If anything, the Ashime was anti-nostalgia.
Imagine you're a pokemania dropoff, and you decide to give the current season of the ashime a quick peek. You go in expecting to see your favorites, and then you see this shit.
It's awful. It's cringe. It's exactly what happened to me, and exactly why I was glad for Horizons. At least with Horizons I know most of the original cast are never going to appear.
And this might be controversial to some of you, but I'm glad I'll never see May, Dawn, Hilda, Serena, etc either. To people who dropped the anime during the original series, those pokegirls are elite trainers and champions. Seeing them degraded into fashion models is unappealing to those of us who aren't into shipping Ash with every girl that appears.
