So let me get this straight. Ash has a cute girl in love with him, a nerd that wants to be him, a little girl that looks up to him, and possibly an new "student" who wants to learn from his every move?
Are the writers trying to make up for how shit they treated him in BW? Because Ash actually feels like a genuine shonen protagonist now. Say what you want about him being "too glorified", but that's every shonen MC ever, and now Ash is there. At least until next series.
