The INSANITY of Yu-Gi-Oh GX 

big fan

It's THE King of Games in the flesh!

My hero

Thanks for supporting this channel LittleKuriboh.

Sup

And said genocides.

Also he rejected his main love interest in favor of Yubel, and let her inside him forever, then when Alexis was going to confess she just let him go away... Very fckd up.

​@@michellefernandez3155damn

PTSD from card games tends to happen to a lot of YuGiOh protagonists to be honest.

Correction: Children's card games.

Ah, I wish all three parts of the Abridged movie were still intact... I loved when they actually acknowledged Jaden's act of time-travel terrorism.

​@conspiracypanda1200 Search them by Google and you'll find them even still on RU-vid. Might be unlisted, but it'll take you to the videos.

​@@conspiracypanda1200still intact? Like one video or are there actually parts missing in the movie?

Whos Zarbarr??

Don't forget the most memorable laugh of paradoks HA HA HA HAHAHA HA HA HA HAHAHA PWOOOTAGONIS

Season 3 and 4: "Okay, you're done with with that. Now merge your soul with your Ex and use your combined powers to kill Satan. I believe in you Card Game Hitler."

"Now merge with your demonic anime waifu to stop her from killing the universe in a yandere rage"

Jaden:... WHAT?!

“What the fu-“ Crowler: ““And let’s not forget when you launched her into space and she went CRAZY from the Evil Light!”

My god that is so stupid.

​@@naamadossantossilva4736what you wanted them to use ancient duel monster Magic for him to forgot like they did to Yusei friend

​@@BlackfangDragon "Or that time you shot a different set of cards into space and brought them to life. Like, seriously. You gave life to a dolphin man, and a bird man, and whatever that glowing thing is. You're basically their god."

I guess he really did screw the rules.

don't forget the cards were drawn by a 7 year old and gained life through the gentle darkness

@@larsvanalstine16 He made his own rules.

And he, as Kaibaman, offs himself to summon his beloved white dragon with blue eyes.

And it fucking WORKED

I have killed so many people, everyones lives rest in my hands Hey Jaden, wanna play go fish?

this has got to be the worst analogy of all time

“I’ve seen everyone die before me” “Want play nerf”

bro he wasted those two guys in blue in that tag team in one turn lol without contribution from his teammate and then continues to bulldoze past most of the season. "Get your game on!" to "Let's get this game done"

​@@user-zn4sr1ll1cWell he did use Asuka's card...as fodder to power up his own lmao

I mean, even compared to the other 3 series of this show I've seen, I think GX might be the most chaotic. They all have their ancient magical BS to explain why card games decide the fate of the world, but GX feels like it has several different varieties that are barely connected to each other.

And gets you out of jail, which is why the prison guards are smart enough to confiscate your cards. And yet that somehow didn't stop prisoners from getting cards. Also the Zexal world literally revolves around a card that created it.

@@metanightmare4454 Nah my money on card game on motorcycle as number one entertainment in post apocalyptic anti utopian world

Not only that, in Zexal a guy stole a bank winning a duel against the alarm of the store

​@@metanightmare4454not really gx was three cards that threatens the world like the god cards,a guy who wanted to make a cult,a yandere who wants to kill everyone to have the protag,and a manifestation of humanity demise 5ds had guys with giant duel monsters that threaten the world and machine gods that went to the past Zexal was more chaotic a guy wanting all the number cards because he was possessed by a evil emperor of aliens and a war between three dimensions to genocide each other with the fighting over a thing that made the universe

The speech that inspired some card thieves to toss Winged Kuriboh back into his face.

aaaayyyyyyyeeeee i see you with the theme song reference. high five from a stranger bro

Yea and back in class they did not taught us this

sometimes u gotta learn hit or miss 😔

​@@mattiek.9672Tough times, hard climbs, we can go on together.

RIGHT NOWWWW!!!! LET'S GOOO!!!!

If only Yubel had the sense to convince lil’ Jaden to play Mystic Tomato, a lot of those problems wouldn’t of happened, lol

oh, so the other things he had on his mind... were electricity

Oh wow, that's way worse.

​@@RandoGrunt*wouldn't have "wouldn't of" is almost as brainrot as the plot of GX^^

@@RandoGruntAh but it was too late! Jaden had launched Yubel into space thanks to Kaibacorp where the Evil Light drove her insane! Then she spent years having her being tortured sent psychically into Jadens head until his parents had his brain zapped so hard he doesn’t remember!

Well he _did_ use to have chiseled abs when he was alive but with a tunic or whatever it is on he honestly looked no different.

the opposite of twink death

Had you wheezing, now you’re in Detroit.

I was going to comment the same thing. That line sent me into orbit

If anyone, Jaden was more of a twink than Yugi. Bruh...

Yubel mellows out after it happens.

​@TheAzulmagia that doesn't make it not a bit fucked up

Well you forgot bout the part where the embodiment of darkness shows up and captures the entire world expect for Jaden and they duel for the fate of the world

i mean considering an important thrust of s3 is how jaden/judai formed toxic friendships based on obligations of his strength, and how that leads to all his friends dying because of his crippling immaturity [and his obsessive attachment to the one friend, jesse/johan, until that point he didn't consider a burden in any sense], it is ironically probably the first actual relationship he forms [or rather repairs] in the series that actually features an equatable sense of give and take. which ya know, kinda goes to show how badly things in general have fucked up by that point. but hey, they get better!

He was Australian, thats why he had the Alligator.

Uhhhh actkhually jim carries a crocodile and her name is Karen 🤓☝️

The episodes where the cult brainwash Jaden’s friends one by one haunted me for years because I never saw the episodes where they’re snapped out of it.

@@VainerCactus0 Jim was the best. Also Shirley/Karen.

Yup, how most shows went for me as a kid with no cable too 😂 or when we had cable it be a few months and shows i return to things are seriously different and a bunch of weird stuff happened. For example in icarly they were all just friends and then suddenly freddy is dating sam and they got kidnapped for some reason and everything spencer makes catches on fire. Or for the avatar, aang was still searching for teachers then come back and he having nightmares about firelord ozai and is friends with zuko then suddenly there is airships and sokka may have accidentally murdered like 1k worth of men and aang took firelord ozais powers and he kissed katara who last i saw was pining for jet. And a ghost panda happened somewhere in there. But for the most part rarely had cable so i missed out on what happened in first yugioh, watched the start a lil bit and the whole pegasus thing and next thing i know we in yugioh zexal and then the one with motorcycles. But man i thought normal yugioh got weird with the forced puberty and the pharoh in me part and the battling to keep one soul, but this does sound extra crazy.

That doesn't make any sense.

​@@darksideofevil13Nothing in YuGiOh! makes sense.

"I can draw the card I want like a magician but it isn't cheating bro, I swear"

@@darksideofevil13 It's card muscles bro.

I've got abnormally good luck with dice, and I always like to tell people it is skill.

Just jojo

@@Rohan_Kishibe_Officialoh my gosh it is

That was no normal chimp, it was trained to be the third best duelist and if it weren't for its forth rate deck it would've won!

Oh that’s not all. Another world filled with monsters(that Jaden conquers and use to genocide). Amazon Weretigers wanting nerds to fuck. Jaden having to fight a DIFFERENT Evil Darkness Incarnate! The cards he made as a kid became REAL ALIENS IN SPACE! So on and so forth!

@@GenesisAkaG Well Jojo's has a non normal orangutan who can control a dingy to be a huge ship. So I guess they're even

Hey now, the Lovecraft cards didn’t get made until about ZEXAL.

This comment alone has me… unfortunately tempted to start watching all yugioh series just to try to comprehend this insanity

@@artemisfowldragon my brain has never recovered from watching every season and spin off of YGO ever since I was 9 but I’m gonna be honest it is the goofiest most silly series ever and if you never take it too seriously it becomes the coolest anime since cowboy bebop

@@artemisfowldragon Do it! Do it! Do it!

I mean, technically he puts people to sleep by being around them, but that's the least messed up part about it. The most messed up part is the whole keeping a kid in an underground lab. The show is wild.

@@anonymoususer188 I know, but in the dub they were clearly going for a weed joke

The fact it was also a Lebowski reference (kid’s name was Belowski) gets me every time

crowler: jail is such a ugly word we prefer "mandatory restraint habitat".

Wait what? So the GAYYYYYEEEST Man's childhood was underneath the Yu-Gi-Oh academy and possibly playing Yu-Gi-Oh? Disclaimer: when I said the Gayest Man, I am referring to an SCP number I don't remember since I barely remember three digits. And in SCP, the Gayest Man is basically what the comment said, a dude who can make people high with his very presence via something, idk maybe his pheromones was crack or something. He also referrers to himself as the Gayest Man alive, despite possibly not knowing what Gay actually meant. Oh and so you believe it's an SCP, he sometimes tells people to stop breathing because he had too many people following him, and they do it because they so far down the rabbit hole they will willingly stop breathing even when they pass out in an effort to please the Gayest Man.

I never watched the full thing, so all of this information is clubbing me over head.

@@zacharyrollick6169you have a lot to learn

@@zacharyrollick6169 Saaame. I remember what some of the characters looked like, and that’s about it.

Like those beyblade videos running around a few months ago

@@zacharyrollick6169 It doesn't help that 4Kids never dubbed the last season because it was too dark and weird. So you probably watched "the full thing" as it was available to you and the plot just...stopped before a conclusion.

Not all, it was shown he couldn't take Kaiba.

​@@FxCalibur I'm not convinced Kaiba didn't just weird it out too much

i mean to be fair, season 1 also had a man trying to kill minors, said man also drugging minors with performance enhancers, attempted murder on an older man, a comatose 7 year old from being hit by a truck, and a boy coming back from america after his two previous friends thought he died in a car accident

Hey now, the exorcising of demons happened on season 3. Season 2 was about using orphan Football players raised up as child soldiers drugged with a meteor to carry out terrorist attacks on schools through Japan while saying they were aliens and the protagonists getting increasing doses of PTSD. Then everyone plays a football game and everyone is happy again. At least until a guy tries to start a war with football in season 3...

Seriously... THAT nitpicky

​@@tonym.s7988 and then you know now's as good a time as any to start turning football into professional wrestling but somehow not have the general populous learn that it's rigged... maybe a bit too early let's actually wait 8 years

tru dat

You know considering the cards on the field and in each player’s hands it was actually mostly likely Jaden.

@@HappyPotatI don’t think that’s ever stopped Yugi before lol

Obviously.

Definitely

Or how they straight up just keep a keep isolated in solitary confinement because his ESP or whatever is so powerful it puts everyone around him in a hypnotic trance in a radius. Also there's like at LEAST three different duel monster spirits just roaming the island and at least two of them are evil and have possessed students before

@@floricel_112Don’t forget that Jinzo is a real spirit that answers any and all calls by children looking to communicate with Duel Monster Spirits, and eats those children.

​@floricel_112 are you forgetting all the ones that bother Chazz regularly, not including the Ojamas

How does one even draw cards from a *waterfall* ?

@@maxanimator9547 Luckily

You're missing out by not seeing 5D's. Zexal is also surprisingly decent once you get past the annoying 10-15 episodes when Yuma is completely braindead.

When the original is the most ground series there is a problem

5D's: Akira oops, no, gotta deal with Incan mythology and Illuminati oops, no, gotta waste time in anotjer tournament and time travel oops, no, gotta deal with cyborgs from the future that are *the worst* and messing with history. Also a western arc. Zexal: silly middle-schoolers love augmented reality, nonbinary ghostly twinks and extremely garish designs. Turns out heaven and hell are kinda sorta aliens, also life exists because a dragon cried. Also heterochromia in abundance. Sevens: in the not-too-distant future, a kid is fed up with stagnancy and fights back with house rules imposed on the system with a peculiar relic. Shenanigans happen constantly, eventually culminating in a giant robot fight in lunar orbit. Also lots of food. Go Rush: an alien soldier wants a path out of war, thinking card games could be the way to do it, despite not even knowing how to get cards _out_ of booster packs at first. Turns out all his people and those they fight were designed to fight forever, turning into T-shirts when they die, only to be recycled thru peculiar relics back to life. Also time loop? Also lots of cats.

@@christopherb501 Zexal also has power level scanner from Dragon Ball Z. I love that part of design.

5D's: A dad creates classism and kickstarts the apocalypse, which his son is forced to deal with using the power of motorcycles and dragons.

I love how early 2000s the American theme is with its pop punk sound. I get nostalgic every time I hear it.

way better ending tbh

That and Banner’s ghost is just, around, forever, inside of his cat. Like specifically inside of his cat’s stomach, pretty sure Jaden’s the only person that even knows Banner’s ghost was around at all frankly. Him and the cat, arguably not even the cat possibly, he just saw a glowing ball and ate it.

Also banner is a alchemist who made a homunculus body that falls apart after one duel so he hangs out as a ghost that's constantly getting eaten by his cat and in aformentioned duel, jaden debuts a fusion monster he uses all of three times because it sucks and after Banner dies, Jaden gets a Philosopher's Stone spell card (which banner was using as a bookmark in his Emerald Tablet which in this case was a book Banner was trapping everyone he defeats as a Shadow Rider in and it's his Shadow Charm) he uses all of once.

Bro wtf did the writers take while making the show

​@@spyridon7109not the craziest thing in Yugioh at all

She did not just die she wagered her soul on Illusion Gate, a card that destroys all your opponents cards and then let you summon any card you want at the cost of you have to wager someone in the rooms soul so if you lose after playing Illusion gate that person has to go to hell. She beat Zane by wagering his brothers soul causing him to avoid winning to not send his brother to hell, but when she dueled Jaden he had been given half rock from the irl card Gravekeepers Assalient come to life (she was pretty hot) and the other half of the rock from the primary antagonist of season four that when combined protected Jaden and his friends from being wagered and then the rock was never seen or used again. Since she still wanted to play Illusion Gate despite Jaden and his friends being off limits she arrogantly wagered her own soul to pay the "cost" thinking she could win since she spied on Jaden to know every card in his deck however he plays a new never before seen monster to turn the tables and she claims he cheated but he just says he thought the monster would be good against her and added it to his deck before the duel and she had no counter play for it and loses and goes to hell.

How that guy didn’t die from inflammation, infection, and a bunch of other biological issues is beyond us trying to make sense of card games!

And *that’s* not only how he was immune to getting brainwashed by the Light, it’s also what lets him astral project into a spaceosaurus at the last possible minute. Dino DNA is a modern wonder.

@@RandoGrunt Half the people in season 3 knew they were in an anime and broke the fourth wall all the time, I would not worry too much about it.

​@@RandoGruntHe dueld against the infections and bodily rejection and won.

why Venice specifically if they had the time and budget it would have been great if it was Duel Academy itself though at that point the main cast had graduated but they could have been having a reunion

In the undubbed season 4, Zane comes back. From having a heart attack. In another dimension. How? He washes up on the shore. No really, that's it. There's absolutely no further explanation or resolution. He's alive now and less evil, apparently. And the heart attack was due to his cards, not the electric shocks. Yes I know that contradicts what we said before, just deal with it! :p

@@professorhaystacks6606 yea that was always iffy but it gave Cyrus his chance to surpass him with him watching but it does cheapen his last duel with Dark Jessie a bit

​@@professorhaystacks6606 i think the only guy who actually died was that guy who revived exodia and sacrified his friend for it

@@chocchoci I wanna say it was left ambiguous. At the least he never showed up again. His friend became a duel spirit or something iirc.

Well Crowler should have started off mean but become the best halfway through.

Sounds like Ys. Adol Christin, the protag, is the chosen one. But not just the chosen one. He's the chosen one for multiple prophecies each located in a different continent. Stopped multiple potentially world ending calamities all within a mere seven years of traveling. Saves a blue haired girl every adventure. Can't pilot a boat without sinking it. Best friend punches hard and breaks walls like the Kool-Aid Man. It took like 7 games before one of his rivals breaks down and just shouts why HIM. AGAIN. WHY. No one even has an explanation and moves on to stop the next apocalypse beast of destruction. It's like if Link from Zelda was the same one dude in every game.

@@hyperweapon He just SHOWS UP, out of NOWHERE, slurping his CHOCCYMILK from his LITTLE MILK STIRRING TEASPOON, breaks your brain and then bloody LEAVES! Just like that!

Not the whole show.

@@DuelaDent52 honestly out of that the ones that were truly important and were left out was only Jesse and nightshroud pretty much, but all of what you said were subplots, all the plot of the story was cramped and honestly shown here pretty well. (He also mentioned the cards in space briefly anyways) and most of what you said are minor stuff and very nitpicky, heck the fucking girl who wanted to bang zane and Jaden ends up having more relevancy than the stoner and I dont think she influences the story enough to be worth mentioning anyway

Wonder what he thinks about the new dark matter beasties, which includes the creeper that can't keep his mommy kink under wraps.

I can do it in one minute Cards that threatens the world Cult of light Yandere killing everyone Humanity doom manifested

I think they only aired season 1 of Yugioh GX on Cartoon Network. It seemed like standard boarding school anime within the Yugioh universe at the time I watched it as a kid. Wtf is this really the plot? I thought it was going to just be about the new generation surpassing Yugi???

​@@Max25670 first season: old dude wants GX's equivalent of the Egyptian gods to be released and take over the world Second season: cult based around worshipping a light-diety threatens to take over the world. Jaden has existential crisis, meets with spaceman, and the cult is defeated. Third season: Jaden gets a new bestie. Old bestie is not happy and tries to get Jaden all for them selves by removing everyone Jaden loves from his life. Oh and if you lose a duel you either become a zombie or die. Fourth season: Darkness incarnate threatens to destroy the world. Jaden is on a "I don't give a fuck anymore"-spree and no longer duels for fun. But with the help of season 2 spaceman and session 3 old bestie (and a season 3 alternate genocide personally) they defeat the darkness. Jaden goes back in time, fights old protaganist. Jaden learnes to duel for fun again. Outcome is left ambiguous, but we can all guess how it ended.

"Sounds pretty tight, dawg. Me? I come from a kickass school that teaches how to play card games. We sleep on warm, comfortable beds and have hot food served whenever we want. _Aaah._ It's a gooood life." "Well just look at all the f%♣︎◆s I give."

Honestly from everything I've heard. The GX Manga sounds way better. That feels more like a natural follow up to OG Yu-Gi-Oh.

​@@darksideofevil13feels like it sticks to close to original to try to be it's own thing the anime had references to the original but they dint just nostalgia bait to just stay afloat

@@gameuniverse5973 I'm kinda mixed on this. I see what you're saying with it being more its own thing, and frankly the retcon to the duel monsters being from a different dimension makes way more sense than Ancient Egypt. But I also kinda like that they stuck to the established Egypt magic system mythos and tried to continue that? It feels more like a natural continuation of their world?

@@darksideofevil13 I always saw that ancient Egypt just use magic to bind and pull the monsters from the other dimension to fight for them mainly the stone tabs and Millenium items We see that duel monsters can cross to the human dimension whatever they want so they always been around just that Egypt learn to use them for their own benefit

@@gameuniverse5973 That would make more sense. I thought they just magically created cyborgs and other things far beyond their comprehension and time....

If it helps, the current show has more credulity. It would kind of have to, with cat-people that are conflict-avoidant, 3-meter-tall women that are work-avoidant, floating hats that duel by just waving a deckbox at each other and then knowing who will win thru precognition, and Jersey Devil aliens from a Planet Jersey that are always dressed in jerseys. Also an immortal boy-king that turns whole planets to ice because he's that bad a mangaka.

This is probably one of his many "kick Jaden out of Duel Academy" plans. He can't get Jaden expelled, but Crowler CAN make him leave of his own volition if he reveals his entire future to him. Jaden would be so thoroughly broken, that he'd never so much as pick up a trading card ever again!

Just you wait, the next three shows are worse.

Canonically, the first thing that was ever created in the universe was a card, in yugioh lore

I've got more for you buddy. There was a student who wanted to improve his luck stat for getting good card draws that he left the academy and literally became Tarzan to do so. S1 was built up for Jaden to be an Alchemist. The idea was scrapped. 4kids edited or straight up deleted tons of scenes in GX. I remember in S1. There was a bath scene where Alexis and her friends were talking about Jaden. 4kids gave them swimsuits. The swimsuits were so badly drawn on the girls. Another scene, Jaden was in a hot spring and out of nowhere a bear and something else starts cleaning his back. Why was this scene removed? Idk For S2, the domino city arc was meant to be a movie that included seeing Yugi and Joey iirc. But, the idea was scrapped. Oh yeah, remember that light force thing that tried to wipe out the earth? Jaden only defeated part of it. S3. This season was about Jaden becoming a hero like Jesse. Jaden had the heart, but he didn't know when to be serious. In GX Sub, Professor Viper's son got killed by truck-kun because he was trying to get his cards that flew into the wind heading to the road. Jaden literally went thru the 5 stages of grief in S3. This mf was living in dark souls in the other world. The manga for this series is very different. If you like reading, I'd give it a look.

Who else did he kill apart from Banner? I wanna say the American teacher, but I could have sworn he died in a separate duel.

@@DuelaDent52 uh, I don't know dub names, but ghosty mcalchemist, the maths(?) teacher, and then corba (buff mcbuttchin dude if his name is changed)

@@DuelaDent52 the maths teacher dies just before mrbeefy, he challenges Jaiden to a dark duel, gets set on fire and falls to a bottomless pit, while mrbeefy (Corba in jpn) falls to his death from the platform he's dueling Jaiden on when Yubel is pretending to be his adopted son

Jaden has to conquer like four or five different Shadow Riders and the headmaster with his not-Egyptian God cards whose very presence sucks Duel Spirits of their life force, and yet the ultimate hurdle in Season 1 is if Jaden can overcome a normal dude in Zane.

BBT is great

It was better when it was light-hearted balls to the wall insanity.

*and with a respectable protagonist. And not created by monomaniacs.

That's not all. He missed the part where Jaden dueled the in-universe equivalent of a grim reaper that used his edgy bat wings as a duel disc and they had a card game with all of humanity at stake.

Worse, it was electroshock therapy that was used to make him forget

Jaden's parents are dicks

Look on the bright side Chaz; it took 15+ years for his primary archetypes to get support for all of them all together. Heh…

Ojama Yellow is a spirit. Makes sense he isn't cold.

Chazz is 1 of the 2 rival characters across every series to have 0 losses on screen. The only reason he isn't considered the best is because he was too busy being awesome, while Jaden was off saving the world for the 3rd time that week or something.

@@Leo80221 Umm, what? Chazz lost like five times to Jaden.

​@@darksideofevil13 I think he meant losses to other people besides the MC
