Goodnight, sweet prince.
Ash Ketchum funeral thread.
Predict the franchise's apocalypse ITT
>>28480274
Good fucking riddance
>>28480274
>It's impossible he was drawn that way just for the promo
>>28480340
Denial is the first stage of accepting death, my friend.
Farewell Ash. You tried and you lost hard, the important thing is you disappointed everyone by using Greninja against a Charizard with vastly superior stats.
Don't forget to press f to pay respects.
>>28480274
>"In the series, Ash is going to school and his goal is to graduate."
Has he given up on his dream? How is this even going to work?
>>28480495
He's finally realized he's retarded and wants to improve.
>>28480495
It won't work, it'll be a shitshow but in our hearts Ash stayed in Kalos and the new season is an imposter Ketchum.
What happened with Ash? I don't follow the anime that much.
>>28480567
Corocoro released info on the sun and moon anime, where Ash goes to school. Sounds fun, right? Also they butchered his design which is great.
Gary Oak main character when?
>>28480274
What do the Japanese think of this?
>>28480495
Maybe they're giving him a canon reason to learn actual type advantage/moves and not lose.
If he's just going to go to school though why wouldn't he go back to Pallet town with Professor Oak and his mom?
>Ash is going to school
So this basically confirms no gyms right?
>>28481591
No gyms.
>>28481228
What's the story behind this?
>>28481909
I have always wondered myself. I don't even remember where I found it. Certainly not at 4Gifs. I have tried a few ways to see and never found anything.

He sees a cockroach or something and freaks out, ruining whatever the fuck he was doing. Probably trying to get laid.
>>28482046
this seems like it's part of a sketch comedy show
dubs says ash is a zombie
>>28480557
That's honestly the most comforting thought that this reveal has brought. Ash'll always be a Kalos trainer in my heart and where he'll stay in my memories.
God I wish we got that BW2 anime.
>>28480673
Last I heard they're throwing up a shitstorm.
Who ever the fuck is in charge of the anime needs to resign already.
His decisions have disgraced the entire series.
>>28482461
>Yo Kai over Pokemon
Only Japs like that shit though, why would they put that there?
>>28482461
Jibanyan BTFO the anime as usual. No surprise there.
>>28482495
They know that. Bandai doesn't even sell the toys in America, they handed it off to Hasbro.
They just consider their own country the core audience. It's that simple.
>>28482495
Because it's their house and they make the rules.
Besides, after the Pokemon anime brought dishonor to their country and Pokemon Go proved their fans overseas are literal retards, they are doing good with distancing a bit.

YFW this season become absurdly based.
>>28480274
Goodbye Ash, may god never let you job so hard at a tournament again.
Ash losing the league makes me remember how awesome it was when Goku finally won the Tenkaichi Budokai. Except Ash will never have that moment.
>>28480274
R.I.P Ash
Let it never be said he didn't try.
>>28480296
Ultra Beast spin-off game.
>>28484722
W-why did I have to get dubs on that one...
I was joking! I take it back!
>>28482461
WHERE IS ICHIGO
>we all laugh at goofball Satoshi
> This guy is actually more competent than XY/Z Ash.
>Actually wins Pokemon battles with ease this time
>Wins this region's school team league.
>>28484722
>>28484811
Double dubs!
I was also thinking about a UB spinoff. It seems like they've been moving further away from serious Pokemon battling in some ways, but UB are apparently more dangerous and from another dimension.
>>28485020
They will probably let Ash win this region like he did the Orange Islands because it's irrelevant and not attached to the League.
>>28485199
The league is irrelevant now, leave leaguefag
>>28485199
The only people who cares about relevancy of a league are those people who self insert as Ash
>>28485344
>cannot win the league
>i-it's irrelevant anyway!
fuck off Ash
>>28480673
It{s a constant debate of a shitfling about whether this is a good retconning or not. Again, japan's as segmented about it, as people seem to be.
To me, this is not a good change, but hell, i lost any faith on having closure on the anime ever since the bullshit that has came from Advance Generation. The fact that it took these much seasons to people to undesrtand is what i can't even fathom.
>>28485384
You seem to be concerned about you self-inserting as Ash. Ash winning is the same as you winning. So Grow up, find a different protagonist to see win.
>>28485344
>>28485372
>getting so worked up over the honor of a fictional jobber that you can't even understand what I mean
>>28480274
Is there any hope of Ash getting a re-design? Or are we doomed?
>>28485708
doomed.
At best he have to endure two, three years of anime of quality comparable to AG.
At worst even BW will be a alltime best compared to SM
>>28484722
Pulling off yet another Digimon? Yes, I can sadly see that.
>>28482495
Because Olympic mascots are picked by sponsors, not relevancy. One look at that picture should tell you that.
>>28480274
Maybe now you can get some rest.
>rest in pepperoni
>>28480274
But... Ash legitimately looks better?..
