[/SPOILER]Ok, so the BW series is commencing, not only in Pokemon Fan, but will be in the next Grade 4 and Ichiban as well. I'm sure I'm not alone in feeling disgruntled that the writers are creating such a big mess in their manga. It seems to me that Kusaka is losing his grip in controlling the pace of his series. DP was a prime example of how things were severely dragged out in the beginning, and severely rushed at the end (the same can actually be said about the Emerald series). We still don't know how complete the magazine version of DP is, and I seriously hope that the Platinum series isn't going to finish in an extra 2-3 Chapters in the volume version. Heck we haven't even seen Giratina yet, let alone Darkrai, Shaymin, Manaphy, a proper debut of Regigigas, and a myriad of human characters including the Elite 4 and Bebe.
This issue's Ichiban (where Togetaro evolves) is actually labelled as the final chapter of the HGSS serializing in this magazine. I haven't gotten Grade 4's November issue, but I'm sure it's the last one there too. So much for all the hypothesis and expectations, it just feels like an inconsequential 'showcase all the new characters and places' series to me. Lance's ambush by Petrel was played down, Silver collecting the 13 Plates was minimized to 2 pages, and we don't know why the God of Creation was easily chained down by some ordinary Pokemon who couldn't stand up against Rhyperior's Earth Power.
Did I mention the stupid branch off end in Ichiban at the Ruins of Alph where Arceus just flies off and Gold just goes home? Confusing enough that Gold's quest at the Pokeathlon couldn't really be pieced together since he's shown to be with the Elite 4 the whole time in one magazine and yet in another magazine he was with DJ Mary and won all 5 medals. (for this reason, forgive me that I am still unable to write the summary for these chapters since they make no sense chronologically)
Anyway, I'm just feeling a rapid decline in quality of PokeSpecial after having followed it loyally for so many years. The writers are trying too hard, too much at one time. Aspiring too much, but not having the capacity to complete what they have started. Putting up too much suspense, but not living up to the expectation. I admit that as fans, our expectations are getting higher and higher, especially when the games have become more 'Special' like over the years, if you know what I mean. I'm not looking for unexpected twists in Special anymore, just hoping for proper ends to each series
Fuertes palabras las de Coronis, pero es la maldita verdad.
Los autores perdieron el control de pokespe, ya que tienen 4 SAGAS sin conluir aún (DP, Plat, HGSS, BW) y no parecieran tener un final pronto DP ni Plat no han mostrado ni a Darkrai, Manaphy ni muchos legendarios aún, ni tampoco personajes importantes, y HGSS practicamente duraría MUY POCO, una pena )
Lo dije antes en un post en el que nadie le dió atención xD, pero se nota que están revolviendo un montón de cosas .
Un montón de errores en la historia, sin un orden cronológico que se pueda ver a simple vista.
Y AHORA SACAN BW???!! ESTÁN LOCOS!!
Eso si, la cosa de Togetaro y su evolución es yeahyeah
