My Yugioh anime hot take of the night is Alexis Rhodes might've been the main character if Jaden wasn't set in stone as the protagonist
#musings#yugioh#don't get me wrong i really do like jaden#he's one of my favorite characters in the franchise#but alexis had a very similar strong sense of justice and would frequently step to the plate when it mattered#i think the main issue with her as the protagonist is her deck#it just wasn't as flexible or fun to watch as jaden's#protagonist decks have to be designed to win in various ways#even if those ways universally involve special summons the monsters have to be different#elemental heroes are one of the most intelligently designed protagonist archetypes for that reason#if alexis was the hero there'd need to be a LOT more cyber girls and cyber angels#personally i just wanna see her being given the agency she deserves#and i wanna see more than one obelisk blue girl be an actual character#jasmine and mindy don't count because they're basically background characters#anyway i'm not saying alexis should've taken jaden's place#but i am saying that she's the most suited to the role out of the other characters#if he wasn't introduced so late i'd also say axel brodie could easily work
