Have you noticed...
 
...That Ash seems to be a lot meaner to May than he was Misty? ^_^; It's usually when she comments on something; he'll turn around and give her a rude look, then make an even ruder comment back. I think it's because he misses Misty. What do you think?

Sayuri no Hoshi February 21st, 2004 8:21 AM

OMG! I've noticed that, too, Kayleigh! Like on this morning's episode she was sitting down and she said something about Ash's training, and he turned around and yelled at her saying that Pokemon Contests aren't so easy, either. ^_^;; Maybe it's payback for all the times Brock and Misty tormented him when he was just starting out as a trainer...history repeats itself, huh? Even BROCK, Mr. Nice Guy, lol, was rude to her. She did this dance when she tried showing off her Pokemon Contest moves and he's all like, "Well, I don't think the judges are going to appreciate you dancing all over the stage..." *hisses at Brock* Sheesh! Ash and Brock are so irritable, lol.

Greed February 21st, 2004 9:45 AM

OMG! Is he? I never noticed! That mean, dirty, little rat!!! How dare he be sooo rude to Haruka D<

*Dies*

Imakuni? February 21st, 2004 11:10 AM

I think it is becuz he has brock and max... i mean 3 guys and 1 girl... look at that fact that its also 4 people instaed of 3... think...

Pluslechu February 21st, 2004 11:15 AM

I'd be irritable if someone who acted as 'dumb' as May was following me around. No offence to people who like May, but she just bothers me. Even more than Misty did! @[email protected]

Evil Togepi February 21st, 2004 1:35 PM

I have noticed he's been getting quite a nasty head on him recently, but I personally don't think it's to do with Misty, more with May herself mixed with his eagerness to get to the gyms and such. It's just cos she's a newbie at Pokémon Training so gets everything wrong (*Not like Ash doesn't*) but anyone can find that annoying especially when her inexperience in Pokémon Training and traveling and her genreal ditzyness makes him miss ferries to the next gym or slows them down ect.

In conclusion... Ash just has a short temper :p

Kayleigh February 21st, 2004 2:06 PM

Well, yeah, you do have a point. Ash isn't used to having to teach someone else how to become a good Pokemon Trainer. He always had Brock and Misty, who were both very knowledgeable(sp? >_>) about Pokemon, so he's not used to it. Plus her lack of interest in battles irritated him, and she's pretty ditzy so... Yeah. XD

Teara February 21st, 2004 2:16 PM

I'm glad I'm not May, I can be quite a ditz sometimes too so I would probably get yelled at for it.^_^ I have noticed that though, I also noticed that Brock seems to talk to May and reassure her alot...hmmm...could that be a sign?
*tries to look intellagent*
hmmm...^_-

Kenta-kun February 21st, 2004 2:18 PM

The fact that she's ditzy may just be the dub, of course. Maybe Satoshi (Ash) is just being pigheaded. Who knows?

Jeremy February 21st, 2004 2:28 PM

Ash yells at May cuz, May doesn't care about Pokémon that much, she doesn't like battleing , and she's an annoying brat. There I said it!

shadowblade February 23rd, 2004 12:22 AM

ash's acts the exact same way he did with misty. what u are noticing is the ack of counter force from the female character. normally ash makes insults and he normally takes it out on misty do to she is always on his case. and she normally counters that with her own attitude. all it is, is that ash is the only one yelling. thats the difference. May eventually may be able to counter to whst ash normally says. the thing is she takes it rather then yelling back at ash. in honest opinion i think ash is just over confident, but that may have changed when he lost in dewford. AND MAY ISN'T A BRAT !!!!!!!!

dqle February 23rd, 2004 9:25 AM

May, not a brat??? At least Misty didn't complain about traveling everywhere Ash went!!! (Ironic that May wants to travel but can't even walk to town from town) Yup, Misty rubbed off her attitude on Ash and Ash rubbed off his battling style on Misty, mentioned in the Whirl Cup Championships.

Snivi February 23rd, 2004 2:44 PM

I noticed how mean he has been being to May. She seems sad by it too but I hope she doesn't like him, like him.

yakksoho February 23rd, 2004 3:57 PM

I do not think that he is short with Haruka because he misses Kasumi...granted he misses his friend but I don't think she occupies his mind that much.

I think he is a little colder with Haruka becasue she is kind of ditzy and more annoying than Kasumi was, and with Kasumi he had a very strong friendship, almost a sibling relationship with her, so they were always joking with each other and such. He has not developed a strong relationship with Haruka yet becuase they've only been with each other for 2 seaons.

I personally haven't liked either of his female traveling companions much at all...but both Takeshi and Kenji were really good, strong characters. Maybe that's just me, I don't know. o_O

shadowblade February 23rd, 2004 6:58 PM

but thats just may. it's not that she is a brat. she just gets tired easily. even though she likes to travel she doesn't like to walk. all she is, is alittle lazy. and ash isn't really mean to may. you just haven't seen a fight between main male and main female in awhile. thats why it seems one sided.

Scyther5 February 23rd, 2004 7:32 PM

I think its because May is only a beginner at the pokemonn world and ash is like a vet. So ash feel bugged when ever she asks a basic or beginners question. .?.

dqle February 24th, 2004 12:46 PM

I dunno, I agree with shadowblade. Funny that Ash thinks that being so "mean" would help get himself some friends like Misty did. I don't think that Ash does think about Misty too much, but I really do think that her attitude did do something to him.

Kenta-kun February 24th, 2004 4:07 PM

Speaking of which, how old is Satoshi now? he must be at least 12. And how 'bout Haruka? I'm sorry, but she does NOT look 10

dqle February 25th, 2004 6:48 AM

It does make sense that Ash is 12, but about that short 'Pikachu and Pichu', Ash celebrates his first? aniversary with Pikachu, but he said it's already been a year the second time he was in Viridian City...

I'm so confused!!!

Yeah, May doesn't look 10 years old, but considering her height (about 4'10"; Ash is 5') and her attitude to some things does seem apropriate for a 10 year old.

Yeah, she is very unrealisticly proportioned for a ten year old, but then again ten year olds even with that level of maturity and being away from home so long is unrealistic.

yakksoho February 25th, 2004 4:17 PM

I believe currently in Advance Generation Satoshi is 12, I think I actually read that 'statistic' somewhere, maybe on pokemon.co.jp? i dont recall.... Also if you assume that the episodes follow his life closely enough that each episode represents about 2 or 3 days, this makes sense as well.

Haruka looks to me to be about 12 but I remember that the narrator says she's 10 years old in the very first episode as she's riding her bike. I think that 10 is a believable age for her.

Takeshi's what about 14? 15?

Kenta-kun February 25th, 2004 4:22 PM

Takeshi was probably around 14-15 when he first met Satoshi, so he could be like 16 or 17 (maybe even 18) by now

Flaming Torchic February 25th, 2004 4:43 PM

Ash is mean to May? I haven't really noticed that much. On the second episode of Hoenn he was nice to May when they were walking...Oh yeah, he did snap at her for complaining, but that was just cause she was whining. So maybe he just snaps at May because she complains too much.

Neither did I... poor her...

dqle February 27th, 2004 6:24 PM

If u guys really havn't noticed, Ash is really touchy about everything recently! I caught the one with May first, but then I realized that he got ticked by Max and Brawley and as well as James! Comon, for at least 2 years, Ash didn't get up in TR's face, but does now?!?! Also, he's lost gym battles before as well. In Kanto, I remember Brock, Lt. Surge, and leader on Cinnabar Island (forgot his name) :(

I think this is because of a missing female companion...
