Ash Ketchum!
Pokemon Trainer
When will retards
Always classy.
realize that pokemon has always adhered to what’s popular in japan? A shitton of anime have referenced the titanic, batman, clint eastwood and foghorn. The great gatsby is as obscure as the bhagavad gita over there. They are not going to reference what never made it big in their country…..
Great Gatsby movie adaptation with Leonardo DiCaprio did pretty decently in Japan, as did the one with Robert Redford. They even have the Gatsby hair wax product (founded by Japanese businessmen, named after the book) which does well. Shouldn't your wannabe weaboo ass know that?
And the idea that something touching on American themes can't somehow resonate internationally is really condescending - look at the popularity of Twin Peaks in Japan.
Let's say the green lights at the dock with the boat is one giant coincidence, and that The Great Gatsby has zero presence in Japan (because people can't somehow read/consume non-native media). Let's say it didn't reference or take inspiration from it in any shape or form in terms of imagery.
What do you think the show was going for? If things in the final 4 episodes aren't to your desire, are you going to lash out at us "retards" and seething like you've already been doing?
No wonder they call it this place le pokemon aneurysm discussion….
