    Agatha doesn't die. After she is seemingly knocked out, she uses Gengar to confuse Blue/Green and Koga. After Gengar loses, Agatha gives a short monologue and disappears in a swirl of darkness.

    Great video so far but gotta say the representation thing is silly to say. U literally had animes/manags of all girl teams fighting bad guys before pokemon was a thing..... like dude sailor moon was def a thing lol. Or card captures? The main character eas little girl who fought monsters! Like dude boys are way more violent/physical and or more athletic in general than woman in general so ya. Sounds like someone is conveniently forgetting some history i think

    No im fully aware that the scene for women in manga is way more robust than in the west just by virtue of having dedicated comics for girls be... a real genera that people care about and japan just having way more women in comics period, but when it comes to series or even media about....people getting the shit beat out of them and beating the shit out of others.... all genders seem to more or less like that equally but the scales are tilted towards the boys.

    @MangaDungeon yes and the series of ppl not being that way tilts towards woman. Because that's how it is. Do u want more men to be represented as liking makeup and being in relationship style shows? No and thats.my point and why it's silly. Ppl just trying to find problems because we are supposed to be running from lions and sitting behind a screen

    ​@@BCc249 Actually yes, I would like both of those things quite a bit acctually. I do think its an issue that there are limited avenues for men to improve the way they look and some of those arnt seen as socially accetable and I think it is bad that we dont really have many romance series for guys. We used to have alot of that in manga and anime but not so much anymore. Rumiko Takahashi probably the most well known woman manga writer (for boomers anyway) made her bread and butter off romantic comedies that are targeted to boys

    @MangaDungeon there are reasons for that, though. Woman whether they want to admit itnor not due to biological imperative are.attracted to power/wealth over looks.... my point is u can want it all u want, but there isn't a big enough market for it..... I don't know one man who isn't gay or extremely feminine (which is a very small portion of men) that will actually pay for a full romantic story with no action

  • @BCc249
    @BCc249Ай бұрын

    @MangaDungeon ps there are plenty of avenues for men to improve how they look.... it just depends on who u want to make yourself look better for that changes how u should go about it. Men don't use makeup because it makes them look more feminine in general, and women who are attracted to men don't find that good attractive. Whether pplbwant to admit it or not. They out of biological imperative attracted to stregnth, wealth, power and anytbing that keeps them safe. Feminism has its place but don't beleive the lies in it. Woman deserve to wrk but the world isn't just created out of thin air. Their are reasons why everything's the way it is. Most of it is nature not nurture if u know what I mean

    This was the first manga I ever read as a 7 year old kid way back in the day. I had never seen art quite like this and had not really read many other comics in general at that point. I think I only had issues 1-4. The haunter gave me nightmares but i read those over an over. I didn't even know about the Pokemon video games. I only knew about about the show, and this manga was my first expose to alternate continuities and the changes in adaptations of the same story in different media. I was very confused at first that things weren't the same as the show but was able to accept it pretty quickly. Another funny thing that comes to mind is how fascinated by the food I was. I had no exposure to Asian foods at the time, so i had no idea what the dumplings, onigiri, ramen, or naruto were. The naruto on Oak's face while he was in the clefairy costume was perplexing to me. "Mom what is this swirly thing on this guy's face?" "I don't know, don't worry about it" I didn't see naruto in real life in a bowl of ramen until I was 19 and I instantly remembered The Electric Tale of Pikachu

    Funny enough, Manga Lance really made N very awkward in the manga. Because N is really just a toned down Manga Lance. They both are able to communicate with Pokemon, but Lance can heal Pokemon on his will on top to this ability. They both hate human, but while N only just forces people to release Pokemon, Lance straight up commits genocide to set Pokemon free back in their environment. In many ways, Lance is way more aggressive and outright "evil" compared with N. N really just went with Getsis's plans, while Lance straight up is the leader of the group.

    N is supposed to be sympathetic and he's never really been portrayed as the antagonist (as far as I know, I haven't read that arc in the manga but have played the games). N is groomed and raised to be the "honorable" Pokemon savior, unlike Manga Lance who reached that aspiration through traumatic events; by BW2 (in the games at least) we're even fighting by his side seeing his redemption arc. As far as I'm concerned they're fundamentally different characters with similar traits, hell I'd rather say N is a discount Yellow first before comparing him to Lance. I think it kind of fits since Yellow got the Princess Sapphire influences, while N is clearly made to be a virtuous princely character.

    Another foreshadow thing in the manga I would like to point out: Professor Oak, in Agatha's flashback in this arc, was seen to use Kangaskhan's Dizzy Punch to beat up Agatha's Gengar. Dizzy Punch is a normal type move. It shouldn't be able to hit the Ghost type Gengar. The manga gave some weird bs explanation about understanding the spirits makes you be able to hit ghosts with normal type moves, but basically you can explain it as "Oak is so f good in Pokemon that he can break the rules of type effectiveness" But if you look further.... In Gen4, Kangaskhan gets the ability "Scrappy". What does Scrappy do? It allows normal type attacks to hit Ghost type moves. Exactly what was shown in this manga 3 generations before this ability was a thing.

  • @hhjan594

    I think one reason Yellow was disguised as a boy (not the reason in lore) is that back in the day Pokemon Adventures was still more a shonen-vibe manga. Remember this is still in the 90s. If you suddenly just make the sequel story a female protagonist a cute young girl, the audience possibly wouldn't accept it too well. But they still wanted to make Yellow the girl who was saved by Red in the previous arc, as that gives her actual motivation (and experience of battling with Pikachu) in this arc, which is a neat way of linking the story and shifting the protagonist to the next new character. Since she was only revealed to be a girl like 3/4 into the Yellow arc, people who like her won't dislike her just because she's a girl. Instead, it makes more sense on some of her previous actions.

    To clarify, Pokemon was not meant to end with the Gen 2, that's just a mistranslation that was spread as a rumor. There was no way they were ending the franchise while it was making so much money.

    I think its more of a slight stretch. Nintendo and GF the company knows this money train is too sweet to stop. Nintendo and GF the developers working on the game probably felt differently. Its really normal for a game dev team to say "Hey I think we did all the stuff we wanted to do more or less. Lets work on a new game" and the company and fans go "Hey you were really cooking with that last one... im gonna need more of that please"

Also, may I suggest using the original Japanese names for the rivals (Green is the boy and Blue is the girl), because in one scene in FRLG arc Red and Green traded their starters and remarked that they matched the colors in their names.

    Yellow imo is the best protagonist ever in anything related to Pokémon ever. Girl was a zero to hero and she kind of has that "Gohan" feeling to her that you just don't ever see in any protagonist, it's usually "become the champion/bestest in da world", but Yellow? She had to become accustomed to battling, she had to adapt and overcome her fears so rapidly and against some of the most evil characters ever seen. Yellow is definitely one of my personal favorite female characters in fiction, and especially Pokémon.
