Weekly Animé Discussion - Chronicles #001 - 003: Legend of Thunder

this thread is to discuss and comment on the US airing of Pokemon Chronicles episodes 1 - 3 Legend of Thunder on Cartoon Network's Toonami.

I love those episodes, they are so much fun. I just wish they didn't add some of those crazy lines, and make Bashou a girl.

When were these supposed to/were be on?

They were shown last night (Saturady) on CN at 7:00 est time.

I didn't like the opening theme til when the natarator came and explain the reasons for these episodes but I like the orginal opening for the Legend of Thunder.

I thought it was okie. I mean the catch pharse was pretty nice. "You rock and you rule." That is new and fresh.

That person with the gray hair was really a guy? Still. Okie. She is a really a girl or a guy with a girly voice. Still it was nice.

I guessing it was okie with how it was done. I mean the dubbing was that bad and off right with the exception of the opening theme and that Rocket thing.

I notice we saw an old Rocket professor. Still nice.

I can't wait for the next parts of the Legend of Thunder.

I didn't watch it on Toonami but I did watch a few parts online.
I don't like Marina's voice, much.
Vincent was a pretty funny character.
It was really funny when he tried to catch Marina and she fell right on top of him. XD

I liked it, even though Jimm's hair style was weird. They could've done that better I guess. Marina's voice didn't really bother me, but I didn't like Vincent at all. He seemed to immature, and whenever I hear the name Vincent I think of Vincent Valentine...

so, let me get this straight:
"Chronicles" is what comes after Advance Battle?
Is this on Cartoon Network only?
Are these the ones with the new voices?

No, it's more like a spin-off that took place at about the beginning of Advanced: Challenge (someone correct me if I'm wrong) but just now arrived to the US.

I watched it...It's awesome!! ^_^ (jimmy though? is that really nesseary? Meh...he's cute anyway..) XD

Cartoon Network snuck in a showing of part 3 after part 2. The onscreen guide said "Dragonball Z." I'm bummed, I'll have to catch it on a rerun one day.

Well, it's interesting, to be sure, but talk about shippy...oh well. Now we move on to the next portion.

I'm amazed. The gray-haired team rocket female was actually a male? That's an interesting bit of information. I actually liked her acting, it seemed a little more cruel to me. Though I didn't really like how they could just stand and watch the others suffer and not take advantage of their situation. It would've made the action a little more interesting, I think. Also, there was a lot of Marina-Jimmy shipping hints, which for some reason bothered me. Poor Vincent...

The intro didn't exactly capture my fancy. I kind of expected a theme song and everything, but I guess that won't be the case for Chronicles. Though I have to say that I liked it. I'll be looking forward to it this weekend.

If anybody is intrested i have pokemon chronicles (legend of thunder) Parts 2 and 3 in full length, avi, high quality, 100% english.

can somone upload all 3 parts of the Legend of thunder?

More like a Marina-Jimmy shipping mallet-to-the-head. I mean, forget the little Ash&Misty/May hints--this one is blatantly obvious and pretty much unarguable. The odds of them NOT getting together is about 285087666468 to 1...

I dont think no one has legend of thunder part one because it doesnt exisit in torrents in english only part 2 and 3
