Best episode ever!!! 🥰

[@kodytiffany5686]

Until I can watch the series' over again and complete the entire Ash Journey once and for all; I can't actually say it means anything at all yet. Pokemon or otherwise it matters not; I expect the Sun and Moon out of all stories I start. My expectations for completion of plot and void of things that are left out... well its kind of expressed as X times Y to the power of Z. So of course my outlook is Black and White; I find all the things like Pokemagic and Aura and raise my Sword and Shield in there defense and there need to be included in that completion. The full Prism of the various series have given me so much to speculate with and delivered so little answers to end the questions. My Gold and Silver badges for questions unanswered is "What does it mean in universe to be a Pokemon Master" the songs suggested answer of being the best that ever was is not even properly answered because we know so little of the history. Silver question being is why are so many clones in that world? Jennys and Joys having so little difference among there own number comes across as being creepy similar to phones or other mass produced tools; as the years go on the models improve on the base models function yet there purpose fits to them to well. The anime side of the franchise has always been my GO too. Yet As much as its like chasing Diamonds in the sky; I kept waiting for Ashes Biological Father to appear as he was hinted at being something once... and yet we never got closer to this point. Team Rocket deserves real conclusion and success the kind of Pearl of wisdom or Great success that could break them away from Team Rocket and allow them to live in happiness without needing to be evil again. So many times they would do great because they were doing the right things only to have team Rocket stuff drag them back and ruin there lives. Mystery that it may be I think I was able to seriously reference each game to some extent. In case you missed it Scarlet; ROY G BIV are the colors in a prism so most game titles as well as the first league and a certain Battle on some islands is covered by it. I consider myself the hardest fan to please that has not turned to threats and other BS to object the show. I might like the majority of it but I liked it so much for potential not deeds. The fact the future was open and the sense it would never end gave rise to unimaginable potential for where the story could goh. So that is why I reserve my final opinion until I have experienced the entire Ash journey as of current.

[@charusharu]

@@TsuriaDragon Enjoy! I especially love using it to tune into live Japanese TV shows when I'm not in Japan. ^^

[@slaps1455]

What I loved about Journeys as a whole is that it expressed time and time again how much Ash has grown and matured over the course of the whole series. Goh doesn’t even know he’s been traveling with the Alola champion until the 2nd time they visit Alola. Not because Ash isn’t proud of his achievements, but because he’s always looking forward. It differentiates what his child like characteristics are as a person with how much he’s grown and matured throughout the entirety of his adventures.

[@alexos9011]

You just know Season 1 Ash would just brag endlessly about being the very first Alolan champion

[@slaps1455]

The bond with Ash and Pikachu is shown in literally every scene that they react to something. They’re always the same. Pikachu’s time spend on Ash’s shoulder vs in a pokeball and experiencing everything Ash does is what makes Yellow Mickey so OP in the first place. He experiences EVERYTHING that Ash does firsthand

[@dejurr1699]

I remember him bragging about 3 gym badges and now he wasn’t even bragging about being Alola champ, he’s grown so muchh

[@charusharu]

Yes, he used to be so immature haha.

[@justarandomperson6115]

bro is still 10 💀

[@michaelmulligan8527]

It definitely made me cry. I watched the original Kanto series and most of Johto when it first aired, while I was in 8th-10th grade, only stepping away because life was getting more exciting and fun and I had other things that needed doing on Saturday mornings... but I always checked in with Ash and Pikachu, especially at season finale time. Now I'm 37 with 3 kids who have been watching Journeys on Netflix. So when I saw he was going to be in the Top 8 I started watching the sub... I stand by my statement that Pikachu vs. Charizard is one of the best anime fights of all time. The choreography of the two of them running around and on the stadium, the clashing attacks, the "how will they get out of this one!" moments all culminating in a 1st person view of Pikachu collapsing, only to get a pep talk dream from his friends and an electric roar as he finally takes down the #1 ranked trainer and pokemon in the world... I couldn't stop tearing up. I think you hit the nail on the head here... nostalgia mixed with the realization that you've grown up and that a new generation is ready to take over for both myself and Ash is something that doesn't go down easy... but once it does you realized how truly beautiful it all was and will continue to be.

[@chrisstepina2200]

This! I'm 36 with 3 kids who love watching pokemon. I cried like a baby.

[@charusharu]

Well said! Pikachu VS Charizard was amazing indeed - hope you enjoy many more Pokemon memories with your kids in the years to come. :) Happy Holidays!

going down the age chain, I'm 35 years old...I don't have kids yet but man did I sob during that moment. Once Butterfree appeared, there was no stopping these flood gates haha.

[@wadedewell]

I'm 35 made me cry too. Realize I'm getting old and the next generation is going to take over. It's also like losing a good friend who you have known your whole life.

[@Beyondthe5thPanel]

The fact that this episode could make those who were spoiled actually forget, or question if they were spoiled, by Pikachu temporarily losing consciousness, is absolutely amazing. This happened to me and I’m glad it did

[@keokozonaioni9738]

This video just made me tear up, the significance of Ash vs Leon is very big and it just made it feel like that now Ash is World Champion he has nothing to do as starting over in another region with just Pikachu still, there was small hope he will continue his journey and after 136 it just hits very deep in that he'll not continue his adventure as the protagonist anymore. It's like a void in my heart which makes me feel like I've lost someone close to me like a friend or family member, Thank you Ash & Pikachu for this grand adventure you'll always be recognised as the very best and the face of this franchise!

[@charusharu]

Yeah, it was a shocker to find out he will be sitting out in the next anime. So much meaning behind this torch pass!

[@dragonhunter285ify]

I was at work watching episode 132, and i cheered and cried. It was a moment well deserved, and it did make me question my own life. Ash achieved his goal to beat Leon someone untouchable, and he never backed down. It made me look at my own dreams and goals, and I got teary. Thank you for the great video and always being there for us

Ash's growth over the past few years really is something incredible to witness. That aside, what incredible storyteller you are! Cheers and have awesome holidays sir

[@grimsongreen3217]

Seeing Ash accomplish so much and his era of the show coming to an end really hit me and lit a fire under my butt to aim for my own goals. This may be late for me, but it really feels like I'm leaving my childhood behind now so new generations can start their own journeys in life. It's funny, going from a little 'boy' with protagonist syndrome much like ash did in his early episodes, to being a grown woman who admired the effort and determination that he ended up with. This ending really feels like a new beginning for so many peoples lives.

[@fernandoencisoestrada1013]

Pokemon gave me one of the greatest birthday gifts the day I turn 31 they had Ash become a World Champ and it brought me to tears. Having been a fan since I was 7 years old he was so gratifying.

[@madnessarcade7447]

Pokémon is such a one of a kind unique franchise and ash and pikachu have such an one of a kind unique journey There’s no characters like them in any anime or even within pokemon itself They are so special I’m gonna be showing the anime to my kids

[@GTZ00]

While I did cry tears of joy seeing Ash win, I did have that uncomfortable and bittersweet feeling too. Knowing they are moving on from Ash in the anime after the 11 episodes also brings that uncomfortable feeling. It wasn't until I watched your video, and how you perfectly described the meaning behind Ash's victory and why it hit us older fans the hardest, did I find the reason behind the uncomfortable feeling. Kinda felt like I was letting go of that childhood dreamland because Ash had "grown up" now. Your video definitely spoke to me and helped put into words what I've been trying to process since the airing of Ash's victory. Thank you.

[@Tevinp20]

Great Video! Yeah, Episode 132 hit differently, it was seeing that everything Ash had done over the past 25 years still mattered. Every friend, every pokemon he either caught or let go at some point still played a part. It wasn't till after the dust set that the other questions started popping up. As we wait to see Ash's choice for the future, it leaves me wondering what is mine? Very few anime can bring up these thoughts after it concludes. Happy Holidays!

[@charusharu]

Yes! It's a good time to think about our own futures - particularly with the new year in sight. :) Happy Holidays!

[@xcmet]

i think the next big thing for Ash after becoming a pokemon master is to continue connecting with pokemon by traveling the world while being a teacher or inspiration to upcoming trainers around the world.

[@underplanet4911]

I cried when Ash has did it that he won the PWC, it's great seeing how much Ash and Pikachu has grown over the years 🔥😭

[@sketchflix6425]

Even though the series was not as good as others in the line, it was very beautiful in it own right. Call backs, memories, nostalgia, touching moments and shots.... It has the beauty in it. Like Sam mentioned, Ash grew up. Each season proved out how Ash have changed. From that silly, inexperienced kid to One powerful, understanding SOB. Awesomeness❣

[@MizuHime07]

Yeah you nailed it. I'm currently 35 years old and I was crying during that whole segment of Pikachu seeing all of the Pokemon they had come across. Once that moment was going on, it dawned on me that this could possibly be the end for Ash and Pikachu; the end of their adventures. I'll admit I had stopped watching the series once Ash left Hoenn and was going back to Kanto, [mainly cause I just couldn't watch it more when it switched Channels] During my college years I found people were posting the Diamond and Pearl arc online and was trying to watch as much as I could, but school and life kept getting in the way so I could watch just bits and pieces here in there. Every time I watched Ash continue on his journey it did send me back to my childhood when I first started watching the show. Now thanks to the internet [and a much more stable work schedule] I can watch the Pokemon anime much easier hence why I started watching at the tail end of XYZ, Sun and Moon and now Journey's. Ash's personality has matured so much since the last time I've seen him and that makes me feel so happy. These last 11 episodes will definitely be a tear jerker so I'mma have my Kleenex ready. 😢😭

I’m currently 22 and have been watching Pokémon since I was born. When I was born my mother had started collecting the VHS tapes to the first 3 seasons. I literally had the first 200 episodes up until misty left the series for VHS until I had a basement flood in 2011. Broke my heart. To this day I think that’s probably my biggest L. Now here we are and they’re getting rid of ash and pikachu. I think im gonna collect the original series for vhs again

I just went and watched that battle! Omg, it's like watching a pokemon battle animated by the studio Ufotable (but its not). Very intense with the smoking Pikachu in superhero pose. Then theres that one scene where Pikachu partially blacks out and hears the very first words Satoshi says to him back from Episode 1 Season 1 when they meet at Oak's laboratory. Then the opening theme plays from season 1 (1997). Oh god. So many feels.

[@josealvarado6011]

Pikachu went full super Saiyan and you can convince me otherwise⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️

[@Mr.Crabz89]

The Pokemon anime's been a part of our childhood and seeing our man-boy turned champion grow is something to be both happy and sad about; happy in the sense that he's finally the world champion and has achieved growth as a Pokemon trainer-not sure if he's achieved his goal of being a Pokemon master; and sad, as this also marked the end for his story with the anime. I just hope those final 11 episodes do make a great closure to one of our greatest childhood heroes and give him a proper send-off. I am excited for the next story of Riko and Roi. Though they would need a lot of time to achieve or even surpass the thing that Ashie-boy achieved. Great content as always @charusharu.

About the thunderbolt attack Pikachu did, with all the rainbow-y effect and the black sparks, I like to think that attack is quite similar to the large thunderbolt attack in the first episode "POKéMON! I Choose You!", against the flock of Spearow. It had the same kind of emotional weight as well. I know it's probably sounding a bit silly, if a bit childish, but I got the same feeling when Pikachu used that move as when I first saw the first episode. As for the upcoming 11 episodes, I'm going to try and prepare myself for the episodes like "Bye Bye Butterfree" and "Pikachu's Goodbye", because I feel like I may cry like a little baby.

Here's my recommended order for catch up, from worst to best: 1. Best Wishes 2. XY 3. Diamond & Pearl 4. Sun & Moon 5.

[@Angelite1209]

I recommend watching Japanese Dub because the English dub sometimes removes the Original Cool japanese songs and replace them with Bland sounds.

[@Angelite1209]

A perfect example is XY series Ash Vs. Moltres. The Japanese dub makes the battle look and sound hype🔥👄🔥, but English dub makes it sound anticlimactic and cringy😑. Also!! the English dub makes the usual mistake of making some Pokemon sound cringy. Not every pokemon speak their own name!! 😒 The Japanese dub does it correctly and gives Pokemon more natural creature-like voices.

I can't help but wondering if the 11-episode series will ended up on a real Pikachu's Goodbye, since there's not much to really say about Ash and Pikachu. Also considering the show is called "Ash and Pikachu's Final Chapter". Also, it would be great if the show will end where it all started: Ash's Gengar vs someone's Nidorino.

[@charusharu]

This will be a sad changing ash, I still want him to continue the adventure. I guess things need to change. But I will still see ash as my Protagonist in Pokemon.

[@charusharu]

Very sad - but it will be cool to see how the next show plays out!
