They should've given him some medicine or something. That could've been contagious!

He was smoking too much! Or puberty struck him again.

Oh god Mad Dog was…something else.

your telling me Mad Dog was a parody......Of mike tyson......

Of course! It gets kind of frustrating to see Jaden do everything. The Chazz deserves some love!

Love it; perfectly describes him!

I found his story to be the best part of season 4! It was good stuff for him!

Thanks so much!

Thanks for the nice words! I know a little more about Jack, so I figure that video is probably coming sooner. But I will definitely get to Anna someday!

@@animeegotists7527 kaiba is an overrated rival and a push over

Same here; I grew to love using Ojamas in duels!

Hey thanks so much I really appreciate that! I hope I can find ways to keep entertaining you guys!

Honestly, two big things are holding him back from getting more views and subscribers: inconsistent content and thumbnails. For his character analysis, the thumbnails are very high quality. Take, for example, his Bastion video reached 17K views, most likely due to a compelling title and great thumbnail. In contrast, many of his other videos may share the same high-quality content, but the thumbnails hold him back. While the second reason isn't focusing on a specific niche, instead focusing on all different types of anime content: Naruto, Dragon Ball, Yugioh, etc. While this is completely fine, it's harder to build a channel that isn't focused on one topic/community. It's why many people encourage newer creators to first build a loyal fan following by targeting a specific fanbase/community, then start to expand further via side channels or uploading different topics once you've established yourself. Also, I'm definitely not saying that you need to focus on a single topic, just that statically it's harder to grow without a specific niche. At the end of the day, as long as you are consistent and enjoy creating content, that's all that matters :D

It never gets boring, that's for sure!

Comments like this always make the hard work worth it. Thanks so much; I'll keep working harder!

Season 1 or 4 would've been perfect for that. Even just one win would've been cool.

​@@animeegotists7527 agreed on Ojama fueled VWXYZ win, or even XYZ discarding Ojama Yellow to destroy Neos or Shining Flare wingman would've been cool. Like he had the powerful cards but It wouldn't have happened without the Ojamas support. Granted the card pool and support was limited but they could've made it work. Now if they had a scripted duel it'd be great and people in the live audience could cheer.

To this day, I still think he would've suit better in defeating/drawing Emperor Jaden than axel. I love volcanic, but character whise the Chazz was more fitting due to his old time rivalry with him. Also imagine the scary and edgy emperor getting defeated by ojama yellow..... The memes that would've spawn..

Thanks so much for the support!

Thanks for the love! I agree, he should've had a bigger focus..kind of like most GX characters.

Thanks for the support; he’d have been even better if done right.

@@animeegotists7527 I can't agree more.

He is my second favorite after Bakura.

Thank you very much!

I would love that! Heck, with all the times Jaden beats Chazz, I wouldn't even be upset if Chazz won in the end!

Thanks so much! I can definitely do one on Anna, I’m dangerously close to starting Zexal!

Thanks for the kind words; he was awesome!

Or a God damn Chazz chant...I'm sorry, I had to.

True but I feel like Kaiba had more definitive wins than Chazz did. Kaiba felt more like a threat in general.

That man is a menace!

Yeah, I mean the Neo Spacians kind of were different, but not really. Chazz really got some great moments with his new decks!

Chazzberry pie! The Chazzmanian Devil! Chazzalicious!

Chazz it Up!!!

Thanks 🔥

You’re not wrong on that

I agree! As ridiculous as it is, it does remind me of how my friends talk to each other! It was a fun ride!

After giving the sub a shit for this video, I it’s pretty addicting to chant.

It's okay, bud. No shame in Chazzing it up...no matter what people tell us haha!

@@animeegotists7527 I fucking love Chazz it up. I don't care what the haters say lol

For me, they are more like "friends", not positioning themselves as players. But when you have a whole academy of duelists whose main task is to fight and win, please, give them a normal win rate and time to shine

@@user-mq7ff8bc9n Yes, they not doing much of dueling except on filler is kinda baffling

He can hardly contain himself sometimes haha!

He's got a lot of great names to go by haha!

I'd love that, considering how much he's grown!

Everyone should've gotten a good arc of focus; it could've been so good!

Not against that at all!

Couldn't agree more!

I knew his voice sounded familiar😂

He did?

Chazz it UP!

Ehh Don't expect much from him in that season

@@Eric6761 Yeah, I know. He’s still a great character but honestly, I just started watching GX for Yubel. Any other characters are a bonus but they’re my main reason.

@@tlkfanrwbyfan8716 Wait, are you watching for yubel? Huh talk about weird but i have to say, Chazz is the best

@@Eric6761 Yeah, Yubel is one of my favorite characters in the entirety of YGO and I’m watching the sub so their character hasn’t been butchered. One of the best antagonists of the series to me.

Ooh boy Yubel...they and Season 3 are another topic for another video.

Thanks for the kind words! I’d consider doing a Syrus video; then again he’d definitely be after a handful of others haha.

Probably my favorite moment of his

Oh gosh, I'm so sorry! On the plus side, you can use the catchphrase for yourself😂

It can't compare to being named Jacob and growing up at the height of Twilight's popularity.

CHAZZ IT UP! EVERY DAY!

He is awesome!

He was downright ridiculous. He maybe that’s why I like him so much. Then again, the whole fourth wall joke thing probably runs in his family.

I need to work on controlling that😂

@@animeegotists7527 No worries XD I'll blame the boy next door

That I could definitely vibe with; especially since he ended up winning the tournament in the first place!

@@animeegotists7527 exactly, plus the Tournament was secondary to Jaiden as he'd go on to duel for the key Sartorious gave him on top of that. To me, that would have been the best route to go with the Duel.

It does; plus I'm more used to Chazz than anything else.

Chazz it up!

I love him!

Maybe he should be a doctor at some point😂

Based on what I’ve seen from Sylvio, i’m gonna be sad to see him lose on a regular basis. But maybe I’ll talk about him another day. Yeah I don’t get it either, I don’t really care for season four myself, but him winning was awesome. I’m perfectly fine with Aster losing to him here. I’m not entirely sure why people have a problem with him winning here.

​@Anime Egotists The people who are mad about Chazz winning feel that way because Chazz' win came out of nowhere basically with no development and very tell-not-show after he spent so much time doing practically nothing value after season 1. He was usually either losing or getting brainwashed for most of seasons 2 and 3, so it made no sense for him suddenly to win against Aster, a duelist who not only defeated Zane and Jaden, but the world champion of the Pro Leagues, D.D., as well as taking a much more proactive role in Darkworld and held his own against Adrian much better than Chazz did, and as seen in season 4, Aster had himself on a serious training regimen in a real professional dueling job. Yet we are supposed to believe that Chazz is suddenly better than all of that somehow. It was sloppy writing to just throw Aster into season 4 to be a dueling punching bag. It would have made more sense if they had showed Chazz actually being trained by Aster and having to lose to him a bit first and learn more about how the Pro Leagues operated too, and if they had given Aster another duel where he wins against a different major character. But they didn't do any of that. So, all of these things are reasons why some people are rightfully upset by Aster's loss here. Character development shouldn't be about tearing down another character.

Plot armor really finds a way to hurt our favorites...

THUNDER! THUNDER! THUNDER!

He'd be so proud of your dedication to The Chazz!

CHAZZ IT UP!

One of the best seen in a minute!

Aw thanks a bunch!

I have heard!

I would've loved seeing it!

Especially since in the sub they keep calling each other 'Number 1/2'. Them trading wins and loses could've been cool throughout the series.

Thanks to my editor I have some nightmares about that😂

Agreed, although somewhat of a guilty pleasure and a little bit hilarious at times, it did nothing to help him.

@@animeegotists7527 Like it honestly made me sad for him.

Honestly would’ve liked both of Alexis’s friends to be more than damsels in distress. How they were in Obelisk Blue is beyond me for the little screen time we got to see them dueling. I would’ve been fine for one of them to be with Chazz if they got proper development.

@@rxanime535 Nah, we need somebody whose going to be his perfect match. Like Jasmine and Mindy were too dimwitted for someone as cool as him.

@@rxanime535 Yeah it really makes Obelisk look bad if almost all the girls lose on a regular basis.

I love that card! That would’ve been a really cool addition to his deck!

From everything I've seen, he seems cool. Not that I've seen too much of him. But even with my complaints, I do appreciate some of the humor the anime gave him: in some ways, it helped separate him from Kaiba.

I'd rather he just straight up win.

@@animeegotists7527 And I do agree, but it does show he rivaled Jayden if not surpassed by that point. If it wasn’t for Yubel, no doubt Judai would have struggled a bit more with the influence of Darkness.

Thunder!

@@animeegotists7527 Wrote that at the start of the video. Thankfully you actually brought it up

It's a really fun show!

Yeah that adds up.

Definitely on the list.

I have heard such.

Completely agree. I would've loved Chazz to get a legitimate win over Jaden. Doing that might've made him my absolute favorite rival; and it would've been well earned!

@@animeegotists7527 agree cuz when it comes to rivals they have their fair share of wins against the protagonist like shadow sasuke and probably others

Absolutely. She's probably after a particular 5Ds video, but Alexis will get a video very soon. That being said, my thoughts on Alexis are going to be interesting for sure.

@animeegotists7527 "interesting" sounds scary lol, but I'm looking forward to it! People write her off a lot but she's always had a lot to like for me! One of the only characters in season one we didn't See lose to a shadow rider (imo because her and chazz losing would have just felt wrong but they had to write jaden as the last one somehow.)

I need to give the manga a chance.

My two favorites for sure!

I definitely need to give the manga a chance.

Part of me feels like he could've been a bit nicer. At the same time though, part of his attitude is what makes him Chazz.

Sanda!
