If Ash Dies..

If Ash dies in the anime, what would you do? Would a new character replace him? Would Pikachu live any longer? I wouldn't because of depression, I mean, for heavens sakes, they have been together for what.., 16 seasons. xD Explain all of your thoughtful thoughts here!

He's already died twice. Now that I think about it, Pikachu died once as well. But they came back.

I don't think he'll ever die for good however.

If Ash Dies, anime is over, simple as that.

He won't die for good...he's a protagonist. Protagonists don't die (I mean permanently)

In Pokemon Canon, rarely anything dies, and of that, it usually isn't people. Ash could be caught on fire, shocked by Pikachu, and drown without having so much as one adverse physical or mental health effect.

Loool they dont make him win a league ever for sake of new and younger fans . thinking they would kill him makes do dam sense to me

ash is hero of this anime he cant die.......

If Ash were to die for good, then it would mark the official end of the anime series altogether-going along with my theory that it will end with the main characters falling seriously ill and dying - a la preparing a soap opera for cancellation.

That's pretty unreasonable, since the Pokemon anime doesn't even like to acknowledge death. I guess.. for one it would be pretty sad. The anime would end. Everyone that knew him would never be the same. omg. Also, millions of parents would be angry that their kids had to watch the death of the Pokemon protag.

I don't think the anime would work without Ash, he's been the protagonist for so many years I just can't see it working with anyone in his place.

Sorry, have to agree with this. If Ash dies that would be it for the anime. Eventually, whether we like it or not, the anime is going to end, but Ash isn't going to die onscreen.

With Ash being a never aging kid, I highly doubt this being an issue.

If I had my way, the Ash anime would come to an end and an animated version of Pokemon Adventure would follow. The manga IMO is superior in every way to the Canon, and I feel an anime with a much more story rich and much more.. compelling protagonists would make for brilliant viewing.

That being said, Pkmn will undoubtedly never go down that route. The show is meant for kids, hence Ash being 10 forever.
