Some people say chazz was goofed in season 2, and to that I have to say who else has single handedly created a cult that took over the entire school, ditched that cult, created another cult, then beat the shit out of the first cult all while winning a tournament?
I think what makes The Chazz interesting is how flexible his dueling is. He may not be the strongest. He loses a lot. But he was able to make fully functioning decks out of random weak cards while Jaden and his other friends stick to the same thing throughout.
hes like me trying to defeat people in the ranked arena in yugioh DL sometimes i harrass people to death with aroma mage decks but then amazoness deck gets me kicked in the nards 58 times and then red eyes gets me beaten to the dirt
To me Chazz is the best duelist in all of GX. We see him multiple times using a random slapped together deck and winning like it's no problem. Not sure many other GX characters could pull that off.
My mom is actually a Chazz fan. During the episodes in between his leaving Duel Academy and the North Academy episode, she was like "When is he coming back!? It is getting boring without him!" XD
"Who Cares if He's Richer than Me! AND So What if He's more Powerful! I'M Really Good at playing CARD GAMES! And That's what Life is Really All about Anyway!"
@@jlantern100 ...didnt kaiba build an elevator to outer space to complete a puzzle so he could time travel for an attempt to beat an ancient Egyptian ruler at a card game?
Chazz is such an adorable bundle of angst and weirdness, and I've loved him since forever. The whole thing with his nickname being something that the peeps at North Academy misheard and just ran with is pure gold, and I really like his personal journey in the show. Seeing him finally take that step into his dream in season 4 was really awesome, along with seeing everyone supporting him at the end. Also, Littlekuriboh going through GX and loving Chazz as much as us puts a smile on my Chazz loving face.
THE PROPHET HAS SPOKEN THE TRUE GOD IS HERE. Honestly tho his character arc is awesome. He goes from a pompous hate sink rival, to a fucking hilarious and constantly awesome 'friendly' rival, accidentally caused the apocalypse while trying to ge some ass, became the dad to an army of mutant gremlins in bikinis, fought a cult AFTER HE BROKE BRAINWASHING FROM SPACE SATAN THROUGH SHEER FORCE OF WILL ALONE, won the gx tournament, had a fucking helicopter duel, got turned into a zombie, died, came back, dressed as a giant ojama yellow, then he said FUCK THAT and finally became a real pro duelist after kicking fancy Boys ass. Also can we get a video about how utterly disrespected my boy bastion was you know the only one who acts like an actual yugioh player.
Something i absolute adore about chazz, is that his character is so versatile. He can be a goof ball then second later, become a serious threat (like he was in the society of light). he resembles joey for me, as like him, he could be the comedic relief but also a serious person with intense motivations.
"My love for you is like an Ojama I love you more than a trip to the Bahamas And even more than a Llama loves his mama. I love you in a dress, but also in pajamas." -The Chazz
one extra thing i didnt see you address is that chazz gets possessed early on is actually super important. even the enemy recognizes his strength. the possession arcs stakes were increased because "Oh shit, they got chazz. they have some major firepower now" and chazz would mow through the rank and file duelists like a lawnmower. he practically annihilated the numbers of the school both times when he was possessed singlehandedly.
@Big Johnny your right she was way to up tight and she only cared about Jaden because she only viewed him as important, Alexis in Gx is kinda the b word.
@@nelosparda4798 it depends if on which you saw the dub made it that yugi was a weak duelist but the sub makes that yugi was always strong but didn't have the confidence and backbone to believe in himself
Chazz is hillarious because he realized that, if he can't get rid of the Ojamas, he's just gonna make his whole deck out of them, and then ruthlessly mock his opponents for losing to a guy playing an Ojama deck of all things
Fucking finally, an analysis video worthy of Chazz "The Chazz" Thunder Manjoume-Princeton. Thank you. I gotta say, one of my favorite things about the Chazz is the adoption of the Thunder nickname. It wasn't even "Oh, we're going to give you this cool nickname out of respect"- It was literally an error. Chazz is an egotistical prick who likes to be referred to as "Manjoume-san", so the kids at North Academia heard his "Manjoume-san da!" in response to being called Manjoume and thought he was saying "Manjoume Sandaa", i.e., they assumed his name is in fact Manjoume Thunder- AND THEN HE JUST RAN WITH IT?? And so did everyone else! Nobody back home questioned why he was suddenly called Thunder. They just accepted it. Other characters would actually correct themselves if they accidentally referred to him as Manjoume instead of Thunder. Like holy shit
If anyone saw the bonds beyond time abridged: “and I’m jaden yuki, the cute hyperactive kid that everyone wants to choke” Pretty sure melonthot would like that last phrase reversed in a role
One thing that stands out with Chazz and his relationship with the Ojama Trio is that it also taught him the importance of brotherly love and that allows him to ultimately defeat his brother and essentially give them the bird for their abuse. In a way, the Ojamas were more brotherly than his own flesh and blood were.
@@Rahnonymous kaiba is great. Hes easily the most dedicated rival in the series and is over the top with everything he does. I cant see how you can call a man who stops guns with yugioh cards and owns a blue eyes jet garbage tier.
@@Rahnonymous Abridged or not, Kaiba was extra as fuck and I love him for it. The dude took over an entire city to play card games, built a tower in the middle of nowhere to play card games, created a goddamn Roman coliseum on top of the tower to play card games because the tower wasn't enough, then blew up said tower and escaped in a dragon shaped plane (which he built himself). He's a bazillionaire, he invented time travel, and he once laughed maniacally on live TV because he was sending trading cards to space to duel aliens. Oh, and he's petty enough that he'll name school grades such that his Egyptian God card is the best and Yugi's is the worst. He's not quite as vocal as Chazz - because who is - but he makes up for it by being so ridiculously over the top. If anyone can beat the Chazz, it has to be Seto freaking Kaiba.
"My love for you is like an Ojama, I love you more then a trip to the Bahamas. And even more then a lama loves his mama, I love you in a dress but also in Pajamas and you will always be my little lexy-rama". -Chazz
Don't forget about how he gave that guy the 1 card he needed so he could also get into North Academy. It's when Chazz shows compassion for the first time. Have to appreciate our side character growth where we can get it.
One important thing about the manga version of the character was that he is essentially the second most important character. But the two characters pretty much just share design and maybe some background.
I love this character to death. Best one from Gx without a doubt imo. He's just so relatable and entertaining as no other. Though definitely not perfect considering he was tossed aside by the writers in season 3 onwards.. and on top of that they even took away his deserved victory over Jaden from him. I will never forgive them for it. A lot of people don't like him simply based on the fact that he was very disappointing as a rival, which is a fair point. But we shouldn't ignore his remarkable growth and development throughout the series because of that. CHAD Princeton >>> Virgin Yuki and Edgelord Zane That's it.
@@bigguccimilli6186 I still consider him to be better than Reiji, who did almost nothing throughout the series. And his ""rivalry"" with Yuya was even more lackluster.
I believe there's something in japanese mysticism about being able to see spirits after going through an near death experience, so that's probably the reason he started seeing them
Fun fact the whole manjoume thunder bit is a pun: Manjoume San da means "I am Manojoume san". They did a similar thing with Fubuki where he always announced himself with the number 10 and then pointing his finger to the sky so I think it is pronounced join in japanese? Like Tenjoin, his last name. Gx was so cool bring it back please.
The sky part is the 'Ten' part of his name i think. In one episode he points towards the sky and says 'what do these eyes see?' Or something, so his fangirls yell ten and he yellls join. He has another pun where he calls himself 'blizard prince ' because his japanese first name means blizzard. Its so cheezy i love it
The fact that Chazz loses so often is, I think, one of the best parts of his character. He never gives up, never quits, or even loses confidence in himself. No matter how many times he gets knocked down, set back, or just fails, he is never afraid to put himself back together and start over from scratch, and that's truly inspiring. Look at the personal hell he gets stuck in by Darkness at the end of season 4, and exactly how he overcomes it. It shows how complete his evolution has been from his starting point of feeling pressured to always win no matter what to appease his brothers, to allowing himself to fail and start again and build himself back up, knowing his failures don't lessen him by measure. The Chazz teaches possibly the most valuable and true-to-life message of the whole show in how he grows up and finds his inner resolve. Chazz it up, indeed.
I think the issue is that for this to happen, they pretty much had to mishandle him first. In Season 1, he pretty much earned the win against Jaden and the plot probably would have a better flow with it too, but...yeah, didn't happen. And then there's pretty much an oof-parade for 2.5 seasons with him not even dueling in the better half of Season3.
I grew up on the dub so I personally love it, especially since it gave me some many laughs no matter how stupid it was. Reading most of the manga, I have to agree that I liked Anime Chazz better because he honestly had so much character and emotions, while yes he became pretty goofy at least he resonated with me, made me laugh, and felt genuine pride when be beat his brothers.
I legitimately just went on a rant about why Chazz was one of my favourite characters, and this got recommended to me the SECOND I pulled up RU-vid when I was done. Chazz it up, y'all.
It's easy to forget since he's not the main character and it's kind of glanced over But in the Society of Light arc, he did beat everyone in the school who wasn't a main character ... twice
Yep, though at least for gx - a crazy number of offscreen duel wins isn't that impressive considering the final boss of the show technically beat every living person on earth except jaden. Still though, both him and alexis have some crazy high win ratios thanks to their offscreen duels.
Gecko/amon: I gotta say I like your style bro. The Chazz: first of all my names the chazz, second what do you know about style your hair is purple snd you‘re wearing my mumd old living room curtains, well guess what it‘ time for a makeover. That will always be my favourite line from the chazz only second overall to adrians counter
This is the best video I've ever seen. Chazz was my favorite character when I was 11 years old and he is still my favorite now (I'm 25) ! This was so well made, thank you for making my day.
Anime Chazz sure is goofy, but he is definitely one of the strongest characters in GX. I believe that the writers always considered this as a fact , so each time they wanted to show how skilled a character was, they would have Chazz lose to them. However, he would always put up a good fight making me feel less angry 😂. I hope we could see him in action again, since he got new support cards for his deck.
Discovered today that almost all of the videos in the playlist are unwatchable, only 13 of those remaining out of 45. Big shame because of how many of the clips i loved as well.
when youtube finally nails it with a good recommendation anyways, chazz is literally the best character in gx, glad to see he's still getting love in 2020
5:34 Maybe being so close to death after almost drowning made his soul more in touch with spiritual stuff or something, at least that's my headcanon now
I can't believe you've managed to put the pure admiration for the Chazz in actual words, which I myself was unable to do. His being is too magnificent to try and describe him in mere letters
His nickname of “Manjoume Thunder” came from him correcting people on honorifics. Whenever people would call him “Manjoume,” he’d respond “It’s Manjoume-san!” or “Manjoume-san da,” pronounced like how they say “thunder.”
This is why Chazz is one of my favorite characters in the GX anime where he went through changes yes i love that you brought up when Jaden Lost against to Aster definitely Chazz cared for Jaden as Both a Rival and a Friend. This also Includes Jack Atlas from 5DS both him and Chazz started out as an asshole but throughout the series they seem to alot of character development unlike other Rivals. I'm looking at you Seto Kaiba
Jaden beating Chazz reminds of that time in the Speed Racer anime where the main character finds out his opponent is competing to try to win the prize money to save his sisters life, and speeds up.
I still bring my Ojama XYZ Armed dragon deck with me to locals, I get a couple laughs but nobody laughs when you chazz them up with armed dragon catapult cannon
Chazz could see duel spirits becuz he was dueling with a deck that he jusr assembled himself instead of buying it. He changed here as a person so it makes sense for him to see the Ojama cards, but It's a shame he never uses Ojama Red, Ojama Blue or Ojama Country in the GX series
Keep those GX videos comming, I love every single one of them so far!!! Amazing work, great retrospect and fantastic editing. I can tell you that I'm a happy subscriber. :P
In my personal head canon after the show The Chazz becomes one of the best pro duelist in the world became head of north academy and is running his family company
I only started watching GX based on your recommendation and boy, has it been a joy. Would love to see you do similar character studies but for now, I am perfectly content with this. Great work!
From watching your other GX videos, I was quite excited to meet THE CHAZZ. I started watching GX about two weeks ago (the dubbed since that's on youtube).
The sheer speed at which you've become one of my favorite YT channels is insane. With only a handful of videos, and I am honestly excited for more of your content. Also, the Chazz may not get all that many wins, but he sure as he'll won the hearts of people that watched his goofy ass.
I know many people will disagree but Jun Manjoume is my most favorite rival among all rivals in Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise. He had the best chatacter development and he used many types of deck and combined 3 of it later (VWXYZ/Armed Dragons/Ojamas) I think that's awesome enough. He also defeated 50 North Academia students, defeated Society of Light students, freeing them (also winning GX tournament) and he defeated his brother, Chosaku using 0 ATK point deck when the requirement were monsters under 500 ATK points Many people say Manjoume doesn't fit to be Judai's rival, Edo/Ryou would be better but... I don't think so. They didn't interacted much with Judai except dueling unlike Manjoume did He also defeated Edo in Season 4, and there was one duel where Manjoume supposed to win against Judai but he lost on purpose due of the order of his manager as Ojamanjoume, I always count that as a win anyway Overall, he's an awesome rival and an awesome character despite of his arrogant, stand-offish attitude. He may be a simp but I like that comic-relief part of his, it always bring smiles to me I didn't liked Manga Manjoume that much. It lacks so many things from his anime counterpart, which is why I like the Anime Manjoume more. Many people say Manga Manjoume is better due of the fact he defeated Judai two times. Though, Kid Manjoume is so cute to see
