been watching the series for almost 10 years straight now (and watched some epsidoes when i was really young). Ash's journey should have ended after XYZ with a kalos league victory but they milked him for another 6 years for no reason. I was happy when his time finally ended (could have been a way better ending but nvm)
I watched all the episodes so far in japanese and the beggining had potential but now with the new school arc you can see tomiyasu's influence growing...
the school arc is a mistake imo. the main focus should be what JN didnt give us. a show with a planned arc for each region. its been a year and this so called "series that takes place all over the world" only gave us paldea and galar episodes...
just give us 20-25 episodes in each region with lots of returning characters and new plotlines all eventually leading to a reunion with ash. is that so hard?
