Why is Rinka such a qt?
looks interesting, but I don't speak Japanese
>>33390768
Most of us don't. It's relatively simple to follow and those that do know nip occasionally explain what's going on if things get a bit obscure. Give it a try.
>>33390743
Because she's in love? Or something.
>>33390821
What's so fun about it, desu? Isn't it supposed to be a show for 8-10 year old kids?
>inb4 pokémon is a kids game
>>33390850
Because the player makes cute remarks that are only better than your average "lets plays" because he's not screaming them.
Since most here have only little knowledge of japanese, you will laugh at the simplest things in order to fit in and watch a man play Pokemon badly.
thats it
>>33390934
If you've never watched the show, stop acting like you have.
>>33390850
These Trade Journey episodes involve two of the hosts traveling around a Japanese city, checking out various tourist spots, talking with people and ultimately try to complete the entire Alola Pokedex purely through Pokemon people trade them. It's comfy.
>>33390938
I did, it's tedious. Especially if you don't know japanese.
>>33390956
This post >>33390934 was not written by somebody that has ever watched the show. It doesn't describe Pokenchi in the slightest.
Why are you in this thread if you neither like nor watch the show anyway?
>>33390956
I don't know what show you watched, but no episode of Pokenchi has ever involved a person just playing a Pokemon game and commenting on it. Whatever you saw wasn't this.
>>33390850
It's a Pokemon-themed variety show where various celebrities promote currently relevant Pokemon material in entertaining ways. Not that much more to say about it. Many find it entertaining because that's what it is.
>>33390709
Why the fuck is the filename the same every fucking week? Is "main.png" the only thing you can come up with?
>>33391161
I assume it's a standard format from somewhere or other?
>>33391169
>standard format
It's literally just a screenshot taken from the YouTube preview.
>>33391239
It's from here. Hence the filename:

One hour till showtime.
>>33391302
And 30 minutes till princesses.
>>33391313
Honestly, I don't give a shit about the princesses. I just want qt Shokos, Rinkas, etc.
>>33391320I mostly only give a shit about Amber, but she's thankfully back next week. But it's still an okay enough show to have on in the background.
Post Rinkas.
>>33391399
I still love how they actually referenced the similarity.
>>33391407
>screenshot from livestream with TV/PC colorspace issue
Here, let me help you out with that.
>>33391420
I just grabbed it off the archive right now. But thanks.
Not totally on-topic, but does anyone else get serious pedo vibes from the singer when watching the music video for the current Oha theme song?
>>33391451
Not really?
>>33391461
I find him to be kind of creepy. Between the clothes that look straight out of 1985 and the weird "dad dancing" he does, I'm creeped the fuck out.
It's time!
>>33391469
I think it's just his style, anon. I've never heard of the dude, but I think he's reasonably well known.
Monkey!
>stream is being a shit again
Fuck everything
>>33391518
Which stream?
>>33391565
Artv. It lags for a second or so every minute or so, so it's still watchable.
Why does Cinderella look so lewd?
>>33391327
It's TIME!
It's time.
Why is Rinka so qt?
184 Pokemon left to collect.
>>33391694
Because she's in lovewith Shoko.
"Sasakama-kan" is apparently a museum showcasing how Sasakamaboko is made.
Sounds weird.
This place is cool as fuck.
What IS Sasakama? Fish cakes?
They meet a number of kids that have Pokemon games, but none of them brought it with them.
>>33391716
Whatever it is, Abareru seemed to like it? If I understood it properly, that is.
Abareru-kun is bullying kids now? Mean.
>>33391716

Sasa Kamaboko
Miyagi
Grilled fish cake in the shape of bamboo leaf, good for snacks and nibbles
Sasa Kamaboko
Sasa Kamaboko is one of the local specialties of Miyagi, named after the bamboo leaf design in the family crest of the Date clan, who ruled the Sendai Domain. People of the region had a custom of making white meat fish paste into small patties using their hands, and grill them for preservation. This is said to be the origin of today’s Sasa Kamaboko. Grilled until it is golden brown, Sasa Kamaboko is crisp yet soft inside, easy to eat for snacks and nibbles as it is individually packaged. Nowadays, new flavours have been added to the variety - cheese, Shiso herb, and smoked. It is fun to experience the difference in flavours of each brand.
Jolteon getto.
>>33391727
>Rinka just stands there awkwardly
I wish she'd be more active and have a more distinctive personality. She feels too much like a background character.
>>33391748
Abareru-kun is a professional comedian, so I guess it's to be expected.
Did he just get a single Pokemon from that museum?
I want tomeetthat mom.
I wish they'd have shown more of that place, it was pretty cool.
And here's Pokemon Center Tohoku, where Abareru-kun is playing to playing a prank on people.
>>33391760
Two.
>>33391748
The only purpose of women is to be background decoration.
>>33391775
These schematics always crack me up.
>>33391778
77 pls.
Simple enough plan. He'll paint himself as a statue and then scare people by showing he's really alive by moving.
Rinka's new outfit does things to me.
>>33391787
>she sees your dick
So his goal is to sit like this for 5 minutes without moving a muscle.
>>33391787
>"Mission Impossible" theme plays in the background
It's just a prank, for god's sake.
Looks like hat-kun realized what was going on.
People are on to him.
>everyone had exposed him already
Trading time, then.
>>33391812
Oh well, it was fun anyway.
Hnngh those legs.
Dude's a pretty good artist.
>>33391820Censored.
>>33391824
>looks like a grandpa and his granddaughter
Ha
21 Pokemon total in Sendai.
>Pokken battle
That game is not possible to make look good on TV.
>>33391837
177 to go...
>>33391830
Uncensored >>33391814
mmm, ice cold noodles
also this is Japan af
>>33391846
Yeah, but that one doesn't have Rinka smiling.
See, this is the kind of stuff they SHOULD show in the episode itself.
>>33391853
Are you talking about Rinka's legs, or something else?
>>33391850
Pretty sure those games got American releases back in the NES days.
>>33391854
The fish device thing, of course.Nothing wrong with Rinka's legs, though
Pokken time.
All three had to stare at Abareru-kun, and the last to laugh would end up battling him.
Okay, then, t's a battle of the bros.
This match is fucking impossible to follow. I hate Pokken.
So this show just this guy making faces?
Place your bets.
>>33391878
Abareru-kun 1, Hyadain 0.
>>33391886
This particular episode was largely focused on his regular subsegment. Other episodes focus on other things.
>>33391894
1-1.
Are the girls going to battle now?
Based Hyadain.
Place your be-
Shoko already won
This game is impossible to follow.
>>33391910
Jesus Christ, Shoko, calm the fuck down, it's just one battle.
>>33391910
That was a given.Rinka still a cute, even if she's a loser

True enough.
>>33391937
>Kasuga
MUH
>>33391886
Was this your first time watching? What did you think?
>>33391948
And these totally straight guys too.
Not sure what they're even doing here. Holding their breath under water?
Next episode looks homo as hell.
>>33391982
Good.
>>33391855
The first one got released in burgerland under the name R.B.I. Baseball.
>>33391926
She's my loser
>>33391937
>>33391959
Why does Baron keep showing up in episodes? Dude must really love Pokemon.
>>33393381
How many times has he been on now, like 4?
