Is Exodia A God? Godxodia! - YU-GI-OH! Theory

Hey Guys! Hope you're enjoying the Yugioh Theory content I'm putting out. I've got another theory video coming on Saturday so keep an eye on that! Let me know if you're enjoying them! Also, I just dropped some 414YGO t-shirts on Teespring! They are available here if you want one teespring.com/en-GB/414ygo-2018-tee Don't forget to tag me on social if you pick one up :D

I would pay good money to see a boxing match between Exodia and Obelisk.

He's the forbidden one because he was that strong. His original rampage almost destroyed Egypt and the only way he was stopped was Shimon had to seal him in 5 separate tablets and he vowed never to release him again, hence the name the forbidden one.

My theory was always that Exodia is akin to the Greek Titans. As such, he was too powerful for the Egyptian gods to kill, so they sealed him instead. He's a dark type, not divine, so him being a god is strange to me. Now just to joke around because why not... How many cards does the original artwork actually have the spellbinding circle behind them? (or the pentagram used in the Japanese art).. it's only the dark magicians, Right? So perhaps... Exodia is the final form of the dark magician, after his magical power has reached near limitless levels. (Alternatively Dark Magician could have sealed it, but I like the idea of him being Dark magician)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! GODXODIA IMPOSSIBLE NO ONE WAS ABLE TO SUMMON HIM BEFORE

" I Have assembled all five special cards , all five pieces of the puzzle ! Exodia ... Obliterate !! " absolute fav moment :)

There's actually a lot more evidence for this. Exodia is wielded by yugis grandpa who has a Jewish name "solomon" and wears a Jewish head cover Yarmulke with a censored star of david on it. Solomons past incarnation like with Yugi and Kaiba having Pharaoh Atem and Seto etc.. was called Shimon which is the hebrew pronunciation of the name Simon (also jewish). Shimon summons exodia to fight against Zorc. So yeah, tons of connections. His chained nature may connect to the jewish slavery of the exodus, and how you mentioned worship of the Abrahamic faith being "forbidden" etc.. it seems quite likely.

It's the oldest question in the history of Yugioh

I've always thought that Exodia was based on Osiris

No, Exodia is reference to Osiris and him being dismembered. Also, Obelisk is based of Geb (Geb is the Earth and an Obelisk is a tall pointed monument made of stone). Ra is based off...well Ra the Sun God. Slifer is a bit ambiguous with a reference but his name is from a employee that worked on the show I believe.

So in essence Exodia is Aten, the forbidden monotheistic deity (akin to Ra) introduced by Pharaoh Akhenaten.

Love it and of course I wish there was more of those theory videos.

I do think Exodia is an Egyptian god. I mean if you look at him, he resembles a pharaoh and pharaohs were considered gods on earth, the intermediary between the gods and the people. Could this also mean the pharaoh, Atem is a god? That could explain why Marrick wanted the power of the pharaoh , because Atem's power is of a god. Anyway it's good to see that you are trying different content. Keep it up.

I appreciate you giving more truth and history about this character that makes more sense. A lot of people love using all sorts of lore but when you connect the dots to where it actually comes from people are afraid or ignorant to the biblical connections. Cool stuff man.

Think his fomration is definitely full of references. I mean His separate cards are an : Arm Leg Leg Arm Head. If you take the first letters you get ALLAH. It could be a reference to the hip hop song.

I like this! More theory videos please!

Weeeeell, the situation with Zorc WAS caused by the weakness of Shimon, so I don’t know who would win in a fair fight.

I just found an old Yugioh book: ‘Yu-Gi-Oh! Enter the Shadow Realm Monster Duel official handbook.’ that states Exodia is “ The guardian god for the ancient Egyptian palace, he’s not to be taken lightly.”

exodia vs godzila

Awesome video hope to see more
