I'll say this, Yu being jumped by Argo does make sense as Argo is actually strong and his bey makes it pretty easy to damage the beys of others plus he surprised Yu, so this one makes sense. What doesn't make sense is him getting jumped by the other 3. Like come on, let Yu actually be a menace like he was in Fusion and actually mess with Garcias before he destroys all 3 so Argo has to step up and nerf him. He also should've defeated Enzo. That would be enough, I wouldn't be mad if he lost to Selen due to Libra's condition and he would already get revenge from Enzo and that would be enough.
Hey don’t diss Yu on that, he actually held his own and was actually beating them even though they were jumping him. Argo is the only one of that rat family that’s actually strong so that’s not a very heavy loss
@@megamask3158 It shouldn't be "he held his own" though as Yu certainly is stronger than all of them and it's not like he didn't deal with worse with a smile on his face.
Yu may have gotten powercreeped, but he had some of the most enjoyable dynamics in the series. His friendships with Tsubasa and Tithi are very wholesome.
But Yu wasn‘t as „passionate“ as Kenta was. Yu was more fun and intense battles whereas Kenta always wanted to become better soo bad. Yu already started as a strong blader and Kenta did not
I like Yu and Tsubasa's relationship. When Tsubasa joins Dark Nebula, Yu doesn't like how cocky he is. In Masters he warms up to him by defending him when Ryo tries to kick him out and helping him control the dark power. He even called him out on his elegance lol
Yu was proof of Metal Fight's weird, inconsistent character power scaling. It's crazy how he easily got folded by other characters that couldn't be considered Main Characters in MM, when he was nearly as powerful as Ginkga's father in Metal Fusion.
Yu is to this day my favorite Metal Fight Character. He’s such a charming little guy and although people consider him annoying, I love his personality. They really did him dirty in Masters and although he was better in Fury, he was just as sidelined. He had potential. Wish he got a new bey too.
It actually would have made a lot of sense for Yu to get the arc that Kenta got in Metal Fury. Considering the fact that Yu really liked Ryuga in Metal Fusion, I think it would have been interesting for these two to reconnect after Ryuga basically showed that he cared for no one other than himself in Metal Fusion. Not saying I dislike the Kenta and Ryuga relationship, I love the arc, but it made a lot of sense for Yu to get that arc considering his history with the dark nebula and Ryuga
The thing is: he really didn't. He really didn't care about anyone in Metal Fusion. That was unfortunately sad lesson Yu had to learn. A sad but necessary lesson because while Yu was never evil, he also didn't completely understand the true nature of a bey battle until Gingka defeated him. Kenta's arc is nice because it's finally Kenta realising that he needs to step up his game. And Ryuga for the first time actually learns to somewhat care about someone in the long run which isn't entirely selfish.
Yu didn't even lose to Sophie and Wales together, Sophie soloed. Completely unrelated, but I'm pretty sure Sophie squashing Yu followed by that princess laugh awoke something in little me.
What's crazy is that season 1 and 3's Yu was basically better than season 2's Yu. I love Kenta, but I felt very much more sorry for Yu more than Kenta. Bro solo'd 2 powerful bladers, only to be jumped by the Garcia. Beyblade basically made Yu the Yamcha, so the thumbnail was perfect.
They did alot of bladers dirty...It's their writing style. They introduce new op characters then introduce more op characters who shit on the old op characters who dont stay op instead of developing them, they become very weak. That's the whole metal fury plot. (e.g: Yu, Hyoma, Hikaru, Benkey etc)
It’s a damn shame, cause Yu had some of the coolest special moves, bro’s Beyblade could shoot ki blasts, creat sand pits and spawn orbital satellite lasers😂
I actually don't mind Metal Masters Yu that much. He doesn't get big match W's, but he makes up for it by getting really good character moments, and I like Yu being in the main squad a lot even if he's weaker. Compare that to Metal Fury, where he's undeniably stronger, but he misses two thirds of the season. I'll take Metal Masters Yu over Metal Fury Yu any day.
Remember how Yu stopped the river flow in Fusion? One of the coolest scenes in beyblade. Why did he lose to Sophie’s (or Wales’) whirlpool? He should have pushed it back
Sophie surprised him while Yu wasn't using the full extent of his power and technically, Sophie created a whirlwind so intense it looks and feels like a whirlpool but it's not actual water. Granted I think that Yu could defeat her in a rematch if they ever got one.
@@kubat4925 Yu could beat nearly every MM blader asides Ryuga and maybe Tempo. being relative to Legendary bladers instantly makes him stronger than nearly every past villian
@@stephaniejohnson5361 Too bad he didn't get the chance to shine though. And even when he got a chance to fight, it usually went sideways.

So even when he got to fight outside of the championship or within it, my dude just had very poor performances.
Yu’s Track Record Is A Literal Roller Coaster. The Ascending Is Everything In Fusion. Seeing Him At The End Of That Season Was The Peak.

Another Drop And Then The End Of The Coaster Where He Gives His Power And Stays At The Level He Is… Above Average At Best. Despite This. He’s Still My Favorite.
Yu fall off was tough but atleast they let Yu use his full moveset and not nerf any of his moves. Even if the writers made Yu a fraud atleast his battles are very entertaining and flashy Yu is the only character that makes Sonic wave abilities actually look cool

Yu keeps getting merced in metal masters because if you look real close, Yu is SUPPOSED to be a fodder killer. What are his special moves? Turns the arena to sand, lowering the spin strength of his opponent, making them easier to knock out while he’s unaffected by his terrain. Fires a projectile that Yu could 100% use to disorient the opponents Bey to prevent sleepout stall and force the opponent to move and therefore, use more energy. And a screaming pillar of death that forces the opponent to either sleepout (which Yu would win with TWO FREESPIN COMPONENTS) or they enter the field of death and are knocked out. Yu is so overpowered that metal masters made him a substitute, jumped him every other arc, and threw an opponent that tears straight through him in one blow (to make Julian and team Excalibur scary) Now, I forgive the show for making Yu get knocked out by dark Tsubasa twice because it reminds the audience how dangerous the dark power is and isn’t just a win button (cause Kyoya beat Tsubasa while infused with dark power cause Kyoya is the king of BEASTS!) As for the double battle against Damore and Benkei, that’s my favorite fight in the whole series. That is tactics personified and shows how lacking our heroes are in teamwork. It’s a DOUBLE BATTLE! NOT A 2 1v1 BATTLE.
@@juanmanuelmoramontes3883 that too… wait, DID Tsubasa get a special move? Was it shining tornado buster? Also Pegasus only got 1 more special move and it completely replaced star booster attack. I kinda wish he created a new move on the ground that took advantage of his new rubber flat performance tip. Now that I’m thinking about it, why didn’t masamune take more advantage of Striker’s pinpoint mobility? After his only win against Jinga he keeps trying to go for one hit wonders.
Yu got done dirty, he went from being a menace to being someone that was no threat, minding doing the next beyblade video about the wasted potential of the bladers, Like Sora, the guy who wanted to be like Gingka.
Yu is so frustrating because he got one of the coolest and most busted toolkits in the game. Like he can literally make any arena a sand trap but gets barely any W’a anyway which sucks cause he's still ridiculously strong
Yu went from beating ginka, beating hyoma on GODDAMN RIVER THAT WOULD PROBABLY TAKE HIS LIBRA AWAY, destroyed the dark nebula building or something when he used inferno blast to losing to masamune to Tsubasa to Sophie and i admit he was smart to disable the shock waves vs Alexei was that his name? to losing to enzo getting his bay broken got destroyed by Damian who beat him without really using his bey To Literally hang with kyoya WHO AT THAT POINT WAS A LEGENDARY BLADER
3:31 wait what "world martial arts tournament?!?!?? I mean, it's not inaccurate, but that's not the name of the tournament(in the manga it's called big bang bladers iydk
I always hate when this happens in shows, especially in Battle Anime (I don't know if it has an actual name but that's just what I call it. Yu-Gi-Oh!, Pokemon Beyblade etc.). We have these new characters and we need to show off how cool and strong they are. What's the best way to do that? Oh, let's have him beat a cannonically strong and well liked main character from the previous season. That will make everyone like the new character, isn't that right Soulburner (Oh my god fuck Soulburner from Yu-Gi-Oh! Vrains I hope he fucking dies). Anyway, that's exactly what happened with Yu. In his first battle, he beats Kenta, Benkei and Hikaru all at the same time, then he beats Ginka and Kyoya at the same time. Be pretty much swept the whole good guy team in like 2 episodes. It was so interesting to see such a powerful Stamina type that actually played like a Stamina type. Sitting in the middle of field and turning everything to sand, outlasting every other bey. And its final special move, Inferno Blast, again wasn't some big smash attack. The vibrations in the air would literally slow down every other bey until they stopped. It was the ultimate Stamina type and still the strongest Stamina type in Metal Fusion. Yu's first battle where he didn't win was against Tsubasa, and that was because Earth Eagle was uniquely powerful against Flame Libra. It could fly over Libra's sand trap and one its special moves specifically matched the opponents vibrations and wavelength, allowing it to could Libra's move. And despite being at such a disadvantage, they still drew in their battle. Yu's first loss was against Ginka, so that's fine. It would be kind of silly to complain about a character losing to the main character in a Battle Anime, and since this isn't egregious, it's fine. Yu's next loss was against Poison Serpent. Now ignoring the actual physics of beyblades and how they would actually interact with sand, Poison Serpent was at a massive advantage against Flame Libra. It could move even faster in the sand, and Reiji's tactic of chipping away at the beys was uniquely dangerous to Libra as it threw off its balance and its ability to create vibrations. Despite that, Yu fled the battle before it ended, although I would say it was a pretty sure victory for Serpent. And then we get to Metal Masters. Hey guys we have this super cool new character with a super cool (and marketable) bey. How do we show off how stong and cool he is? Whatever you think about Masamune, there's no way he should have defeated Yu one on one. He lost to Ginka a dozen times when he literally couldn't control his own bey and he had no idea about Libra's abilities, and the sand trap should have caught him completely off guard. And for some reason, they keep making Yu use Libra so offensively. Why? It's a Stamina type. Outlast the opponent, don't keep running in to attack. But whatever. And then he loses to Tsubasa too. But oh he has all this dark power and blah blah blah don't care. I personally never liked Tsubasa, yet they keep trying to make him seem cool and powerful and shit. Lame. So maybe I'm biased (I am), but I just felt like Tsubasa's win was also unearned. Yu has shown time and time again that he has an autistic computer brain, yet he couldn't see that Eagle was matching Libra's vibrations? Point is, Yu was just another tragic victim of "Previous season character being used to promote new season character"
I want to point out something important. I have seen some people complain that yu could have used his super sonic vibrations to hold off Sophie whirlpool. This is not the case, because it is an air current, not actual water.
That shouldn't matter. Yu's Libra can make air shake like an Earthquake. Air is kind of like water anyways in that it can flow and whatnot, it's just not limited by a container. It's why Yu's special moves can be countered by removing the air through a vacuum. In his debut, Yu was able to find the smallest opening in Kyoya's tornado(s) by reading the air currents just by looking at it, so theoretically he should've been able to do the same with Sophie's move since it's also air. Also, if he's able to hold back water rapids, then he should be able to hold of air currents as well, or at least disrupt them.
Real talk, ignoring Kenta before he became a Legendary Blader, Nile was the most powerful Non-Legendary Blader. He was 95% responsible for cancelling out Kyoya’s King Lion Crushing Fang (5% being ago Gingka). Yeah, Yu did survive the King Lion Crushing Fang, Kyoya still overpowered Yu’s new special move meaning that Kyoya’s Special Move is stronger than Yu’s. It is true that Yu did break through Nemesis’ barrier, that’s not as impressive as cancelling out a Legednary Blader’s special move let alone being able to fight against Nemesis (especially considering that Nemesis pretty munched negged him effortlessly). In conclusion, Nile is him.
Perhaps a rock paper scissors situation? Cause although Nile and Gingka broke through Kyoya’s special move, I don’t see Kyoya’s special move alone breaking through Nemesis’s barrier cause if he could he would’ve, however Yu’s did break through it though so powerscaling makes no sense haha, although if Nile and Yu were to battle, I’d have to bet on Yu considering their special moves are so similar but with Libra’s having the added affect of turning the stadium into sand
@@mrgabe1 By your own logic, all Legendary Bladers < Masamune, Tsubasa, and Yu. Kyoya and the other Legendary Bladers were all focusing on confronting Nemesis himself. Masamune, Tsubasa, and Yu all were not occupied at the moment and as such, needed a way to help them all out. As shown through if h them breaking the barrier, they did so. Considering that Demure out of all bladers was able to skate across the sand (with the same performance time as Nile’s bey), I’d argue that Nile would be able to do the same (especially since Nile has stated that Horuseus’ power is the power of the great Desert itself).
@@supersonicstyleatsonicspeed I think you missed the part where I said ‘powerscaling makes no sense haha’ (mrgabe1 2024) And that’s cause Demure’s bey is based on a scorpion, but even if Nile could bypass the sand, Yu has his other hacks, like his wave projectiles and his shield 😅
@@mrgabe1 Nile is not only from Egypt (a country with vast amounts of sand), but his bey is also the King of the Sky. Horuseus can just glide right over the sand. Once more, by your own logic, Demure > Nile which is just far from true. Nile also has techniques like his Vulcan Canon projectiles and the Golden Fusion wheel, which counter Libra's attacks.
@@supersonicstyleatsonicspeed Like I said, perhaps it’s a rock paper scissor situation, and well how did that turn out for Pegasus? Eagle? They’re based on beys that can literally fly, yet they still get caught in the sand and dunno about counter, perhaps they equalize, but then again, Libra’s sand
The writers were absolutely diabolical to Yu in Metal Masters. > Oh crap, Yu is about to sleep-out Masamune? Have him skip a few episodes and use the Single Point Breakthrough he's suppose to learn from the Old Man. > Oh, Yu is in a Tag team? Put him with Dark Tsubasa and make sure the opponents are the greatest duo in the entire World Championships when Tsubasa does regain control. > Oh, Yu is is successfully 1v3-ing Selen, Enzo and Ian? Send in Argo with the Critical Hit Backstab. > Oh, Damian was looking to Jump the MC? Can't have that. Make him stumble upon and bench Tsubasa and Yu instead! *THEY DID MY BRO DIRTY!*
I think Yu should have been a major player in the Garcia's battle at the very least. I personally would have Gingka lose to Selen first through cheating, then Masamune beats Selen and gets some damage on Ian. Then let Yu defeat both Ian and Enzo to avenge himself for getting jumped.
Metal furry yu is def stronger than tubassa and masamune tho. Might be the strongest non legendary blader for sure. Dude ate up Kyoya king lion crushing fang and that special move is like one of the strongest in the franchise. That Africa training def bump him up a few leagues for sure.
He not stronger than yu or Tsubasa. He ate kyoya special move but then lost to tippi who is weaker Plus kyoya didn't even use the complete "crushing fangs," on yu (the tornado portion), so its not like yu took the full force of the attack
I honestly don't think that the metal fight beyblade series did Yu dirty. It's true that Yu's role in the series decreased as the series progressed, and Yu's best role was during the metal fusion series, I still think that Yu had his good moments in metal masters and metal fury. I personally enjoyed Yu's relationship with Kenta in the series.
What about Aguma? He also defeated Gingka and Kyoya at the beginning of the anime, and after he defeated Gingka and joined Johannes, he would always lose. If a writer made Gingka defeat Aguma instead of Tithi defeating Aguma in the anime, but the battle of Gingka and Aguma in the manga is strong, very epic, and amazing
L Drago drains negative energy so Ryuuga was taunting him making him mad so I count that as you raging out to a troll and you they win so I count that lose
My favorite character from the series, I loved his concept of a genius blader and also the whole sound theme with Libra. Which is why I was so dissapointed by him in metal masters. The biggest issue I think is that similar to Kyoya, Yu has a lot of special moves but unlike Kyoya who more or less does the same in all of them, each of Yu's moves are different, he gets jumped by the Garcia despite having a sonic shield, during his fight against Benkei and Damure he uses no sonic wave or shield and even during the Sophie and whales fight he uses no special moves.
I guess that Yu during tag team battles has to purposefully restrain himself so he won't defeat his actual teammate. I mean we saw what happened when Yu used Inferno Blast while tag-battling with Gingka, Gingka would've also lost and that's not the point of the tag-team battle. Heck, both Masamune and Gingka had to run away when Yu was about to release the sand trap while fighting Excalibur. He actually did a special move, it was just Sophie stopped him midway through. Sure, Tsubasa can glide beneath the sand or create a shock wave to counter Libra's, but it's not like he couldn't be possibly jumped and him countering Libra's shock wave would also mean that at least one of them is going to be defeated if not both. Not good for teamwork overall. I do agree that he shouldn't have been jumped by Garcias like that. What if Yu instead was a little menace like in Fusion playing all the Garcias as he did with everyone in the Survival Battle. That would be nice, though I can still him being jumped by Argo because Argo is strong, destructive, and surprised Yu.
@@jasonmoukala8909 He has a shield, a move to turn the stadium in sand and a field nuke essentially. Thats more variety than most bladders. Also I do think Benkei and Damure working together are a lot stronger, enough to at least match Yu or tsubasa individually, the issue is that Yu can't use inferno blast without risking his teammates safety and Tsubasa was struggling with the dark power so their match really had Benkei and Damure fighting bladers on handicaps.
@@samuquinhaplay5708 With Tsubasa I wouldn't put just the dark power to blame as the teamwork of Benkei and Damure did prove to be extra effective against Tsubasa. Damure predicts Tsubasa's moves and Benkei attacks Eagle before Tsubasa can dodge again. There's also the fact that the sand trap has proven to be ineffective, though Yu should've tried to use Sonic shield (though who knows if Wild Fang wouldn't take advantage of that and make Yu fire at Tsubasa).
Its not arguably Yu without a doubt had the biggest fall off in beyblade history. I thought the original series did Lee dirty naww Yu got it the worst its not even a argument
Yu is definitly one of my fav' character in the show. I love the happy vibe he brings ! I hate kids, but he makes me want to be her big sis' and bring him to ice cream shop every afternoon xd
He started as a funny kid, mysterious, and over-powerful beyblade warrior and ended up as a weak player who could not even challenge those he defeated countless times anymore. I really hate what the writers did to him. Anime in general has terrible writing for many plot points and characters who ends up with less and less roles. I will say, at the very least, he got to be part of the team in the world tournament. In the version I watched he is named "Carl" which weird because everyone else has Arabic names as replacements, more suited for him in my opinion.
Yu definitely should have gotten more. His bey was already kind of just the worse Flame Saggitario, only having a slightly better performance tip, while having the worse spin track in a more significant way for how negligible it was. At least Claw 145 was useful until Metal Masters, Tornado 125 just always mid. There was real potential for his character to just be untamed, pure spirit and that's kind of how I interpreted it. He didn't have the control to refine his energy into a proper manifestation of his spirit, resulting in raw vibrating energy. There was potential to go one of two different ways from there. They could have gone the Masamune way and have him refine his abilities into something precise and tamed, allowing him to manifest his spirit as something like Lady Justice (the figure often tied to Libra, the scales) or kept him wild and energetic with simply raw energy pouring out as he fights, but boosting the output into a more powerful type of energy from simple supersonic sound waves to actual electromagnetic waves. 4D Beys are clearly not exclusive to the Legendary Bladers so they could have made multiple beys for Masters and Fury as upgrades to his base bey. And he was one of the most entertaining characters, which would have really helped the beys sell so the only reason not to give him better was because the creators didn't like Yu.
The One Piece Fan is calling fights in Beyblade boring and trash. When One Piece is literally the worst written series of all time with the most garbage one dimensional characters of all time.
He went from soloing ginka and kyoya, to getting jumped by the Garcia 💀🐒
DID YU DIRTY,
In Yu defense Argo was actually strong as hell if he just practiced & mastered his bey he would be ridiculously powerful.
I'll say this, Yu being jumped by Argo does make sense as Argo is actually strong and his bey makes it pretty easy to damage the beys of others plus he surprised Yu, so this one makes sense.
What doesn't make sense is him getting jumped by the other 3. Like come on, let Yu actually be a menace like he was in Fusion and actually mess with Garcias before he destroys all 3 so Argo has to step up and nerf him.
He also should've defeated Enzo. That would be enough, I wouldn't be mad if he lost to Selen due to Libra's condition and he would already get revenge from Enzo and that would be enough.
Hey don’t diss Yu on that, he actually held his own and was actually beating them even though they were jumping him. Argo is the only one of that rat family that’s actually strong so that’s not a very heavy loss

Yu should have got a Kenta arc. Heck his bey should have evolved into infinity libra. Rip my favorite character in the show.

My heart aches every time I remember that Yu went from the genius prodigy with a nuclear Beyblade

@@juanmanuelmoramontes3883 that too… wait, DID Tsubasa get a special move? Was it shining tornado buster?
Also Pegasus only got 1 more special move and it completely replaced star booster attack. I kinda wish he created a new move on the ground that took advantage of his new rubber flat performance tip.
Now that I’m thinking about it, why didn’t masamune take more advantage of Striker’s pinpoint mobility? After his only win against Jinga he keeps trying to go for one hit wonders.
Damn I went from seeing Tylearn being a professional Discord Debater to now being a full time content creator.
Yu got done dirty, he went from being a menace to being someone that was no threat, minding doing the next beyblade video about the wasted potential of the bladers, Like Sora, the guy who wanted to be like Gingka.
What's more frustrating is that Yu didn't show up for a single second in shogun series
Yu is so frustrating because he got one of the coolest and most busted toolkits in the game. Like he can literally make any arena a sand trap but gets barely any W’a anyway which sucks cause he's still ridiculously strong
Chopper left the straw hats, and started making videos
Literally he had so much potential bro had the most broken intro
Yu went from beating ginka, beating hyoma on GODDAMN RIVER THAT WOULD PROBABLY TAKE HIS LIBRA AWAY, destroyed the dark nebula building or something when he used inferno blast to losing to masamune to Tsubasa to Sophie and i admit he was smart to disable the shock waves vs Alexei was that his name? to losing to enzo getting his bay broken got destroyed by Damian who beat him without really using his bey To Literally hang with kyoya WHO AT THAT POINT WAS A LEGENDARY BLADER
Bro hitting the yumshia pose in Beyblade god damn
3:31 wait what "world martial arts tournament?!?!?? I mean, it's not inaccurate, but that's not the name of the tournament(in the manga it's called big bang bladers iydk
I always hate when this happens in shows, especially in Battle Anime (I don't know if it has an actual name but that's just what I call it. Yu-Gi-Oh!, Pokemon Beyblade etc.).
We have these new characters and we need to show off how cool and strong they are. What's the best way to do that? Oh, let's have him beat a cannonically strong and well liked main character from the previous season. That will make everyone like the new character, isn't that right Soulburner (Oh my god fuck Soulburner from Yu-Gi-Oh! Vrains I hope he fucking dies).
Anyway, that's exactly what happened with Yu. In his first battle, he beats Kenta, Benkei and Hikaru all at the same time, then he beats Ginka and Kyoya at the same time. Be pretty much swept the whole good guy team in like 2 episodes. It was so interesting to see such a powerful Stamina type that actually played like a Stamina type. Sitting in the middle of field and turning everything to sand, outlasting every other bey. And its final special move, Inferno Blast, again wasn't some big smash attack. The vibrations in the air would literally slow down every other bey until they stopped. It was the ultimate Stamina type and still the strongest Stamina type in Metal Fusion.
Yu's first battle where he didn't win was against Tsubasa, and that was because Earth Eagle was uniquely powerful against Flame Libra. It could fly over Libra's sand trap and one its special moves specifically matched the opponents vibrations and wavelength, allowing it to could Libra's move. And despite being at such a disadvantage, they still drew in their battle. Yu's first loss was against Ginka, so that's fine. It would be kind of silly to complain about a character losing to the main character in a Battle Anime, and since this isn't egregious, it's fine. Yu's next loss was against Poison Serpent. Now ignoring the actual physics of beyblades and how they would actually interact with sand, Poison Serpent was at a massive advantage against Flame Libra. It could move even faster in the sand, and Reiji's tactic of chipping away at the beys was uniquely dangerous to Libra as it threw off its balance and its ability to create vibrations. Despite that, Yu fled the battle before it ended, although I would say it was a pretty sure victory for Serpent.
And then we get to Metal Masters. Hey guys we have this super cool new character with a super cool (and marketable) bey. How do we show off how stong and cool he is?
Whatever you think about Masamune, there's no way he should have defeated Yu one on one. He lost to Ginka a dozen times when he literally couldn't control his own bey and he had no idea about Libra's abilities, and the sand trap should have caught him completely off guard. And for some reason, they keep making Yu use Libra so offensively. Why? It's a Stamina type. Outlast the opponent, don't keep running in to attack. But whatever. And then he loses to Tsubasa too. But oh he has all this dark power and blah blah blah don't care. I personally never liked Tsubasa, yet they keep trying to make him seem cool and powerful and shit. Lame. So maybe I'm biased (I am), but I just felt like Tsubasa's win was also unearned. Yu has shown time and time again that he has an autistic computer brain, yet he couldn't see that Eagle was matching Libra's vibrations?
Point is, Yu was just another tragic victim of "Previous season character being used to promote new season character"
I can’t wait for more Yugioh videos
Yu was nerfed and powercrept for NO REASON. 😑😭
Look at how they massacred my boy.
Remember when yue would singlehandedly fight 3-4 beys, one of which was storm pegasus without breaking a sweat all the while calling them 'yoyo'
Yu metaphorically became Yamcha, along with Benkei, Masamune, and Tsubasa a little bit
I want to point out something important. I have seen some people complain that yu could have used his super sonic vibrations to hold off Sophie whirlpool. This is not the case, because it is an air current, not actual water.
That shouldn't matter. Yu's Libra can make air shake like an Earthquake. Air is kind of like water anyways in that it can flow and whatnot, it's just not limited by a container. It's why Yu's special moves can be countered by removing the air through a vacuum. In his debut, Yu was able to find the smallest opening in Kyoya's tornado(s) by reading the air currents just by looking at it, so theoretically he should've been able to do the same with Sophie's move since it's also air. Also, if he's able to hold back water rapids, then he should be able to hold of air currents as well, or at least disrupt them.
“Tetsuya doesn’t count” HOP OFF MY GOAT ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
I wanna see this type of video called Why Kuwabara vs Gojo is not even close
Real talk, ignoring Kenta before he became a Legendary Blader, Nile was the most powerful Non-Legendary Blader. He was 95% responsible for cancelling out Kyoya’s King Lion Crushing Fang (5% being ago Gingka). Yeah, Yu did survive the King Lion Crushing Fang, Kyoya still overpowered Yu’s new special move meaning that Kyoya’s Special Move is stronger than Yu’s. It is true that Yu did break through Nemesis’ barrier, that’s not as impressive as cancelling out a Legednary Blader’s special move let alone being able to fight against Nemesis (especially considering that Nemesis pretty munched negged him effortlessly). In conclusion, Nile is him.
Perhaps a rock paper scissors situation? Cause although Nile and Gingka broke through Kyoya’s special move, I don’t see Kyoya’s special move alone breaking through Nemesis’s barrier cause if he could he would’ve, however Yu’s did break through it though so powerscaling makes no sense haha, although if Nile and Yu were to battle, I’d have to bet on Yu considering their special moves are so similar but with Libra’s having the added affect of turning the stadium into sand
@@mrgabe1 By your own logic, all Legendary Bladers < Masamune, Tsubasa, and Yu. Kyoya and the other Legendary Bladers were all focusing on confronting Nemesis himself. Masamune, Tsubasa, and Yu all were not occupied at the moment and as such, needed a way to help them all out. As shown through if h them breaking the barrier, they did so. Considering that Demure out of all bladers was able to skate across the sand (with the same performance time as Nile’s bey), I’d argue that Nile would be able to do the same (especially since Nile has stated that Horuseus’ power is the power of the great Desert itself).
@@supersonicstyleatsonicspeed I think you missed the part where I said ‘powerscaling makes no sense haha’ (mrgabe1 2024) And that’s cause Demure’s bey is based on a scorpion, but even if Nile could bypass the sand, Yu has his other hacks, like his wave projectiles and his shield 😅
@@mrgabe1 Nile is not only from Egypt (a country with vast amounts of sand), but his bey is also the King of the Sky. Horuseus can just glide right over the sand. Once more, by your own logic, Demure > Nile which is just far from true. Nile also has techniques like his Vulcan Canon projectiles and the Golden Fusion wheel, which counter Libra's attacks.
@@supersonicstyleatsonicspeed Like I said, perhaps it’s a rock paper scissor situation, and well how did that turn out for Pegasus? Eagle? They’re based on beys that can literally fly, yet they still get caught in the sand and dunno about counter, perhaps they equalize, but then again, Libra’s sand
The writers were absolutely diabolical to Yu in Metal Masters.
> Oh crap, Yu is about to sleep-out Masamune? Have him skip a few episodes and use the Single Point Breakthrough he's suppose to learn from the Old Man.
> Oh, Yu is in a Tag team? Put him with Dark Tsubasa and make sure the opponents are the greatest duo in the entire World Championships when Tsubasa does regain control.
> Oh, Yu is is successfully 1v3-ing Selen, Enzo and Ian? Send in Argo with the Critical Hit Backstab.
> Oh, Damian was looking to Jump the MC? Can't have that. Make him stumble upon and bench Tsubasa and Yu instead!
*THEY DID MY BRO DIRTY!*
I think Yu should have been a major player in the Garcia's battle at the very least. I personally would have Gingka lose to Selen first through cheating, then Masamune beats Selen and gets some damage on Ian. Then let Yu defeat both Ian and Enzo to avenge himself for getting jumped.
looking forward to the caesar video 😂
Nah, I always argued Hyoma. Yu does have a lot of room for the argument I'll give him that
Damian did him dirty
In manga damian is so strong and gingka vs damian in manga is amazing and epic
Bro was one of the only characters who didn't make it to Shogun Steel
Metal furry yu is def stronger than tubassa and masamune tho. Might be the strongest non legendary blader for sure. Dude ate up Kyoya king lion crushing fang and that special move is like one of the strongest in the franchise. That Africa training def bump him up a few leagues for sure.
He not stronger than yu or Tsubasa. He ate kyoya special move but then lost to tippi who is weaker
Plus kyoya didn't even use the complete "crushing fangs," on yu (the tornado portion), so its not like yu took the full force of the attack
So basically,
Metal masters made Yu YUseless
and Metal fury made YUseful
I honestly don't think that the metal fight beyblade series did Yu dirty. It's true that Yu's role in the series decreased as the series progressed, and Yu's best role was during the metal fusion series, I still think that Yu had his good moments in metal masters and metal fury. I personally enjoyed Yu's relationship with Kenta in the series.
He was one of my favorites but they did him dirty
What about Aguma? He also defeated Gingka and Kyoya at the beginning of the anime, and after he defeated Gingka and joined Johannes, he would always lose. If a writer made Gingka defeat Aguma instead of Tithi defeating Aguma in the anime, but the battle of Gingka and Aguma in the manga is strong, very epic, and amazing
Yu should’ve been a legendary blader
My fav character
L Drago drains negative energy so Ryuuga was taunting him making him mad so I count that as you raging out to a troll and you they win so I count that lose
My favorite character from the series, I loved his concept of a genius blader and also the whole sound theme with Libra. Which is why I was so dissapointed by him in metal masters. The biggest issue I think is that similar to Kyoya, Yu has a lot of special moves but unlike Kyoya who more or less does the same in all of them, each of Yu's moves are different, he gets jumped by the Garcia despite having a sonic shield, during his fight against Benkei and Damure he uses no sonic wave or shield and even during the Sophie and whales fight he uses no special moves.
I guess that Yu during tag team battles has to purposefully restrain himself so he won't defeat his actual teammate. I mean we saw what happened when Yu used Inferno Blast while tag-battling with Gingka, Gingka would've also lost and that's not the point of the tag-team battle. Heck, both Masamune and Gingka had to run away when Yu was about to release the sand trap while fighting Excalibur. He actually did a special move, it was just Sophie stopped him midway through.
Sure, Tsubasa can glide beneath the sand or create a shock wave to counter Libra's, but it's not like he couldn't be possibly jumped and him countering Libra's shock wave would also mean that at least one of them is going to be defeated if not both. Not good for teamwork overall.
I do agree that he shouldn't have been jumped by Garcias like that. What if Yu instead was a little menace like in Fusion playing all the Garcias as he did with everyone in the Survival Battle. That would be nice, though I can still him being jumped by Argo because Argo is strong, destructive, and surprised Yu.
Yus special moves aren’t really different
The battle with benkei and damure was great teamwork on wild fangs part tbh
@@jasonmoukala8909 He has a shield, a move to turn the stadium in sand and a field nuke essentially. Thats more variety than most bladders.
Also I do think Benkei and Damure working together are a lot stronger, enough to at least match Yu or tsubasa individually, the issue is that Yu can't use inferno blast without risking his teammates safety and Tsubasa was struggling with the dark power so their match really had Benkei and Damure fighting bladers on handicaps.
@@samuquinhaplay5708 With Tsubasa I wouldn't put just the dark power to blame as the teamwork of Benkei and Damure did prove to be extra effective against Tsubasa. Damure predicts Tsubasa's moves and Benkei attacks Eagle before Tsubasa can dodge again.
There's also the fact that the sand trap has proven to be ineffective, though Yu should've tried to use Sonic shield (though who knows if Wild Fang wouldn't take advantage of that and make Yu fire at Tsubasa).
Its not arguably Yu without a doubt had the biggest fall off in beyblade history. I thought the original series did Lee dirty naww Yu got it the worst its not even a argument
They did him so dirty idc he still my fav character
They nerfed yu in masters because he is to strong
Yu is definitly one of my fav' character in the show. I love the happy vibe he brings ! I hate kids, but he makes me want to be her big sis' and bring him to ice cream shop every afternoon xd
He started as a funny kid, mysterious, and over-powerful beyblade warrior and ended up as a weak player who could not even challenge those he defeated countless times anymore. I really hate what the writers did to him. Anime in general has terrible writing for many plot points and characters who ends up with less and less roles.
I will say, at the very least, he got to be part of the team in the world tournament. In the version I watched he is named "Carl" which weird because everyone else has Arabic names as replacements, more suited for him in my opinion.
Yu mf: yea not a big deal just I'm just a small version of ryuga🎉
Yu in mm and mfu: oh it's your birthday have it to the ground
Wait bro after he got jumped he did the yamacha pose
Yu definitely should have gotten more. His bey was already kind of just the worse Flame Saggitario, only having a slightly better performance tip, while having the worse spin track in a more significant way for how negligible it was. At least Claw 145 was useful until Metal Masters, Tornado 125 just always mid. There was real potential for his character to just be untamed, pure spirit and that's kind of how I interpreted it. He didn't have the control to refine his energy into a proper manifestation of his spirit, resulting in raw vibrating energy.
There was potential to go one of two different ways from there. They could have gone the Masamune way and have him refine his abilities into something precise and tamed, allowing him to manifest his spirit as something like Lady Justice (the figure often tied to Libra, the scales) or kept him wild and energetic with simply raw energy pouring out as he fights, but boosting the output into a more powerful type of energy from simple supersonic sound waves to actual electromagnetic waves. 4D Beys are clearly not exclusive to the Legendary Bladers so they could have made multiple beys for Masters and Fury as upgrades to his base bey. And he was one of the most entertaining characters, which would have really helped the beys sell so the only reason not to give him better was because the creators didn't like Yu.
blud went from a decent character to garbaho
do imu vs kaguya
They nerfed Yu for Masamune who wasn’t even that good💀
with all this beyblade content could you do a similar show that uses childrens toys as weapins like Turning Mecard.
Hot take, but I think Yu became the strongest non legendary blader at the end of Fury
Yu was still better than hikaru she got done the worst makes u wanna cry 😢
BAYBLADE BURST ON TOP
When the garcias bullied yu my disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined
Yeah they did my boy dirty not cool 😞
The One Piece Fan is calling fights in Beyblade boring and trash. When One Piece is literally the worst written series of all time with the most garbage one dimensional characters of all time.
One piece is good but i love beyblade metal than one piece but something made me hate beyblade series and that is shogun steel.
Who else got Yamaha flashbacks from the opening pic let me know u a real one ☝️
I wouldn't say Enzo is the weakest in the entire tournament. I think he could beat most of the Russian Team.
They definitely wasted yu
