Ah, nostalgia. You're like that magical mirror from Futurama that makes everything appear sexy. Except that this time, it looks the same in a normal mirror. I mean, you can see from this episode why the anime really did so well. I'm a big defender of the new series, but I guess rewatching this has reminded me that they have a point - this is, undoubtedly, the best episode of the whole anime.
Now, that's a big, sweeping statement to make so early on. But I cannot think of one single other episode with a moment quite as awesome as the climax of this episode. Anyway, below is a list of random thoughts that came to me while I was watching, my Extensive List Of Thoughts. I can assure you there will be one for each episode, if you want to watch along too.
Spoiler:
- God, I love this song
- Man, I forgot this gameboy opening. It's badass
- ...Why did we like these old voice actors?
- "Well, you must be Ash"...but weren't they meant to be childhood friends/rivals?
- I just realised that they're pronouncing Pokémon wrong....there's an ACCENT DAMMIT XD
- This is some HIGH quality animation :P
- "Electrifying personality" "Shocking, isn't it?"
- "Is your name all you can say?" - Does ash know NOTHING?
- I just realised...Pikachu's a bit of a brat XD
- Who's that Pokémon? It's Pikachu! PEEEEKKKAAA CHOWWWW!
- Since when was Sand Attack the same as Sandstorm?
- I love how even the dex is insulting Ash.
- Spearow have pretty rubbish vision.
- ...did Ash just nearly get eaten by a Gyarados?
- Hmmm....why is Misty's hand like that....like she's just slapped someone? Odd, isn't it? :P
- ....this is actually pretty epic :P
- Ah, narrator. I love having your voice tonguing my cochlea
Anyway, that's all for today, folks....I'll see you tomorrow!
