Hell no, there is no positive for me. Journey's battle animation has been atrocious compared to the last two seasons, no reserves, 3v3s, and we already know that the matchups mean nothing because Ash is guaranteed to battle Leon. The only thing that might generate an iota of hype out of me would be Ash vs Cynthia.

I am definitely hyped to see this series end though :)

It depends now, the expectations have now been swifted. I’m now more interested in individual character interactions, the composed music that will be played, Iris’/Cynthia’s/Steven’s last Pokémon. and the Garchomp vs Haxorus rematch. So nothing really about the actual battling of the tournament itself or at least not heavy hype placed on it
 

DuquÊ?

Too lazy to pick a pic
Give me Ash vs Cynthia, a good and well animated battle, and I could consider the whole thing saved.

Of course, that's an optimistic statement, I'm not actually expecting a good battle. Or a well animated one.

Aside from that Leon, the PWC seems interesting to me.
Now we have 3 weeks without Pokemon anime news or episodes.. =[

I wonder if the Masters 8 will battle it out for their final rankings. Since Alain lost, did he fall in rank? If so, I am sure everyone who loses in the QFs will drop some ranks. That sucks for the top 3.
That may improve the hype. If it does not happen, still no hype.

I wish there was a 50/50 option. I am hyped in a sense but I am still very disappointed in the missed opportunities here.

I guess the Each ‘Mon getting 2 battles seems very likely:

Ash VS Steven: Pikachu, Gengar, ?(Sirfetch’d)

Ash VS Cynthia: Dragonite, Dracovish, ?(Lucario)

Ash VS Leon: Pikachu, Dragonite, Gengar, Lucario, Sirfetch’d, Dracovish

I really hope Semis are 6v6. Quarters not being 6v6 is enough of a crime...

After watching all of Round 1, I don't feel any real excitement. Same can be said for Sun and Moon for me, but the exhibition battle was some of the best and most hype scenes in anime history. Don't have high hopes, but don't mind being pleasantly surprised at the end.

I felt like Kalos was really hype throughout the entire tournament and really recognized Ash as the person to watch. I don't feel that here. If anything, it feels forced.

At this pace it feels like a drag, why couldn’t they listen to Tomiyasu and just show the Ash battles, uuuuuugh *huge tired sigh*
