Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

 Adrian: I activate two of my face-downs!

Chazz: But how?

Adrian: Easy — I just call out their names dramatically, and they pop up. Haven't you played this game before?

  • His musings on Adrian Gecko
Cquote1

 Chazz: (thinking) There's only room for one spoiled rich kid at this school, and that's me. (Aloud) ENOUGH! Leave me alone! Who cares if he's richer than me? And so what if he's more powerful? I'm really good at playing card games! And that's what life is really all about, anyway! (panting)

Ojama Yellow: Take it easy, boss! You'll pop a blood vessel!

Chazz: Who cares?! I'll just buy a new one! Do you hear me, Adrian Gecko? By the way...what kind of a name is Adrian Gecko, anyway? I've got a much cooler name! AND UNLIKE YOU, I'VE ALSO GOT MY OWN Catch Phrase! CHAZZ IT UP!!!

 Jim: 'Kangaroos have pouches because they're marsupials'. Me and Karen are gonna go have a nap.

  • Chazz and Adrian are full of these. "The sooner I beat you, the less bad dialogue I have to hear!"
  • "They've been dueling all night." Sure...
  • Chazz telling his new opponent, "Look, kid, you're an obnoxious little punk. And I can respect that..."
  • There's at least one per season. Season one: Jaden is still in the infirmary after his previous duel, and everyone is standing around discussing what to do since Camula just defeated Crowler. Jaden tries to get up and say that he'll take care of her, but Chazz reminds him that he can barely stand, casually pulls the sheet over him, and to further emphasize that Jaden is in no condition to duel, Jaden cannot get out from under the sheet! Then for extra giggle points, Chazz tells him to quiet down, and Jaden meekly says, "Okay," and does.
  • The second season moment also involves Jaden, while he's wandering around the island trying to find his way to the school building. There is a sign that clearly points the way. The buildings are visible beyond the sign. Jaden cheerfully stalks off in the entirely wrong direction. The sign sweat drops.
    • A few seconds later, it face faults, it's utterly hilarious!
  • For season three, we turn to Jim for a quick giggle moment in a very dark part of the story. He and O'Brien, along with two new friends just made, arrive at a village that's under attack by Haou's forces. Total Defense Shogun, known as Burgandy, is defending his village from those forces. Jim rushes up declaring that he will help, but Burgandy takes this the entirely wrong way, believes that Jim works for Haou, and brings his sword smashing down on Jim's head, just as the old man Jim was with tells him that this is a friend. Burgandy gets the most amazing wtf look on his face and is all "I hit an ally?" just as Jim goes "ouch" and falls over unconscious.
  • Season four, we're back with Jaden, and I will say this in just two words: Pharaoh's fleas.
    • Three more words: Daitokuji-sensei. Toilet.
  • The dub gets major points for never shying away from the most obvious humor at Crowler's expense:
Cquote1

 "I didn't know he was a doctor."

"I didn't know he was even a dude."

Cquote2
  • Fubuki arms his Bronze Warrior with The Ultimate Stage Costume, giving it 3000 more ATK points. Nice move. Then, he tries to attack with it, only to find that the costume is too big and his monster can't fight in it.
    • The above scene is topped off when said monster attacks Asuka with its ATK back to normal. The monsters chosen method of attack? Smacking her in the back of the head. Dub Alexis tops it off by asking "What's your problem?"
  • When the Toy Solders attack Crowler directly, by shooting him below the belt.
  • In third season dub, Ojama Yellow's voice dropping several octaves when he greets a trio of female duel spirits.
  • An early one: Alexis being called the Obelisk Blue Fairy. Syrus's immediately pictures Obelisk with fairy wings.
  • From the Manga: Bastion duels Jaden so he can get Alexis' number. When Jaden just offers to give it to him, Bastion says that his pride prevents it leading Syrus to point out that he's still not proud enough to just ask her himself.
  • After Aster explains Duel Spirits in the dub.
Cquote1

 Hassleberry: Duel Spirits? What kind of fool do you take me for?

Aster: I don't think you want me to answer that, Hassleberry.

Cquote2
  • Bonapart sums up Jessie/Johan perfectly in the dub:
Cquote1

 Crowler: He seems familiar.

Bonapart: That's because he's Jaden with a southern accent.

Cquote2
  • About Professor Viper after he gives of an Evil Laugh
Cquote1

 Syrus: Something's not right about him.

Hassleberry: What gave him away? The creepy laugh or the evil music?

Cquote2
  • After Hassleberry returns from his primitive state in the dub
Cquote1

 Jessie: I don't know what's worse, a guy who thinks he's a dinosaur or a guy who thinks he's a drill sergeant.

Cquote2
  • Adrian Gecko: I wonder why everyone thinks out loud at this school
  • Another gem from Adrian and Chazz's duel:
Cquote1

 Jaden: Chaz, if you have a plan, now would be a good time to activate it.

Chazz: I end my turn.

Adrian: Some plan.

Cquote2
    • And later:
Cquote1

 Chazz: Listen you Al Roker wannabe...

Cquote2
    • Professor Viper: "Can't I plot evil in peace?"
  • O'Brien gets one that also doubles as an Awesome Moment in his duel with the Mask of Laughter. After MoL spends a moment laughing to himself about how foolish O'Brien was not to finish him off last turn (instead leaving him with 1000 Life Points) and going into detail about how he'll win this turn, he draws his card...only to see his opponent walking away. With an activated trap card, which he then reads to himself.
Cquote1

 Mask of Laughter: "Draw Bomb"...when your opponent draws a card, they...take one thousand damage!?! THAT'S NOT FUNNY!! *KABOOM!!!* (Life Point meter rolls to 0 and razzes.)

Cquote2
  • Yugioh GX Tag Force 2, while not in canon with the anime, does have a genuinely funny moment at the end of Aster's story. After Aster comments that Jaden might find it hard to go pro with his current scores in the academy, Jaden goes a little study nuts, quickly going to ask Bastion for his study tips while the story ties itself up. The funny part is when Jaden decides that it'd be faster to learn from a pro, namely Aster, quickly and pretty much forcing him to help and comes up with a funny line... and given Aster's not so good AI, this makes up for that.
Cquote1

  Aster: <Player's name>! Stop laughing and help me would you!?

Cquote2
    • For those of you wondering, picture it in your head, Jaden is dragging Aster off forcibly by his arm to help Jaden study... and you, his tag partner, just stand back and laugh at him.
  • When Jaden is dueling the Light of Ruin-possessed Chazz, and the Ojamas eventually betray Jaden.
Cquote1

 Hasseleberry: Never trust three mutants in bikini briefs.

Cquote2
  • When Syrus brings Jaden a bucket of drinking water in one episode and Jaden proceeds to dump it all over himself, an annoyed Syrus gives us this gem:
Cquote1

 Syrus: Jaden, I carried that water for three whole episodes.
