>The Japanese audience generally liked BW (the main arc at least), with the exception of Team Rocket's retooling into more serious villains
>The western audience has the opposite view
>The Western audience generally views XYZ as an improvement over Best Wishes, the Japanese audience holds the opposite view, with XYZ generally having worse ratings than BW's main arc
>Pokemon Origins was liked by Western fans, but in Japan, its ratings were nothing special, and a regular anime special starring Brock and Cilan did better
As far as the anime goes, whatever the Western audience likes, the Japanese audience hates or is indifferent to, and vice-versa.
That's probably why they'll never make a full series like Origins in Generations; it wouldn't be popular enough in Japan to warrant it, judging by the lukewarm reception Origins got, and the current anime is still doing its job of selling merchandise.
>all serious aspect of the show loses rating in Japan
That's because the otaku nips are all moeshitters that watches moeshit aka the cancer that's killing anime, 2 bombs wasn't enough, I'll tell you that much.

Or maybe, and this might be a shock to you, maybe Japanese children (the primary viewing audience for this show, not otaku) prefer things remain light-hearted.

Ratings are what studios use to decide what should get renewed for a second season, and what should be cancelled.
The Ashnime has good enough ratings to keep getting renewed.
Judging by the lukewarm reception to Origins, a series like that would last for one season before getting shitcanned.

I'm seriously starting to believe radiation can cause autism. Japan has low birth rate, high suicide, people with low social interaction and wiling to work for 16 hours a day. All this can be explained with the fact that the average Jap is at least partially autistic. Plus, it explains Japanese tv
>>28569788
The ratings has nothing to do with nips liking BW more you retard. The ratings has been steadily declining literally every season. The only exception is actually XY have better ratings than decolora islands. It's literally the only time it has gone up.
Ratings are falling because people, especially kids are moving away from tv as a medium and instead stream or download it. Which you can't actually rate which makes rating between the pokemon series mean absolute shit.
XY has good rating anyway.

This anon is likely correct honestly the backlash from the war and the psychological damage from the bomb caused cuteness to be way over represented in Japanese society
What did they think about the games?
Or even just on 2chan
