How is Yokai Watch cat one of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics mascots

>>385010420
Who is on the right?

>>385010496
Precures outdated by four years by the time the olympics will roll in.

>>385010496
precures. basically pedobait chars.

as to you OP, because yokai watch was really really popular in 2016 and none of them on the olympic committee in japan had any forethought to realize that they burn through fads at a rate of like 2 a year. Pokemon is comparatively timeless. I mean, a rathalos would have been a more culturally relevant symbol than the yokai watch cat, cause the series is dead everywhere.

Because The Pokémon Company hates having Pokémon be involved in anything that's not their games.

>>385010420
Shin Chan's still popular?

BUT WILL THERE BE KAMEN RIDERS?

>>385010420
Toei and WSJ are rich and connected as fuck.
And nintendo is not willing to unass the money or do the favors to get pikachu and mario put up there.

I mean, they got those two particular precures in there and precures are changed more often then the sheets in a busy upscale whore house.

>>385010885
>to get mario up there
mario is literally the MAIN mascot of the yokyo olympics. did you miss the fucking closing ceremonies in rio?

>>385010420
SHIN CHAN IS IN THE OLYMPICS???

>>385010420
Isn't Yokai Watch's popularity on the decline?

>>385010885
Nigga, Mario was the main mascot in the reveal, you retarded?

YOkai watch is the most forced shit of all-time.

youa who be agreee?

>>385010420
the Olympic games have over stayed their welcome, all this will do is flood Tokyo with foreigners, and nothing good will come of this.

get ready for some asinine press that has nothing to do with sports

>>385010420
>Olympics "mascots"
So only Luffy, Goku and Shin-chan are relevant on a globals scale?

>>385010420
Are you confusing the ambassadors for the official mascots?

>>385011006
Very much so. Level-5 has put it on the backburner to try and reverse YW fatigue in Japan.

>>385013217
that Horm-Horm Fruit fag and silverfox foxy pirates ruined both the manga and the anime, don't see how One Piece is relevant anywhere at this point.

Even with her 3 is kinda shit. Story wasn't well executed, though its longer like the original. but my god is there so many useless minigames and tedious shit you have to go through.
they should of spent more time on it instead of focusing on having to do 2 spin-offs before 3's release

Yeah I'm talking about YW1's story length
3 is long as 1.
3's ending was mediocre at best. the villain was really good but because you couldn't really emphasize with the protagonist as much, it just feels off
also I'm one of the few that doesn't hate Inhao. I'm neutral at best towards her and I see some of the good sides in her though it can be forced sometimes but the saving the brother part was well executed

Wow, that doesn't bode too well for YW3. I've yet to play it, personally I felt YW2 lost a good chunk of the charm that made me like YW1 despite being barebones so I don't really care about the story for YW3, but is it really shorter like that?

PreCures are more popular in Japan than Godzilla, in a seasonal fad sense. Which is sad because PreCure is fucking garbage and I can't fathom how it got popular. It's like Kantai Collection but the waifus are worse.

To be honest, mascots should be:
Astro Boi
Kamen Rider
Goku
Mazinger
Sailor Moon
Pikachu
Mario
Asuka from Eva

>>385010420
Jibanyan was super fucking popular at the time of the announcement. I mean, Pikachu is also ridiculously iconic, but he's just sort of there. Although YW is on the decline, Jibanyan exploded into popularity while Pokemon was a hit 20 years ago and is just really coasting on its legacy

>>385019021
Show

Sailor Moon is literally the only good mascot.

maybe they don't want something that was once a metaphor for the nuclear bombs to be the mascot of the event?

or maybe they already have something planned with gojira, which i hope is the case because he's awesome.

>>385010420
are these really the mascots? Looks shopped as hell

>>385010420
goku, astro boy and sailor moon.

luffy and Naruto are only relevant to shounenfags which need not be considered and precure is about the same level except for girls. YW isn't popular outside japan and shin-chan is just too ugly and also not popular enough outside of japan.

Precure, Toei's scared golden cow that they spoil with all the high-quality animation while neglecting their other property despite them doing better in the ratings.

>>385010420

because Mario is already in. They have to at least be somewhat fair.

>>385019598
The final look for Gaim (not the final form, which look boss) looks so fucking ridiculous and stupid I can't even take it seriously anymore.

>>385020678
Agreed. Those three are legitimate icons, but the rest don't really fit. Might as well throw in Cowboy Bebop and Big O as well, which are great shows but let's be considerate here.

You mean exactly because of the better ratings, people will keep watching them despiste of the animation quality because things like One Piece and Dragon Ball are just that big, while with something like precure you need better eye candy.

Is Ex-Aid over?
I liked it in the beginning but it has some cringey acting, and I say this as someone who loves Kamen Rider. Plus the suits were so stupid at lvl 1.

Is this the new one?

Fansub groups like Over-Time usually make them

If O-T doesn't sub one, a new group like Aesir or Excite pops up to take care of it

Otherwise, the only other option would be TV-Nihon and well...

>>385023160
>Plus the suits were so stupid at lvl 1.
They aren't used anymore if it can help you picking it up again

>>385023160
Exaid gets pretty damn good after a while, and they ditch the level 1 suits after like 20 episodes in, I like it a lot. The new one is Build, the first rider of the new era, suit looks cool so far
