Sky Sun

Absolutely phenomenal performance from the cast paired with sincere, tireless effort from production team. The TV series communicates so much with so little words in an outstanding example of "show, don't tell" story telling. Blackthrone's character subtly breaks the fourth wall by showing us, through his POV, our naivity to Japanese culture. Through the de-facto protagonist our perceptions of the culture are humbled, reforged, broadened and deepened through his journey. You can truely see the passion and sincereity each casting member poured into their role to provide example of edo period Japanese culture.

Lag, picture renders poorly at long distance, no plot or meaningful story.

This is softcore porn please stop.

Big things that made it worse than Sun Moon and previous games. - Too much handholding. Your practically directed to your next junction. - Too easy. They made expshare permanent - No character arc. Rival lacks depth and is essentially hau 2.0. - Plot has no build up and the small antagonists serve no real purpose. The final villain reveal ends up having nothing to do with everything the hero encounters. - Every struggle in pokemon gen 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 which made those games very fond to reflect from is essentially sugar coated in this generation. A] You have dynamax to beat critical NPC's B] You're gifted very powerful pokemon C] The hero is pampered about being capable rather than embarking on the traditional hero's journey to discover that he/she is capable. D] No puzzles, no detours, no side quests, gym battles are not challenging. - Post game plot also makes no sense. Essentially it's a silly gimic designed to make children ages 5 under laugh. However for the vast majority, it's simply unintelligent and cheap. There are some pros: - Pokemon design is spot on [Corviknight, Wooloo are some of my favorites] - Wild area in concept is nice however it feels very confusing to offer it early in the game, probably should have offered it after a set of gyms and add the delta or penultimate sequence to plot there. Essentially it becomes a cheat to grind and overlevel early.
