That's his Import voice actor that I believe passed away this year his ENGLISH DUB actor I believe is still alive despite that season 4 never got a English dub.
The reason why GX Season 4 was somewhat rushed and shorter than expected is because Judai's voice actor, KEN's contract was about to expire; so they had to air the season in contrast to his departute. I really wished this season had 40-45 episodes rather than just 24. Because of this, I can't rate it above Season 3, but it is definitely a unique and exquisite arc among all the Yugioh series and deserves it's own special place due to how dark it is; it really makes and forces you to think. Despite its somewhat wasted potential, it's still a really good season that came about under challenging circumstances.
@@Prime_770 funnily enough, I think it could have used maybe 4 more episodes at most. There wasn’t a point in time where I thought the season was dragging on. The hard turn was Mr. T vs O’Brien where the childhood trauma just hits you out of nowhere. I would have added an extra episode there and possibly a couple more transitioning from the Fujiwara duel to the Darkness duel. It’s clunky, but season 4 is a fun ride.
@@Adamame93 I felt like it kinda deserved the longevity of season 3 but now I think about it, Season 4 to me is not a final season but rather an Epilogue. I just felt clunky due to the fact of main plot / somewhat slice of life episodes to be really abruptly and suddenly placed between one another. I guess 6-8 episodes would have helped. Your take is respectful.
Really? They couldn't have extend their contract with them? i also read recently how one of the reason why the original DM anime might be tricky to redo is cause the original VAs for Yugi and Kaiba are difficult to reach out to these days, completely different to Dan Green and Eric Stuant, who I'm assuming would love for the chance to represent their respective roles.
Interesting i didn't know this, i did know that the production of 5D's was kicking into gear and they were looking to end GX at time to sync with the release of Synchro monsters. But i didn't know that the contract of KEN was ending. Very cool and interesting, having all of this in mind, maybe season 4 was destine to be short, reason to why it's so well pace.
The 4th season of GX is my favorite season for how Judai, aka Jaden, changed as a character while also showing his improved skills as a duelist and how he regained his love of dueling after the trauma from the previous season. I also enjoyed the character development of the rest of Judai's friends this season. I especially love how the duel that fully restored Judai's love of dueling was him dueling Yugi Muto, and by extension, Atem in the past. It was a great way to end the series.
I wish they made a season 5. But anyways, to summarize GX I'll use a quote from my favorite movie, "Everybody loves a hero. People line up for them…cheer them…scream their names. And years later, they’ll tell how they stood in the rain for hours just to get a glimpse of the one who taught them to hold on a second longer. I believe there’s a hero in all of us…that keeps us honest…gives us strength…makes us noble…and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady and give up the thing we want the most - even our dreams." ~Aunt May Spiderman 2
im from the gx era back in 2006 watched the show on cable still have my heroes from then and new one now luv this video i also have the complete gx s1-s4 on my sd card now rewatch it so its good to know this generation lives on through generations ❤
I really like how darkness eludes to the fact that the future will be a bleak and desolate wasteland and in the movie bonds beyond time, paradox also sees this future and how duel monsters was the core of it and tries to destroy the card game before it brings about this future
Appreciate you taking the time to make this. Like most people I missed out on what season 4 had to offer besides the final duel so it was really cool to see it all in an easy to digest video.
@@oak3785 lol no, just me cutting down my script when I edit drafts to get to the key part of duels. I bet if I were to look at each season’s word document, I may have written it a lot 😅
From what I read online, its speclated that that movie takes place right before Yusei goes to Crash Town, so either include it in that season or in a separate video.
Its funny. The universe starting from a single card may seem insane. But… then we get to Zexal and the Numeron code… and then the vision of the future looks a lot like the end of the bad future of 5ds
@@nsasuke4447 Trueman making him relive having to choose which parent to save by having O’Brien (Axel) choose which monster he wants to keep on the field was not at all what I expected when I first saw this season.
Wait, so, Kenzan was naturally, like, a dinosaur in a past life, but also lives with the bone of a dino that was eaten by the dino he used to be? Bruh we need Maury to break this shit down
Its funny. The universe starting from a single card may seem insane. But… then we get to Zexal and the Numeron code… swear there was foreshadowing to 5ds as well from darkness forget what it was
The excuse that they wanted to get to 5Ds is weird like, what could of cause them to be so behind in their dubbing that they had to abandon ship with season 4 of GX? They didn't even dub the entire 5Ds anime either, they didn't dub the last few episodes in the series
I love season 4, my main problem is all 3 of my favorite characters get done dirty with only 1 duel each. Zane, Axel & Atticus. Atticus got it the worst just cause bro has no wins on screen. Bro lost to Jaden twice, Zane, Alexis & Fugiwara.
@Bean13626 your list makes no sense, especially the 5-10 placements. Mine is as accurate as it can be. You can argue that S4 Judai can beat prime Kaiser, but S3 Judai definitely loses. Anyway, if you want, I can leave a big explanation about why is prime Hell Kaiser (late S2 and early S3) arguably the strongest gx duelist.
@@Adamame93 I recomended, I'm reading it now, and its a completely different story than the original anime. I think after the original DM manga, every other YGO series is completely different in the manga vs anime

@@joemomma9903 think of it like the Pokemon tcg where the champion has a replica deck published after winning a tournament. It’s memorabilia more than anything. There isn’t a lot of clues about what Yugi is doing in GX when it aired. If we count Dark Side of Dimensions, he’s creating his own game.
Next time… “Yugioh, Akira Edition”! We got Motorcycles! Cyberpunk Dystopia, A Corrupt Government, Racism/Social Inequality, Cultists (for the last time for this franchise), & Psychic Powers!

this is my first time here, is "by increasing Neos attack points and wins the duel" a gag here cuz i realized that's how jaden always wins lmao
@@oak3785 lol no, just me cutting down my script when I edit drafts to get to the key part of duels. I bet if I were to look at each season’s word document, I may have written it a lot 😅
Thanks for the edit on the Chronos duel, i started tearing up when i remember all my feelings watching that duel and how much i love these characters
Jaden vs Yugi is so freaking cool! Probably the best duel in the series.
When you do 5ds, make sure to do a segment after the dark signers arc about bounds beyond time. That movie is Canon.
From what I read online, its speclated that that movie takes place right before Yusei goes to Crash Town, so either include it in that season or in a separate video.
THAT OPENING IS STRAIGHT GAS MY GUY.
I just realizes this season is almost like a sequel of waking the dragons

The fact that you used Kingdom Hearts music behind this video shows me that your a person of culture. Great video!

To see his mother burning is very traumatic .

I watch these vids for the jokes but those intros hit everytime deserves more love
Thanks for this!
Season 4 of GX even with a limited ep still pulls off a great theme/metaphor with dealing with depression and nihilism
4th grade me: *googles* "Yugioh gx episode 156" ENGLISH DUB
I love gx and Jaden
Wait, so, Kenzan was naturally, like, a dinosaur in a past life, but also lives with the bone of a dino that was eaten by the dino he used to be? Bruh we need Maury to break this shit down

If I were stuck floating in a hopeless hellscape and JUDAI was the guy trying to pull me out of it? I’d jump I to the freaking void.
Dude just casually adds a brick to his deck like nothing happened lmao
It would have been EXCELENT to have the 4th season here dubbed in English.
Surely with all the new AI it would be possible
Dang Jaden really matured. I didn’t know he was like why I got as deal with this .
Then the slap wow .
*sees Super Conductor Tyranno*
That's my boy!
*Super conductor tyranno explodes*
Oh no! My boy!
Tyranno: Father help!
I enjoyed Original, Gx and 5DS i think season 4 and season 3 were the best. Supreme king was so powerful with those evil heroes
Still the darkest arc and best
I’ve hit the follow button to see if I can get closure of the last season of 5Ds that was never dubbed
@@Broncoboy2011 I apologize in advance: it will take a while to get there as a 1 man show with a full time job and a toddler at home 😅
🔥🔥🔥
i wish the japanese va of manjoume didn't passed away its not fair still i love jaden in this season well all seasons to be precise
Kendrick as the boogeyman is hilarious tho
Too bad this wasn't dubbed, on the other hand 4Kidz would have butchered it lol

@@Lucario1121normal people don't care about Dub, especially not Yugioh dubs where even the soundtracks are different, lol. Dub is just a parody..
Gx always feels unfinished, even after season 4 , i wish they would continue the story
Really hope they make season 4 dubbed
Don't worry....4th time the charm
Aster is younger than Chazz? I thought that was the other way around
Edo/Aster is younger than almost everyone except Rei/Blair. Chazz was just childish and prideful.
I love season 4, my main problem is all 3 of my favorite characters get done dirty with only 1 duel each. Zane, Axel & Atticus. Atticus got it the worst just cause bro has no wins on screen. Bro lost to Jaden twice, Zane, Alexis & Fugiwara.
not only jaden change this season he looks different and older

Wcoanime
This season has a very weird vibe, it’s dark and I love gx for its slow progression into seriousness
However as a ENGLISH DUB it NEVER got one for GX.
It was too Judai-centered, many good side characters were ruined and wasted so that Judai can shine, not just Kaiser. This is normal in Yugioh animes, but in GX it was too much.

Nah, his duel with yubel was a good sendoff
👍
Did yugi quit cause they are making copies of bros decks like crazy
@@joemomma9903 think of it like the Pokemon tcg where the champion has a replica deck published after winning a tournament. It’s memorabilia more than anything. There isn’t a lot of clues about what Yugi is doing in GX when it aired. If we count Dark Side of Dimensions, he’s creating his own game.

The problem is that DSoD is in the manga timeline
Why are great Japanese artists people so young? Life expectancy is high there 😢
Next time… “Yugioh, Akira Edition”!
We got Motorcycles! Cyberpunk Dystopia, A Corrupt Government, Racism/Social Inequality, Cultists (for the last time for this franchise), & Psychic Powers!
Season 4 has some nice moments but overall it's a bit convoluted and the weakest season.
The villains for one are a bit thin and bland
One of the worst Yugioh seasons, it was very very bad tbh..
really? sure, its underwhelming at points, but ties up everything perfectly, almost too fanservicey, later seasons fail at the end.
I wish the 4th would've had an English version.
Use the English names or don’t make the videos 🙄
