So back at highschool, me and some Seniors began to talk bout Pokemon (memories...) But then the question came up "So who's the new protagonist for the new pokemon?"
My answer: "Dude... it's still Ash"
Then we started to have this effed-up conversation about Ash and the fact that it doesn't seem that he has aged... at all...
Yeah... something bout dropping balls, and woman's voice also came up (but let's not get into details...)
So i wondered, maybe the fact that Ash will forever (if the not aging thing is true) be a kid for generations to come, is because Ash is the living manifestation of the "new generations". By new generations I mean kids who have been born a lil bit after from us. You know: "Let's keep Ash a kid to have more of an appeal to younger viewers"
Ex:
I'm 18 now, but before, I used to watch the Kanto Gen anime. I was more of a "kid" back then. So I was like "WOW, POKEMONS!".
But let's say a kid (much younger than I) Wouldn't understand pokemon for being too young, but eventually, he would grow into the series by the time Johto Gen pops up, and so on and so on...
Hence the dif pokemons and the fact that most... ok... all of my friends don't like the new pokemons because they don't seem like the Kanto gen we grew up with... But yeah (man i suck at writing these things...)
So I would like to hear... read opinions of you guys (if you got what I ment) And would like to know, what do you think about the Gen thing... so yeah... blast away...
