>>59687480>>59689127You jest but I've always thought Ash had mature masculine facial features for a ten year old (sharp jawline, thick eyebrows). The reason I preferred my country's local dub over the english one was because the deeper male voice they gave him felt more fitting than the "girly" voice of Taylor and Natochenny
>>59689165Based Chado design
>>59689165>I've always thought Ash had mature masculine facial features for a ten year old (sharp jawline, thick eyebrows)Growing up, I always thought Ash was Hispanic/Latino because he just had that certain look about him: he clearly didn't appear "white" in the same way Misty and most of the other characters in the anime did... but at the same time, Ash definitely didn't look anything like Brock who had an entirely different appearance that was very distinct from almost everyone else, not just in the anime but the Pokemon series as a whole.Ash's ethnicity was sort of ambiguous and "in between" characters like Misty and Brock, if you know what I mean... and I still wonder if Ash was really supposed to represent a typical kid from East Asia, Southern Europe, Latin America or maybe even the USA.
>>59689216Oh yeah and I forgot to add this to my post:I know all the characters in the first several seasons of the Pokemon anime are technically "Japanese" (except for Lt. Surge obviously) because their designs came from Japan and the first couple of regions that the main characters traveled through in the anime were also influenced by Japan... but most Japanese people in real life don't have large eyes like in the anime (which was the main artstyle of anime in general back then) and neither do they have hair that comes in different colors besides black (having both large eyes and colorful hair, like the majority of people in the Pokemon anime, are mostly European traits in real life)That's why Ash in particular and Brock too stood out from the rest of the characters in the days of earlier Pokemon.

>>59687304wasn't there supposed to be some live action pokemon series by netflix in development? whatever happened to that
>>59689291>wasn't there supposed to be some live action pokemon series by netflix in development?I don't know but if the live action Pokemon series does end up happening, I hope to God their live adaptation of the anime doesn't end up being like the unfaithful, piece of shit trainwreck that was Dragon Ball Evolution lmao
>>59689291Probably cancelled netflix is busy with one piece
>>59687304sex with Ashley
>>59689321It’s going to be unfaithful because Pokemon anime is just episodic garbage
>>59689165im not joking at all. Ash has insane masculine energy. he taught mr mime ultra instinct without even trying because hes so badass
>>59689321one piece reset the standard for live action anime. i gotta give it to that oda fucker he actually cares about his work unlike toriyama
>>59689216>and I still wonder if Ash was really supposed to represent a typical kid from East Asia, Southern Europe, Latin America or maybe even the USA.Clearly he was meant to be a poster boy for the average Japanese boy in the 90s, but his features were ambiguous/universal enough to make him pass across multiple cultures. They unintentionally struck gold with that design.
>>59689496>i gotta give it to that oda fucker he actually cares about his work unlike toriyamaToriyama tried having some involvement but was ultimately brushed off by the Hollywood execs. You forget the movie industry is filled with narcissists and Hollywood was still a omnipotent media giant. Japanese IPs had no respect in mainstream western media and their creators were laughed out of the room whenever they tried having a say. The anime/manga industry was still a niche market in USA around mid to late 2000s whose core demographic was looked down on.
>>59689690idk if thats necessarily true. dragon ball in the 90s and 2000s along with pokemon during its meteoric rise solidifed jap media as "good enough" so to speak that they wanted to capitalize on it. you're thinking more of guys like kojima who actually tried to break into Hollywood and got laughed at rather than jap media that was organically brought over which is fair but its not what im talking about exactly.
>>59689784>idk if thats necessarily true. dragon ball in the 90s and 2000s along with pokemon during its meteoric rise solidifed jap media as "good enough" so to speak that they wanted to capitalize on it. Were you there? Cause in America, even though they became popular, they also had a fall-off after their initial peak, with Pokémon having fell off after Pokémania and DBZ having started to lose its earlier momentum after the end of its broadcast run. Pokémon's post-PokéMania fall off is well known in the fanbase, but even other anime IPs experienced a similar decline in popularity. Much of mainstream western media saw the rise of Japanese media as a infiltration on their market share and treated Pokémon/DB's meteoric success with reluctant acknowledgment and tried brushing it off as a temporary fad. They were still popular enough, but nowhere close to their current mainstream popularity.
Would you cum inside a tomboy foid ash?
>>59689875yeah im 100% a byproduct of that era. came home from one of my first days of school to find dbz ocean dub and fell in love. shortly after there was pokemon and all my friends thought it was the coolest thing ever. then we fired fake kamehamehas and fire blasts at each other. cringy in hindsight but we were kids who cares lol. i definitely experienced the pokemon fall off when gen 3 hit but almost everyone i knew was still hardcore into anime because of toonami. i wouldnt be too surprised if i had some influence on dragon ball absalon because of how much stupid OC donut steel i used to draw.
>>59690781>A veteran of the halls emerges
>>59690781Are you stupid? Yes, you and your friends being weirdos was normal, it was big to us because we were literal children. 50+ year olds in the entertainment industry were decades removed from anime being relevant to them in any way except "those weird cartoons my faggot kid and his friends watch". Of course the medium wasn't given proper respect back then. A DBZ/Sailor moon crossover could only be porn back then. Now? 20 years later? It's different
>>59689289Oh sorry your new Language is this شيطان أبيض آكل للغائط
>>59690946idk what disconnect is we're having here but that "stupid cartoon my faggot kid watches" was something they just didnt know how to capitalize on. anime existed before that in the west but dbz and pokemon were its first fair chance at actually making something happen. America specifically had a bit of a different sentiment towards japshit though since we experienced the videogame crash and revival through nintendo and the NES in the 80s though
>>59687310>pretzel pretzel kaizer hamburgerOk Hans.
