"Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky" Special review discussion

[Unown_]

Here is where you can discuss special "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky" that aired today.

To start off, there is a huge time gap between the end of the previous special and this on. Juptile has joined Hikozaru and Pochama.
Also since the last specials the stakes has been upped a lot. Time is starting to stop on various areas in the land.

I knew Pochama lot his memory, but he knew Juptile in the future. It seems time has stopped in the future and Pochama and Juptile came back to the past to fix that. Juptile also explained that should they succeed, they is a chance that they both would disappear.
Yonoir, also came back to the past to prevent Pochama and Juptile from succeeding. The battle, as well as the special itself, was extreme short. I was kinda feeling sad that Juptile didn't make it.
Pochama decides not to tell Hikozaru that he might cease to exists should their mission be completed, which also makes Pochama rather sad.
Next stop, Dialga...

Like I said the special itself is extreme short and ends with a major cliffhanger. At least it implies that there might be another sequal. Though it was short and the time gap, I really like the story: Pochama and Juptile coming from a timeless future to make time flow again.

Perhaps the writers assumed that the viewer was familiar with the games, which in my case I'm not, because I am getting the feeling that there is a big chunk of the story that seems to be missing. For example, Juptile just popped up in the special. When did he joined the team? Pochama's deja-vu was kinda explained in the previous special was explained, he was from the future, so he already experienced the events in the previous special, though he didn't remembered it.

I got some screenshots up from the special though this is very LQ: https://unown.webhop.org/?id=gallery:mds3
I'll update the page when I can grab a HQ version.

Watching it now.

- No subs suck.
- The Lapras... is flying. IT'S FLYINGGGGG!!!!!
- I'm like playing the game, though in anime mode.
- Hikozaru sounds like Jun when he ordered Dusknoir to give the fragment back.
- Yonoir sounds familiar.
- The Sableyes are like minions. They run when the leader's down.
- Juptile got good moves.
- It almost made me cry.

Nice special!!! I give it a 9/10.

Wait. When you said "Explorers of the Sky," I thought you meant a special came out for the new Mystery Dungeon game "Explorers of the Sky." I guess not...

Anyway, I'm glad to hear that this special is actually gonna be continued. I wonder why the first Mystery Dungeon one wasn't?

Someone made a fansub on Youtube. THere were a couple of errors but otherwise it was fine.

My thoughts throughout:

-Lapras is flying! Sweet!
-Weird they have the same rank I did when I got there.
-Hikozaru: How are we supposed to get to Temporal Tower? Me: You've got legs!
-Yonoir is fat...
-Those three are actually powerful.
-Cowardly Sableye.
-The most decent piece of writing in the series, you will disappear.
-Juptile! No, don't!
-Parting hurts.
-Dialga, you're going to get beat up by a bird and a monkey. That's very sad.

All in all, 10/10

Mystery Dungeon should be a spin-off anime. Enough said.

- Oh! So they're going to be showing the end part of the game? With Lapras, Grovyle? YAY!
- Hey, hey! Something about Hikozaru and Pochama have gone off to find Dialga
- Asleep XD
- If they're going to be showing Temporal Tower, they better use it's music and the Dialga battle theme!
- AHHHHH! When Lapras flies, it's the really sad music in the games :( :( *cries* I've listened to it a lot
- Dusknoir, blah. I always thought he was a villian in the games from the start because he was *too* polite
- More sad music from the game - all the music is from the games, but I remember this is some sad one when Juptoru is talking
- Wow, Juptoru is strong, being able to list up Dusknoir
- Music is so sad :(
- WAAAAAAAAH Juptoru!
- Huh? I thought they would get to Dialga...

They better make another special!
