I really like the big guy he was my favorite character growing up in the philippines

[@changvasejarik62]

My guess for why shendu possessed Jackie in the finale was because opening shendu’s door exorcised valmont. Also I look forward to season 3 & 4. As a fan of WOT2K you fill a special void he left, next paycheck I’m joining you’re patreon.

[@karlgrimm3027]

The episode where they team up with Valmont is the best. When Tohru says to him “You made me fight a demon” Valmont sarcastically says “That’s totally different from what Chan has you doing now” When Jade sneaks in to join them he says “So that’s why your niece is always with you. I always assumed you were horribly irresponsible.”

[@Colby2D]

lol valmont was so good in that episode, and even managing to watch Jade properly was so good

[@marocat4749]

And he has good points too.

[@reicherwallace6774]

​@Colby2D For a evil underworld ring leader he's pretty responsible.

[@silver2zilver]

The horribly errosponsible bit throws me everytime lmaooo

[@Ooomar000]

Yeah. Although Jackie makes tohru fight demons, he cares about him as jade as uncle. They become like a family

[@JudgeTyBurns]

When you get right down to it, Uncle’s magic chant is basically just “begone, thot!”

[@RedDragonForce2]

I loved the army of Jades vs the Mountain Demon. When she’s trying to get up, Jade just multiplies further and weighs her down again. Solid teamwork!

[@Colby2D]

I know It’s kinda funny that we never see any of the jades get hurt, like they’re just that good of a team, but I assumed the demon would just knock 20 of them out with a slap or something lol

[@RedDragonForce2]

@@Colby2D the Jades had grabbed key parts of her, like her hands, so she was struggling from surprise that someone could hold her down before she put effort into it, only to be surprised again when Hade multiplied further. If she was ready for an army of Jades, then yeah… we’d see Jades being taken out left and right.

[@supersaiyandiclonius3056]

I honestly thought it would end with all but the main Jade getting sucked into the portal with Po Kong.

[@RedDragonForce2]

@@supersaiyandiclonius3056 that would make for a really dark ending, since they infinitely duplicate… you’re subjecting infinite Jades to any and all torture by the Demons.

A small moment I enjoyed is that in episode 11, the Demon Sorcerers call Uncle "The Chi Wizard!", implying that they see him as a legitimate threat.

[@Colby2D]

I liked that part a lot🙂 uncle has juuust enough cool or powerful moments to still be hilarious

[@Debatra.]

For whatever reason, "levitation plus speed equals flight" is one of those odd little things that just stuck with me for all these years.

[@idongesitusen5764]

Same here.

[@hoarsebard]

Uncle's "One more thing" catchphrase may be a reference to the crime series Columbo, where the titular detective is also known for saying exactly that before he reveals the murderer.

[@Colby2D]

That is really interesting, I’ve never seen Columbo but I know it’s really popular in Japan, and Jackie Chan Adventures definitely seemed to have a growing Japanese influence throughout the show

If his favorite food was wings I would’ve lost my mind

[@Kishiwii]

It makes sense for Jackie when you step back to look at his life. He's always just wanted to be free!

[@jthecaffeinatedcrow6456]

8:06 Fun fact, these are the same 8 Drunken Gods that Jackie Chan studies in his movie "Drunken Master". I know, I know "obviously, they're based on the same mythological figures", but I find the connection intriguing. I'm not great with the names of the Immortals/Gods, but next time you watch Drunken Master, during the training scene, in the order he trains, here's the demon they defeated. 1. Shendu, Fire 2. Bai Tsa, Water 3. Xiao Fung, Wind 4. Dai Gui, Earth 5. Po Kong, Mountain 6.Tchang Zu, Thunder 7.Hsi Wu, Sky 8. Tso Lan, Moon Edit: Feel free to take this with a grain of salt. I realized that the show actually displays the Immortals facing the demons, but it shows the immortal who defeated Dai Gui holding a fan and the Immortal who defeated Xiao Fung using a sword.

[@Colby2D]

That is so cool, thank you I’ve made note of this and definitely want to watch it this summer!

@Colby2D AWESOME! I hope you enjoy it! I'm relatively new to your content, but greatly enjoying it!

[@valinsummers2565]

Tohru was always my favorite character from the show.

[@Colby2D]

Me too, he just always makes me laugh

[@draketheduelist]

Tso Lan was always my favorite of the demon siblings. While the others were all cartoonishly growly or hissing, Tso had more of a tranquil fury thing going on, like he didn't _need_ to be big and smashy to make his point. Tso Lan also has one of my favorite exchanges: Tso Lan: "Behold my mastery of gravity." (blasts El Toro) El Toro: (levitates with the rooster talisman) "Behold my mastery of, uh..." (looks at talisman) "...Pollo." I see what you did there. Also, the reason Shendu stayed in Valmont was because the other demons stuck him to the first vessel he possessed, so they would know where to find him in the _incredibly likely_ event he tried to pull a fast one.

[@Colby2D]

Yeah that definitely made Tso Lan a lot more scary, because he had nothing to prove it felt like

[@customizationhere1397]

I love how you are covering JC Adventures, but i highly recommend you talk about the rest of season 2. Not just because they affect future season but because they are, in my opinion, some of the best episodes in the entire show. The episodes you covered are pretty much by the books but the filler episodes really felt like the writers said "Fuck it, we ball". That's where you will find the actually weird episodes. It also feels more character driven, so you get some of the best moments of the main characters here. This would also be a great time to talk about the characters more since I feel that's the heart of the show. Anyway, I hope you keep up the good work.

[@Colby2D]

I’ve heard great things about them, I might make a smaller follow up of like season 2 hidden gems like Tohru’s mother episode was such a fun idea

That time Jade called out the plot formula when she says, " Here comes my favorite part...NOOOOOOOOOO", as another demon goes back into the portal.

[@Colby2D]

Yeah Jackie Chan doesn’t break the fourth wall too too much but it’s always funny when they do, Xiaolin showdown was breaking the fourth wall a lot by the end

[@SlayerEndX13]

Woo - splendid vindication! What made JCA so special was that while each season was formulaic, no formula outstayed its welcome. It felt like every season was a different show with the same cast in the same universe.

[@Colby2D]

That’s a really interesting way to put it, I’m looking forward to how the next season will change the formula!

[@youtubeuniversity3638]

Imagine an alternate episode 9 where the demon starts to feel conflicted because Jade is just a genuinely good friend compared to what the demon's used to.

[@Colby2D]

That would be so sweet🥺

[@youtubeuniversity3638]

@@Colby2D Yeah honestly.

[@jthecaffeinatedcrow6456]

Well, you could imagine that instead of Jade giving part of her necklace to Tohru, Hsi Wu reveals that he managed to keep his half.

[@Earthenfist]

There's PLENTY of fanfictions with just that premise. Also a whole subsection of JCA fanfics focused around Dark Jade. And a lot of overlap between the two.

[@homebredpacman9715]

34:56 I think it was less so it being easy for him to possess Jackie, but if you recall it WAS his plan from the start to use Jackie's body but Valmont got in the way and Shendu possessed him instead as you explained. The caveat of this situation was Shendu's siblings allowed him to go back to the living world and enact the Pancu Box plan after placing a spell on him that LOCKED him to the first body he possessed so they could keep track of where he was since, as a spirit, he'd have been able to just jump from body to body to try and escape them if/when he failed (which he more than likely would have done). So the whole time Shendu is trapped in Valmont's body for the season and it took the original spell that banished Shendu to separate him and Valmont outside of an exorcism that I believe Uncle was trying to figure out the proper spell for.

[@Colby2D]

That’s a great point, I forgot about shendu’s siblings ironically being one of the bigger issues with the plan

[@homebredpacman9715]

@@Colby2D I kind of wonder if Uncle's exorcism would have worked if Shendu would have bailed or just bee-lined it for Jackie.

[@FangKing5]

Shendu was cursed by his siblings that he would be stuck in the first person he possessed so that they could find him if he betrayed them

[@Colby2D]

Oh yeah, that’s a good point.

[@MARStheFORSAKEN]

I think what makes jackie such a beloved "super hero" is that hes so relatable hes not a some superman or james bond (although he does work fo a secret agency) hes just an athletic archeologist and we often see him panicking and getting scared like in the title sequence when hes fleeing down the roof from the shadow ninjas thats a look of sheer terror on his face be he keeps trying anyway,its such an endearing character trait for kids and adults.

[@Colby2D]

Yeah him being goofy and humble always makes him easy to root for, and fighting demons makes him enough of the underdog to still be invested

Yiu mo gwai gwy (or whatever the spelling is) is literally the 4 things you said but it's a catch all term for all malevolent spirits. The second part is like quite informal and modern in telling someone to leave quickly. I assume they paired the two together for comedic effect. It'll be like saying "I command thee to leave, pretty please" - someone with scuff Cantonese

[@superblooper123]

I have a lot of love for this show, but one thing sticks out to me the most in retrospect. Jade is probably the single most likeable “child tagalong” character. Not sure what it is about her, because even as a kid I loathed that character archetype, but they really nailed it with her. The finale of this season was a nice focus for her.

[@Colby2D]

That’s really interesting because I’ve seen several comments saying they hate her, but I’m glad you like her! I’m relatively neutral on her, leaning more towards like

[@erikbihari3625]

Appearently, her inspiration was gosalyn mallard from darkwing duck! But since television tropes, take this with many salt grains.

I've heard Jackie Chan described as a martial arts master combined with weapons grade slapstick.

That’s a good way of putting it, I’ve heard “martial arts slapstick” and I think that’s why it resonates with people because it’s half bad ass half funny

One of my top nostalgic shows. I love how it featured weird creatures like the hopping vampire and Spring-Heeled Jack. I was on the anti-Jade train though. She could be funny but kind of a brat. But maybe that's her parent's fault for dumping her on relatives instead of learning how to parent. Messed up backstory now that I think of it...

I just want to appreciate that you recap these shows. It's amazing to be able to get a refresher all in one video. It's hard to take the time to re watch a whole series. And you point out so many things i never noticed on my own.

15:52 I'm only now realizing this. but the John Wayne talk there is likely a reference to Jackie's character in Shanghai Noon, where he goes by the name Chon Wang. Which is a joke reference about him later becoming a movie star John Wayne. Looking at the dates, this show came out in 2000, same years as that movie. So season 2 would have been 2001 meaning they had a year to work in this reference.

[@Colby2D]

That’s really funny, there was a couple references like that this season like when they said in that same episode “they took paradise and put up a parking lot” from the Counting crowd cover song that came out then

[@Dullsonic3]

Back then when I was a kid, I thought Uncle was saying “You won’t get my hinies now” during those rituals.

The wiki is correct. The incantation that Uncle says is Cantonese literally for the first quote and localization translation for the 2nd quote.

[@Baltux]

I love that you kept this series going, also proving my memory wrong. I somehow remember "the masks" being season 2, when I watched it as a kid. But I do also remember some of the plots from this. It's so weird with watching stuff as a kid on TV and only seeing some of the episodes being aired. I never rewatched the show through modern means in correct continuity. It was always just something I was hyped about whenever the opening started running on TV as a kid.

[@Retro_Red]

I think the symbol on the book was the same as the oni leader or at least because I had seen a couple of episodes from season 4 before the episode from season 2

[@Colby2D]

What’s interesting is that Hsi Wu/Seymour Wu Jahoozits was the first boy Jade had actually taken an interest in. Makes you wonder if Jade was lying to herself when she was getting over the bond she and Hsi Wu developed. Yes, Hsi Wu was faking it, but I think he would have come around if given a chance. He’s the youngest of the 8 Demons and not well liked, even amongst sibling rivalries.

I’ve grown up with a removed cousin who everyone in the household (including me) referred to him by the Chinese term for “little brother”. When I was in elementary school, he was in high school. Yes. I called him that. Yes, people who heard be call for him in public were confused. But yeah, him getting called Uncle by his cousins doesn’t really feel too weird, personally. If everyone in a household/family collectively calls him that, I just think it’s a nickname. Who knows, maybe his behavior was very uncle-like as a kid.

I like how you mentioned how capable of a fighter Valmont is. he's usually played for comedy at this point in the series, but as a kid watching this show when it first aired I thought to myself, during the episode where Jackie turns into a statue "Valmont legit goes toe-to-toe with Jackie and doesn't even get hit." Kinda feels like a power rangers thing where the main villain is clearly stronger than the rangers, but they just have their minions fight em. Always wish they did more with Valmont and his abilities to be honest, because it was rare in this show to see someone best or match Jackie in many ways.

Thank you that makes me so happy to hear, some people love the style and others don’t so that’s great feedback to hear

[@donkylefernandez4680]

Constantly giving Jade new powers by not letting her keep talismans and having her learn Qi magic later on is so refreshing. A lot of combat style animated characters have been acting a lot like pokemong ever since power scaling got to beam struggle levels. It's nice to see a power system that isn't entirely based around combat but rather how creatively you can use the powers and to what dexterity.

[@thetruesora]

With the first time Shendu tries to possess Jackie, before leaving the other demons put a spell on him to say "once you possess someone you'll be locked to that body" so that's why he was stuck in Valmont until Uncle sent him away. The second time Shendu then went to be nearer to Jackie and made sure it was a time he wasn't moving around or was likely to be knocked out of the way

[@MadMalManny]

Jackie Chan can sing. Remember he sang the Catonese cover of I'll Make a Man Out of You from Mulan

[@Colby2D]

I didn’t know that, that’s really cool!

[@marocat4749]

his song segmentbof little big soldier, also good movie, he singsgood too there.

[@strikermodel]

Jackie definitely wants to fly. That's consistent in these questions about him. 28:20 Uncle showing he can hit the demon before the demon can react is such a good flex lol 33:50 Yoooooooo!

[@Colby2D]

Uncle hitting demons or the section 13 guys is always funny because he has sick skills he’s just old lol

[@abucket14]

i was going to object that you weren't calling out the non-demon episodes. my favorite being the one where they get trapped in the castle that only appears at night

[@Colby2D]

I think I’ll try to cover them in the future, I appreciate it

[@usermanico]

the fucking ukulele apology hahaha

[@HereticalKitsune]

Oh man, this channel really gives me nostalgia. Thank you so much for bringing back teenage memories.

[@Colby2D]

Thank you for checking it out! That makes me happy to hear🙂

[@maxkillerfonzy]

Love the channel man! Honestly this is the kind of content that sucks me in. You made a 40-minute video feel like 15!

[@Colby2D]

Thank you very much, I tried really hard to just keep it all moving along at a fast pace, so that makes me happy to hear

[@blade8741]

Alright, Colby is special enough for my ritual of "eating food while watching a video." Continue being such a cool nerd!

[@Colby2D]

As someone who would rather starve than eat without a good KZbin video, I am honored

[@DroppedMyMarbles]

not the ukulele in the background of the "apology video" lmaoooo

[@JordanLeetheBoi]

I love your dog 😭I wasn't expecting a big ol pupper that was amazing

[@Colby2D]

Thank you he is super sweet and just 100 pounds of fluff

[@reaperproductions7058]

22:32 I can only imagine Shendu just watching through Valmont's perspective and screaming like the rest of them (except for Ratso)

[@BacklogReviewer]

Great video, this slaps, so glad you came back for season 2

[@Colby2D]

Thank you very much for checking it out!

[@nophone9311]

I literally just finished watching the video on season 1. What amazing timing.

[@Colby2D]

That is so awesome to hear thank you

[@ThatMecha]

@29:30 That pepperoni Pizza question is the same one I have about Vanilla ice cream I will stand on it that chocolate and strawberry are more popular and therefore more generic than vanilla ice cream

[@Colby2D]

Interesting, I always viewed vanilla as the absence of flavor as a kid, but I can see it being less basic if basic means most common

[@TrueWhovian82]

I really wish you'd gone over the episodes that didn't pertain to the main plot more. This season honestly had some of my favorites, including the vampire one, the chupacabra one, and the vanishing temple one. I can understand why you didn't, but still. ^^"

[@Colby2D]

I think I’ll cover chupacabra at least in season 3, if not a spin-off video or Patreon video maybe, since if I made another season 2 video exclusively I don’t think many people would want to click on it or think they’ve already watched it

[@marocat4749]

yep the vampire one with the man who knew to little one i think are my favourites. the personality thingviscso fun in the vampire one.

[@TrueWhovian82]

@Colby2D I know I'd watch a "All the one-off episodes I didn't cover" video. This series was a HUGE part of my childhood, so I could watch media on it forever! Also, fun fact, did you know that the ending theme "Chan's the Man" is in the tune of a song by the same band called "Punk @ss B!tch"? (Censoring so YT doesn't auto remove the comment, lol.)

[@Anime-Doom]

JCA season 2 was always such a weird one for me as it's kinda just two whole seasons smashed together, while season 1s episode were pretty well handled with both sequential stories and light-hearted shenanigans rolled into one season 2 felt like it split those aspects into their own sub-series. While I certainly like the Demon Sorcerers arc what I remember most about season 2 was was the standalone episodes, I'm really hoping that you cover that half of the season before moving on to season 3 and I REALLY hope you continue with the show through to end because season 4 was always my personal favourite.

[@Colby2D]

Thank you, I hear so much hype about season 4 I think I gotta continue it in June! And yeah I feel like season 2 improved on everything, but was a little bit all over the place

[@julioflores5946]

lmfao The sheep talisman cutaway was hilarious.

[@weathermangohanssj4]

The sunglasses aren't prescription, but the dude wore contacts.

[@NERlNERl]

I LOVED the Moon Demon's character design as a kid, I even remember drawing it and using that as an action figure 😭 Excited to see the rest of the seasons, 'cuz I only have vague memories of masks (Jade's tattoo sparked that memory, actually). What a huggable dog, btw ❤

[@Colby2D]

The moon demon is by far the strongest design I feel, and I think maybe they’re based off of Kaguya which is also a very moon related story.

[@moe3235]

Jackie went from being my hero growing up(seen all his work) to being a villain when I grew up and found out about his...uh "proclivities," to being my hero again when he chose to be against endless profiteering and wàrm()ngering

[@mariorodriguez-ws4xs]

Thank you!!!!! But I’m out of weed….gonna let this play in the back and go get re loaded….I’ll watch this twice and then go watch your OG one more time!!!

[@Colby2D]

Lol thank you I really appreciate it😭 I’m flattered that you would consider these videos a special enough occasion to wait for because I feel that way with food, like if I see a video I like I’m like “I can’t waste this, let me get food”

[@mariorodriguez-ws4xs]

@@Colby2D thank you for explaining uncles chant man. Me and my friends would always imitate it :3 thank you form a random soul!!

[@vampirekingdarkness9076]

So, i was sitting here thinkin the thoughts that need to be thunk, and realized... the dog talisman is related to immortality because of "every dog has his day"

[@aromaladyellie]

34:00 Jackie Chan is also the Chinese voice of Li Shang from Mulan. Both Cantonese and Mandarin.

[@JonFawkes]

Awesome review, looking forward to your coverage of the next season, it just gets wilder and wilder

[@Colby2D]

Thank you! I’m probably gonna cover season 3 in June, but I hear great things about season 4

[@JonFawkes]

@@Colby2D take your time with it, enjoy the ride, make the highest quality review you can

[@compareandcontrast9833]

6:56 At least you figured it out and admitted you need to do better. But chip was carrying that apology.

[@Colby2D]

It’s true, thank you for watching

[@kryzethx]

8:55 Wait wtf, you're telling me that the titular Jackie Chan of Jackie Chan Adventures.. ISN'T played by Jackie Chan? I can't believe this betrayal...

[@Jiiy]

I remember watching this season and thinking the Moon Demon's design was way too unique for this show, especially compared to some of his demon siblings. I do agree with the villain-of-the-week episodes being a bit too formulaic. It didn't seem like there were ever stakes that were too high. Also, I'd be really interested in seeing you cover Cybersix!

[@Colby2D]

I was thinking maybe it was loosely based on the myths of Kaguya. And I’m definitely putting cybersix on the list. I remember it was trending online last year but I don’t remember why, I think it may have been because of how it challenged gender norms.

[@andrzejwanoski86]

The part of the immortals creating the panku box but making it work like a key to the portals never made much sense to me, because when uncle banned the demons again, he explicitly said he sealed the portals forever. Why couldn't the immortals do the same in the past? Also where are the immortals, if the Chinese mythology is real, they must be in some type of heaven but never help again. The fact Shendu also escaped the netherworld with his full demon body before but never explained how before turning into a statue always bothered me because it felt like a plot hole.

[@Colby2D]

I’m not sure if they’ll be answered in the future seasons, but all those points are great questions. The portals never made a ton of sense to me, like if they were sealed away until the talismans came back

[@marocat4749]

Maybe they feared it being used to trap them again?

[@andrzejwanoski86]

@@marocat4749 they would not have to worry having to trap the demons again if they did not made the box act like a key that open portals at will and also free them. The fact Uncle is also like the best wizard in the series also bothered me. He always has a backup plan for any situation and can solve pretty much any problem. Except for japanese dark magic. Like, he sealed the demons forever instead of just sending they back again to the other dimension; he could locate all noble animals; he can block someone as powerful as Daolon Wong from entering a place, seal the dark chi warriors and even strip Wong from his powers. Wong is supposed to be even more powerful than Chi Fong who was the master of Uncle but he always loses. Uncle has very convenient magic for anything and is justified with being good at research. But who wrote all these books on magic? I also find it weird in this series that China has no apparent problem with the CCP controlling it from the countryside that is pretty much untouched from the imperial days and traditions, like magic and religion. I think in the JCA universe, China is still an Empire with a lot of folk traditions kept.
