I don't know why people say XY Anime is awesome. Really. I'm on episode 28 and Ash is still on the road for his third badge. In Best Wishes he was like, five episodes earlier. Stop all those fillers, please. Since Johto/Hoenn there're so much filler episodes in this shit.

I don't know why Team Rocket became so stupid again. Best wishes made them a lot better because they tried actual and somewhat complex plots, like when Meowth pretended he was kicked from the team and Meloetta arc. This time, they just want to get Pikachu all over again. This is pretty annoying.

And I can't stand Clemont with his inventions. His background episode was OK, but his catchphrase "The future is now, thanks to science!" and then the running gag of all his inventions exploding are pretty boring.

The only think I like in XY is Bonnie. She's like Max done right.

I don't like the experience of this anime. Does it gets better?

This. Why they just gave Ash a Pokémon that can actually mega evolve? He already has Charizard and his Heracross, Glalie, Sceptile, can all Mega Evolve too.

The sad thing is GF is teasing it in games just because of this shitty anime.

OP here. I really liked some of them, like the Malamar one and when Team Rocket disguised themselves like Ash and friends, but the amount of fillers in this series is comparable to late Johto, with all the Larvitar stuff.

The XY anime doesn't get decent until just before the 3rd badge, and it doesn't get good until after the 4th badge.

Literally the only good thing about this show. Unless you're a shipperfag or an Ashfag.

It's the reason I can't wait for the league to be over so we can have the climax of Team Flare's arc. I expect some The Iron Giant shit with her and Puni-chan.

But the fillers are the best part? Every Bonnie episode, most of the musicals, Ash getting sick, Alain vs Ash, tons of other episodes that I'm forgetting

You know Ash wins his gym battles and they're always against pokemon that you've already seen used by characters you already know. Where's the excitement in watching content that you've already seen play out again? Its like watching an anime adaptation of a manga you've already completed.

I'll say it right now, DP is not nearly as good as everyone says it is. TG and Paul only make up a small fraction of it. It's a massive waste of time to watch it for any reason.

I don't care about fillers. The problem here is the fillers sucks. Best Wishes fillers are pretty good, like when Axew got kidnapped by niggers. The same goes to Battle Frontier.

The original music is used poorly in most instances.

Like battle music during a ballroom dance? What the fuck, Anime? How do these things go together?

DP is still best overall of course

Wow. I don't know how you could get tired of Eureka. She's too lovable and far more tolerable than most of the other travel companions Ash has had.

It's a shame the anime is just a glorified commercial, would love to see an epilogue of Pokemon Trainer Eureka with her Dedenne/Tyrantrum/Lapras/Hippowdon/Meowstic/Zygarde going on an adventure.

>>
>>26835642
It's bad that they change the music, and the voice acting is pretty shit, but shitty English voice acting is better than high-pitched Jap voice acting that you can't even understand unless you devoted months to learning the language.

A bad dub is always better than no dub, UNLESS they cut out episodes or change major plot elements, and the Ashnime doesn't have a plot that you haven't already seen 5 times.

Dub: The future is now, thanks to science!

Sub: It's time for science to open up the future!

The difference is minuscule.

For reference, AG kicks in at 13 when May finally has her plot, and DP is generally believed to kick in at 34 or close to it.

BW started out fine (unless the sassy brown loli and the snivy battle really triggered you), but then got fucked over by the earthquake and then again due to BW2 forcing the writers to change pretty much everything they were trying to do in the beginning.

In the end, Season 2 ended up being a mess, Episode N was decent bu very anticlimatic, and DA was completely pointless.

In any case, Georgia was best girl.

Well I can't, and I'm not the only one since I've heard other people make the argument. I cannot distinguish good Jap acting from bad Jap acting, it's all high-pitched squealy garbage. Sometimes with male characters I can find myself liking the tone of a character's voice, but I don't know anything else about the voice, they could be bombing and I wouldn't know it.

What's the point in wasting time watching 100+ episodes of a below average show like Pokemon that only serves as advertisement for the games when you can just be playing the game or watching something decent?
>>
>>26836547
>I cannot distinguish good Jap acting from bad Jap acting
Of course you don't. Nobody becomes sufficiently knowledgeable about something right from the beginning, unless they're some kind of genius. It's possible that you simply haven't heard truly awful or truly great voice acting.

My point is that it's retarded to say you need to learn japanese to recognize good or bad voice acting in that language. What you need is just watch more anime or japanese dubs.
>>
>>26836665
Not to mention anime japanese sounds completely different from real life japanese

>>26835319

>that you can't even understand unless you devoted months to learning the language.

that's what subs are for retard
>>
>>26836989
I'm talking about the quality of the acting, not the actual translation.

Yeah, the subs will tell you what you're saying, but the audio is still chingchongnipnong. I'd rather listen to a bad dub where I can better understand the tone and inflection than watch something subbed. If there's no alternative I can watch a sub okay, but a dub gives you everything a sub does with you being able to understand the actors. The only reason to pick the sub over the dub is the music.

>voice acting is only sound, tone and inflection
Yeah my dude, because an actor/actress being able to properly convey emotions is completely irrelevant, am I right?
>>
>>26837163
Isn't emotion part of tone? I'm not a director, I might be using the wrong terms.
>>
>>26837182
Not really. I wouldn't call someone bawling, screaming or laughing just variations on the tone of their voices, for example. And being able to do those shits convincingly is necessary if you want to be a decent voice actor.
>>
>>26837267
>shits
I have no idea how that word appeared there. I don't even remember typing it. What the fuck

Because you watch the shitty ass dub, don't understand a 150 episodes series contains filler and too stupid to use a filler guide.

>>26836483
That's a real shame. It had a super strong start. And that's more or less all I saw of it. So I hold Best Wishes in high regard
