    Pokemon Heroes: The Black & White Chapter One (All Ages)

    Chapter 6: Double Your Trouble Getting off the blanket barefoot, Hilda stepped onto the grass a decent ten feet away into the wider wood clearing. She stopped to mark her position on what she envisioned as the battlefield to be and glanced back at her mother with brief concern. Part of Hilda...

    Things the next Anime could do to improve upon the last.

    That is, while the next Anime and protagonists have a lot to live up to, I feel there are some aspects of Pokemon's Anime that could do with a bit of ironing out. What are your's? Please be nice...

    Pokemon Heroes: The Black & White Chapter One (All Ages)

    Chapter 5: Little White (& Blue) Lies Helga smiled back. "I know, I know," Hilda sighed wearily, holding up her hands in defense. "I haven't exactly been around lately but getting the written test down was a pain and a half." She whistled from just remembering how she nearly cramped her hand...

    Pokemon Heroes: The Black & White Chapter One (All Ages)

    Chapter 4: All In The Family Oshawott hit the mud face-first after a nasty Tail Slap across the cheek. He barely got up to spit out the dirty water and looked up at Hilda pleadingly. [I... can still... fight,] Oshawott swore up and down desperately only to be met with a rather blank look from...

    Pokemon Heroes: The Black & White Chapter One (All Ages)

    Chapter 3: Silly Stick In The Muds "Where's Grandpa Cedric?" Hilda managed to speak while stuffing another helping of Spaghetti in her mouth. "He's totally missing out on this killer spread." "Killer" was an understatement. To Hilda's left were bowls of a variety of pastas that Aurea cooked to...

    Pokemon Heroes: The Black & White Chapter One (All Ages)

    Chapter 2: Just For Starters The Junipers' brown house with the blue roof had finally came into view. It had felt like an eternity by the time Hilda bounded through her front yard and reach the front door's steps. She took a minute to lean on her knees and pant like a Herdier playing catch...

    Pokemon Heroes: The Black & White Chapter One (All Ages)

    Pokemon and Trainer alike start their story off on a rough patch. Things can only go up from here... hopefully. Chapter 1: The Start of Something Big Despite his best efforts, Oshawott felt pins and needles all over when he stepped forward from Professor Aurea Juniper and onto the...

    Good arc, lacking game

    Specifically in terms of how they carry over concepts from the games into their own narrative, resulting in what's honestly outshone its source material. There's a real element of danger in the XY Chapter. Particularly with the quintet being forced from their homes rather than voluntarily take...

    How many dubs have you seen in the last half decade? How many actually "insult their audience" outside of what you put forward? C'mon, man. You're smarter than this.

    "they never aimed the jokes at their audience" If their audience members were any of those they insulted, I'd beg to differ. Plus, Prison School and Hajimete No Gal in particular aren't exactly glowing examples of Otaku culture to begin with. They are very explicit jabs at nerds and geeks...

    I'm not "excusing" anything. I think those lines should've been left on the cutting room floor. Rather, I'm trying to have some perspective here. Are these examples really indicative of modern translation practices? Or are they just more of the same polarizing aspects of adapting Anime into the...

    Hell, the whole "Gamergate" thing was a tasteless joke in a tasteless Anime. Did you even watch Prison School? It's whack enough already. Overall, you're really being intellectually dishonest with me. You haven't even answered my questions.

    Now as to the politics inserted into the show... I've seen worse. I mean, the most you get is this one mention of "patriarchal" in Dragon Maid in this ten second scene. Nothing more, nothing less. It's jarring but I cannot see the deal breaking aspect to it when compared to the overall dub's...

    This is a Harem-Ecchi comedy that features the main character trying to get with a girl because she looks like a slut and simply wants that "sweet, sweet ass." On top of that, his Otaku BFFs are each unapologetic in their perversion with Minoru being an out and out pedophile. This show is...

    Now, by insulting fans, I'm going to assume you're referring to Hajimete No Gal's scene in Episode Seven where a sleazy manager is called out on his perversion. Except... that's kind of what happened in the original. Now granted, the whole "SJW" buzzwords sprinkled in wasn't in good taste... but...

    "but they still never assumed the viewer's politics or insulted them with petty name-calling." You... didn't watch Ghost Stories, did you? I mean, Momoko is nothing but a Republican punching bag in the dub. They never talk smack about Democrats.

    Also... "agenda pushing?" Those lines are barely ten seconds long. What's to push aside from a bad joke that made me roll my eyes?
