    My allowance is £15 a week, plus a £10 a fortnight. I'm halving it so I can save up for something.

    Every 2 weeks I do a nice thing where I spend 20 min letting people take pictures of my eyes and then they give me 7.50 to spend on whatever I want, it's quite nice really.

    I used to get like £5 a week when I was smaller, if I was good. Though this stopped when I started high school, due to them giving me money for food in the school canteen everyday. Though now if I need some extra cash, I help out in my dad's shop and get paid.


    I'm a little saddened by the fact that the Pokémon anime section is on the verge of dying. It's been quite neglected due to lack of interest in the anime. And down to one page of a few threads, not including the episode discussion subforum. The section has a lot of potential. So yeah, peoples go post there.

    I haven't catched up with the latest episodes of Best Wishes, but I'm definitely trying my best to post there. :'3 ..

    Lucky you, I don't get paid. XD

    I don't watch the anime because I don't even watch shows that I actively really like, let alone shows I'm ambivalent towards. :(

    The games and the manga are more than enough for me, I'm already the resident Pokemon expert in my group of friends.

    That's a terrible statement to make. Many people were introduced to the series through the anime. Plus the anime is the biggest point of promotion for the games. :\ Are there any reasons in particular why you don't like it? I mean, just because you don't like it doesn't mean it shouldn't exist.

    I don't really agree, as much as I lack interest towards the show. The games were first to come out, but I think the anime also plays an integral part in the whole Pokemon franchise.

    I totally agree that it's a great way of promoting the games, as of course, interests young people and buys the game for sure. :'p

    I don't necessarily like the anime, any more at least, lol, but I don't want it to disappear. :\ If it had never happened, we wouldn't have epic movies like the first one. xD

    There is way more to it than that. It hasn't been going on for this long because of promotion. Many, many people very much enjoy watching the series, I'm very passionate about the series. I've watched it since I was small, and followed Ash on his journey up until now. I'm sure many, many generations of children have enjoyed watching it over the past 14 years, it's loved by many, many people, young and old...

    I have been watching the series ever since I was a kid, but I stopped watching after some anime distracted me, so I couldn't say that I watched it all, I definitely missed some. D': .. Which is bad ..

    Although I have to say that the anime probably has the weakest long-term following as opposed to, for example, the games, because it constantly has to appeal to young audiences and for some reason that always goes over better with the games than the anime.

    Maybe you already explained what this entails and I missed it, or maybe no one is interested, but this sounds so weird. Are you an eye model? Please tell me that you are. That would be even crazier than a hand model.
