yugioh gx

did this have amanga or was it completely made up
i heard it had no connection to the original

Its has a manga but it has different cards from what I've seen in the beginning.

not that i'll ever watch it

i just don't understand how it could have astoryline
considering the original stems from egypt and dark games etc

It has the shadow realm but not long, then it goes to some whacky stuff. 5d has nothing to do with the original story.

well there are three new evil god cards. Jaden turns evil in one arc, other characters are corrupted, there's alot of mind manipulation i'd say. Yugi does make cameos, the whole Duel Academy was founded by Seto Kaiba and Jaden's best friend has the same last name Truesdale.

except for the fact that yusei, yuki, and yugi are all present and able to duel each other...

I think it has some time travel in the 2nd movie

which would still be hard to explain.

Well the bad guy is traveling through time.
Anywho, is that Yami or older yugi?

You can't really say that, they're all the exact same universe in pretty much the same city.

Hell, Duel Academy ends up going to Domino City.

Yeah, but it has no shadow realm in 5d its a whole new thing with new and more rigged gods that nearly kill the main character.

Good, I like when premises keep getting more absurd.

Egyptians Playing Card Games?
Evil Double Personalities and Hermaphrodites?
ANCIENT DRAGONS AND DUELING ON MOTORCYCLES?

God, this series reaches levels of absurdity with each new season.

And I love it. What I don't like is how the side-characters are treated in GX.

There 5 dragons, and I think 6 gods
A whale, monkey, gecko, giant, bird, spider, and another bird
ok 7 gods.
The whale, and a bird are from 2 characters that are alive now in the series who die in it.

i still kinda feel sorry for daitokuji--sure he comes back later, but as a ghost so its still kind of a buzz-kill.

Manjoume gets it worse, he goes from serious, good duelist and rival character to just some random side character used as the butt of several of the shows jokes.

Misawa gets the worst out of everyone though, he literally disappears off the face of the Earth after Season 2 only to show up in some picture in the last episode, poor guy.

I forgot how awesome the manga was.

Well... the manga is infinitely better than the anime.

Oh yeah, the dragon he hid away so he could become strong without it. But it called to him, etc etc.

Better Spirit Partner for Manjoume
Manjoume actually wins against important people
Misawa has something of a role
Kaiser isn't an ass all of the time
Asuka serves some purpose other than breasts
The Egyptian Stuff starts coming back in the plot
Judai isn't invincible and doesn't break down after losing a duel
Hell, even the new characters are well written.

Whoever writes the fucking manga obviously has more talent than the idiots who wrote the anime.

GX is by the same guy who did original YGO.

The manga? I can definitely see that. The manga version was better in both aspects.

Although I would be lying if I said the fillers didn't provide some lulz... and rage Yami.

i enjoyed the great leviathan filler arc. yami duel-pummeling weevil was a great stress reliever.

Ehhhh, Motorcycle Riding Henchman were dull... and Australian.

And really Siegfried von Pinkhair or whatever the fuck his name was basically Kaiba + Pegasus without the fun. That whole Duel Arc was so shit.

Also, I can't ever forgive the writer for making Marik job to beat Joey despite that Joey was kicking his ass for half of that duel, it's amazing how the author refused to have Marik be beaten by anyone other than the main character, hell Kaiba could've beaten him too.

But this series is infamous for jobbing, I just felt it was at its worst in the duel with Marik vs Joey.

If it wee regular duel he would of won.
Did Yugi give Joey his red eyes back? Or did he loose to him for it.
