Why did Ash worked but Liko & Roy didn't?
>>59685514He’s not coming back
>>59685514Ash stopped working after Gen 4
>>59685534Mindless repetition in lieu of a point. Kek. Bodied yourself.
>>59685538Gen 2, you're part of the problem.>>59685514Ash came out at around the same time the franchise did.
>>59685514>anime makes changes because the company got sick of the same formula>new character doesn't do anything to improve the show
>>59685550Ash was supposed to be swapes out after winning the orange league. The thunde special was supposed to be a promo for the new era of the anime, but game freak got angry and wouldn’t allow the anime people to do so.
>>59685514Dang, why is this back again?! If it makes you fell better liko and Roy will be gone by the time winds and waves comes out, but it’s a kids TV show, it’s really not that deep, would you have watched ash for 50+ years, the answer is no
>>59685514The ashnime was already dwindling in viewership since BW. It's just animated fanfic now. It no longer has the staying presence in the IP it used to in the early gens.
>>59685557He'll never come back.>>59685567>If it makes you fell better liko and Roy will be gone by the time winds and waves comes outExcept the problem aren't Liko nor Roy.>would you have watched ash for 50+ years, the answer is noYou're kidding right?
Ash's character was completely ruined in gen 2 onwards making him a boring ageless self insert for the audience when that obviously wasn't the case in earlier episodes. He only "Worked" because of the loose idea that he *was* that scrappy little boy
Liko is hot but they made her design slightly less hot later so the rating declined
>>59685514HE'S NEVER COMING BACK
>>59685534> Naruto getting new special episodes > Kishimoto announce a new Naruto manga call Naruto Shadow Rising. ITS OVER Naruto tried to replace their icon with Boruto but the series fall apart after Naruto got sealed to the point Kishimoto disowned the series by calling it his assistant's work. The only example you had of a long running series replacing their iconic original protagonist after more than 10 years decided to bring back their original protagonist instead of carry on with a new one. There is also rumor floating over new YUGIOH remake with Yugi & Atem. If Pokemon anime tries to bring another OC as the main protagonist after the failure of Alain, Goh, Liko and Roy than there is no hope left for the series.
>>59685514I've seen this video. This video isn't even about Ash being gone, it's because the new show has shit distribution worldwide and they've already finished the main arc but the new game hasn't come yet so now it's just boring filler until the new game comes out
>>59685538Based and Truthpilled
>>59685514Here's the vid itselfhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArSPi87kzUIBeyond 2:30, he talks about other issues affecting the show's viewership beyond "Ash being gone"
>>59685514Well, Liko is a foid and Roy is a nigger
>>59685514actual answer: japans birth rate is cratering
>>59685601they announced a new movie without ash lol, pkmn is a videogame , they dont care the tranime anymore
>Cartoon Network Latam is brining back pokemon to the channel, but instead of Horizons it's JourneysLikoflop
>>59685594>slightly less hot = older than 10 years old for pedofagTypical Horizons enjoyer
since they removed ash the sales increased lol
>>59685538>>59685550Ash & TRio worked fine till all eight generation, the actual problem were the new OC after Gen 04 that the show tried to shove on people. Pokemon Journey would have been better with more screentime on Marnie and Bede instead of wasting episode after episode on Koharu and Eevee journey to find their dream.
>>59685640And people already hates it.
>>59685658they really dont care the anime, it makes no money compared vidoegames, merch and tcg
>>59685658Rica Matsumoto was stealing money from them; I’m not surprised.
>>59685538Ash should have been taken out back with a shotgun after the Johto series
A sequels to XY&Z where Ash travels with Brock & Serena to find a way to erase the remaining Dark Vines would have more interesting than the entire main story of Horizons. Especially if Serena gets a new hairstyle with even bustier figure and a new personality to develop a natural chemistry with Ash who reverts back to his OS-DP personality.Because people give more dam about Amourshipping than the entire story revolving Rakulium, Liko & Amethio's magic bloodline, Roy's goal to catch Rayquaza and Navi's wanting a dream.
because digimon is better
>>59685514While 90% of the Ashnime episodes were random character of the week, at least it showed all the characters from the game and even fleshing out some of them. Horizons is 100% focusing on their OCs nobody cares about and ignoring popular characters like Kieran.
>>59685514liko works for my dickthe gook and indian do not
its not only liko the problem, nupokemon is fucking dogshit , new pokemon are ugly shit, new character designs look like troons, the art is bad and cheap etc..except jouneys is when everything went to shit
>>59685715*ash had luck exceot journeys
>>59685514Nostalgiatards remembering the ashnime as better than it was. As soon as the source of their nostalgia left, they saw the anime for what it always was: boring, formulaic monster of the week dogshit with bad writing, flat characters, and ugly visuals.
>>59685601You say that when Digimon had their remake, people shit on it.
>>59685715
>>59685575It's always been "dwindling in viewership". DP performed worse than AG too, and AG performed worse than OS. Live television viewing in general has dropped all over the line.
