    Pokemon XY's rating

    Coming back from a dreadful university day, but there are the updated TV Ratings (from XY060 onwards). XY053: Serena gets serious! The wild Meeckle race: 3,7% (out of top 10) XY054: Kojirou and Maaiika: A bond that saves the world: 3,3% (out of top 10. Christmas-holiday-induced low rating. So...

    What kind of Ash do you want?

    So you want a Naruto post war skill level character with Vegeta and 12 ys old Naruto's worst character traits incarnated into Satoshi. So, a jerk***, arrogant, overly impulsive, prone to anger outbursts, butt monkey, retard-level dense and... well, all of the worst traits from Vejita. Forgot to...

    Will Ash Utilize Mega-Evolution?

    It seems it's a fact Satoshi would recieve a Mega Shinka. But not only him... Serena's gonna recieve a Mega shinka pokemon too... that's because new merchandising announced (and pretty much merchandising foreshadows items and new Pokemons). From 4chan's Pokeani thread Bolded part says about...

    The games would still be relevant (Pokemon stores in Japan sell mostly merchandising from the games and TCG), bcuz the franchise (Vgames and TCG's) demographics is pandering towards the Seinen group (>17 - 24 years old). The anime is technically in an uncertain status cuz of the stubborness of...

    Funny because Youkai Watch is a more formulaic, gag-abusive and childlish anime regarding plot. It's at the same category as Doraemon and Soreike! Anpanman regarding storyline (or lack of). The only series who have storyline and surpasses XY are everyone shounen series like Detective Conan...

    That's pretty much a rumor. It's been seen Pokemon games doesn't need of the anime to get more sales. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And the failure route...

    Pokemon XY's rating

    It's more about mkt revenues than ratings. However since 2013's summer in Japan, there were signs that Pokemon was fading too strongly in Japan. According to 2 surveys: Video Research (videor.co.jp) (yeah, the company that provides tv ratings in Japan) Video Research's X-Mas 2012 favorite...

    Actually, Numelgon is a pseudo legendary because it has base status of 600 (similar to Kairyuu, Bangiras, Bohmander, Metagros, Gaburias and Sazandra). But compared to others, it's advantages are in the high defense and sp. attack. So, given that they are hyping things for the 1st pseudo...

    Yeah, @Eureka (or may i say, Eievui-Nymphia). The birthrate is another factor, but another one (and is one that may piss off every pokefan and make them hate YW franchise if that comes to USA) is that, according to japanese preschoolers and primary students, Pokemon is dying down because of its...

    Keep on mind Japanese system (very similar to the system Chile uses) doesn't count DVR recordings (and even with that, Pokemon would be still flopping becuse it isn't even a top 20 recorded series. Sazae-San and One Piece are the most recorded series on DVR boxes in Japan), Video Research only...

    Pokemon XY's rating

    Sorry to burst your bubble, but the Star Trek of Japan is Kidou Senshi Gundam franchise. Yeah, it had very poor ratings on it's debut (5% in 1979 was pretty much an absolute and freaking loss of money for anime producers in 70'/80's, top 10 anime were on the 40%-20% range in early 80's, and in...

    Pokemon XY's rating

    Reality was becasue Pokemon was the hot thing in Japan those years. Sat. TV wasn't still as massive as right now and one seg television and stream sites were just a dream. It has nothing to do with the gag and slapstick comedy nature of Original Series. DP and BW (S1) had 9 - 7% because of the...
