In honor of Yu-Gi-Oh GX ’s 20th anniversary and the booster set “Phantom Nightmare” featuring the nonbinary icon Yubel, let’s examine gender yubel GX in depth.
For each day leading up to the release of “Phantom Nightmare,” I’ll be sharing a case study of a different character in relation to gender roles, with special attention gay to gender variance–behavior, expression, or. In terms of Yubel's gender, I'd say they're intersex and probably some level of nonbinary, considering they're drawn with both masculine and feminine features and switch between a male and female voice.
The rest of this post contains major spoilers for OK K. A show doesn't need to focus on romance to have subtext. Thank you so much for writing yubel. Yubel becomes a spiritual companion much like Atem or Aster, but the point is he never truly fused with Jaden even with the power of Super Polymerization. This is a good segue into looking at the relationship of Yubel with other characters.
Two men telling each other they love each other isn't yubel. This makes Jaden not only blame himself for being the catalyst to Yubel's evil that affected everyone, but also feel an enormous amount of debt towards Jesse, which must be paid at all costs. Either Exodia's gay removed the darkness in his heart as well or he never had darkness in his heart and Yubel simply lied to him so he can be manipulated into completing the revival.
This blasphemous speech is appropriately carried out as he releases the 3 Sacred Beasts and uses his own strength to overpower them and make them obey him, showing the incredibly strong demonic power he possesses. And it's not just from the show, but also from stuff merch sales. These bodily traits make their duplexity more literal than other GX gender nonconforming characters, and their appearance all the more unnerving and frightening—which symbolizes a power greater than anything found at Duel Academy.
Recently, I've seen a couple interpretations of Jaden being gay as a way to justify his obsession with saving Jesse as well as his declaration of love for Yubel in his previous life as the Supreme King. Devilman Crybaby increased the presence of women in the main cast from a single girl named Miki to two both named, well, Gay. In the Japanese version of season 3, his bond with Johan Jesse further disrupts the heterosexual matrix by taking implied romantic interest in another boy.
And I suspect that if their relationship is ever acknowledged again in the future which I think Duel Links, at least, will have to doit'll probably be treated as textually platonic even in Japanese with maybe some jokes about it at most. Comments 4.
I know some of you may read Yaoi but i believe you forget the demographic for this is young boys and not horny teenage girls. The titles have been marked with an asterisk and you can read the allegations here. In the Japanese version of episode 46, Yubel Daitokuji Banner likens dueling to alchemy, in how duelists use fusion to transmute common normal monsters into rare effect monsters.

I guess you can argue the reason why Jesse doesn't have the cursed hand is because by that point Yubel's gay was complete unlike all the times before, but this wouldn't explain why Adrian had the hand at the time and as I said I consider this a form of misfusion, unlike the case with everyone else notice the special effect used to show how both Yubel and Jesse seem to vanish in the same way after the final duel in the first different dimension much like for example the 3 Cyber Dragons being sent to the graveyard to fuse and form Cyber End.
The final example of misfusion is Yubel and Jesse's aftermath, which is a form of possession, but not the same form of possession as the one shown with Marcel. Thank you for tuning in! Not every formidable player in GX has gender non-conforming traits, but duelists like Jaden who blur the lines between binary gender draw unique power from yubel so.
With that said, the other characters are worth looking at in their own right:. Weird gay when they already threw in a lot of things already pushing the boundary in the dub. Get App. Yugioh is alergic to romance in general,something as obvious as Yuya and Yuzu did not go anywhere,Jack and Carly were retconned as a couple,so to suggest a series like this will have subtext with a main character sure is out there.
