01. Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Rewrite: Welcome to Duel Academy
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лют 2025
- It's back to school season as we revisit the first episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX and set out to course correct the multitude of problems that developed in the show's writer's room. This episode sees an incoming class of students meet, duel, and begin to explore the secrets of the mysterious abandoned dorm.
While I think you have good ideas, I don’t agree with some of your points. Two of them in particular, both relating to Yugi’s appearances. You took out Yugi giving him Winged Kuriboh at the start to have Jaden stand on his own, only to have Pegasus give him a super unique deck? In my opinion this removes even more from Jaden as now even his choice in deck is taken from him, haing been given to him simply for plot convenience. In addition, I feel you missed the entire point of the final duel between Yugi and Jaden. Since season 3, Jaden has been doing life and death duels constantly and he lost his ability to truly enjoy dueling and have fun playing the game. The duel with Yugi is meant to help Jaden regain that happiness he once felt while dueling. A duel not for the fate of the world, simply a friendly match between two men who enjoy the game from the bottom of their hearts.
I mean, in the manga, he was taught by other guy the way of HERO
@@leonardorubert6011 well the manga came way after even then it was jaden choice to use heros
Yeah it’s like the whole point of their duel is that it doesn’t really matter to either of them and it’s not supposed to
@@anawaz189 well there duel was ment to ake jaden to have fun again in duels
I’d say that this is more symbolic of the hero complex Jaden develops because he was thrust into a leadership position he never asked for, much like didn’t ask pegasus for the deck it was just given. It’s a direct parallel. But I do agree with the yugi point, because now he’s going to have to implement yugi into the story without stealing the show from Jaden.
Personally I think that having Jaden be *given* the hero deck by pegasus conflicted with your point on how Jaden had his cards handed to him.
yeah that's very weird
A way around that would be to have Jaden win those cards in a tournament that was going on during the Duel Academy entrance exams and competing in said tournament is the reason Jaden was running late because he saw it and impulsively entered.
Realizing what he was currently missing he hurriedly grabbed the cards he won, haphazardly slapped them into his deck and rushed to get to the entrance exams, even going so far as running into traffic multiple times for the sake of shortcuts. When he gets there he's mocked by Crowler for his carelessness and Jaden, displaying Joey levels of aggressiveness (which is completely in character for him in this version since I'm making him basically Joey without the gambling gimmick), impulsively challenges Crowler for entry into Duel Academy and has actual trouble because he screwed up his deck with the cards he won in the tournament that he doesn't know how to use properly since he didn't practice with them beforehand. He didn't think to restructure his deck before the duel, either. He still manages to win and gets into the Slifer Red dorm.
Normally someone with Jaden's track record in dueling tournaments automatically qualify for Obelisk Blue, but he starts at the lowest level because he completely skipped out on the written portion of the exam.
@@jsb6975.ah.crapbaskets this a better start than both this and the original
Same.
Yeah, although Neos Alius being introduced early does foreshadow the Neo-Spacians nicely. JSB got it right, about the tourney.
I want to see how the dueling monkey fits into this timeline
DJ Crimson Sunbird gotta be a main character
Daire Beare yeah!
the final boss
I don't remember Joey being in this series
Ben Franks or tristan
You lost me IMMEDIATELY with Jaden getting a special little custom made deck and just ditching his old one for it. A big part of what makes Jaden such a charming protagonist in season 1 is that he's just a dude who loves dueling and loves his cards. That's the biggest reason people are so critical of him getting Neos as a new ace in season 2, the idea of a protagonist whose ace was just the card he found the coolest was relatable.
Yoooo I'm already liking this series a lot.
Yoooo same 😂
Yup
Francesco Girardello same I am excited for the new cards Jaden’s gonna get
Wait, Yugi is the King of Games.
Why wouldn't Jaden want to duel Yugi?
And Yugi gave Jaden his Winged Kuriboh, why wouldn't he want to duel him to see how far he has come.
I think the stakes are pretty clear.
Yeah, but why?
Thank you. The rewrite itself is fun but the premise at the beginning feels flawed
The Yugi Jaden dueled was Yugi in the past, who did not know his future self would give Jaden his Winged Kuriboh.
But it's possible he DID know Jaden due to the Bonds Beyond Time movie.
Jaden wanting to Duel Yugi makes sense.
But Yugi wanting to Duel Jaden doesn't really hold up past the barest of scrutiny required to see that's it's just arbitrary reasons for the protagonists to cross paths.
@@OnEiNsAnEmOtHeRfUcKa I thought Yugi wanted to duel Jaden because he has fun playing the game and wanted a decent opponent? It's not like anything was at stake, it was just a casual pickup duel.
Best thing you did was make Blaire a good character
same I can't wait for the neo spacian monsters to enter the fray
He did?
As soon as I saw Blair I was stooked. She was the most interesting female character in GX. At least when it came to human charecters.
True i actually like her art in the anime nice to see her be more then jadens tiny love option
Indeed, I like this Blair better than the real one, in fact I want to use this Blair in Duel Links instead of that piece of *Bleep the anime did.
I really like this rewrite. The dynamic of the HERO monsters is a really interesting one and I can't wait to see how it develops as it goes on. I am also really excited to see more character interactions.
Also, since Shadow Mist is in this, I wonder if we will ever be seeing Masked HERO Dark Law. Or if Shadow Mist is there just to have a Dark HERO monster so all Attributes are present.
Ok I love this but I'd change one thing, switch Avian with Stratos so that Jaden/Judais main monsters are all effect monsters. Either way, this is gonna be frickin sweet
I like how you made Pegasus make the hero cards. It makes sense, considering Pegasus watched cartoons in his childhood. Those shows could have also been about super heroes or something like that.
So basically we are getting a mixture of the manga and the anime
In other words what they should have done? Seems legit.

@@neonoah3353 The manga also started off with the characters already in Duel Academy, and Jaden was also given the deck he uses. The manga similarly chose not to include Chumley at all.
This was so good! Post more soon! I like Alexis not being a damsel in distress but a real force to be reckon with.
This is a common problem is basically every yugioh series. Tea, Mai, Alexis, Akiza, Tori, Zuzu they all turn into damsels in distress more often than not. Even when they are introduced as amazing duelist who should be able to stand on their own. It's frustrating.
@@SapphWolf It's starting to bleed into Bridge a little bit with the 'lead girl' of Go Rush, Yuamu, having been brainwashed on _two_ separate occasions, if only for about 2.2 episodes in total.
I'm still watching so I will see the rest... But I can't agree on one thing from the start... The second appearance and the Duel between Yugi and Judai, is meant to help Judai recover from his serious mode, where he has been dueling for life or death non-stop at that point and is losing his fun for dueling. He is lost in a way, which is why in the end we see him wondering off alone somewhere, probably searching for himself
This fun. I am curious of what happens in the next Video or should I say Episode.
I wouldnt say erase chumley just reroute his journey to becoming a card designer for industrial illusions and make that role more relevant throughout the series.
Have Chumley periodically mail Jaden a bunch of new HERO plot-twist cards, the ones he seems to pull out of his ass every episode.
No not plot device cards but some more like when he gave him skyscraper 2. He could do this with all characters. Such as when chazz duels his brother but can only use monsters with 500 or less attack Chumley could give him a few custom cards that he had designed that help make the weaker monsters useful. Or when Cyrus duels Zane he could give Cyrus some new roid or machine themed cards. And this role could pop up in other various point throughout the series.
@@deanwilliams9606 Exactly. It's not the Heart of the Cards that matters this time around, it's rubbing elbows with the card designers so they can push your archetype into the meta.
Exarch-of-Sechrima That’s an interesting take on the show though won’t lie lol
Dean Williams but like he said in the video they have Pegasus he could give Jaden more cards to support the cards he has because Pegasus wouldn’t want the deck to be irrelevant because that would just hurt his ego if he didn’t plus since Jaden is all about equality he is most likely gonna ask Pegasus to give cards that support syrus’s cards plus they already got rid of him in the manga and he pointed out in the video he will be getting more cards later in the series it would be cool to have Chumley in the series but Chumley is not needed he was not needed in the later seasons he really isn’t needed in the series because they have a bunch of alternatives so he is not needed but he is wanted
While I like the premise of the rewrite as well as the story changes like making Jaden able to speak to all the monster spirits in his deck as opposed to just Winged Kuriboh, as well as including some of the Manga stuff and mixing it in, I suppose my only issue would be the fact that using later cards like "Neos Alius" which only matters after Neos' establishment seems a bit odd. It kind of feels like you're "Updating" the series rather than rewriting it.
Personally I'd have preferred if you kept the majority of cards the same as the ones they used in the anime (with changes where necessary as opposed to doing it for the sake of it), the rewrite itself would meant far more if the tools used were not changed.
But other than that the premise of the rewrite is perfectly fine.
I feel like these should be Jaden's Duel Spirit cards
Wind: Stratos
Dark: Necroshade
Light: Prisma
Woodsman, Ocean and Blazeman though are all good.
And after gaining access to the Neo Space support, Neos will come in as the new and main boss between all of Jaden's Duel Spirits. With Shadow Mist serving as the new second in command when he gets the Masked Hero support)
Meanwhile monsters like Elemental Hero Blade Edge, Wildheart, and other named HEROES for Prisma to target for his fusion substitute effect would be there. But none of them would have spirits like the main OG 6 do.
I am really liking this rewrite. Specially because of the new archetypes for the old characters and the Hero's personality. Though I feel like We can drop hits of Yubel trying to get back to Jaden before whatever happens to her
So why would jaden a high level duelist not fight the king of games who he admires if given the chance. Sure there isn't really a reason but there isn't a reason to not.
Lol I like what you did with Blair. Really good and fun rewrite, I like your characterization of the characters and the ideas you have for the duels / story. Can’t wait for the next episode in this series, especially with what’s next and how messy the actual anime was
I remembering wanting to like Blair, but she just kept coming across as creepy. I agree with you on this being a much better take on her.
I love this, taking the original and guiding it so that it makes a more complete story.
(Edit): I just thought of this, what will he do for season 3 and 4? Anyone else a bit scared?
Agreed
4 season? aren't just 3 seasons?
@@pavelmotal3593 there are indeed 4 seasons, the English dub cut out the last season
There is a 4th season, though it was never dubbed into English. As an epilogue to the Yubel story of Season 3, it's fantastic. As standalone season with its own villain, you can take it or leave it.
@@SpellCommander91 I'd say take it, because Juudai is amazing in this season. Even if the final villain is very meh and generic, Trueman still manages to cause a ton of havok. I'd say it defenitely plays off the whole "Juudai superhero" theme the best.
Since this rewrite seems to be bringing in stuff from the manga, I think it would've a nice touch to have Jaden have the Hero at the start but also intergrate the backstory of where and who he got it from, adding a bit of a personal touch to it and giving more motive for Yubel's grief/hatred (being replaced by the Hero deck)
I never knew I needed this so much. Thank you! This was excellent. I look forward to the next video.
Dang if only I was a rich man, I'd pay for this being animated as a reboot. I still love the og source material but this rewrite makes it a hundred times better, good job.
Also for the sake of plot and how satisfying the conclusions for how each duel ended, I can even overlook how certain cards work (e.g. light and darkness dragon) cause hey, the yugioh anime tends to tweak card effects to better benefit the situation. Like Yugi/Atem with his card of sanctity to draw six or Jaden with his bubbleman for that instant pot of greed effect ahaha
The only thing that's kinda a downer, is that we have avian and woodsman but we don't have terra firma or flame wingman yet. Kinda cliche, but these two are definitely my all time fav fusions that Jaden used. They left such an impact on me when I was watching the anime and reading the manga
Let me be clear. I personally believe Yugioh GX was the best of them all, despite its flaws, it has a major nostalgia factor for me.
But this
Oh my god this
This is fantastic! You portrayed everything in the perfect way so I could visualize it in my head, you made the characters better in just about every aspect, and you're making them all much more interesting. I personally love what you're doing with the Elemental Hero duel spirits.
I look forward to the next episode, I just hope it's as good as these that you laid out.
This Is absolutely amazing. I just subscribed for this amazing reboot. Can’t wait for your next release!
Also I would prefer that Neos being a Fusion Monster, summoned via a Spell based off Mask Change since Alius is basically the Superboy while Neos is Superman, just give it an effect like Brave Neos if Neo-Spacians are being incorporated to make them run atleast faster
Nah, keep alius as a gemini monster whose effect is to summon neos from the extra deck
And make the border of neos white
@@cedricrobertson2893 It doesn't summon Neos just changes it name to Neos.
maybe have it be a fusion of any 2 hero monsters and then it could contact fuse with any hero monster to form the elemental forms but should they retain their neo space reliant playstyle only so having the multi contact fusions keep their field nuke effects as a big F U to the opponent
@@spartanq7781 I know but the effects can be changed, after all he is droping clues about how tuners and syncros come to be, so neos could be a prototype sincro thats also a tuner
Nah I think it's going to be E-HERO the world /tirra firma since his fusion mitral (sorry if I spelled that wrong English is not my first language) exist and transformation fusion summon (aka the name of the masked heroes fusion summoning mathed) is enough and unique to the masked heroes which is part of the elemental hero arctype think how many monsters use contact fusion other than neos
You say Jaden had his cards handed to him yet have pegasus give him a hero deck, Yugi only gave Jaden a new card and pegasus gave Jaden an entire deck of Heroes.
I loved the fraternal rivalry between Jaden, Zane and Cyrus you set up. I also like how you have cooler Duel Spirits than just Winged Kuriboh and Ojamas Brothers. While I have a personal attachment to anime hero deck, I think I would've grown more attached to this hero deck.
Looking forward to the Shadow Riders and Abandoned Dorm story because little me was SO invested and lost on that part, but I am most interested in how you're connecting GX to it's predecessor. (I am invested simply on the promise that you'll be treating the support cast better because they 'were' great)
I loved GX growing up, especially the first season because of everyone's personalities bouncing off of one another, honestly I think this and Pokemon are the reasons why I actually immensely enjoy Slice of life adventures and anime fillers.
Though I understand the desire for a more cohesive plot and narrative because GX kind of fell apart at the seems when you look at it as a whole, I do hope that there are some room made for some campy (filler) adventures. or please retain 'some' of the overall fun, goofy, slacker that Jaden is as he progresses because that is my favorite aspect of his character that disappeared whenever the plot got heavy (for obvious reasons).
Yooooo this was fantastic! I can't wait to see part 2, this kind of content is awesome. Keep it up man!
amazing. please continue until the end of season 4
I need this
My guy I am IN LOVE with this!!! I have a lot of love in my heart for GX and seeing its characters used in such a cool way for a really, really fun story concept makes me ridiculously happy. Its clear how much you've thought about this rewrite and the amount of care here is neat as hell. I especially love the focus being put on Judai's relationship with the duel spirits (something that I thought was really under-utilised in the original series) and watching their relationship grow is gonna be a blast. Keep up the amazing work!!
Not gonna lie this seems pretty cool.
I really wish that Masked Heroes can be introduced probably as a cool shadow mist moment.
Id totally love to see this continue! i enjoy a lot of what is changing along with some updates to decks as we are a fewwwww years past jadens first deck! id really hope you breath life into everyones deck just as you did his as i think it could make for a better feeling duel on both ends
I really like how the cards act as mentors. It’s a great tool for character development.
GX was my favorite of the series
Biggest Season 3 change you possibly make: Givig Supreme King Evil HERO Malicious Bane. He would OTK every single duelist he would come across.
not if you give Edo Vision hero trinity
@@ShoXwavee 😂😂😂😂 Facts. Just attack his big ass twice. Game. xD
@@jacobemerson4749 Oh would you look at this juicy Honest Neos in my hand.
Alternatively, my field spell will amp up the power of my monster.
@@numberhunter62 Boyy. One attack. Done. xD
@@jacobemerson4749 You are aware with Honest Neos Bane would have 5500 atk, more than the 5000 Trinity gets from it's effect.
I would've enjoyed this a lot more than what the actual series was. Would love to see more of what you imagine
I think by giving the 'millenium' knock-off items a back story along with more back story on how the sacred beasts came into being would be great.
Your attention to both character and world building details is simply amazing, thanks for making this it was a fun watch
I’m actually glad that your doing this. This new take on that anime sounds like it could have been better than the anime that we got. I know it’s close to impossible but can someone please make this an actual thing and post the episodes on UA-cam or something? I’m sure I’m not the only one who would love to see this
As someone who’s written GX fanfic for years (for practice lol), it’s always fun to see others perspective on the series and what they would do. Very throughly enjoyed this video and where the story is going. Can’t wait for Part 2 and beyond.
i feel like neos allius should be replaced with a different light type hero like Prisma until Jadenends up getting Neos
This is a really cool take! I didn’t expect much but this would honestly be really cool to see in action. I especially love you establishing Yubel right at square one.
This sounds super interesting! I love how the Heroes have different personalities, now i wonder how Edo's Heroes will work (i'm guessing Judai can see their spirits but Edo doesn't?).
I also can't wait to se how the other Academies students will fit in (like Jim, Johan, etc). Good job!
You did a great job of introducing everyone. You also did a really good job setting up character relationships and dynamics. I like how you kept Syrus’s self doubt in dueling early on. Great job on starting the plot threads in the 1st episode.
Something that's been bouncing around in my head for a while, why not combine some elements from the Society of Light and Dark World arcs. Like, Jaden gets possessed by the Supreme King and duels Sartorius while he's still possessed by the Light of Destruction. With some kinda moral that light and dark aren't necessarily good or bad.
I love both the idea for this series and the ideas that you're reworking the series with! I can't wait for more episodes!
Not a bad start, I'm liking how your take on the first couple of episodes and how each of the focuses on our main heroes. While I'm disappointed that Chumley wasn't part of the main group, but seeing as he didn't have much relevance in the anime as well, I can live with that. Honestly, I'd say that your take on Yu--Gi-Oh GX is way better than the anime and how you use the Elemental Heroes as Jaden's guides throughout the series. I can't wait to see how Bastion is added to the story and the reintroduction of the Shadow Riders. And maybe a hint of Yubel on several occasions as well.
Honestly, Chumley would probably work better as a reoccuring side character. Give him three episodes max for the spotlight as the breather episodes and just have him be in the background for events, similar to how Alexis's two friends were.
ScorchipProductions Yeah, that can definitely work for him.
I don’t like the spirits guiding him just because he’s supposed to be a dueling prodigy, where in this he just listens to his cards which tell him how to win with almost no input of his own.
I’d genuinely love to see more of these videos. You’re idea of what gx should’ve been is great!
Jaden's deck might as well be his deck from the manga if you're gonna have the Omni-HERO Fusions involved. Sparkman (LIGHT), Shadow Mist (DARK), Woodsman (EARTH), Ocean (WATER), Heat/Lady Heat (FIRE), and Stratos (WIND).
This is really cool, honestly have no words for how well you've thought this out. And as a Yugioh fan who grew up on GX, I loved thinking about this rewritten version. Thanks a lot formaking this, hope there is more to come soon!!!
Let’s not hate on Atticus. The dude is one of the most badass antagonist the shows seen. Dude rocks red eyes black dragon and almost killed worthless chumley and Cyrus. Lol
and never won a duel
Jace prince didn’t he duel like twice?
@@thegoat9237 he dueled around 5 times
Jace prince shit I honestly can’t remember lol he was a dope ass character though. Especially when he put the shadow rider mask back on before he dueled Zane lol
@@jaceprince5385 That's what happens when you drop red-eyes support for normal beat sticks, I mean how the hell did the dude get in blue, when his actual deck is normal beatdown
I was just thinking about bastion yesss finally! You did really good I like the concept of putting Jaden hero cards and spirit speaking powers to use. Spotlight on the side characters was great excellent can't wait for the other stuff
I really like this idea of adapting bits from the manga into the anime. It kind of reminds of of how Vanguard handled its reboot.
This was great! I've been on a trip watching your videos for some days now, they're so great! I had no idea Yu-Gi-Oh was this rich in lore...
PLEASE! DO THE SAME WITH YU GI OH ARC V! 😭
If you ask me, if there's a Yu gi oh serie that needs a remake, it's this one.
Arc-V had the best ideas in the whole franchise, but the execution kinda whimpered and died
@@andiwillbloominwinter2020 SO AGREE!
Just the concept of the hero being the reincarnation of a vilain is such an interresting concept that needs to be use more. (The only other show I know with this concept is GX with Judaï/Supreme king... And even thought it wasn't its main concept, it was defenetly better executed then in arc V).
I think the biggest problem with arc V is its messy writting that didn't know where to focuss at all (Even thought it's pretty obvious the focuss should have been on the Yu boys (Equally) and the bracelet girls since everything happens because of them)
Best thing they could have done is during the final battle when literally everyone is down. All hope seems lost. have the old protagonist (Yugi -not Atem-, Jaden, Yusei, Yuma) pop up and join the fight as a surprise. Like completely Bonds Beyond Time Zarc till Rei can use the cards,
@@topsecret770 I desagree actually. Sure, it would have been cool, but would have come out out of nowhere and overshadow the characters of arc V even more.
No, I belive instead that Ray should have come back with her own body, but beeing able to talk to the bracelet girls in a way. She should have been in the duel agaisnt Z-arc from the start and tells others that they need to awake all the Yu boys spirit inside of Z-arc (Not just Yuya) in orther to defeat him, one at the time. She would let Yuzu be in control while they try to awake Yuya, then Ruri for Yuto, Rin for Yugo and Serena for Yuri. Then, Ray retake control and tried to save Z-arc himself for his own shadows and help him find peace. Of course, the lancers and duelists that were help by Yuya would duel with Ray, but enter the duel only at a certain period to assure their victory.
Also, NO ENDING WHERE THE YU BOYS AND THE BRACELET GIRLS BEING STUCK TOGETHER FORVER. If that was the ending they wanted to have, they should have focuss on their relashiopships between them a lot more.
@@claireaquos6532 I agree with your statement. However, I don't think old protagonists would overshadow everyone else. After all, I would still expect them to lose to Z-arc. I just wanted them in the final battle to stall for time leading up to Rei's return. Just a really flashy duel that weakens Z-arc. Which then allows Rei to do as you said in your comment.
I really loved this. Can't wait to see what direction you go in.
I like this but not realling digging using cards that didnt exist at the time ie witchcrafters
I mean, half the cast was using archetypes that didn't exist till after the show
Hell, CYBER ANGELS DIDN'T EXIST FOR MULTIPLE YEARS AFTER THE SHOW ENDED
You know, that archetype run by a persistent secondary character
Timeline of when cards released is meaningless
I really like this. Any take on any Yugioh story could end up well. I really like that you made Jaidens deck more competitive and gave each Hero some personality. Great job
Why did it take me so long to realize that the reason why slifer red is the lowest teir is because of how much kaiba hates yugi
Kaiba doesn't hate Yugi at all, though. He has a tremendous amount of respect for him. If he was really going by personal decisions for the dorm rankings (provided that was even his executive decision at all and not just done by someone else under him), then he would have made Ra the lowest dorm due to Marik kidnapping his brother and forming the Rare Hunters to steal cards from duelists. I really think it was just going in order of how good the God cards are.
Holy crap this was surprisingly good. I really like the new takes and the new storyline!
Alexis winning a duel that's important for her character development instead of flopping hard on her face and having the male protagonist develop her character for her by winning the duel against her rival?
You don't really know how this Yugioh thing works, do you?
Well he is willing to brake rules to make it better
He's true yugioh protagonist then Frank.
Bruh, this is awesome! A very cool take for what is technically a Yu-Gi-Oh What If so im very interested! And also a new sub too!
Totally love the idea of fix personalities for the different heroes.
Any rewrite is hard to do so respect for giving it a go! Looking forward to watching the episodes!
I love how I can imagine everything as u talk. Like tv in my head XD
Same, I'm even imaging Jaden's voice actor preforming some of his lines! XD
I'm really enjoying this series, Im also liking the changes you made to Jadan/Jūdai's deck
I think if at some point Jaden got Elemental HERO Sunrise it could prove to be really interesting
Also I wanna add that I think at the end having Jaden do something like Yusei did at the end of 5D's and end the final duel of the series with the original 6 monsters he got at the beginning would be epic
Now I only just started gx about a week ago and I already finished the first season today, I love what you did rewriting blairs character and writing chumlee out of the story all together but I dont really think that changing jadens deck wasnt all to necessary but I'm interested to see where it goes what with the different heroes being there own characters and all, I'm also interested to see where you go with the shadow riders since I dont really think that they were as bad as everyone else thinks but I do think that some of them were better characters and antagonists than others, all in all i'm really interested to see where this goes, keep up the good work man
So all his HERO cards will be able to speak to Jaden...idk about that. makes Winged Kuriboh and Neos less special
He said that Jaden would only have HEROs so Winged Kuriboh isn’t there, and since the Elemental HEROs are a one of a kind deck that means that the cards all talking makes them more like the Crystal Beasts
@ULGROTHA They are the reason why I couldn't be invested in Ultraman series as the Neos Fusions kept referencing Ultraman's weakness.
I mean...The whole series is about Jaden's power to connect with Spirits. So honestly that makes it more important unlike with the actual anime did.
Pretty sure at one point jaden might have heard burstinatrix to talk to the other heroes during the Blair fight so I think all his heroes do speak to him just that they aren't as prominent as winged kuriboh nor neos heck at S4 winged kuriboh is rarely talking on screen and got replaced by yubel as the duel monster that judai Been talking to a lot in the last season
This is really good. I look forward to the next video
I feel like have neo alius already is kinda weird cause well no neos but other then that this serious is amazing already
I assume the two of them would be reworked slightly in order for the connection to make more sense. For example, maybe Neos Alius is just a Normal Monster in this version, and Neos has a summoning condition based around Alius.
@@MetaWarlord135
Yeah would be interesting we just need to wait and see.
i think hes gonna have neo alius go through an evolution after the fight with aster
this is far more compeling then the first 26-7 ish episodes of gx which had allmost no plot. great job
This was great. Way more interesting than what I was expecting. Could you do 5Ds too? I would like to see a rewrite for Akiza/Luna
Dude! This is awesome! Please continue this series. You have all of my support!🙌
Rewrite? You mean fanfiction? Cx
I really like it!
I really like this. I love the dynamic that the heroes are all like roommates inside of Jaiden's head. The fact that Pegasus gave Jaiden the E-heroes and he gave up his old Yubel deck that will come back into play is a nice touch of foreshadowing. Also replacing Chumlee with Blair and changing her character up is a wise idea. I love what you are doing. Keep up the good work my man!
I liked the video a lot, my idea of " THE CHAZZ" would be he losts the tower of his proud and become a gimmick player with Ojamas. But im waiting for the next cap of this rewrite. TY.
This was actually really good I wasn't expecting it looking forward to the next one
Subbed
Yugioh GX is the best Yugioh in the series. Kinda wished Alexis and Jaden were together at the end
Bro how do you want Jaden to stand on his own but have Pegasus hand him his cards
Honestly, it's... just "meh" material, squarely stuck between "being good" and "being bad". It is just a bunch of inconsequential changes that at best don't address any of the anime's actual problems, and at worst just adds to existing issues or creates new ones.
It is barely even a rewrite despite the name. It is the same old story with cosmetic differences, with the same plot beats of "Jaden arrives late and has a Duel with Crowler where he uses his Heroes to win, Chazz is angry about Jaden beating Crowler and challenges him, Syrus has confidence problem that Jaden helps with, Alexis explores the abandoned dorm in search for Atticus and Jaden gets involved and Titan emerges to be the baddie of the week".
The first stretch about Jaden's deck is a bad call. Making Jaden's deck "artificially special" by giving it a BIG BACKGROUND ("Pegasus gave it to him") and MAGIC doesn't actually fix any problem. It just adds to GX's (and the others') bad habit of going overboard with sensationalizing the card game; both in the Actual Magic sense, and in its treatment of the card game, where "impossibly rare and unique cards" is way too common for any sane business. It also seems odd to have a Neo-Space card (Alius) in it without the rest of the Neo-Space set.
GX doesn't need to be more high-fantasy. GX needs to be more grounded than "lol magic and lol animu dek", because that's where it fails most at making a story with actual substance out of itself.
The stuff about the Crowler duel is also not great, particularly for the 4:05 bit. This whole take - "Jaden won because Pegasus and magical spirit help" - proves Crowler and Chazz right about Jaden being undeserving to be there, and is a big step down from the original in terms of being a Power Moment ("Jaden won because he is good at the game").
Chumley being erased pointlessly is just a solid "nope". There's no reason to cut him just because you want to have Blair in, not when he had a perfectly good character arc. These are not mutually exclusive.
Yeah I agree with you like I'm worried that this "rewrite" is just going to be the same story as the original one in the grand scheme of things and he actually made some stuff worse and add even more to the problems that's what I don't like about what ifs is that they are the same story without going into a different direction from the original since the entire what if would be pointless if it's going to have the same story beats as the original
This was a really well done reworking of the GX plot while still being faithful to it. I'm really looking forward to seeing where this version of events go
You are criticizing the fact that Jaden is established as a self-approved protagonist because he gets Kuriboh from Yugi, thus not having earned the role of a likeable character...
And while I agree with that, at the same time you make it so that Jaden gets his *ENTIRE* Hero deck from Pegasus??
I always liked the fact that Jaden played a Hero deck by his own decision and the show also elaborates on that a little. I think if anything, THAT should be a point that could be further developed.
The idea itself is alright, making GX better than it was before is appreciated, but I think your execution is lacking, at least for me.
Sry, didn't like :/
Yeah I got to agree because cool Yugi gave him a meh card which I'd feel yugi just being nice and giving to him since well he saw he was a duelist going to try out at the academy and thought "hum that's nice here, maybe might help you in your duel I don't need it for my deck, bye"
Nothing special just helping a guy out.
And the thought of oh here's a whole deck for you because this guy's boasting he can win, use this awesome deck to stick it to him seems more put of nowhere and doesn't stand to say Jaden already had deck from the show he had wasn't worth it and he needed it handed to him. As I thought Jaden utilitized his deck very well for the era, as all the cards he spoke about in the deck where either not print yet or coming out a bit later when the anime started but where in the manga.
I do like the thought of him having duel spirits more shown of the heros then of winged kirbo. But I think that could all stay with them as duel spirits with him already having the deck and having bonds already with them.
Actually what could have been done if he already knew them the monster talk to him while fighting crowler infront of the school as he has back and forth talks with his monsters and people thinking he's crazy chatting it up with his monsters in the middle of the duel.
An actually resonable take, how rare.
Also might I add, why did he make Jaiden/Judai such a Yuma character?
Also why does he keep winning despite having Yumas personality?
And certainly not last: For what reason did Chazz duel Syrus/Sho?
Glisca Radu oh yeah that part really annoys me like I do enjoy the idea of each of his monsters having a personality but making them the ones teaching him is basically Yuma (and instead of one spirit it’s a whole group really make it seem like he is a really bad duelist) and I don’t prefer that cause a) he said he passed the physical test and b) It kinda ruins his personality of someone who loves the sport of it, and is will love dueling even if he’s at the disadvantage I rather flesh out that personality
The way I see it, maybe it would have been better if Yugi gave Jaden his kuribo card AFTER his duel against Crowler... What do you think of that?
@@gliscaradu1424 Chazz at the beginning of the show was bully and asshole and he saw all silvers are lower than dirty so it would make sense for Chazz to duel Syrus to show everyone "Im the best student here!"
Bro this was awesome new sub easy. I'll be waiting for the next episode!!😁😁😁
You say that as if yugi didn't give a random kid in a random filler a card too. I think he just hands them out like candy.
i got a watapon
well they are cards for a game millions of people play so he could give away his dark magician and probably get like 20 more
As someone who loves rewrites, I can't wait to see what you come up with.
Too bad he hasn't done a second episode
please for the love of God make a second 1
Unless your planning to finish the first season in one video and work takes time and which case take your time
If i made a Yu-Gi-Oh rewrite it would be on Yu-Gi-Oh 5ds and Make Leo, Luna and Akiza better duelests and charters, with Leo being the 5th signer and getting Life stream Dragon and giving him a sad backstory with an OC named AI, considering the fact that Yusei, jack, crow and Akiza are the only four of the six main characters to get great development "Over" the course of the anime. Luna will also get character development involving her own doubts about her dueling abilities and gains more courage as the story goes on. I'm
also gonna make Leo and Luna an insect couple, because I find it Cute and develop their fellings throughout the rewrite Anime. Leo would also be a Duel-protag during the rewrite with an Arc that has him as a main protagonist in an Arc based on Yu-Gi-Oh R called Arcadeda R with Yako Temma having a problem with Leo and Luna over Devack, this would be a great way to have Yako in and give Devack more backstory and background. It also would have been great if Leo had noticed something was wrong with Lester, but didn't do anything, because he had convesed his fellings for Luna and she didn't accept them at first, so he wants her to be happy and after the duel with Lester (Leo and Luna win by the way) Luna accepts Leo as her boyfriend. Leo and Luna's parents will be named Lucas ( Moddoled after Seft Green) and Lyra sleepshine (moddoled after Maria from Sonic the hedgehog games). Would keep around Crash Town and a few other filler episodes, but they would focus on good character moments and development. Leo would also have Jaden Yuki's backstory with Koyo Hibiki when he was 10 and would already know Miduri Hibiki who would be a Big sister figure for Leo and Luna Just like Akiza. And that would be some of my ideas for a Yu-Gi-Oh 5ds rewrite, Hope you Love them.🎉
Me:*realizing they were awkward to dance with eachother and no Jaden to make a neutral friend ship* ah...I see what you did there mate

sorry if i mispelt anything
DZ now that's a bad deck, only 6 monsters that don't search in a fusion based deck so the brick rate is over 90% and just not enough power or defense to every use this.
I think this rewrite is awesome, can wait to see what you come up with next!
Just saying, Escuridao is actually pronounced "Escuri-Dao", it comes from the portuguese word for Darkness, "Escuridão" which is actually pronounced "Escuridauhmn" but since Escuridao lacks the "~" it's just Escuri-Dao
I was going to say that 👍🏿
"Es" as in Restore;
"Cu" as in Cull
"Ri" as in REEE
"Dão" sounds kinda similar to "Dawn", I guess? But with the a's sound more drawn out, I guess
Best I came up with
@@Yugi477 👏🏻👏🏻
@@Yugi477 wow well done
You have literally made the show 10 times better and far more enjoyable
Cool video and cool concept but I have a few different opinions
I don’t fully like the idea of jadens monsters guiding him through the duel it makes him seem like he’s really bad at the game and is technically just redoing yuma (except he just had one while jaden has multiple people telling him how to play) it takes away his underdog nature someone who has real potential and skill in the game but is just a bit to much of a free spirit, I also prefer the idea of even when jaden was on the ropes by Crowler he still was happy just to play.
I really like the idea of each hero being a character but I would switch blazeman with burstinatrix , she can still keep the same personality though, because I really wished they kept flame wingman as jadens ace monster instead of starting the whole protagonist 2500atk/2000def ace thing, also possible switching neos allius with sparkman scone he’s just a mini neos and vanillas deserve love to!
Lastly I would have made the fight between jaden and Chazz end more like in the anime, where they didn’t technically finished it with hints that jaden could have won because that gives a better impression there rivals and on an equal footing (plus the fact in their final duel Chazz could have played a similar card to win but choose not to out of respect and growth)
But all in all cool video I really can’t wait to see how you handle bastion because I feel the show really did him dirty and I say keep some of the goofier stand alone episodes since the show is so inspired by old college frat movies, slifer red is pretty much animal house, and it will help show stakes by contrasting with the more serious things get
I'm really liking this so far! Keep them up!
You make some interesting points. I'm personally very fond of Chumley (I have a soft spot for koalas), but your interpretation of Blair makes for an interesting character all the same.
The idea that Jaden picked up the E-heroes is a terrific one, though I must admit a fondness for the original generation--Burnstinitrix, Sparkman and of course Flame Wingman.
That said, all in all, this is a very fun idea.
Oh they're coming. In due time, my goal is to introduce pretty much every E-Hero in the archetype (though not necessarily every fusion cuz that's a lot and people other than Jaden need to duel in this rewrite).
@@SpellCommander91 even introducing every Main Deck Hero seems unrealistic
Yeah I honestly wished he kept burnstinitrix since I was upset they decided to scrap the idea of flame wingman being jadens ace monster (the dark magician of his deck) and instead started the whole 2500atk/2000def route of all protagonists
SpellCommander91 I’m just sorta curious do you have any plans on giving chazz the Ojamas because I always thought it was interesting that Chazz the rival also used lame/weak cards to great effect and would often have great results from scrapped cards he found which you often don’t see in rivals
@@SpellCommander91 , I look forward to your thoughts.
I must admit, I have a tremendous soft spot for Flame Wingman.
And you're not wrong about other kids needing to duel. Syrus has a great arc overall, but in the first season, he wins only one total duel on-screen.
And Alexis only wins twice.
I was definitely annoyed that only Jaden was the one dueling. So much for "crew in the schoolyard."
Good job!!! Keep them coming PLEASE!!!
