Dawn/Hikari
 
who else like or hate dawn?

GymLeaderMisty November 27th, 2009 7:19 PM

I just dislike Dawn because she is not Kasumi/Misty.

StarGirl November 27th, 2009 7:50 PM

I never dislike Dawn/Hikari cause I am so obessed with Dawn

GlitchCity November 28th, 2009 6:23 AM

I dont hate her, but I dont like her. Shes better in the jap. episodes

Superficial Mycosis November 28th, 2009 6:54 AM

She's kinnda cute.. but whiney.
I only really started liking her at all when I got into Appealshipping. Zoey seems to make her less irritating, I have no idea how, but kudos to her for it =P
I guess it's kinnda understandable but.. sometimes you just want her to shush <<;

mondays suck November 28th, 2009 7:14 AM

I don't watch the Anime, so for me she's just there, i neither like nor hate her.

StarGirl November 28th, 2009 7:15 AM

yes wisely she kinda cute girl

Semidos November 28th, 2009 2:02 PM

Frankly... I really don't like her. She makes me nervous. She is too cute. She makes everything to be super, perfect, cute model. I just hate little, stupid, cute, barbies. I hate such girls. For example Misty isn't cute, but she is beautiful, naturally beautiful, with good character.

Yes. I agree.

Kotone November 28th, 2009 2:07 PM

i don't hate Dawn, but she's not my favorite.
so that's all i have to say.
^_^

Giratina ♀ November 28th, 2009 2:15 PM

She's pretty nice. She has a decently developed personality and seems to be able to react to bad situations realistically (Mini BSOD after the Contest fiasco, anyone?). Plus she's actually endurable when she's acting cheery, something May can't quite claim.

Narrow-minded, much?

ShadowYashi November 28th, 2009 2:59 PM

I second that narrow-minded statement.
That's just plain rude >:C

So what if she's not Kasumi.
If she were just like Kasumi, then all we'd hear from fan's like instead of this, is that Hikari is nothing but a cheap imitation and a Kasumi wannabe! Kasumi's beautiful and Hikari's cute? Umm their like perpetually 10 until the writers say so. So Hikari's a bit more childish in appearance and she wears a short skirt so what? Their two different people, no two people look alike! ecept for twins, but even then, their different. Kasumi walked around for three seasons in nothing but a pair of daisy dukes, a shirt, sneakers and suspenders but Hikari is the one who gets called out on being *censored* or whatever because her skirt stops at her hips.

I like Hikari. I like Kasumi and I like Haruka.
All three are great characters in my opinion none of them is better than the other.
I just don't get why fans just have to isolate themselves to one character and then bash the other.
If you don't like her, then you don't like her, but not liking her for her looks or what she wears or how she trains, it just seems retarded. I could see if you didn't like her because of her personality, but not liking Hikari because she's not Kasumi is extremely shallow.

Lol, nice speech. This thread is to say what you think and feel. I said what I feel and that's all.

PS. It's hard to not bashing in threads like this.

Heather November 28th, 2009 4:42 PM

I think shes cute. In my opinion she looks better than May but I like May better. PErsonality wise I dont like Dawn. Shes just not like May lol. Im so descriptive :/

Giratina ♀ November 28th, 2009 5:11 PM

I didn't mean to pick a fight by saying that, but not really liking a character because you refuse to let go of Misty/Kasumi is pretty narrow-minded in my opinion. Why? Are you just beng clingy and silently cursing all other female characters because clearly they will never live up to the legacy of the girl with the sideways ponytail?

I am attached with these females characters although I do not watch alot of anime...

Misty
Aki Izayoi
Mai Kujaku


Misty is a highly developed character and I liked her. I suppose she breaks the mold of other female anime characters (Weedle talks about the female anime stereotype) as she does not have large breasts or cleavage (the latter two do) (Also Dawn/Hikari doesn't.)

Misty is not overly feminine, nor she is trying to be a tom-boy.

StarGirl November 28th, 2009 6:24 PM

anyway....Dawn is really totally girly in pokemon world

Azumi November 28th, 2009 7:26 PM

(Why does the poll NOT give me a neutral choice?!)

I don't mind her.
She's got good character development and stuff, but her whiney personality gets to me.
Also she has a Piplup- *shot'd*

I think the poll is badly constructed so I didn't vote. I do not like Hikari/Dawn that much, but I would not call her ugly which was the only negative option in the poll.

I just do not like girly, girly... I do not like Mimi in Digimon (who was more of a girly, girly), but I liked Sora's motherly and nuturing influence.

DonRoyale November 28th, 2009 10:36 PM

I just dislike her because she's a ridiculous fanservice character like May. Unlike May, she doesn't have a decent team. And unfortunately, she has a very tired old catchphrase. She's frankly been on my nerves for quite some time.

I hate to jump on bandwagons--it's not my style--but ffs, just bring Misty back. >_>

StarGirl November 28th, 2009 10:47 PM

come on guys...don't hate Dawn,she just a girl ya
also she isn't A RIDICULOUS GIRL

>Feelings< November 28th, 2009 11:15 PM

I'm neutral towards her. Don't know enough, so can't say more than.

Ineffable~ November 28th, 2009 11:50 PM

Hey come on guys Dawn is cute. T^T
I like Haruka, Kasumi, and Hikari. There's really no need to hate on any one of them, really. And I don't mind Dawn being feminine at all <3

Very nicely put. d(''d)

It really isn't. Just say you dislike Dawn and why. For example, "I don't like Dawn because she's just too peppy for my taste. :("
Not "ZOmG sHE's sO tARdED desU MiSTY's wAY bETTeR <33333333 DAWN SUCKS OMG I HATE HER".
Not saying your post was like that, of course. You get my point. ;3

Jorah November 29th, 2009 4:03 AM

There's nothing wrong with being a girly girl, it may be a trait you dislike, which is fine, but the way some people act, they make it seem as though being a girly girl is something that *deserves* to be hated >_> That isn't really directed at anyone, it's just something I've seen around this forum lately which has irked me.

There are many different female anime stereotypes. Misty, in the first series at least, seems to be the tsundere stereotype http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Tsundere
Jessie's sort of more of the extreme version though, I think.
