Jinzo, known as Android - Psycho Shocker in Japanese, is a minor antagonist in both Yu-Gi-Oh! and Yu-Gi-Oh! GX. In the original Yu-Gi-Oh!, Jinzo was a card used by Espa Roba in a duel with Joey Wheeler (who took the card upon his victory in accordance to Battle City rules) and Lector used Jinzo as his Deck Master. In Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, Jinzo was a malevolent duel spirit that planned to enter the real world by stealing the souls of the three Duel Academy students who attempted to summon him. Additonally, Jinzo was used by Jinzo Art duelist Makoto Inotsume.
He is voiced by Satoshi Tsuruoka in Japanese and by Sean Schemmel in English.
Appearance[]
Jinzo is a tall android/cyborg with a wrinkled human head with a mask covering his face. He wears a green jacket with shoulder pads, a belt, and spikes.
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX[]
A group of three Obelisk Blue students unwittingly decided to perform a forbidden ritual to summon a duel spirit. It turns out that the duel spirit that they trying to summon was Jinzo. At first, it looked the ritual produced no result, but after two of the three students started to disappear, one of them named Torrey begna to see Jinzo stalking him. Fearing for his life, he asked for Jaden Yuki's help, only to be kidnapped by Jinzo shortly afterward, who intended to steal his soul so that he could enter the real world. Juden followed Jinzo and challenged him to a duel, defeating the duel spirit in the Shadow Duel and forcing him to give up his ambition. All three students came back, and Jinzo disappeared.
Powers and Abilities[]
During a Duel, "Jinzo" has the ability to negate all traps on the field as well as prevent Traps being activated; however, with the Equip Spell "Amplifier", the duelist controlling "Jinzo" can activate Trap cards again, and the Traps that were nullified on their side of the field are reactivated. As a Deck Master, "Jinzo" can only negate the opponents' traps.
Deck[]
Jinzo plays an "Occult-Jinzo" deck, focusing on the abilities of himself and "Ectoplasmer", the latter of which allows him to continuously revive his "Malice Doll of Demise", which thrives on being sent to the Graveyard via the Spell.
Trivia[]
- In the original Yu-Gi-Oh!, one of the members of the Big Five; Lector decided to have his deck master be Jinzo. As an homage to this, Jinzo the duel spirit was briefly seen wearing the same outfit as Lector before revealing his identity as said monster.
