Sexist writing in Yu-Gi-Oh!!: Yoshida Shin and Zappa Go
I tweeted about this on my twitter, but decided to make post on tumblr, as the fandom might be still alive here, I donāt really know. Long post ahead, TLDR at the end.
By now almost everyone in the western YGO fandom must know who Yoshida Shin is. He is the man who has been working as YGO screenwriter since DM, and wrote storylines for both Zexal and Arc-Vās manga versions. The western fandom has declared him as sexist, blaming him on poor female writing in the series as well as fanservice of the female characters.
However, in truth, thatās justĀ exaggerated conclusion made by angry YGO Arc-V fans on tumblr who hated YGO Zexal and wanted to blame someone for their reasoning of not liking it. In Japanese fandom, only problems there is about Yoshida, is about him giving some good characterizations, but never giving them deeper continuation or conclusion. There is no talk about him being sexist or worse at writing women than other writers in YGO. And even in Japan, they call out about problematic subjects in anime, as we can see when there was an uproar of childrenās idol anime Pripara, which portrayed in one of itās ending a middle-schooler character in lingerie as in reference for Marilyn Monroe.
A famous quote people base their idea of Yoshida being sexist on is how he said in YGO Zexalās manga, that his series donāt have a lot of women. Many people see this as that he hates women and female characters, when in truth what he is saying in that context is, that he tends to often focus on male characters more than female characters and that he should and works to change that and include more female characters to his own writing.Ā
Even in the manga versions of Zexal and Arc-V, itās hard to tell which decisions in comic are made by Yoshida. He wrote the overall storyline of the manga, but itās as big possibility it was manga artistās own decision or someone elseās working with the manga, to add fanservicey, ship-teasing moments between Yuuya, his brothers and Yuzu, who turned out to be their mother at the end. Especially the famous groping scene is something so tiny and irrelevant to the plot, I have hard time believing itād been worthy to be written by storywriter. Even fandom arguing about age difference between Yuushou and Yuzu is hard to say. Personally, I donāt think younger Yuushou looks older than maybe 15-16, in which him developing relationship with Yuzu who is 14 wouldnāt be problematic. EDIT:Ā Looking at few writings by Miyoshi, the mangaka, has done in the manga versions of Zexal and Arc-V... He literally talks about female charactersā chest sizes and seems to me that he is behind of the fanservice and female characters being sexualized.
Despite working a lot on Zexal as itās composer, which some people claim has worst female writing in YGO, Yoshida didnāt write every episode of Zexal, he only made scripts for around 40 of them. You can check ANN which episodes he worked on here.
Is Yoshida Shin sexist? I canāt say with absolute certainty if he is or isnāt, but after seeing how he barely has part in writing female characters in YGO series, I donāt think he is more sexist or misogynistic than any other writers in YGO, shounen series usually just tend to have poor writing/treatment of female characters. He seems to be quite your average writer in shounen anime, and if you think heās sexist, you probably should think so is every shounen writer.
However, taking a look in some episodes of Zexal that had the most uncanny, gross and fanservicey moments, a certain manās name pops up as a writer; Zappa Gou. This man has written episodes that include many series people complain and take as example of Zexal having gross and sexist fanservice, such as Kotoriās shower scene in episode 83 and in my personal opinions, episodes that had Rio acting like character from s*scon inc*st anime. Once again, Yoshida had nothing to do with these episodesā writing, so putting blame on him for the fanservice or sexist undertones is unjustified.
If we take a look at Zappa Gouās work in screenplay and composition, you can find a lot of... questionable series. He has written in a lot of fanservice, ecchi and hentai series, which I think explains the uncomfortable sexualized fanservice, or at least raises a question or two. Besides these animes and Zexal, he has also worked on Yu-Gi-Oh!! Arc-Vās first season as writer on 10 episodes. To be more exact, the same man who wrote several fanservicey, sexual ecchi animes and that one scene of Kotoriās towel slipping, wrote most of Arc-Vās first seasonās episodes, that revolved around its female characters. This includes both Yuzu vs. Masumi duels as well as Yuuya vs. Mieru duel. So, if you think Zappa Gou is sexist and creepy hentai writer, note he also wrote many episodes about Arc-Vās female characters, that I personally think explain why Yuzu often acts like basic tsundere love interest from fanservice series, why Masumi had crush on her adult teacher and the whole Yuuya seeing Mieruās upskirt.
Iāve seen people praising Arc-V a lot, especially the same people who talk down on Zexal and claim it be The Most Sexist YGO Season Ever. People talk like Yuzu has top-tier female character writing, when in my own opinion she as well as entirety of Arc-V has just as average writing on the girls department as usual. Sure, Arc-V had a lot of female duelists, but barely any of them had some deeper role or meaning in the overall story. Many characters were written off or sidelined as the series progressed (Ayu, Masumi, Mieru, Olga, Tyler sisters, Sayaka) had only short time on screen (Tylers, Sayaka, Rin & Ruri), or worked basically as Deus Exmachina plot tools (Rey & Bracelet girls). Not to mention the girls never got to won against any impressive characters in serious duels, like in any previous YGO season before. And I donāt even want to begin how Yuzu and Serena got trashed after Synchro arc, the whole damsel in distress and brainwash tropes and so on. The fact people act like Arc-Vās writing on its female cast is higher than in your average YGO are either in denial or blinded by their bias.
I guess my point in conclusion is: Yoshida Shin isnāt more sexist than any other writer in YGO anime and Zappa Gou, who has previously written several ecchi anime, worked in many gross Zexal scenes as well as a lot of episodes revolving around Yuzu, Masumi and Mieru in Arc-V. So think about who is sexist writer in YGO
By the way, I in no way hate Arc-V or itās characters. It personally has my favorite cast of characters after Zexal and I really liked the premise of the series. But what it comes to Arc-Vās plot and writing in both story and characters, I canāt in any way deny it was awful. It had strong beginning in first season, but soon in second season, it went downhill very fast with poor pacing, horrible writing decisions and repeated character arcs - not to mention the finale is the most horrible YGO finale and basically destroys not only Kurosakiās but also both Yuuya, Yuzuās and rest of their counterpartsā character arcs completely. You can like series and yet criticize and complain about its writing, you can accept its flaws and still enjoy it. Man, Yuuya is like my 2nd fave YGO protag, yet I absolutely hate his writing. Wonāt stop me liking his character premise though.
What I do hate is people who ignore facts for their own bias, deny clear flaws and act elitist, as if their biased opinions were only truth. Itās important to accept that things arenāt perfect. You can enjoy series, even if they have bad aspects.
TLDR: Yoshida Shin isnāt in more fault than any of the other YGO writers in the seriesā bad female character writing. He has admitted he more often focuses on men rather than women and wants to work to change that. Female character writing and treatment is usually poor in shounen series like YGO. However, Zappa Go, man who wrote some very uncanny fanservice episodes and poor female characterization in Zexal, also wrote all ofĀ Arc-Vās first seasonās episodes about its female characters and also has been writer in several ecchi/hentai series.
PSA for Buddyfight fandom
So around a week ago, some adults of Buddyfight fandom attacked on a literal minor on this fandom over writing a fanfiction about their OTP. A lot of misinformation was spread over the fandom, mostly on twitter (and likely discord but I donāt use it so I donāt know the details). What I know is that some of the adults (20 years+) in this fandom attacked on a minor going by name Chazu and accused him of being predator for writing CP, which he didnāt (it was based on Ace timeline in which characters were an adults) and even apologized for. Not only Chazu is a minor himself (14 years old), heās also trans, so like. Good going yāall. You chased a LGBT minor off internet and scared him for fake accusations that hurt him very badly, even after he felt comfortable enough to come back and most of the drama calmed down.
I seriously hope people involved in this drama assumed Chazu being an adult, because bunch of adults attacking on a person they know is a minor is seriously creepy and toxic. While understandably CP is a bad thing, especially in fandom of series meant for kids, accusing a literal child for something like that and even going as far as treating them like predator is disgusting, and coming from bunch of adults, absolutely stupid.
As adults, we older people in this fandom should know better than to jump into conclusions and attack blindly on people. Children in fandom exist and they might do things that would be bad for us adults to do, but itās fine as theyāre still children and growing up. This might be an unpopular opinion of mine, but I donāt see much wrong in minors writing or drawing nsfw about characters who are close to their own age. Some of them might use it to explore and express themselves, especially the LGBT children. As long as itās nothing harmful, I think itās fine.
I for one can say I used to say and do a lot of harmful and gross things as minor that I regret doing now that Iām an adult. But back then, I was a child (and well, fandoms were different when I was kid, it was wild back in 2009) and as I grew older, I saw the harm on things I did and grew to better person. We as adults, shouldnāt jump into out own conclusions and blindly attack on everyone we see doing something we donāt approve of. First of all, we need to remember that there are children in the fandom and for them, I think itās fine to do anything as long as theyāre not harming anyone else in the process or sharing some harmful information (which again, wasnāt case in this one). And if we see children doing something that could be harmful (for example, sharing harmful stereotypes or glorifying abusive things), we, as adults, should be mature and polite over it, explain them gently what theyāre doing wrong and help them to understand.
As adults, we should know better than attack on people, especially if we donāt know their age for certain. You can always block someone if they make you uncomfortable. And while itās good to keep fandoms safe for children, we need to remember that children can produce something in fandom too and attacking on them for things they do isnāt helpful for them in any way. In worst cases like this, it can seriously harm the minor and make them extremely anxious, to the point they run off the internet over some adultās untrue assumptions. So please, next time you see something that might or might not be harmful, think before you jump into conclusions, make sure the person in question is the age you assume them to be and if theyāre children, treat them gently and try to educate them kindly rather than blame them aggressively. A bunch of angry adults calling children predator can be just as harming for kids than nasty adults being nasty.
Letās try to think like an adults and keep this fandom enjoyable and safe for everyone. Letās hope anything like this wonāt happen again!
TLDR; A minor got accused by being predator/writing CP by bunch of adults in the fandom, making them extremely scared and chasing them off the internet. Letās remember kids are still growing up and can do mistakes and itās fine, letās not blame them but educate them if they do something harmful. Always check opās age to avoid accidentally scaring off a kid for no reason.
Also sorry, English isnāt my first language so I might make mistakes. Also this might not be so well written and very rambly, but this subject made me really annoyed as an adult myself.
Two new character added to Buddyfight Aceās JP website! Darkness Dragon World user Meiru Amagasa and his Buddy Extermination Demon Dragon, Belial and Legend World user, Ace of Legend, AlexandreĀ āAlecā Ankh with his Buddies Flame Deity, Magma Horus and Ice Deity, Freeze Horus!
So Bushiroad tweeted with preview of their this months magazine and there was some info about the upcoming Ace vs. King booster set.
The new legend user who usesĀ āDouble Buddyā, Legend Dragon Dragods and is one of the new main characters and Yuugaās apparentĀ āarch-rivalā, is fully namedĀ ć¢ć¬ćÆćµć³ćć«ć»ć¢ć³ćÆ, Alexander/Alexandre Ankh. Sooo... Heās not āAlecā but āAlexā, I guess?
The other new character, introduced now, uses new Darkness Dragon World attributeĀ āDemon Dragonā. His name isĀ éØåć”ć¤ć«, Meiru... Amekasa? His first name could be Mail/Meil too, and his surname has various ways to read it (Urakasa, Amagasa, etc).Ā éØå literally meansĀ āumbrellaā which is his attributeās weapon. Just amazing, almost as good asĀ āthe shining number one starā that is literally Hikaruās name.
Oh, and while Kei doesnāt debut in this set (please be Magic World user and not another Star Dragon World....), his full name isĀ ē„宮寺ć±ć¤, Kei Jinguuji.
Roboppy is a trans icon and I love them with all my heart!

Do you do commissions?
Iām sorry but currently I am too busy to take commissions. Iāll definitely inform if/when I open them, likely on my twitter, tumblr and dA even though Iām not that active on other than twitter. (I have pics I should post on here too I guess, hahaā¦)
I have never made commissions before so itād be a new thing for me, but Iāve considered it a lot and I want to be able to do them when Iām not as busy with other things in my life as Iām right now. I want to be able to focus on making commissions to others without having to worry about other things so I get to finish them faster without annoying anyone for taking so long.
Do we know anything new about alec or kei?
Iām not sure how late I am to answer on this, but Keiās trial deck and booster introducing his cards were released yesterday on new Corocoro. Heās Legend World user and has two Buddies, both themed after Horus who are also Gargods. I assume the reason they use this fire/ice twin dragons idea is because of Horusā eyes, that they reference even in Alecās design, were thought to be sun and moon in ancient Egypt.
Other than that we know he has big rivalry for Yuuga and considers himself as his arch-rival (I hope itās as one-sided as it sounds because thought of Alec being super competitive towards Yuuga while Yuuga is chill and thinks of him as friend sounds funny to me).
What comes to Kei, we still donāt know the world he uses yet. My guess is either Star Dragon World or Magic World (I hope itās Magic because itās one of the most sidelined worlds & I just want something else than sidekicks using dragon worlds yet again as Ancient World is basically yet another dragon world). The Alec vs. Yuuga booster back (currently) is confirmed to have cards from Dragon World, Legend World and Darkness Dragon World as well as Dual Cards, but we canāt confirm that DDW is Keiās world. Many people did assume Kei uses DDW even before the confirmation. Personally I think itād be weird theyād introduce one of the main characters as side in a booster that focuses on showdown between other of the two main characters. But weāll see when more card leaks appear.
His Buddy is shown in shadows in the manga special and (itās SD form?) in end of volume 2 as it teases with the new season.
Other than that, Kei seems to be a student council president. My Japanese mutual who has provided me with news sometimes said heās Aibou Academyās student council president, but I guess it could mean heās also student council president of the new school that end of Hikaruās short story teased. Hikaru got letter from Kei, in which he got invited to new school called World Buddy Academia, that gathers strong Buddyfighters around the world. Hikaru didnāt seem to know Keiās name though, so it makes me question if Kei is from Aibou Academy, as heās Yuugaās senpai, indicating heās 13-15 and Hikaru is 15, 3rd grader at the middle school department.
Oh and Keiās surname is Jinguuji, which means Buddhist temple at Shinto shrines. And he seemingly has clock/time motif (if the clock on him didnāt make it obvious, he also talks howĀ ātheir time shall continueā).
Oh and since Alecās Buddies are Gargods, I assume Keiās Buddy also will be Gargod and it could be theyāre other Deities Garga fought with against Destroyer in past.
Ah, finally the translation for (true) last episode. thank you so much for your translation and hardwork! I still remember en wikia heartbreak for the last episode (oh noo cancellation) .well, if i didn't get it wrong. isn't the series composer, mr Hiroyuki Kawasaki in twitter confirm that the series indeed continued (and it hinted in jp bushi fest)? I felt the whole 'cancellation' issue mostly miscommunication anyways.
No problem! I had fun translating and really wanted other fans to be able to see it.
Iām not exactly sure about animeās continuation being mentioned yet, but the official eng sources said itād go on indefinite hiatus. It can still come back but I havenāt seen any proper confirmation. After all, it was XEBEC who decided to stop animating the show as Sunrise bought their company.
What we know is that Buddyfight isnāt officially cancelled, just on hiatus. And Yuugaās story continues in manga and likely more short stories Iāll be translating and posting here!
Bushi added character page to their JP website with Yuuga, Gao and new character Hikaruās character infos along with their Buddiesā, so I decided to translate them!
Did subs for Buddyfight Ace episode 47ā²s ending.
They aired 4 recap/card info episodes in Japan after plot finale 43. Nothing really happens in these episodes other than recaps about the seasonās cards/decks and some pointless fun such as counting how many times they ate pizza in the anime. (Also itās 90% reused animation and original clips are... poor.)
However, episode 47 had this somewhat plot-ish ending after the card info stuff, so I decided to make subtitles for it to show other fans. According to JP voice actors of the Ace Trio on twitter, this was indeed final episode, at least for now. No new info about the anime, but manga keeps going. They released special edition of Yuugaās new deck in CoroCoro special last week along with nice comic you can read here!Ā (Might translate it if I feel like it and people want me to, idk if theyāll include it in official published manga volumes.)
Also sorry English isnāt my first language so the translation might be kinda awkward sometimes as my brain tries to process 3 languages at the same time.

Masatoās hair is shaped like tree and Subaru is the brightest star and Bushiroad blessed us with MasaSuba this Xmas. Coincidence? I think not.
