>Summary 1:
>"The Megalith Advances! Kalos' Defense Line!!"

>Summary 2:
>"Zygarde Fights Back! The Final Battle for Kalos!!"
>Satoshi and his friends go up against the legendary megalith in order to save the world. With their companions opening the way for them, Satoshi and Alan finally make their way into the megalith and rescue Hari-san.

Did they cut Serena's hair to soften the blow for when she is cut from the show by making her less appealing?

Or did they just take a chance and change her style and the backlash led to her demise?

You could just not watch it and don't post in this thread. There's like many other non-anime related threads you can post in for the next 3 years. Since you like the game, you can post in that thread instead.

Only 7 eps left to Amour ends.

XY was for nothing. It went nowhere. People are angry and have a right to be angry.

>>28480935
It already ended with Ash and Serena's spat.

>>28480919
No, I must be here to tell people how shit the anime is going to be.

The fact that they want to emulate Yokai Watch tells me the big wig are becoming restless.

I'm beyond sad guys. I was looking foward to pic related of Serenafags BTFO. But it seems like all of you already gave up way before today. Thats why the BTFO doesn't feel so satisfaying.

I hope Guzma or Ultra Beasts or Solgaleo and Lunala destroy the world so they can kill new "I'm unironically more retarded than I was in BW" Ash.

>>28480979
>Already intimidated by a similar new anime this fast.
They know how shit the anime is and know it's far from where it should be. But this SM stuff gives me BW vibes so they fucked up again.

Aren't we jumping to conclusions just based on a single piece of artwork? If you want to act like hysterical broads, go ahead.

I'm thinking this general will have to go back to a weekly thread once the SM anime begins. Because I can't imagine many people giving a fuck.

>>28481045
Yes, but it's fun being hysterical heh

>>28481045
Dude, Ash's face looks so terrible there's no reason not to be concerned. Also the lack of Serena just kills Amour and everything they built up ship wise for 3 years.

>>28481030
They were getting good with XY, but they fucked up with the league, Alan stealing the show and the lackluster ending. Now they are fucking things up even more.
They are knitting the rope which will be used to hanged them.

No, just fucking no. This is exactly, EXACTLY, the same vibe I got from BW when I heard they were cutting Brock. You can just keep it the way it was before, I can forgive doing trial captains instead of gym leaders but a fucking SCHOOL?! NO NO NO. I'D RATHER ASH GET TOP 64 IN EVERY SUBSEQUENT LEAGUE THAN THIS HAPPEN.

A more slice of life oriented anime without a league doesn't sounds so bad. I don't want to see a faggot like Alan again shitting up a league.
Also, whats the point in tournaments we know the MC will lost.
It's still shotshow since most likely they will give XYZ shitty resolution. Bah, just let's watch anything else and try to forget Pokemon ever existed.

This is my only worry. Especially when they're also introducing this new concept in the anime after 19 years, which will take some time to get used to after it airs. I would hope some of them are at least recurring rather than dealing with another Bonnie/Serena screentime share situation again but potentially handled worse.

If it's taken down from sites because the artists are making money, of course TCPi has a right to take that down.

The black friend
And Lana with Sophocles (because they're both the same size)

Am I the only want interested in more comfy anime? All the grandiosity and drama of XY ended up in the gutter. I prefer no league and less focus o battles if Ash can't never win because of executive mandate.

The poster is for illustrating the idea of the first few episodes or so of the season, where Ash will be attending school and have a whole class instead of one small group. I don't think he'll be moving anywhere for a while.

Will you watch the SM anime if at least one character from the XY series returned?

It could be Alan

I feel like they purposefully made Ash look weird in the poster, I don't think it's too indicative of what the anime will look like. I also don't see it as the next BW, more the next OI or BF. He'll graduate, and we'll likely go back to gyms next gen.

Can she be my new companion?

I dont think Ash will have travel companions this time, atleast in the usual way

It seems like this season will be more like a school anime, so they'll have a large cast with the trail captians and maybe some other school kids

Maybe when Ash does venture out to do the trails, The captians will go with him and they'll rotate of per trial, with an extra tagging along

It could be a good reason to bring back Serena, Brock, May, Gary, Dawn, etc. and have them be on vacation or research trips in Alola and accompany Ash for one trial each

>>28482497
I could very well be wrong, it just seems like a giant art shift, but the other characters seem somewhat normal, Ash looks way off even compared to the other characters on the poster.

He must take it because of the ptsd

I withhold my judgement till the anime airs. But I was thinking, what if they are removing all the things the dragged down the show? Like the league for example. The same people who made XY enjoyable is behind this, what was the main problem? The mandate that the protagonists can't have definite victories. I think toning down the competitive aspect will make the show more enjoyable. At least we won't have to suffer another Ep 38.
I'm all for a more relaxed anime.

The whole point of the franchise is battling. They should have had Ash win a league first then do a reboot.

Is this the first time Ash has done a complete 1:1 of the male protagonist instead of just doing his own "take" on their clothes?

To me. Fat kid can have Mallow and Lana will be our adopted daughter. Ash belongs to Serena.

XY rise above the sub par Pokemon experience and subsequent Episode 38 disaster that nullified all the improvement over three years, was carefully orchestrated by the Nova Mob, to cause a massive psychic turmoil in order to leech of from the mental energy produced by said distress. You were all manipulated, fed like cattle and slaughtered accordingly. The Nova Mob grew stringer, and with them its planetary annihilation goal.
From now this kind of psychic swindle will be known as Big 38 or 38 Maneuver.

The anime really is dead this time. I didn't think things could get worse than BW, but the writers somehow proved me wrong. I mean as bad as BW was, it still never lost sight of what the anime was about and Ash's goal. Plus it had the occasional good episodes and characters.

This is just...ridiculous. Its a reboot still using the same character in a school setting. What the fuck were they thinking?

I don't see why Ash wouldn't graduate. It's more Orange Islands than a main series type of thing.

Come on, man.

There is a million things he could have done to make his team better, though. Even switching out the slug for Gible would have taken him miles. Not to mention if he had bothered to let Gible fully evolve.

Eat shit. Glad to see that fucking slug die even if it meant the championship.

Not really, I was just implying that Xzard seems like an OP Gary Stu in the anime, so if Ash had used one, he probably would've won.

>>28485197
The same argument could be made for Ashninja, though. He's literally fueled off the power of anime-mc-bullshit/power of friendship. Other than that stumble when Ash lost his swag against Shota and Wulfric, Greninja was sweeping shit left and right.

>>28485146
Lesson here is that romantic love doesn't get a special treatment and ash's companions will get phased out until the end of time.

Its just stupid for the writers to push the ship so hard, both in show and outside of it via advertisements, if they couldn't follow through with it. I mean, what were they thinking? How did they expect people to react?

Fan reaction in Japan going into the S/M anime is likely going to be very negative.

We've seen the frog every season in different forms starting all the way back with Charizard. We've never had confirmed emotions from a female companion before.

In the end though, he got beaten by Xzard.

After so much hype and expectation, he lost his most important fight.

Infernape still beat Electivire in the Sinnoh League, despite losing to Darkrai.

Charizard still sweeped three of Gary's Pokemon in the Johto League despite losing to Blaziken.

Xzard was AshGreninja's final test to prove his GOAT status, and he fucked it up.

I slept well last night and just finished backreading

I'm hyped as fuck for SM

Couldn't have put it better. Ash has already been to school and they're trying to make it last 2-3 years this time.

>>28484030
>Japanese are outraged enough
They aren't, the ratings were already shit even when Ash was on the verge of winning.

So why can't the anime just end or get canceled already? I want to see Ash become champion and the show to end.

Why can't rating plummet? These reboots are shit.

>>28485522
And the writers somehow think putting Ash in school and making him look like a moron is somehow going to increase ratings? That's what I don't get, how the hell do they think this will improve viewership? Yokai watch kids don't care. Older fans will be pissed after XY ends.

Well it looks like there's more girls this time around, so they might be aiming for the harem audience.

Oh well then do it like me, archive all the XY art in their respective folders and start collecting the new SM art, some of them are pretty good.

>>28485549
Its 3 girls, not much more than usual. Especially if you count rivals like Shauna, Millefeui...there were a lot of girls in XY

>>28485571
Shauna and Milfy weren't sticking around for the entire arc though.
