I've been watching the new Unova saga in English, and I'm having a VERY hard time believing that this is the same Ash that was in Kanto...
Let me explain:
Ash in the Kanto saga was ambitious in a serious way.
In Unova, Ash is ambitious in an embarrassingly confident way.
This isn't exactly what I'd call character development... more like a change in personality.
Example:
We first see Ash in his room. He clenches his fist, makes a serious face and says: "Yes! I am Ash!"
In the newer series, I can't imagine Ash having that kind of attitude.
We first see Ash in his room in Unova. He's acting confident and happy in a childish way.
Ash used to take training seriously. (ex: Using the water wheel to power Pikachu up)
Now he treats it like a fun, childish game...
This is why I'm having a hard time relating Unova Ash to Kanto Ash. =/
(yes, PKMN TRNG IS SRS BUSINESS XD)
