I love the fact that the entire YuGiOh timeline happened as a result of Seto Kaiba being filthy rich.

he wasn't filthy rich, he was a orphan that was genius who used his intellect to be adopted with mokuba into the kaiba household where he was tormented into becoming a psycho that only sees money but despite this he ruined his father stopped the entire business of weapon manufacturing and other shady stuff and made kaiba corp into a genuinely good company that was focused on toy and other children entertainment like amusement parks however, kaiba was not sane after the mental torture that his dad put him through in the end he started making death games and slowly going insane until yugi stopped him and shattered his mind (a spell) forcing him to overcome his demons restoring him back to normal.

The zexal stuff was skimmed over. Basically, zexal revolves around the number wars. "Numbers" being those xyz monsters (ie number 39: utopia). They're basically sentient fragments of creation that like to possess their users and kill people for shits and giggles.... most of them, anyways (not all 100 have the same "I'm bored, let's kill things" personality). These 100 numbers are pieces of the numeron dragon - aka the numeron code. The numeron code itself was that single card that can alter reality, which gx teases in the final season. As yuma & astral are collecting numbers, they get engulfed in a literal war between heaven and hell. Astral world = heaven, barian world = hell. Each side wants to get the numeron code to nuke each other out of existence, and since the numbers are scattered across earth, earth is the battlefield for this war of the heavens. Yuma & the friends we made along the way all fight and mostly die trying to stop barian world's invasion in a sci fi version of biblical armageddon where the barians are using the powers of the numbers they've collected to make pseudo-shadow games, and yuma & astral eventually save the day & collect all the numbers by killing space satan (don thousand) in a card game. After that, astral leaves and uses the numeron code to not only give regular people access to magic again (chaos) and bring the billions of people who died in the battle back to life - before fucking off back to space heaven.

4:20 Regarding tearing the Blue Eyes White Dragon, that's actually a carry over from the manga version. In the manga, Seto Kaiba had previously stolen the card from Yugi earlier in the story and Yugi/The Pharaoh challenged him to a Shadow Game version of Duel Monsters to get it back. When Seto was about to lose, he attempted to use the Blue Eyes against Yugi, but it refused to attack out of loyalty to Yugi's grandfather and sent itself to the graveyard instead, which let Yugi bring it back with Monster Reborn and win the game. Sometime later, Seto comes back to get revenge on Yugi by inviting him to an amusement park death trap to terrorize Yugi and his friends, before challenging Yugi to a rematch and rips up the grandfather's Blue Eyes so that it couldn't be used against him. The first episode of the anime adapts their rematch as the first duel between them, with Seto's introduction from his first appearance spliced in to establish his character. 10:19 That's actually not that far off. Kaiba Corp was a weapons manufacture that had been making it's money by selling arms to both sides of any ongoing conflict, until Seto took over the company and restructured it into a game company. 36:47 Funnily enough, the Megami Tensei franchise is pretty much built on the premise of some kid making a computer program to summon demons.

To add in, Kaiba had a battle with Yugi's grandpa first, like in the anime, where he wins and then rips up the only Blue Eyes White Dragon in his possession.

[@francohs2441]

Yes true

[@chaosspear0195]

True but I do think his last bit here is pretty dang solid how the blue light duel disk before unavailing himself for a grudge would leed to a cascading different outcome with digital dueling like in Vrain since the company would to a whole different direction without “screw the rules I have money”man in charge wether he got humbled or not changing the worlds events and history without the overwhelming Kaiba Corp direction for the world society.

[@christopherb501]

​@@chaosspear0195Also true. Foe what it's worth, they do ultimately come to the same conclusion with Vrains, that it's the future of the OG manga.

I’m loving the Sevens dub right now ! Romin and Roa are definitely my favorite characters!! It brings me back to those Saturday morning cartoon vibes that I wish I could go back to! It’s nice to have a new Yu-Gi-Oh show to watch weekly. The switch game is a nice change of pace too. I see the 2 new shows get a lot of hate because of the new studio and art style but I think they’re a nice rebranding for the complicated game of Yu-Gi-Oh!

I liked pendulum summoning. You can summon multiple monsters in one turn and then proceed to do other types of summoning method for your combo

[@GamefreakRX]

Z-One is actually NOT an android unlike Antinome, Aporia and Paradox. He is the only one who did not die of old age. The machine he's inside of is plugged to him and prolonging his life. Thats partly why he willingly dies at the end of 5DS to destroy the Arc Cradle. You can make an argument that he's somewhat of a Cyborg as he's permanently part machine. But he is still himself. Android Aporia, Antenome and Paradox are technically not the same people as their original counterparts, just AI android copies.

[@CindyHelms]

So, someone already mentioned it, but the summoning limitation in VRAINS was lifted soon after it happened. Duel Links is a perfect example of it being lifted, cause you can Synchro, Fusion, XYZ and whatnot multiple times, no Link monsters needed.

[@thequester8271]

I saw this video. It actually blew my mind. 🤯

[@glitchmakerygo]

"are you really gonna use the hamburger one?" Well, yes, actually. They gave Hungry Burger an entire archetype! The Yu-Gi-Oh players freaked out cuz of it!

[@NatasWhite]

Fun fact, the final non dubbed season of GX (primarily the devil like guy that Jaiden fought at the end) kinda references both 5Ds and Zexal

[@Arcana_zero_studios]

You can't judge yugioh for relying on card games for solving all problems. In beyblade, MOSES PARTS THE RED SEA WITH A SPINNING WOODEN TOP!

[@Funloverparty]

Bro really just covered the Filler Arcs in Duel Monsters, but straight up ignored the Earthbound Immortal plot in 5D's?

[@jaernihiltheus7817]

I mean, he also skipped over most of zexal.

[@stickydog_hopkins9860]

Yeah. Before Kaiba gained control of Kaiba Corp. from Gozaboro, Kaiba Corp. originally dealt in military weaponry if I'm not mistaken.

[@Hinotoriz]

Did he just forgot that Duel Link story being a canon after DSOD?

Spoilers for 7 and go rush anime. 48:30 some bad news for his timline: as far we know now. Go rush is before 7 but like in a different timeline that Yuga made the split from the 7 timeline. Like its just better to watch it then say it to someone who does not know it.

[@cheex9268]

It seems like every yugioh series after the first has a sort of unsatisfactory end. Spoilers. GX : We never see Jaden finished his duel with Yugi and the Pharaoh or even use his newly acquired power against Atem. 5Ds : leaned too much towards time travel as well as being rushed, resulting in the dip of quality and cut content. Zexal : had Yuma fight Astral, but pulled the greatest Deus ex Machina and summoned a number from the future called: Utopic Dragon and Utopic Future to win. He cheated. Arc-V : had Rei pull the greatest Deus ex Machina ever by top decking 4 cards that specifically counter ZARC called En Cards, each card negating a type: Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, Pendulum and also cannot be negated or responded to. We also never get to see Yuto, Yuri, and Yugo as well as their female counterparts. VRAINS : Ai's sacrifice was pretty much meaningless since he's not dead, granted, he did achieve his goal of saving Yusaku. (Also, Teenager Playmaker never lost a duel, Blue angel never won an important duel, and the best part of the show is Soul burner.)

[@danielzakgaim2764]

I also recommend the timeline created by the channel "Yugioh Everything". It is similar to SpellCommander's timeline, but I personally prefer Yugioh Everything's timeline because he uses more hard evidence to support his claims.

[@christopherb501]

And he also dives into more direct analysis of manga.

[@J.P1981]

I've been out of the Yugioh game both figuratively and literally for almost two years now. And now you've pulled me back in. ThankyouIhateitbutIloveitagain.

[@Nobodydigausta]

to answer your question about GX's ending, I'm guessing you only saw Season's 1-3, as they were the only seasons to get localized. Season 4 was Sub only and that's the season Jaden gets crippling depression, fight's the devil, goes back in time to duel Yugi and Atem, and then becomes a Vagabond. Because of the way DM and the dub ended, I thought every part of Yugioh would end with the MC kicking the bucket because Season 3's ending made it looked like Jaden died

[@awesometastic-1017]

I can’t remember where I saw this, but Kaiba Corp was originally a weapons developer and dealer. Kaiba was the one who closed the weapons development and turned to games and anything that would make the games better.

[@Eliras24]

36:30 no, rituals do actually work: they keep people together in different forms of congregations, we do call societies which allows humans to do incredible things and sharing knowledge. Which is quite of an impressive feat, that no other animals can do. So, yes, rituals do work, in real life, and pretty well too, for their actual goal and purpose

[@patricklatham3897]

Black Luster Soldier was a ritual monster with the exact same attack and defense stats as Blue Eyes White Dragon.

[@DigiRangerScott]

[@ThatOneBlueFlower]

I know this vid is a year old, but Go Rush is actually a prequel (TECHNICALLY an interquel because of time travel garbage but it mostly takes place in the past.) It’s implied to happen at some point before Arc V too

[@The_One_In_Black]

Not a physicist, but from the books I read 10+ years ago, I think the deal is that when antimatter meets an equal amount of matter, they both break apart into pure energy. Theoretically that wouldn't have the waste of nuclear energy.

[@christopherb501]

Would still have DRASTIC IMPACT tho if not channeled carefully.

[@liamwillis860]

4:56 Just before that, there’s a short timed duel between Yugi and Pegasus to set up this plot.

[@Doktah_Zari]

I'm just going to say, it would have been interesting to hear the original author confirm that both worlds are cannon and he was creating his own version of the Nasuverse (That at least makes sense), sadly he can't, but I will at least see it that way because both versions are good in their own way. 😢

[@JohnSmith-iw1wd]

Takahashi stopped being involved with the anime after 5D's, it was purely Gallop's domain from that point forward.

[@lucygirl1111]

[@GuardianAngelEatos]

Why do people hate 5ds so much I never will understand! I love it! Sure, dueling on motorcycles is odd, but the characters and story are great! Holy moly there are eight of them now?! Man it's been that long since I've watched a Yugioh series?! 5ds was the last one I watched.

[@yusheitslv100]

Dylan from Yu-Gi-Oh Everything has his own version of this theory, which is also worth checking out.

[@DarkMarxSoul]

What're the major differences?

[@ImPyroChad]

24:10 If you love fusing and pokemon then I'd recommend you check out the Shin Megami Tensei series, Its basically a Pokemon game with Yugioh's monster designs and Fallout decision making

I like how patterz says he likes to revisit duelist of the roses but doesn’t know white hole. That game is how I found out that card even existed as a child lol

[@alicesaumure6217]

in regards to the dark hole thing at 37:40 and it "not being used" It actually still sees some competitive play even earlier this year as a way to out monsters that the opponent gave to you that directly prevent you from special summoning. White hole is still terrible regardless, but I just wanted to make clear that dark hole is still an okay card with a new monster just revealed like a week ago that'll be able to search it. it's all pretty neat

in that universe is not child's games, cause clearly they said it multiple times, is energy and produce energy thanks to kaibacorp, but before that was like a chessgame basicaly, and for obvious reasons clearly stated on the shows and manga, it resolves around that "card game"

[@JohnSmith-iw1wd]

It's all fanwanking/theories, not real connections.

[@Blade1515]

Here’s a Idea, what if when the original universe split, it didn’t exactly split, it created 4 alternate dimensions that Ray and Zark went to while the original dimension was left to develop on its own and the dimension was weakened originally but repaired over time.

[@TheRichmaster24]

having spoken with actual programmer, there is a good amount of crossover with rituals

[@cah137-y4s]

On the subject of the Sacred Beast cards, I highly recommend the theory on their origins from this same channel. This guy finds a _buckwild_ possibility about where they might have come from in-universe and I love it so much.
