>>57184256>SM Ash's silly, playful personality actually fit in well with theirsNo it did not , instead it made his personality superficial and made it hard for him to fit in with anybody. Thats why SM failed to recapture the charm of the OS series even when they brought back Misty and Brock.
>Old Ash on the other hand was very insecure about himselfThat's something everybody feels and made Ash more realistic.
>wouldn't have responded well to Lana, Kiawe's and Sophocles' antics which would have resulted in constant fightsGood since fighting and arguing are natural part of life. Only wimps and weak willed people are afraid of fighting.
>Overall the Alola gang would hate the old Ash and it wouldn't have worked at all.This feel something written by somebody who never had a friend before.
