October 28th: PM2019 130 - The Finals II: Toying

[Eevee903]

When you just beat number two there probably is some sense of accomplishment.. Also, he already beat three champions in this tournament. If he's not confident now he simply never will be.

Fair point.

All those breaks and recaps made me so apathetic that I really won't care much whether Ash wins or not. Just want this series to be over.

Me too lol. Horrible.

 

[UnovaMaster]

Good for you both, and then when SV has breaks every week you'll be wishing we were at the climax of a series instead of on the slow first year of a series

 

[DayQuil95]

the Champions league never sounded to be a champion where tournaments competed

Sinnoh League and Alola League competing in the finals so they can battle Leon.

I think somehow this might be a scenario where Mega Lucario is used vs Mega Charizard will happen, but Mugendaina will be used and it will trigger Pikachu to Dynamax somehow? It sort of gives me like we will see a repeated experience of the Champion battle in Aloha

Me Too! with my tired voice, Journeys made me less confident so I don't need another Journeys on my hand so It's better for them to put it to rest and take a hiatus so There is more room for Yo-kai watch or maybe like Digimon.

I'm curious if Yo-kai watch or any similar Monster franchise attracted more attention or no.

Very happy that they are going all out animation wise. If there’s one battle where they had their best all hands on deck I’m glad it’s this one.

 

[Dragalge]

Wow! A battle about toys!

 

[Eevee903]

It would be surreal to see all the companions at one place lol. It is like childhood dream come true,if its really happening.

 

[Evstike]

Staff lists look average so far, with this one likely being the most underwhelming in the visual department. Hoping for a part 4 where they go all out.

I doubt there will be a part 4 tbh.

It is indeed a dream wanted for this moment in ash's final battle

 

[Eevee903]

If I had to guess, the structure of Ash vs Leon will be similar to Ash vs Cynthia with each having three episodes and Ash being at the disadvantage at the start.

I am looking foward to it tho! Give me companions,a good battle and this can be a great battle already.

I mean that's the standard structure of the latest PWC matches with Ash so it's not too hard to predict

I have a feeling Ash will start strong against Leon (Similar to the Alain fight), actually surprising him. Unlike Cynthia who took Ash seriously and came into the match like a Challenger; I don't think Leon is going to be that serious going into the fight. I think Ash will start strong and probably get the first win (Surprising Leon), which forces him to get serious and then dominate the next section of the fight.

If there is a 4th part then core staff wise the battle will be very similar to VS Kukui with Shinohara being in charge of the 2nd ep and Iwane of the 3rd and some freelancers probably going off for the final (we have to see Yusuke Oshida somewhere). Toshihito Hirooka could be a good sign for the first episode, that guy is a super rare so at least he should have had the time to go all out (not that he's ever been the craziest sakuga wise but his art is very polished, fits the companion/rival appearances).

He did work on episodes like XY's finale or the SM starter trio one, which both had some really impressive cuts (though there were a few other directors in XY's finale)

 

[mehmeh1]

Wasn't just the final move in Kukui's battle that looked far better than the "meh" stuff prior it, though.

Naganadel and the regular Pika vs Koko part still had a lot of great cuts, and both Iwane's episode and the first part too. Part 2 (the one supervised by the team supervising this episode) was the one that didn't look all that impressive, and was pretty stiff relatively.
