I have a question, can you go further in depth on character in the future? Coming GX seasons have a lot of potential different readiness from Jaden being LGBT to just having a mental breakdown over all the trauma he endured, losing his friend Johan/Jesse being the last straw, and those are just two of the ways you can look at it

Elementary also has a great sense of humor (e.g., Sherlock's process where he smells everything, the clown running through the woods at night), excellently written lines (e.g., the exchange with Marcus where he says he was the most pitiable soul he could ever meet at the depths of his addiction, the scene with Watson where he tells her that maintaining his sobriety is like working very hard just to prevent a faucet from dripping), deep insight into humanity (e.g., Sherlock's criticisms of marriage, analysis of Watson's pursuit of traditional partnership), and excellent research into fascinating topics (e.g., quaggas actually did exist, malbolge is actually a programming language). There are so many layers of value add that the writers add to each episode and they actually do the research. Elementary is definitely a high quality, cerebral production. Far better than any detective series out there that generally caters to people's sense of justice.

Elementary is the best ❤

While I enjoyed GX, I felt like Jaden hogged nearly all the duels. In the first series it felt more balanced between Yugi, Joey and Kaiba. GX however, especially with the shadow riders, Jaden had to duel most of them after his friends lose. So I'm glad to know others felt the same way.

I heard Kazuki Takahashi was helping others while scuba diving he died a hero, rip

1:20:00 This might be a deep cut reference to Jackie Chung from OG Dragonball, who was master Roshi entering the tournament under a false identity to continue to teach his students.

I’m not saying Elementary didn’t do well with the premise but I gave up after the first episode because I couldn’t understand a word Miller was saying. I don’t know why they had him talking into his beard but it made the show unwatchable for me.

The John Cena of anime? I can't see it 🤷🏻

I don't understand the wrestling references but I'm just happy to be here!

I dont know why people bash Elementary, I honestly like it the most out of all the modernized adaptations. The Moriarty twist was actually quite clever, IMO. I like SOME of Sherlock BBC but the writing and plot logic just doesn't make much sense. And honestly, Milller Sherlock feels very based and relatable.

All i know about Bastion is that hes a posh shithead

YU-GI-OH! GX is low key the GOAT of the franchise, it’s a real shame that 4Kids butchered it like it did the series before and after, and never even dubbed season 4.

Lucy was the best Watson IMHO. The chemistry between Johnny Lee and Lucy was top notch

Correct me if im wrong but i belive BBC sherlock does not see John as a dog or labrat a few example for my point series 1 saves John and his date in ep 2 putting himself at risk now that might now sound like much at first but sherlock is a sociopath and if he really did see John as a labrat or dog he would most likely just left or something idk but eny way series 1 again when Moriarty has straped bombes to Johns chest and has a sniper on the bomb so he could basicly have died at eny moment and i dont belive he is as cold as you say tbh he just kinda does not seem to understand social interaction at all witch could have to do with his sociopathy again and or his autism and continueing on my first point sherlock saves John several other times in the series and sherlock does grow a lot as a character but i feel this comment might already be a bit to long now so im just gonna and the comment here….

the “influencer” bit sent me fr 😹

Thank you! I’ve been saying this since the beginning and people acted like I was not high brow enough to get “Sherlock”.

Yes! I loved Elementary. Seeing the gradual growth and emotional complexity of Sherlock was amazing

Elementary is an amazing show and it genuinely brings me such elation to see more people appreciate it

There’s literally only 1 tv show I’ve ever seen thats rated 100% both from the critics and audience for every season it has and it managed it for 7, elementary is clear not just of Sherlock but of any tv show that’s existed

I'm only one series into Elementary and do think overhaul its the better show so far. I'll have to rewatch Sherlock once I finish this to judge fully. A few ticks in the BBC shows box thou, I preferred his apartment in sherlock! I don't know why but it just stood out to me the moment I started the first episode. It seems too non-descript and adds nothing. Whereas in Sherlock it's at the center of the show. I think the reason is related to my second tick to Sherlock, which is the general atmosphere (look and feel) to Sherlock was better. It look and feels like a quirky unique show where as Elementary feels like your watching a standard CSI type show. I also loved the blog in Sherlock, which I believe was a modern take on something from the books (not sure thou haven't read them). And lastly his landlady, I loved the relationship between her and Sherlock. If I remember right she is the only person he seems to care about in Sherlock, where as in Elementary he is overall a better human so has more meaningful relationships with a few people, which might end up being better in the end (just about to start season 2) we'll have to see. I liked this clip but my conclusion is, I think it's probably best to not actually compare them! lol. I know it's obvious and interesting to compare them because they are both based on the same characters and books. But as a piece of art they are so different its like saying what films better, Die Hard or Schindler's List? Put these in order best to worst - The Rolling Stones, the Godfather Part 2, and the Mona Lisa lol Ok maybe I took it too far with that one but you get my point. Oh I forgot to mention, I absolutely hated Moriarty in Sherlock, almost ruined the whole show for me, if he was in it more I wouldn't have watched it. I don't understand why they made him like that, was just dreadful and completely out of place. It reminded me of the brother and sister from the original Resident evil games. The ones that owned the company Umbrella lmao. In fact it reminded me of the voice acting in allot of those old games, like time cop as well. "I'M EVIL AND I'M HERE FOR YOUR DEMISE!!! MWWAHA HA HA HA!! In conclusion I like both shows for completely different reasons! lol Good video thou:)

I know you said that this is, like your last review, a review of the American 4kids version and I assume you've never seen it. If you have the chance I'd absolutely IMPLORE you to check it out especially since the final season was never dubbed in America which means the final step of Jaden/Judais character arc just never happens and the final duel of the series (as well as my favorite) is never seen. I get that the 4kids censorship doesn't bother you but this is a case where not only is it basically a different show here in America but it was never even finished. Trust me, it goes WAY further than Chumlys dad having a sake business instead of a hot sauce one. Also I know you probably didn't know this but it's slowly becoming known that JK Rowling was in fact NEVER transphobic. Checked into it myself and my wife did the same, there's no evidence whatsoever to support that she ever was or is.

There is another modern day Sherlock Holmes adaptation now- a podcast called Sherlock and Co. I have not watched either Elementary or Sherlock, so I can't say as to how it compares to them, but it is really good so far. It is fairly new (the first episode came out in october) and they are planning to adapt every single sherlock holmes story (including the novels at some point). The stories they have done so far have been really well adapted but my favourite part is that their Sherlock canonically has autism and adhd! It's a great podcast and I highly recommend it, there are lots of funny moments to enjoy. There's also a new episode every Tuesday!

Chazz: In fact, forget the duel school and the black jack!! Ahh, screw the whole thing...😂😂

Tbh I think you were even a bit generous awarding Sherlock the Irene Adler point, like she's basically Moriarty you can't really separate the two, if you think Elementary's Moriarty is great then Irene Adler also is. Also Irene's characterization in Sherlock isn't very good in spite of the first impression she makes (which honestly is still very sexually objectifying), it's basically another "lesbian back on the straight and narrow" sorta deal and once it's done she's basically just a woman in love with the protagonist.

Loved this. Only critique is that I would give one additional point to Sherlock for its superior production values and visuals

Into the Spiderverse overrated😧

Rest in peace Toriyama sensei. You will be missed! Thank you for everything!

12:39 i think you are forgetting that Yugi proves he can stand on his own. He beat kaiba, and kaiba was arguably at his peak. Sure, yugi cant overcome manifestations of pure evil. But i think its unfair to hold him to that standard

Hope you did give 5ds a go. Its arguably the best series of them all

THANK YOU!!!! I LOVE ELEMENTARY, AND I SORT OF LIKE SHERLOCK. I LOVED JOAN A LOT!!! Especially when she became a detective herself

I'm gonna make a character stan Pegasus in a show one day lol

Finally someone said it

20:14 thumbs down for unnecessary Roman Reigns bashing! 😂

This is such a great video series I’m glad this can be an occasional thing to look forward to every so often

Loved them both. IMO Elementary is the best iteration of SH.

Uh Abominal Bride was totally canon!

Elrmentary is my second favourite adaptation after the jeremy brett one

This review is such good shit as well. I am currently on my xth rewatch (I've lost count...) This time, I'm focusing on the two lead actors' acting, how they portray the development of their characters and relationship with each other. The nuanced performance is really impressive.

When I watch a novel adaptation series or movie, I want one of two things: complete faithful to the original from casting to plotline (think David Suchet's Hercules Poirot), or creative retelling of the story while keeping the true essence of the original work (Elementary in this case).

Elementary is such a great show

I remember falling in love with Yu-Gi-Oh When I was 9yo back in 4th grade. I loved the entirety of DM era. Even the filler arcs. Except Virtual World... Noah isn't a good villain, I cannot take him nor the Big Five seriously.

I will never understand the logic behind tributeing Ishizus monsters implanted a bomb within Obelisk but said bomb doesn't transfer to Blue Eyes once it was also tribute summoned lol

SPOILER for one episode: I knew elementary was my favorite Sherlock show when a scene of a murder showed Sherlock open a fridge and looking confused, then pays it off by showing that neither of the occupants could've drank milk as one was vegan and the other lactose intolerant leading Sherlock to deduce it had to be something other than milk which lead to the killer being identified. The best part is that the camera didn't focus on the milk at all and while it was front and center so everyone saw it, it didn't draw attention to it in any way

Good grief!

I love both Shows

Excellent review as always! 🎉

i feel like every teenager who thought bbc sherlock was the shit back then is now looking back on it years later and realizing hey this show was not all that actually i am definitely one of them lol

I’m so embarrassed I didn’t know the characters were voiced by most of those people😀.

So to summarize, the two points that Sherlock actually got were: - A character who was barely in season 1 of Elementary, but Elementary got a half point for her anyway. - A character who in Elementary was only a fake persona, used by a different character that Elementary got the point for. I find this hilarious. And I agree, Elementary is the much better modernised TV adaptation of Sherlock Holmes.

Thanks for the vid! I’ve been looking for more and more GX reviews. I can tell we must be around the same age because of all the references you make, and we’re definitely into similar things. The orange Cassidy reference for Jaden is perfection! And I loved when you said Chaz is going to a better academy with blackjack, and hookers. One of my fave Futurama episodes 😂 just gotta lower the volume on the music a bit, but I enjoyed this thoroughly regardless
