==========================================================
The roster of villains in the Yu-Gi-Oh franchise is definitely an interesting one, with antagonists who can be described as anything from captivating, to charismatic, to egomaniacal, or just flat-out disturbing, and anything and everything in between. But I think one of my favorites absolutely has to be the Big Bad of Season 3 of Yu-Gi-Oh GX, the one and only Yubel.
Voiced in English by Cassandra Lee Morris, and by a combination of Hisao Egawa and Hiromi Tsuru in Japanese, Yubel is a Duel Spirit with a wide array of powers, a penchant for possession, a gender that can be best described as (waves arms vaguely in every direction), and above all else, an obsession with the one and only Jaden Yuki. But just what IS with Yubel's fixation on everyone's favorite Slifer Slacker? Why do they insist on dragging Jaden and everyone he cares about through other dimensions and putting them through twisted rituals? And just how is all of this done out of love???
Well, today, we're gonna find out -- so, grab your Duel Disk, throw down some facedowns, and try not to get sent to the stars, as I tell you all about the character arc -- and the tragic, twisted love -- of the one and only Yubel from Yu-Gi-Oh GX!

Hey everyone, welcome to this newest video all about everyone's favorite nonbinary Duel Spirit, Yubel! Considering that Yubel is one of my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh characters, I just HAD to make a video about them at some point, so, hey, here's this! Hopefully everyone enjoys this deep-dive into what makes Yubel tick.
I know I've been pretty scarce with videos this year, but I did want to get at least one more proper one up before the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLC drops (which, yes, I'll be doing a Let's Play of), not to mention Creepytober in October again. I assume the second half of the Scarlet/Violet DLC drops in either November or December, but I could probably try to get one more proper video out in between the DLC releases, so be on the lookout for that if it happens!
Hope everyone's had a lovely first few days of September! But just because we're on the way out from summer doesn't mean you can slack on your hydration, so DRINK WATER.
Hi
Hello, I'm Brazilian❤️🇧🇷
I was researching (one of many) my favorite card Yubel, and I found her channel
I really liked her video, I already subscribed and left that Like "Maroto" ❤ Congratulations on the video & "Aquele Abraço"🇧🇷
I swear that the guy who made Yandere simulator was inspired by Yubel.
There is a difference between being a biological hermaphrodite and thinking of yourself as transgender. Assuming her to be any form of "queer representation" when she was from a period of time where literally no one had made up such terms as "transgender," "intersex," and "nonbinary" yet is a massive logical fallacy.
Yubel and Jaden . . . . STILL a better love story than 'Twilight'.
Low bar, but still true
Don’t you dare compare the two lol
Yugioh GX is unironically a much better love story than Twilight
Yubel man....she was complex as all hell, even as an adult now, on rewatches I still can't figure her out. Thanks Daniel!
You're so welcome 😌
When you hurt someone they'll hurt you back that's her goal which is also what her effect is meant to represent
@hasshenjo6416 Yes, with mutual suffering, you can feel empathy
Agreed. She's a wonderful character, and I'm glad they're playable in Duel Links as well.
Still makes not that much sense lol still entertaining
1:44 Actually when you think about it, the reason why Jaden loves Flame Wingman so much is because he is basically Yubel, a fusion of a male and a female monster spirit! It must've subconsciously reminded him of them!
@@G-cisHarmonia congrats! Yubel has a fusion card coming out with flame wingman's dragon arm as mentioned @ 01:46
In a way, Flame Wingman's effect is similar to Yubel's. Attack a monster, and deal effect damage. Jaden even says multiple times that Flame is his favorite monster. Maybe he is indirectly talking about Yubel too.
Dang... that makes alot of sense. Alot of cards actually mention this with Favorite Hero and Contact. Neos Wingman, Neos Wiseman, and Rainbow Neos all kinda depict Jadens attachment to people.
Yubel character analysis videos in 2023 is my crack.
GX get's a lot criticism due to having a more "slice of life" feeling to it's story. What it lacks in scope and grandiose epic storytelling, it 1000% makes up for in how it explores the nuances, conflicts and resolutions of majority of its characters. To this day, I believe GX has some of the most fleshed out character in the entire Yu-Gi-Oh! series and Yubel was a MAJOR contributor. Her relationship with Judai made me a die hard fan of GX.
Oh yeah, for sure! So many characters in GX feel really layered and complex, and I honestly resonate with a lot of their arcs, which is probably why I keep going back to it, haha.
Yubel is basically a yandere if a yandere was turned up to ten
Ten? Bro, Yubel is at least a hundred on the yandere scale.
@@a_random_youtuber6151nah 1000
Yubel is an S tier villain in all of Yu-Gi-Oh. She is the reason why I loved Yu-Gi-Oh GX so much as a kid.
(I can fix her)
Another interesting thing about Yubel having both male and female aspects is that it ties into the alchemy themes introduced by Professor Banner from the first season of GX.
Not sure how deep this rabbit hole goes, but from what I know, in alchemy an androginous figure is used a symbol of something becoming "whole" and "complete", which is kind of a tragic irony considering how Yubel's story turns out until they fuse with Jaden.
Oooh, I really like that take! That might be worth looking into deeper at some point
Just to expand on this a little bit. The final goal of alchemy. The magnum opus (great work) is to create a Rebis. A fusion of male and female in one body representing order and chaos in one being.
a reconciliation of spirit and matter, a being of both male and female qualities.
And what I find interesting is that Avian and Burstinatrix fuse together.
A male and a female combined into one being.
And then the Yubel loving defender fusion replicating Flame Wingman's pose and dragon arm just further cements this.
I love the depth to it all.
The twisted love aspect of yubel was done so well that even if they were just a normal human they would have steel been an amazing villain.
I think the fusion of Yubel and Jaden is even more reasonable because of how Judai views love. As you mentioned his deck shows how to cooperate and uses fusion to do so. So what is the best way to show the way of true love than do that... show it
EXACTLY
Yubel is easily one of my favourite villains of all time, they manage to be entertaining, threatening and tragic all at the same time.
They are one of those villains that easily demand and retain all of your attention whenever they are on screen.
(also the new cards are great. Nothing feels better than using super poly to snatch an entire field of omni negates)
Oh yeah, absolutely! Like I said at the start, they just hit that sweet nexus point in between all of those different aspects that I really enjoy in an antagonist. And yeah, I'm SO looking forward to the new Yubel support dropping in the TCG! Though realistically, I'd have to wait until it comes to Master Duel to use it (since there's no local scene here that I'm aware of), haha.
Home girl just needed a hug
The line between love and hate is often blurred, and that's where the heartbreak lies. Yubel loves judai so much that she doesn't realize she was hurting him. Glad that she finally got the thing that she deserves and have a perfect conclusion to wrap her character arc.
GX is not only my favorite season, but Yubel is also my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh villian. Built the deck and everything back then when I went to the preview and it always stayed close to me. SO happy about the new Yubel cards coming out.
Big same on Yubel being one of my faves! And I'm so happy that there's actually a proper Yubel archetype outside of the original few cards now. Definitely gonna shoehorn those into my Despia Darklords Deck somehow and make it work if it's the last thing I do, haha.
One of the most tragically human aspects from my pov for Yubel's actions pre Light of Destruction is in how they tried to not only protect Jaden from the threats of Dueling, but to monopolize all of his time to themselves. You can't justify them comatosing children, but if OG Jaden lived for say 100ish years, that was all that time they got to spend together before Jaden died and Yubel had to wait 5000 years for him to come back. In this new life, Yubel could try the angle of justifying their actions to protect him, but some of the kids they put in a coma was actually just to stop them from getting close to Jaden. Maybe he'd only live another 100 years again before they had to wait another 5000. If so, every second of his life was the most precious thing in the world and Yubel didn't want a single one being wasted on others.
No matter what they became, they were born and lived their life first and foremost as a human. No human is going to endure so much time without something becoming twisted. Their desperation, while not justifiable, is at least understandable. It's a bit of a round about form of the saying "You either die a hero, or live long enough to become the villain."
Is Yubel redeemable? 100%. Heck, if Marik can find redemption after everything he did, then so to can Yubel. Honestly, I wish we had more villains like him/her. This very personal bond that makes them go to great lengths just to destroy/help/whatever.
Also thank God for the new Yubel support
I'm so happy about the new Yubel support, there's so many things you can do with the new Fusion card 😁 I'm absolutely making it work in Despia Darklords, haha
I mean Yami Marik was nothing compared to Yubel
He murdered a few people and was the evil side of another messed up guy, but Yubel? She was a guardian, oversteped her responsibilities and got twisted sense of "love" and she never understood it until Jaden fused with her.
@@SuperNerdDaniel yah it work despia makes any fusion playable
Not really, while Yubel seems to get better after the fusion with Jaden, it still did not changed what they done, same for Jaden in his villain arc, feeling regret, or stop doing bad things will not erase what was done before, and I kind of like it like that, as I think it makes both of their characters more complicated, flawed, and interesting in my eyes.
Probably the best Yubel video I've ever seen! I was a bit worried when you started with she/her pronouns thinking it might just cover the dub version but no! Jaden and Yubel are one of my most favourite relationships in fiction and you truly covered the whole complexity of it beautifully
Oh wow, thank you! Such high praise 😅 Yeah, Season 3 of GX is definitely the one I prefer the sub, just because I hate how 4Kids (in their INFINITE WISDOM) tried so hard to sanitize Yubel's motivations to a simple, "You abandoned me and now I want REVENGE muahahahahaha" angle and ESPECIALLY how they tried to simplify Yubel's gender when that's such a key part of their visual design. Admittedly, I usually do kinda lean more towards the dub interpretation of things with a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh stuff I cover (just because that's what I grew up with and I'm familiar with), but there's no way that doing so here would do Yubel justice because of how drastically different 4Kids tried to make them, visually and character-wise.
One of the best Villains of Yugioh period. I think this was the first Duel Spirit to become a major villian. But shes one of the most memorable. Im upset we didn't get more or season 4.
Okay, I might really need to watch Yu-Gi-Oh GX now. I'm seeing many similarities to other things (mostly video games) that I like. Jesse getting possessed by Yubel and Jaden having to go after them reminds me of the first Kingdom Hearts game, the whole "saving the world with the power of friendship" thing is how pretty much every JRPG plays out, and the way the original prince Yubel used his body to house a powerful spirit is sort of similar to how the Pale King created a pure vessel to be his child and contain the spreading infection in Hollow Knight, except here the prince actually volunteered to do it and wasn't just created for it. Not to mention that Cassandra Lee Morris is also the voice of Morgana in Persona 5 and Sothis in Fire Emblem Three Houses, so hearing that voice in a new context should be fun.
Yeah, GX is great! Obviously, it should be noted that a lot of what I talked about with Yubel's motivations and stuff is in the sub, as the English Dub (thanks to GOOD OL' 4KIDS) decided to alter their visual design to make it look like they were wearing a black shirt and just have him be decidedly female, and they tried to simplify Yubel's plans to simply being a "you abandoned me so now I want revenge" angle. I feel like there was still enough subtext in the English dialogue/writing to kind of extrapolate the original meaning, even with 4Kids' efforts to kinda sanitize it, but ya know, still just wanted to put that out there if you do decide to watch.
But honestly, the English Dub of GX in general is a gem, even if the humor can get a bit goofy and self-referential at times (they lean into the latter quite a bit more in Season 3, haha).
Lel. Didn't know the crazy demon-gf's va is the same as the Space-and-Time Loli's va.
I definitely remembered each moment of Season 3; both in sub and dub. Yubel was a complex character to understand when I first saw Season 3. After seeing what they did to Jaden made me feel pretty concerned for them. But after seeing Jaden's duel with Yubel, the anime lore behind how Yubel became Yubel, and the risk Jaden took, made Yubel open their eyes. I'm glad Yubel redeemed themselves.
This may be stupid to share, and cringy for those that read this, but during my Junior High years, I had a vivid dream and strange enough, it involved Yubel. She(as I called her as) told me her story, much like how you told us how Yubel came to be. After sharing her story, she asked for me to find her so she would join me and be a part of me.
I went to a trading card store, a week later and met someone who happened to be selling all three of Yubel's forms. After I got her, she felt elated, feeling her loneliness fading away.
Yubel hard carried Gx as a series and elevated it to a beloved series.
True!
UPDATE 2/16/24: Hey, everybody, thanks so much for getting this video to 20,000 views! I really appreciate the continued support on this video about one of my favorite Yu-Gi-Oh characters. I'll definitely do character arc breakdowns of other Yu-Gi-Oh characters in the future! 😁
The way I always saw it for the possession of Jessie that Jessie could be the light side reincarnation of Yubel
She's a hyper complex character with many confusing and questionable moments. However, as a person devoted to love, and determined to protect and love someone to such an extreme level, I can't blame her for some of the tamer stuff. The death wasn't cool tho
Also, I bet if your partner came home and told you someone was really mean and beat you at smth and was crying, you'd be annoyed as hell and want to get back at that person. When Jaden was that young, losing was really upsetting and painful, so it equates
I also love the new fusion is not only yubel being flame wingman to get his attention, but the German part of the name means the Eternal Love Guardian. I think that is beautiful, personally
Being shot into space is not great for someone's mental health.
A weirdly-accurate summation of Yubel's backstory, haha
I guess she needs therapy.@@SuperNerdDaniel
Yubel is my all time favorite character from any of the series, they were the whole reason I even watched GX to begin with and this video just made me love them even more, ehich i didnt wven know was possible
Wow, that's some high praise for the video, thank you! 😁
Bae got new Support!!
Hell yeah! I can't wait for it to come to the US, I'm gonna buy the hell out of those packs 😤😤😤
Yubel looks like a Heavily Modified Super Powered Succubus.
Hey… 😏
I like how you go by the dub version, even though I'm sure the sub has its own strengths (haven't watched it other than being forced to for the 4th season) the dub was so fun as well as the carefree ost. "Sent to the stars" haha love that part. The Big O OST works like a charm.. But missed the opportunity to use the "Now And Forever" outro as a Jaden x Yubel theme! I suggest going into 5D's
I did like how they gave GX it's own "fantastical threat", rather than just reuse the Shadow Realm.
(Shadow-themed threats wouldn't really have worked with the whole "exploding into particles of light" thing, anyway.)
Good point, it felt fresh.@@HylianBelmont
The character with the most complicated genderhistory across diffrent languages.
JP: Unspecified to both
EN: Male to female(trans)
DE(German): Literally just female for some reason(This is one of those times where I don't particularly agree with the german localization)
Idk about the other languages.
1:49 That actually kinda seems like going in reverse because of how the viewer is logically led to conclude that Flame Wingman is his favorite card because it subcontiously reminded him of Yubel.(You know, with Yubel being both genders in the japanese series and FWM being a fusion of a male and female monster)
3:53 Slightly offtopic to the characteranalysis, but I have never actually seen proper commentary on how intersex relates to non-binary(I don't think it really comes up often). It is generally considered the third gender(Or at least I remember it being classified as such like a decade ago when I was still a kid, I may be majorly behind the times here) and that throws up questions. The term "non-binary" assumes that there is a biological gender binary and not a gender-trio, so it actually feels like there is some vague conflict definition-wise.
6:06 Something I always found interessting that was changed dubwise(at least in german, but I assume in english too) is that they actually do not refer to the forces established in the second season at all. Instead, the neospacians are said to have encountered a "power of justice" and Yubel is said to have encountered some "dark force"(I assume as in, malicious, and not darkness as an element). It still works in the context of the story, I just find it very interessting how they seemingly intentionally cut continuity to S2 in favor of making the season more selfcontained.
6:45 Good old shock therapy.
10:11 Which is another dubchange I find very interessting. The dubdialogue implies that Yubel actually intended to grant Viper's desire but didn't because he lost to Jaden, so the deal's off. It makes Yubel seem a lot more honorable than in the original discussed here, where they instead "fulfilled Cobra's wish of being reunited with his son" by making him walk off the plattform.(Which the change weirdly can actually be seen as consistent with how the deal with Adrien/Amon went where...regardless of version, Yubel promised a thing, power, and actually granted that thing no catch involved. And it was Adrien/Amon who decided that being tied to someone else is no good and was the one breaking connections in that scenario.)
16:40 That is why JP series-Yubel rocks. Many people don't like it because they consider Yubel purely abusive, which does have some merit as a perspective, but it is really interessting to see a character genuinely having a backwards understanding of morality and emotion to the point where they have to be saved from themself. I'm the weird person who also likes Dub-Jubel in her own right, but this really hits diffrent. Heck, thinking about it, Jaden accepting to permanently become something completely diffrent in the end more or less mirrors what Yubel did back then.(Though I guess without the added pain)
The English Dub actually did kinda change the "Yubel getting hit by the Light Of Destruction" reasoning a bit, too -- Yubel explains that there are many different kinds of waves in space, and while the Neo-Spacians got hit with "one kind of energy", while Yubel "absorbed a darker form of energy". So they didn't outright name the Gentle Darkness and Light Of Destruction in this exchange, though later, in Ep 155, when Yubel gives Jaden that flashback, the king does at least refer to the cosmic energies as those of light and darkness when speaking to human Yubel.
I found that change interesting in its own right as well!
Same with Yubel's (paraphrasing?) "I see how much our friendship meant to you..." line upon seeing that Adrian decided to server their connection. They actually seemed genuinely disappointed/sad about it to me, rather than just annoyed.
Im totally new and only heard how cool yubel is from a random reddit thread. Please make more Yugioh Lore videos like this, i didnt even like yugioh but the pacing and script of this video is smooth like butter 🙏🏼please
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate that. If you like videos like this, I have a few more about other Yu-Gi-Oh characters on this channel you can check out, like Chazz Princeton or Adrian Gecko!
I feel really sorry for Yubel and what they went through got me upset about it as Yubel is also my fav yugioh card
Yubel s one of my favorite characters in Gx
Honestly after the events of season 4,she is redemmed.
Yubel’s story actually reminds me of another villain. That being Vetrix, the main villain of Yu-Gi-Oh ZEXAL’s first season and first half of Season 2. Both characters were “betrayed” by a dear friend, and went a bit crazy. But the similarities end there. Originally a researcher named Byron Arclight, Vetrix, along with his friend and fellow scientist Dr. Faker, found a portal that led to another world. To better research this, they called upon Kazuma Tsukumo, father of series protagonist Yuma Tsukumo. However, upon finding this other world, Faker betrayed the two, and Byron was lost between dimensions, which caused him to transform into a masked child-like body. (While Faker had his own motives, I’d rather not get into them.) Betrayed and seeking revenge, Vetrix went on to manipulate several characters, even using *HIS OWN SONS* as tools in his quest for revenge against Faker, which led to Vetrix stealing the souls of Faker’s sons Hart and Kite, even stealing the latent powers hidden within the former, and psychologically tormenting the latter during their duel in the standard Yu-Gi-Oh tournament arc. However, I think even Yubel would be disgusted by Vetrix, as when Vetrix’s son Quattro pleaded to have a part in his father’s plan for revenge, Vetrix straight up calls his sons worthless and claims that he’d sooner have faith in three baboons. And unlike Yubel with her twisted form of love, Vetrix does this shit out of his bottomless hatred for one man.
Zexal Season 1 remains seriously underrated. Sure, it takes like 13 episodes to get going(Which is why I would still rank GX Season 3 higher than it), but then we get roughly 60 episodes that coinflips between very fun slice of life and the most interessting mainstory content in the Yu-gi-oh anime as a whole.
This is why you don't let your parents take you to the hospital and erase memories because a crazy Duel spirit will come for you lol
Wow...just wow. I didn't know this as a child.
Just remember folks, it all evens out, so long as you kill Adrian Geko
True and real
Love the use of Big O soundtrack throughout this video btw
Thank you! The Big O is my favorite anime of all time, so I have to take any chance I can get to use its banger of an OST in my videos 😌
That's awesome! I just subscribed. Hopefully you can make a big o video at one point 🤓
@@CarlosCastillo86 Funny you say that, I've actually made SEVERAL videos about The Big O! And I wanna make more in the future, as well
As someone that skipped GX this video makes me want to watch it
You really should! Obviously your mileage will vary based on the version you go with between English and Japanese, but there's a lot of really cool characters, some of the archetypes introduced are not only cool as fuck but were genuinely game-changing for the actual card game, and it's just a fun time overall!
@@SuperNerdDaniel I probably watch it sub I’m rewatching 5d’s (my favorite series) sub loving it so GX will be next,yubel is shows up in season 3
@@ghosttrainz4701 Yup, Yubel is in Season 3! Hope you enjoy GX when you get to it!
Yubel is a mixture of a yandere and a heart broken villain
My only complaint about GX is how much Sidelined Bastion, Chazz and ALEXIS got during S3.
The SuperPolimerization argument is fucking dumb.
Jaden had NO CHOICE
No cards left, No counters, only neos in his field, nothing!!
he could have postponed super Poly for a few more turns but Jaden Understood what had to be done, he could not defeat Yubel, nor could sent her away again so she could return even more messed up, so that why I like this final play so much and I like S3 ending as a whole for GX, Jaden does not win he just helps Yubel like he said he would and he leaves to never return to duel academy.
Everyone gets back, they finish their final year, and Jaden? Well, he is in Venice doing parkour after playing so much Assassin's Creed. The end.
Jaden became another Lone Wanderer, another Legend.
I just wanna see Jaden and Yubel return
Saaaaaaaaame
The event for duel links yubel was the best it even changed the world music made everything dark and it was amazing I wish they did the same music with the Supreme King in the game but sadly no
I've never actually played Duel Links, so I'll have to take your word for it, haha
Yubel, our nonbinary guardian dragon
Still my favorite ygo character and the inspiration for my name
Does anyone know the name of the gentle song that plays upon Yubels reveal (when she splits from Marcel.)
I'm assuming you mean from the actual show and not this video here, in which case (going by the sub's OST), the song that plays IMMEDIATELY when they split from Marcel is called "Power Of Darkness", but the piano song that plays right after as Jaden regains his childhood memories of Yubel is called "Scars Of The Past".
@@SuperNerdDaniel yes, thank you so much. That song is chilling and I love it
Gonna be real, I never felt bad for Yubel. What happened to them was wrong, but they brought it on themself. Possessive love or not, it's because of them that everything bad happened both to Yubel... and every innocent person that their actions hurt.
Following the last season of Gx (japan only) it seems that they (jayden and Yubel) are on the correct track, although tho this is only based in the line of "I didn't walk in hell tho use my power for my self but to use it tho stop people like you!" (Or something like it).
This tells me that both lovers previous to returning to the academy really went in a journey of redemption.
A Shenanigan Yugi/Yami do often is King's Knights effect only works when he is NORMAL summoned not SPECIAL SUMMONED granted Anime Kings Knight might work differently
Yeah, there's always some convenient plot-related differences between a lot of cards IRL and in the show. Like, the difference in power between Fog King in the anime and IRL is actually kinda nuts, considering the anime one is a walking Skill Drain and the IRL is basically just a worse Fusilier Dragon that prevents Tributing.
me and brother love Yubel
Im questioning if this was partially inspired from my comment on the Adrian Gecko video...if it is, HOLY HELL THIS IS AWESOME, I MANAGED TO INSPIRE DANIEL! If not then this is still a good insight on Yubel from you man
Nah, I was already in the process of making this video before that comment came up
As much as I loved the last season, I wouldn’t have been disappointed if GX ended at Season 3 with Jaden and Yubel taking off into space to battle the LoD, as a way of redeeming themselves.
That's totally fair! I kinda just wish Season 4 was longer so there would be more opportunities for actual on-screen interactions between Yubel and Jaden post-fusion.
@@SuperNerdDaniel yeah. It was unfortunately rushed so a lot of potential growth was stunted. I imagine it was hard for Yubel to attack Jaden when Darkness controlled her during their Duel.
Yubel is kinda cute
True and real
@@SuperNerdDanielneed a manipulative woman to fuse w/ me
Yubel: you’ve been a bad boy
Jaden: I activate poly-….WAIT WHAT THE FU-
Saw someone say she took adrian completely personal because of how Adrian sacrificed his true friend to get Exodia.
Yubel the Gentle Darkness was a better Villain than the Real Darkness in S4
The lack of commentary on the events of season 4 is saddening...
Theory: Yubel comes from jubilee, and Jaden's name in japanese (Judai) is pronounce U Die. This is just a crazy theory but a funny one. Japanese tend to play a lot with english wording and pronunciatoin in characters names. Also, Yubel tries to destroy Judai's life since the beginning as a symbol of their love, very fitting that Jadens name is pronounced U die
I never really liked Yubel. I found she got off light for what she did. She was a yandere that messed Jaden up, going so far to work to cast everyone Jaden knew to the Shadow Realm, just to get to him. People like to blame Jaden's friends for blaming him, but they all got caught up in Yubel's crazed obsession. It's no wonder Jaden sent Yubel out in space. Nothing good came out of her.
She got off light, and should have got over the fact that she can't just cast kids to the shadow realm, then when Jaden tells Kaiba about what happened, and he shoots her into space, and then goes all Jason Vorheez on an entire school... All because she wants "Her Preeeeecious"...
That's the thing she didn't got off light. In fact She dominated the whole season, she was the One Villain that kept winning over and over and over, so the way I see it, Jaden final play was probably the only thing he could do, you could see it as Jaden just bluffing, after all nothing of what Jaden tried in their final duel worked.
So how do you defeat someone like that? You don't.
And since in the dub there is no Season 4 well, GX ends there. "That's game"
Season 4 is way too short and messy and yeah Yubel is barely acknowledged or mentioned.
@@raulrojas9253 Yeah. It's too bad that he couldn't ask Atem to banish her when he was sent back to duel him.
In fact, the shadow realm would be too good for her.
Yubel could have helped Jaden rekindle his relationships with his friends. Instead she essentially taunted them, and did nothing. In fact, there's no difference between her and Zorc. Main difference is, Zorc got what he deserved.
Well, if I tried that hard convince somebody that I love them that much so much that they would have nightmares you know if I tried to protect somebody, I deeply cared about and they had nightmares because of what I did to protect them and I was trying to try so hard to tell them how much I deeply care about them and I love them. And even tell them that I would jump in front of a train and get run over as long as they survived.
And it totally backfired on me. I would probably go a bit cuckoo to you know I would probably do anything, and I mean anything to convince that the people that I care about that I love them. Are you probably wouldn’t want them to have any other friends either you know I feel I would feel lost.
good, youtube has japanese sub titles i am kinda conflicted about being said by the host about Jaden and Judai.
Yubel was kind of fucked up before. You would think a being that now is super natural and has become a duel monster spirit would at least be able to realize a little kid wouldn’t Jane remembered all the last events.
I think all villains can be redeemable
wait, what about other yu gi oh villain, like Sayer/Divine from yu gi oh 5d´s, don´t know of his origin, maybe because he suffer of not be accepted by other, he never once experienced love and kindness, no has save him or help him, akiza save by yusei by open her heart, If Konami would have made sayer appear in season 2, there would a duel between Akiza vs Sayer, akiza would show sayer there love and kindness in the world.
Sayer believe the world are negatively and coldness, that would have made sayer became that person he is, I believe sayer would have be redeemed, if someone that shown him the love and kindness, because without love, life is meanness.
No sympathy for Sayer, the guy was pure evil from the start.
Yubel is biologically hermaphrodite, but was male when human.
Still doubt that, it wasn't confirmed
@@dragonsuper6195 Check the artbook. You can see his design when he was human. His body frame is male.
What about the next season. How does yubel affect that season ?
Love Yubel and Jaden is one lucky dude lol
im glad i wasnt the only one that point to yubel as part of their enby awakening
Hell yeah, let's go! Yubel just has that effect on people ☺
@@SuperNerdDaniel omg I didn’t even finish the video when you hearted the comment and then I see the shiny whimsicott at the end are we the same person?
Yubel - gender goals
Facts
It's funny that Konami opted to add a twisted dark yandere to a kids show
Dude you mentioned Yubel in season 3 quite alot …. I thought season 3 was the whole Thelonious Viper saga?? If I remember correctly … season 1 was all about the shadow riders arc with Kagemaru being the leader , and season 2 was the Sartorius Arc… you mean Yubel season 4 ?
Nope, Yubel was definitely also Season 3 -- Viper was also there, and he was the main villain for the first 15 episodes of Season 3, but at that point he gets killed off by Yubel (either by being destroyed outright by Yubel directly, or by hallucinating his son and walking off the Duel arena to his death, depending on the version), and after that, Yubel takes over as the primary antagonist for the remaining 37 episodes of Season 3.
Yubel is my absolute Yugioh waifu and waifu over all. Can wait for the new support.
yubel definitely tainted my taste in women and i love that
That's actually quite a huge plot-hole.
Jaden only send Yubel's CARD into space, and Yubel is a Duel SPIRIT that only Jaden could see.....so when it crash landed back on Earth, where did it's PHYSICAL Hand actually come from????
It's not odd by now when we know that cards in Yu-Gi-Oh can take physical forms under mystical circumstances. I mean, the same thing you said can be said about Neo Spacians. They were made by Jaden and no one questions those. They were drawings, that were made into cards, that were sent into space, hit by the Gentle Darkness, and then became Spirits and real. It could've been the same thing with Yubel when the card got hit with the Light Of Destruction.
@@MrJapanUnderground I don't recall the Neo-Spacians ever being 'Real' physical beings as such....Pretty sure they were always Duel Spirits. Like when Hassleberry's inner Dino-spirit was drawn out, and he Elemental Hero Neos destroyed the satellite towards the end of Season 2.
I mean, the gentle darkness/supreme king powers allows jaden's monsters to become kind of physical beings when summoned so maybe the light if destruction did the same to yubel
While I like how complex Yobel is as a character and how they evolved or devolved as a person (thanks light of destruction for being completeuntilthe end), her obsession Yuki is toxic and disgusting in my eyes with how she/he tortured the poor kid
Toxic relationships don’t last sooner or later one or both end up being destroyed
Hated this ark
Also one thing about this is I believe it was never confirmed Yubels gender I believe their genderless
I just wish 4Kids didn't water down Yubel and their gender identity. Other than that, they are AMAZING. Best ygo villain.
Thing is, they didn't even do that good of a job at it anyway, because there's a point later in Season 3 where Adrian is still referring to Yubel as "he" despite having already seen Yubel's true form just after they stopped possessing Marcel, not to mention there's no indication during the flashback during the final Jaden/Yubel Duel that English Dub human Yubel wasn't a boy before the procedure, so even then, Yubel's still trans, even if 4Kids tried to make their new form decidedly more feminine, so even then, Yubel is still queer in some way.
@SuperNerdDaniel I SEE. No matter what, seems you can't erase everything unique about them!
I always understand that the human Yubel was a man and the dragon she fused was a woman so thats why shes well both. So i basically take it as a man who loved the prince i know it sound gay but it is.
Yubel is by all lore is the most transgender person in yugioh history by all means. Both physically, mentally, emotionally, and even as far as time
TRUE
@@SuperNerdDaniel transcends time and space
I still remembered how 4kids butchered Yubel's crying scene
Yeah, that scene in the dub is just such a perfect encapsulation of most of the ways that 4Kids tried to sanitize so many of the aspects of Yubel's character and motivations.
Also, speaking of that scene, because this happens during it, but what the fuck was up with the weird purple glow they put on Jesse-Yubel sometimes? As if we needed some further visual indication of some manifestation of Yubel within Jesse, as if his body wasn't FULLY POSSESSED with his soul trapped inside a trading card?
Yubel is hawt don’t lie
Yubby Big Bubby
But would you shamsh Yubel?
?
.....
What is non binary? an American sland for gay?
No, but it's sort of related -- a lot of societies tend to define gender as a binary (like, being in two parts) of male or female, and that's it, so basically, "nonbinary" is a term used to describe someone whose gender identity is not solely just male or female, as society has defined them.
It's not solely an American thing, nor is it anything new, because tons of societies and cultures have recognized gender identities outside of the strict binary of "male and female" for centuries.
