Xiaolin Showdown Jack Vs Chronicles Jack

Hey, Halie again.

This time we are seeing Jack VS Jack.  Feel free to post your own thoughts in the comments portion. As always I don't own Xiaolin showdown/Chronicles or anything like that. I am merely stating what I think.

Now, Showdown Jack is a whiny crybaby with a big ego. A boy who never gives up even when he gets kicked down. Easily tricked, but everyone somehow loves him(fans, not anyone in the show). He is never seen as a real threat, more of an annoyance. He also is a momma's boy and stays home with his parents in a rather nice house. He also is pretty smart considering I could never build a robot let alone one with a mind of it's own. lol. From what I know of, everyone loves Jack scared and panicking since it is so funny. He also is the only person in the show who uses the Shen gong wu like any normal person would. Jack is pretty much like one of us except he's in the world of the shen gong wu. He is also a fan of Chase Young and Hannibal Roy Bean. He wants to be seen as an equal so he is eager to please, yet at the same time if they aren't their he will diss them to try to seem cool. And He has a helipack which he uses to go everywhere and always has it on.

Chronicles Jack, reminds me of doctor Frankenstein. His new pad is a spooky greenhouse in a dark area that looks abandoned. Did his parents kick him out? He has robots still and a slim down version of Cyclops which showed up like once. He is still whiny and trying to take over the world with his impressive lair (for a teenage boy that is really impressive). We learn more about his allergies and other odd things. However he seems to have ditched his signature helipack for a car? It is like a mobile science lab/lair. Maybe he is 16 and is now legally able to drive now??? We have yet to see his misuse of the shen gong wu except lording over that he had one. He doesn't have as amusing screams as he did in showdown, but he seems to have grown up.

Truth be told I don't find much wrong with this new Jack. However he is less funny, I can't put my finger on why yet. Maybe the way he talks?(phrasing) and Jack does cry a lot less. I miss that.  Maybe explain how come he doesn't live at home anymore would be a good idea. I hope in the future he will be a bit more like himself which was a highly amusing, very realistic character that every fan could say "Uht yeah, I would do that too."

Showdown Chase Vs Chronicles Chase

Hey all,

I am Halie, I am a huge fan of Xiaolin Showdown. My favorite character being Chase Young from the show. They now have Xiaolin Chronicles out which is a continuation of Showdown. However like other fans I have questions and even issues with the new series.

Chase Young. I accept his design had to be changed physically. but did they have to alter him mentally too? 

He oringally was a cocky, egotistical, honor-bound, elegant bad guy. When he was relaxing he could be seen in his awesome home inside the creepy mountain. He was a loner feeling that no one could be as good as him. He looked down at all. He had his eyes on Omi as he felt he was a threat and a threat as an ally instead of a foe is always a better idea. He seems to have a love of manipulating people and easily could pull off a dark prince role. This is how he is in showdown

He was reborn again in Chronicles. He still is cocky and egotistical, but he seems to have lost his honor-bound and elegant nature. He now is vain, focus on his looks, and a bit creepy with his interactions with Shadow, which she herself is creepy. He does odd things like diving his head into a bowl of water which he was watching others with still laughing or explains how much he loves how the robot altered his soup's taste. While I can see he still is a loner, he now has an offspring, Shadow, though the way they interact looks more like lovers than father and daughter.  His home now looks like a dreary cave with no effort to have the finer things in life like Chase was known for. Chase seems more like a wild animal in this new form than before.

Truth be told I totally dislike Shadow. I could see Chase having an offspring, but Shadow is not what I pictured for his offspring. And the fact he reproduced Asexually is kinda freaky.

Now I still love Chase Young in Xiaolin be it Showdown or Chronicles. I wish in the future they have Chase acting less creepy with Shadow, and be more of a father figure not like a lover type. (seriously before they showed that she is an incarnation of Chase's I thought she was a love interest for him) And I also wish that Chase would walk upstairs and show his place is as elegant as before and he does like the finer things in life and that he just has a downstairs that he uses for things like taking over the world stuff.


Not sure if anyone agrees with me. But please let me know. :D
