>>22744056 I've always been curious about the psychology of Pokeshippers. Why would you insist on supporting Ash with a character that's no longer relevant?
I'm honestly inclined to believe it's mainly just Genwunners; People who only like the original 151, and stopped watching the anime long ago.

Its sad that Misty fans wasted their energy hating May and Dawn for years because they thought they were, "stealing Ash away from Misty" or replaced Misty. Serena doesn't really received as much irrational hate from Misty fans because most of them have moved on from the series, even though Serena's canon crush is exactly what they were fearing from May and Dawn. If Serena was introduced 10 years ago her character would have been brutally hated by Pokeshippers and there would have been huge shipping wars between Amourshippers and Pokeshippers

>>22744516 I think what is means is that, in the short run, there's no way Serena will win, but in the long term, there is that small chance, when the planets align and pigs fly, that Serena could win. I think the eagerness of the Amourshippers for Serena to win may have been boosted because of the case of Naruto and Hinata.

I watched OS and shipped Misty and Ash pretty hard. Later, when I watched DP (didn't watch AG since it wasn't on TV anymore, I didn't have constant internet connection, and was busy with muh education) I shipped Dawn and Ash hard, really, really hard. Now I ship Serena and Ash. How did I do it? How did I escape when so many others cling to a long outdated ship? I mean, I loved OS, I cried bitch tears when my classmates moved on to Digimon and later when it was getting cancelled IN THE MIDDLE OF THE Orange Islands! How?

>>22746235 Wasn't bad. Not the best opening ever, but not bad at all.
What's more interesting to me is that for the first time ever (or maybe since the Orange Islands), the season doesn't have a unique title. It's still just "Pokemon The Series XY." That's totally fine, better that than a semi-random sequence of words that has barely anything to do with the actual content of the episodes, like "Advanced Challenge" or "Rival Destines". It's just surprising.

As you said, seasons will definitely still exist, separated by new openings and breaks in the airing schedule. Even if there wasn't a new name, this was still the Season 18 premier. It's just interesting (and probably for the better) that they're not naming each season this time around.

>>22746292 Eh, that's already one retarded line off the bat for Season 18 in my book: that doesn't even make any sense at all, but it's Cathcart, so that's to be expected.
The dub opening isn't as cancerous as the XY Remix, though, right? I mean, TPCi didn't rape another 4Kids theme? I'll take those cheesy as shit intros they do over that stoner singer with shitty guitar dub BGM with "Gotta Catch Em AWWWWL" again, tbh.
As for the title, I personally think it's pretty shitty that they don't even do the season titles anymore- lazy asses: I liked how each season had a unique feel to it because of variation of titles in the dub in that regard.

>>22746344 Personally, I loathe all three of the BW themes with a passion, especially the first one. I also liked the XY S1 OP for a few reasons, but honestly, to each his own on that one.
I knew from the movie's ED that the new composer could do a good original OP. Just had to get rid of the executive meddling that wanted to tickle nostalgia boners.
As for the season titles, while I was curious as to what they'd be for XY, I can do without them. Since "Pokemon: The Series" seems to be the new branding, adding additional titles would just be a mouthful

>>22746378 I can't say anything for that anon, bro, but it sure as hell affects mine: I actually want to fucking watch the dub (inb4 shit taste fags), but Cathcart, Natochenny, Knotz, Cathcart's shitty script writing, that Middle Ages UFO dub BGM, and so much more.
Seriously, the dub is unbearable nowadays: if it was even half as good as it was in its earlier seasons, I'd still watch it.

>>22746380 But I didnt imply that. I just said reading the words and watching the show is annoying at times since id rather hear the English words than feel like I'm reading a script.

>>22746386 It's alright, bro: I'm kind of the reverse on those OPs, but we can all agree 4Kids' OPs beat the shit out of TPCi's, right?
God, now you have me curious, bro: literally the only TPCi dub intro I've liked is Galactic Battles so far, tbh. I hope this one is decent!
I think it's fucked up, tbh: there's no soul or creativity to the Arcs anymore- I'm not a fan of the rebranding, though.

>>22746389 The music is a mixed bag to me. The composition itself seems sound enough, it's just the overall direction that's weird. It feels like it's trying to be a classic Saturday morning cartoon which is an odd choice with (mostly) being an action show. It's got the same problem the raw version has though in that the audio mixing is complete shit. The raw is too loud and the dub is too quiet.
As for the voices, well shit, it's better than Sonic was when 4Kids was at the helm. 6 years of an unwatchable show and unplayable games with no option to change it the majority of the time. I can't stress enough how glad I was when they all got the boot bar Pollock

Gonna have to disagree on the VAs, though: the TPCi voices are so atrocious, even 4Kids' One Piece voices have more votes for them on Behind the Voice Actors. Not that 4Kids' Sonic voices were good, but compared to TPCi Pokemon voices, they were OK.

>>22746499 I don't disagree. Pokemon was easily one of 4Kid's best efforts cause it was one of the three shows they actually gave a damn about (they others were Yugioh and TMNT). In retrospect, I think getting burned by soccer mons all the damn time was what made them tighten up and start fucking up all their other properties.
I think the reason that this dub doesn't bother me as much as the rest of you is cause I've seen worse. Much worse. It's honestly a diamond in the rough compared to the absolute train wreck that was Power Rangers: Super Megaforce. It takes a lot to make me quit watching a show halfway through, but by god they pulled it off. Thankfully, it was so shit that the higher ups stepped in and threw out that cancerous EP.
I wonder if pokemon has the same issue, where someone really high up just doesn't give a fuck and allows the quality to be what it is.

Considering they took the show from 4Kids, it's pretty obvious their number one priority is "spend as little money as we possibly can without going below Cartoon Network's threshold for acceptable quality". It's about as low-budget, zero-care a production as you can get.

>>22746558 It's not a dub, but an "adaptation", and I use that term extremely loosely in this case. They took a show that was PERFECT to celebrate the 20th anniversary of PR (Gokaiger) and used it in a way that made it painfully obvious that they literally didn't give a fuck about the history of the franchise at all.
I could go on a long ass rant about how shit it is, but I'll just say this. They blew at least 100 grand to bring back about a dozen of the old power ranger actors (flew them first class from USA to NZ) and only had them speak two lines at best. Some of the motherfuckers didn't even speak!

-Serena being happy being with Ash and becoming frustrated that Ash went of somewhere
-Serena encouraged Ash and gave him the inspiration for what kind of gift he could get for his Pokemon.

>>22746893 >Half the people working on the anime production probably aren't even aware there IS an English dub of it It's an international franchise, you'd have to be a complete moron to not know the show you're working on is being localized around the world. They'd know the dub exists, but they wouldn't bother watching it or knowing shit about it.

>>22746911 I don't think Random Simpsons Animator #12 knows if there's currently a Cantonese dub of the series or not.

>>22746902 To be the best of the best
Some day you're destined for power and glory
You know you're up to the test
There's only one way to tell this story
Be a hero, be a hero
All the power is at your command
Face your fears and show you're a hero
The future of the world is in your hand
Pokemon!
Nigga how in the fuck is that NOT Pokemon related? That is literally what you do as a protag in Pokemon. Save the world with power that you command, and become the best of the best, AKA the Champion.

>>22746947 The Pokemon anime is primarily aimed at kids too young to know more than their first language. An English dub isn't useful to anyone but native English speakers.

>>22746945 Ash still isn't a fucking teenager, so get out, fandumb.
>>22746955 You weren't 10 in 7th grade: point rendered moot.
Also, N's BW2 trailer voice was shit- Wayland is shit too- DiMichele in the actual Anime dub was much better.

>>22746939 Thank fucking god they didn't do that: even the one they did for Season 18 is far better than their butchery of 4Kids' first theme, though the singer kinda kills it with his off key and stilted delivery.

>>22746958 What does that have do to with if the writers know it exist a english dub or not?
Also, english is not my first language but I watched the english OS dub when I was a kid.

>>22746959 Yeah because Ash is 10 in XY amirite? 10 year olds just go around jumping off of towers amirite? 10 year olds dress up in Pokemon display and post videos online amirite? 10 year olds build giant electrical towers and electric baths am I fucking right?
