Yea they need to release that BW OTS asap. That series has one of the best composed music and it shows because they're still spamming the Black and White title screen almost a decade later

Award for the most based comment of the year.

Btw, Summerly Slope is underrated, specially coming from BW
Summerly Slope being underrated is true for the entire DA arc anyway I’m not even joking. People need to lowkey turn their brains off and just enjoy the dumb yet interesting filler, even if yes, Ash’s Unova team did basically nothing for a whole year. It would have been improved if they did a little tournament arc, one more Don Battle

Proper summary:

It's the greatest hour ever, raising the roof with Pokémon and music!
One after another, the extravagant artists that have sung theme songs in the past will be appearing in the studio!
And a certain artist will also give us the first ever performance of the opening theme for the new series that's on everyone's minds!

Well at least this means it’s not going to be just rica. Let’s see if the song selection ends up being good.

Man if there’s one time for them not go into OS bias it’s this. Early songs aside from mesaze and OK were pretty meh.

Now that's just not true. There's some good OPs and EDs in OS, I wouldn't be surprised if we got a Maemuki Rocket-Dan or a Rocket Dan yo Eien ni performance.

Lmao.

Claiming OS has good songs and the proceeding to bring out two bad ones.

That's 100% just some opinion based nonsense so I'm not sure what response you even respect. Regardless, Hirokazu Tanaka's songs have always been good for as long as he worked on the show. Disliking Team Rocket doesn't make you special.

Press release, with a proper overview of what the special will contain:
Well that pretty much confirms that Liko is the main protagonist here lol. The fact that Roy basically made a cameo in the trailers so far told us this but the opening theme being about her confirms it to me.

Also Dephender not sure where else to ask this, is this post from the anipoke twitter account hinting that Ash is going to back in some form later??
