Anyone else notice this? I know the Kamina thing might be stretch, but I'll be damned if Midnight Lycanroc wasnt inspired by Viral.

this is even more of a stretch than "jangmo-o is dio"
and i like gurren lagann
>>29175997
Midnight is honestly Iori Yagami. Their stances and animations are similar.
So, are we forcing Gurren Lagan like Jojo now?
Both are shit regardless, so who cares.
>>29175997
It really was not
TTGL is popular, but it's so recent and still so fringe (It itself being a referential anime that's pretty much a love letter to super robot shows) that it wouldn't be used as a basis, especially a side character.
They do like to reference old Kaiju movies though.

If we're talking about JoJo though, I honestly think Pangoro is some sort of shoutout to Jotaro. They both have bancho inspired designs, and Pangoro's abilities are Iron Fist, Mold Breaker, and Scrappy. That last ability is literally the ability to punch ghosts.

And just like Jojo, it's shit!
>>29176095
Pangoro isn't that bad. Sure, it's super niche in OU, but it's a good niche. It kills stall. It just needs to be faster.
>>29175997
Imagine being this stupid.
>>29176095
I mean, if you think anything that is perfectly decent but by no means incredible is shit, then sure, you dirty hipster
>>29176080
It might, but it's more likely to be a coincidence
>>29176095
Pic related.
Besides at least Pangoro isn't completely shit in OU, albeit close.
Let's force everything.
ohmygodohmygodOHMYGOD
You just blew my fr*ck*ng mind....I was already at a hype level of over 9000 because of the already epic JJBAxUT crossover implications SuMo has, but....jes*s....GURREN LAGANN too????
Bros...my heart is pounding....My eyes are tearing....and I think I pooped a little....this game is going to be the best video game of ALL TIME. Heh...I feel bad for future generations....not bearing witness to the creation of a masterpiece like this....

Well, Jotaro is one of the most notable examples but his character is an entire archetype, and a pretty iconic one too. Though its still possible maybe Jotaro was a specific inspiration in this instance since Ariga is also a manga artist, but we'll never know for sure.
Personally, I wish we had a sukeban themed pokemon.
nah, but gladion totally looks like viral
>>29176015
Jangmo-o is Wammu. Sun/Moon seem to be heavily inspired by anime so it's possible.
Lycanroc's forms are actually based on a new manga character that debuted this year:Rockruff
>>29176217
Is he going to kill Popplio?
>>29175997
Lycanroc is more likely Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde or a white wolf tengu and a werewolf.
