>>38343469>The dub music is fucking awful compared to the Japanese music.This is my first exposure to XY, but i'm sure this is true given how hard the dubs tend to mutilate OST's. Might watch the sub instead.
>They hint at Ash going back to the battle chateau to battle Grant and the other gym leaders but he never does.This DOES sound shitty.
>None of the main characters have a rival until WAY later in the series.I don't particularly mind this. Paul was clearly a one-off and Trip was the shittiest thing ever. I'd rather be alone than in bad company.
>Almost every episode has Team Rocket as part of the main conflict after BW established they didn't need to be that wayThere's LITERALLY nothing wrong with TR
>It sucks from a story telling standpoint until about the middle of the series.It's alright so far. It's no D/P, but id say if it had arcs as good as Hunter J's arcs, it'd be just as good.
I'll keep watching, but so far it's my 3rd fave behind OS and DP, itd be neat if it could at least become my 2nd fave. I kinda wanna ditch the Twitch stream, but it's comfy to shitpost with chat. Is it worth it to just watch the subs?
