November 25th: PM2019 133 - Project Mew

[Tabasco Boshi]

It’s so anti climatic and wild that they haven’t been promoting this at all or as much as the PWC despite the narrative being this is “just as important as Ash’s goal since he’s a co protagonist”

Because even the ones who tried to artificially sell this idea of a character equal to Ash knew it was never going to work. Dawn remains the only one close to that working.

Do they think people will be watching on the streets in Japan how Goh gets Mew? Or that he'll be in regular media? Nobody in the big picture cares.

Edit: UnovaMaster angry face reaction confirms I'm right.

I'm aware of that, I was just pointing out how similar the locations looked.

Yeah, both seem to have tropical climates? XD although faraway island is in Hoenn right?

Yeah that's true, weird islands and the green stuff on the ground looks simillar to the one of Celio Island where they entered Mewtwo's room.

My brother told me that it's been 4 days and lots of people are still talking about Ash winning in his university.

Tbh I agree. I feel that even tho dawn is considered a companion. I feel that she was honestly the closest to a actual duo protagonist with Ash. Especially with how both goals and arc were written well.

Now granted comparing people watching Ash beat the pwc and people watching it to GOH is unfair. None, no matter how well they are will live up to that hype. Even dawn. Ash is 25 years working to be the strongest. GOH was never gonna compare. And this was my issue with the whole equal protagonist thing. It was hardly gonna work

Given Twitter’s current condition, enough tweets and retweets might actually break Twitter

 

[Almighty Zard]

Are people even mentally prepared for Goh to catch Mew? Journeys has bread an entire subculture of discussion on who "deserves" what and the Suicune thing is still talked about to date

I mean you look back at Regileki and not many batted an eyelash at that one, not many cared for Eternatus either because like the games it had to be detained.

Heck Grookey's obtainment is the most controversial thing he's done, even more so than Suicune

 

[Yce288]

Glad I was not the only one who thought they could use this after Ash won, but this was before we knew about the episodes after it
Now I'm not really sure

Then maybe after the Project Mew's finale when we're back to the time after Ash beat Leon.
I also hope this version of A New Beginning will be played in the last episode of Journeys:

 

[Remix2]

The co main lead only get a two parter while the main lead get 4 parter(also doesnt help that this is after the biggest battle in ash history).

Lol kinda show that the writers lost faith in him.

 

[U.N. Owen]

Most of us developed a sunk cost complex when it came to Ash winning anything.

We did not develop that same complex with Goh.

 

[STICKTOPIA]

But yes keep projecting YOUR loss of faith using information not set in stone, that's not awkward at all

Lol make sure you take that same advice for yourself if things don’t go the way you expect

 

[santiagus]

The only music I wanna hear in the anime in 2023 is the magnificent Gym Leader theme SV has.

Also no more Hillbilly Banjo catching spree music.

Cause there is not going to be more.

Lol make sure you take that same advice for yourself if things don’t go the way you expect

Don't worry. He will be to ashamed to show his face when Journeys ends.

Summary and incomplete voice cast

Oh Btw

Now offciially this episode and this series are outdated.

A new low for Journeys.

 

[Pokegirl Fan~]

Oh Btw

Now offciially this episode and this series are outdated.

A new low for Journeys.

The only way that the extra episodes are redeemable is if they focus on Ash's past companions and reserves.

Why? Journeys was never the Gen8-anime..

 

[Red and Blue]

Why? Journeys was never the Gen8-anime..

Plus even if you do consider Journeys a Gen 8 series it going past SV's launch isn't really its fault. That's due to production issues rather than the writing

We don’t know that for sure. They could have planned to go past the SV launch date.
