Comp. Battler Who loves The Anime
OS: This was an alright start to Ash's journey, since it managed to convey that he still has a long way to go, and it's also really funny. Definitely appreciate it a lot more than I did all those years ago. Johto's still really slow
AG: It's ok. Could be better. Had some good gym battles and character development, but in other aspects it's just...meh.
DP: Paul and Ash's rivalry is still the best rivalry we've gotten out of the anime so far, but both Ash and Brock started to feel kind of stagnant from how long they've been in the anime. Brock's goal change near the end makes sense but feels out of place for me for some reason.
BW: It's not as bad as people make it out to be, but in terms of how they handled Ash in this series..yeah, still think it's probably the worst saga we've gotten so far
XY: I thought this was a really great series at first, but although I really liked the battles and the Ash-Greninja arc, it's not as great as I thought it was initially. They built up so much hype for things, failed to give equal focus to all of the characters, pandered too much to the Amourshippers with Serena's character, and never really delivered on anything. I still like it though, it's just that I don't put it on the pedestal I used to.
S&M: Before I hated this series with all my being because I was stupid and not really open to the change in artstyle, or the tone it gave off in early episodes. The early episodes were a rocky start for the series, and not something I should have judged it on - since it still DID have time to adjust to the new environment and the changes it brought for the show. Eventually, though this series grew on me a lot since they got used to the cast size and really did have some really fun episodes and interesting plots that we wouldn't have gotten otherwise if we stuck to the formula like we did before. It's still got some bad pacing problems and I'm still disappointed in how they wasted the potential of Team Rainbow Rocket in the Necrozma arc
