[@NinjaristicNinja]

[@Pollymacho]

Bro, Blue got me sobbing at work, I _need_ to read this vefore Nintendo DMCAs it off the face of the Internet.

[@whotfduece08]

This series is so goated. Act made me cry ngl. Just an overall great take on pokemon. MY ONLY PROBLEM is that the breaks take forever and the most recent chapter was just a filler one, but besides that this series is one Ill nvr forget

he's a single father with kids that he needs to support, which is why it takes a while. but from what i've seen online from his twitter and pixiv posts, he clearly has passion for this story.

[@whotfduece08]

@@tsa1tama Yea I know. It was just my opinion but obv he should put the kid first and he clearly loves the story

[@Penkeychain]

Great video highlighting this gem of an engaged fanwork! With many of these big franchises, what the fans make of what they're given can add so much to whatever was originally there.

[@Pollymacho]

Thank you for the kind words. And I really enjoyed your comment, that's such a great way of putting it!

[@DBZfan452]

This reminds me a lot of the Adventures manga, both in the style and the characters. Given that series remains my all-time favorite take on the Pokemon world and characters, Festival of Champions sounds exactly like the sort of thing I'll love reading. Thanks for letting me know about it!

[@Pollymacho]

Oh right on man! Pokémon Adventures is awesome, I just got the 1st volume of the collectors edition a few months ago. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy reading it!

[@Burma1]

Only watched up until the Spoiler Free section but you have sold me on Festival of Champions! Going to put it on my list of things to read. Thanks Pollymacho!

[@Pollymacho]

Awesome, hope you enjoy it!

[@tom-ate]

Damn that was super well done You really have a talent for expressing the emotions you felt and presenting them in a passionate way that doesn't just feel like gushing or something like that

[@Pollymacho]

Thank you very much Tomate, its a a tricky balance in conveying that while being tolerable to watch. Your lovely comment means a lot, thanks for watching!

[@weabootrash6726]

Amazing video on an amazing piece of Pokémon that is a hidden gem. The manga series is always a great piece of the series that many fans can sit and read. Great video :)

[@Pollymacho]

Aw thanks, it means a lot to hear you enjoyed it! And that you've read the series, its scarey how good it is!

[@argenti3324]

Your voice is so nice for video essays ^^ Nostalgia and passion is always bittersweet topics.

[@Pollymacho]

Aw thanks, thats really nice of you to say. Thanks for watching!

[@linarius_moon3842]

I appreciate the way you described the themes of the manga,the psychology of Green(glad that you didn't straight up painted him negatively),and the message the manga wanted to convey.((´∀｀*)) As someone who recently re-discovered Festival of Champions after more than four years,I'm so glad that there are still people talking about it!♪ヽ(*´∀`)ﾉ Assisting to the scene where Raticate died and then how things went downhill from there hurt me in a way I don't think I've ever felt before from a media. I almost teared up when I saw an illustration made,by the artist,called 夢「こういうことも　あったのかもな」, in which Green was feeding an Alolan Raticate with lots of berries,while smiling at the pokémon...(´；ω；｀)

[@Pollymacho]

Glad you liked it, thanks for checking this video out! I gotta check out that illustration!

[@AzureistheName]

Okay, I'm sold, here's me stopping before reading, will come back after I do, pending my ADHD doesn't make me forgor haha

[@Pollymacho]

Right on, hope you enjoy it!

[@shadowstrikex54]

Great video as always Pollymacho. If you have time, I highly recommend a Steam game called Idol Manager. And I also highly recommend completing the story mode and romance option

[@Pollymacho]

Thanks Shadowstrike for watching and the recommendation , I'll look into it!

[@kiwilemons737]

Great video 👍

[@yourdemiseishere]

Twilly, zorbak.... i see that.

[@Pollymacho]

Hehehe I've been caught at long last!

[@olympiannerd]

This seems super cool but im having trouble finding it in english can someone help me in the right direction?

[@Pollymacho]

I've got you! The site Novel Cool should have the chapters. Just look it up with that site and you should be good to go. Have fun and thanks for watching!
