X/Y Anime Episode 5 Hype Thread #1

No.15674932 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Only a couple of hours left until it's time for your weekly Thursday dose of nippon Ash, except now it's moderately decent (at least for the time being). Until then discuss, speculate, bitch and moan, etc etc.

Today's episode:
>The Santalune Gym Battle! The Magnificent Vivillon's Dance Battle!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsXimBZPsRo
Ash will battle Viola for his first Kalos gym badge. Unfortunately, all signs by now point to him losing against her and instead winning in a rematch next week. What WILL happen is that Serena will finally catch up the group in this episode. What does this mean, exactly? Will she "win"? Will she show him that bloody handkerchief from way back when? Will he remember? Guess what? No one fucking knows.

Next episodes:
>Decisive Battle on the Ice! Pikachu VS Vivillon!
>Leave it to Serena!? The Exciting Rhyhorn Race!
>Pokémon Trimmer and Furfrou!

Shit people will ask:
>Is this season good? I haven't watched the anime in [x] years and-
It's better than Unova. Will it peak soon? Most likely, but just enjoy the ride as it is now.

>WILL SERENA WIN DA ASH!?!?!?!
Nobody knows, but given that 99% of the time Serena's character is mentioned, Ash is alluded to in one way or another, there's no doubt that it's going to be touched upon eventually.

>muh subs when?
[PM] is now starting to sub X/Y, their release schedule is flimsy, but they have the best subs available, work with them.

>B-BUT I SAW THESE OTHER LUCARIOPK SUBS ON THE INTERNET AND-
No. LucarioPK is google translate shit, don't do it. Seriously, I'm doing you a favor. DON'T.

>why aren't the first two episodes subbed by [PM]?
The dub beat them to the punch so they skipped to episode 3. They'll sub episode 1&2 after finishing the rest of the BW subs. Until then, handle the dub or raw for the first two episodes.

>muh dubs when?
December 14th at this rate if there are no breaks. There are still a few BW episodes left to air. They will not air the Brock special.
