Season 2: More exciting than season 1, but I still haven't finished watching it. Sartorious tries to brainwash the world using the Light of Destruction, and Jaden gets the Neo-Spacians... (Elemental Hero Neos FTW)

Season 3: Jaden turns kind of mean to his friends and starts hanging out with Jesse. Cobra tries to use Duel Energy to bring back Yubel, but he ends up dying. Yubel then takes the whole school to a weird dimension, and pretty much everyone turns into zombies. Jaden and Jesse face off against Yubel, and Jesse summons Rainbow Dragon so that everyone can go back hime. Everyone makes it back, except for Jesse, so Jaden goes on a mission to get Jesse. Pretty much all of Jaden's friends follow him to another dimension, where all of them get killed, except for Syrus and Crowler, and Jaden duels Yubel and saves Jesse. This time, everyone besides Jaden makes it back, and all of the people that died came back. Jaden comes back on the last episode of this season.

Season 4: Jaden becomes a hot emo douche and stops hanging out. Everyone is sad that he changed, so Alexis confronts him about it. They have a tag-duel with Blair and Hassleberry, resulting in Jaden and Alexis winning. Alexis almost tells Jaden that she loves him, and Jaden thanks her for helping him see the fun in dueling. After that, everyone starts disappearing because of Darkness, and Jaden ends up being the only person left. He duels Darkness and wins. In the last episode he duels Yugi, and we don't get to know the results of that duel, It ends with Jaden running of into the desert.

That's it. Any questions?

I do love it when people say they don't know the results of the Yugi vs Jaden duel.

Well, allow me to fill you in:



...with 5000 ATK.

No offence to Jaden or any of the GX fans, but HOW THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO WIN IN THAT SITUATION?!

[CosmicAce]

You don't. But apparently, it's always a good idea to go out with a BANG!

[Chimeratech17]

...fair enough. And cannoning your trump monster into a FREAKING EGYPTIAN GOD is probably the best way to do that.

[SupermewX300]

a question, which came first, Slifer or Neos. Because if it was Slifer then imma laugh.

[Light_Kaiba]

It was Slifer.. I think. If you are talking about when it showed up in Yu-Gi-Oh, then definetly Slifer, but if you're talking about the episode then I'm not sure.

[SupermewX300]

Episode Obviously, Yugi has Slifer from Season 2 of original, and Neos turned up after the start of GX, so obviously Slifer appeared first. Do you think I'm a stupid Yu-Gi-Oh n00b?

[CosmicAce]

Neos. Slifer was summoned at the last turn of the duel, while Neos was out on the field for a long while. /late Khaoseru is late

THANK YOU. Someone who DOESN'T hate GX. I am so sick of "GX sucks. :V", and "y u watch GX? it's shit". I fucking LOVE GX. Especially the intro.

I really dislike Syrus, though. Little twit is so annoying. He makes me want to watch a series based on fucking MOKUBA. [ No, not a fucking porn video, you twits. A "series" that would have Mokuba as the main character. ]

My favourite character at the moment, would probably be Jaden. (Surprised?) Mainly because he's so positive, and happy. ...And has an E-Hero deck. That stuff is just total fucking win.

[eternity]

I have a serious question that's serious, and needs a serious answer.

... I'm re-watching YGO GX. Once I finish the dub, should I continue watching the other episodes?

[SupermewX300]

Nah, read the Manga, 50x better than the anime (probably)

Also, I now have Volume 6 of the Manga (yay, E hero The Shining :D), and it did not dissapoint. Full of badassery from Chazz, Zane, Jaden, and Winged Kuriboh (best character). Glad to find out that Naoyuki is just as annoyed as I am that Light and Dark End Dragon are Synchros in the TCG. Plus, a sneak peek at Aster, and oddly enough, his relationship with Reggie.

[CosmicAce]

... Why am I more curious than ever now?

[SupermewX300]

Because Aster's awesome.

[eternity]

I found Aster to be a dick. >__>

[Light_Kaiba]

Totally. Aster was annoying as hell.

[CosmicAce]

So I actually bothered getting Volumes 3 to 6 with some Border gift cards. My cousin opened the 6th volume and found the pages with the transfer students.... GOSH, SUCH STICKS. I forget sometimes.

I would like to point out that Jaden defeated The Winged Dragon of Ra in season 2 (episode 85) of GX without so much as breaking a sweat.

It's fun to think he defeated Yugi and I think he did. Heck, the opening episode title of GX is "The Next King of Games."


Regarding GX itself, I kinda got bored with it as it headed into Season 3. A lot of the characters were either boring or unlikeable but I did enjoy watching Jaden, Zane, Jesse, and Hassleberry.

I have to agree with an above post; Aster was a hard nut to crack and a bit of a jerk. I could never tell whose side he was on.

Another issue I had with GX was the lack of threatening villains and the insane number of filler episodes.

Overall, I can't say GX was all that great but I can say that a lot of the characters were awesome and memorable.

[CosmicAce]

I only glimpsed at this before going into deep thought. /goshdarnit me

...And I realized he doesn't become king. Nah, after time-traveling/dimension-traveling/I don't know anymore to duel some AU!Yugi [maybe] (and to clear up the other children going what, apparently Judai finds Yugi in the universe where a Battle City 2 just took place) and getting his butt kicked... what Judai becomes is a messiah of sorts to connect people with spirits. At least, that what he says after ending up at a desert, no?

Don't get me wrong, the idea that he beat Yugi sounds fun... but it's a miniscule idea, especially after pointing out that he never stopped Neos from attacking Osiris/Slifer.

I don't think he would have attacked Slifer if he didn't have a means of strengthening Neos or debilitating Slifer.

[CosmicAce]

But he did. And to quote Janime's episode summary about what's happening at the final moments of the duel.

"Judai-kun", Yami Yugi says, "You are a great duelist, and you deserve to have God as your opponent". Judai smiles, looking very happy. "Yugi-san", he thinks, "I'll never forget it...the best and most precious moment you've given me!". Clenching his fist, he exclaims that dueling a great opponent like this is making him very excited. If that's what he desires, Yami Yugi says, then the true decisive game starts right here, and Judai agrees with him.

Judai stands with Winged Kuriboh and Yubel appearing at his side, while Yami Yugi stands with Kuriboh and Yugi appearing at his side. "Thanks to you", he thinks, "I've gotten it back...that thing I've lost all this time and that I haven't been aware of. It's something that, when I become an adult, I can't forget". He then bravely declares E-Hero Neos's attack, as Neos flies towards The Sky Dragon of Osiris.

Yami Yugi and Yugi stand side-by-side in awe of the attack, as Judai thinks, "No matter what happens, I won't forget it...I'll always have it...the feeling of joy in a duel", Judai thinks, looking at the last moment of the fight between his hero and God, as it all fades to white.

tl;dr version: Judai attacked because he had fun dueling again. If he was still that emo self that we've been dealing with this whole season, he proooobably would've done something different.

That, and it's Yugi and Yami Yugi. Everyone squees when it's Yugi... and Yami Yugi. :V

[ggctuk]

Did Jaden have anything face-down at the time? If not, there's absolutely no way he could have won against Slifer.

[CosmicAce]

I don't recall any. Just one Spell on the field and he was doing some combo with other spells before Yami Yugi summoned Osiris.

[SupermewX300]

Well, actually, if Jaden had Honest in his hand (which is quite possible, so long as he still has a hand), then he could very easily used it to boost Neos to 2500 more ATK than Slifer, making it entirely possible for him to win. However (and keep in mind that I haven't seen the episode) from what I've read, it seems that Jaden's attack continues too far by the end for him to use the effect. But he could have. So it was literally either duelist's game.

[Light_Kaiba]

I couldn't really say much since it's been an awful long time since I've seen the episode, but I think they left it like that so fans could chose whoever they wanted to win. I don't know. I think they should've shown the whole duel.

[angel of darknezz]

I admit, I used to hate this seires with a passion. I thought it was a cheap rip-off of the original, but one day I decided to give it a shot. Oddly enough, I became addicted. I now like it just as much as Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters. I watched every episode of it. I even decided to try Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds. I like it, so far... and who knows? I may try Zexal if I get really bored (although I hear it's good so far) :p

I have seen all the GX episodes in both Dub and Sub. Quite honestly, I love both versions. I do understand why people dislike the Dub, but I kinda like the english voices... although, I'm sure people will disagree with me on this but, I thought Jaden's(Judai's) voice in english was appropriate.

My favorite characters in GX are Chazz Princeton (Jun Manjoume) and Aster Phoenix (Edo Phoenix), but mostly Chazz. I think his crush on Alexis (Asuka Tenjouin) is really cute. It surprises me how many Johan (Jesse Anderson) fans there are O.o

I liked Zane Truesdale (Ryo Marufuj) in the first episodes, before he turned dark. Back when he was less emotional. I liked how he was the only character who did'nt flinch from the attack of a HOLOGRAM (y'know, the one with no physical presence) >.>

[Logi]

Since I read something about the Yugi vs Jaden battle, what number has this episode?

To get to the part with Mokuba: If they would make a show about him they should use his Season 0 version because this one is twisted.

[CosmicAce]

Yugi vs Judai - episodes 179 (second half) and 180. :U

[eternity]

I am still watching GX.
Well, not now because sleep is soon.

But, I personally enjoy any "real" encounters with the monsters. You know, when they're in an alternate world, or something. Reminds me of the Seal of The Ori-whatever ark in the second season of the show. (Yu-Gi-Oh!). Before it got boring.

[eternity]

So... 4Kids stopped dubbing GX when Jaden and Yubel went off some place, eh? Huh.
I watched the next episode subbed, to see how Jaden came back.

I do want to watch the rest, but with such silly and lame voice work for the characters, as well as the weird names, it's not happening.

In other words...

English Dubbed > English Subbed.

[angel of darknezz]

^

That's a rare opinion, considering most people criticize the dub for, well... everything. It's nice to see that some people actually LIKE it instead of just saying,"OMG! It sucks!".

[Chimeratech17]

I enjoy the dub. It's fun and quirky in its own way.
