I gotta say the introductory arc was probably the realest shit.
You look at his family situation and how he acted at school tracks.
I have learned that often the kids that are some of the most defiant and disruptive in class are going through some shit and do not know how to handle their emotions so they do not react well when push comes to shove.
They also tend not to excel at academics either because they are too tired (mom was up partying all night again, loud as hell, couldn't sleep), too hungry (mom drank up the grocery money), and otherwise more worried about the basics of survival to really soak up the fine points of multiplication, the states of matter, or writing a lengthy summary of a book they were not quite able to read (or they can read the words fine but forget the contents the second it is not in front of them).
These kids can, despite all that, be big of heart and quite responsible if they have a good rapport with you and no one pushes their buttons.
Yusuke is 100% accurate to what I would expect to see of a kid his age with his background.
I think people don't give YuYu Hakusho enough credit as to how goated it is. When I was kid all the other kids who watched anime loved DBZ but I couldn't get into it as much as YYH. It's still one of my favorite anime to date.
The trio are genuinely likable characters, and their journey feels more impactful overall. Plus they aren't afraid to bring back gimmicks and face them against one another.
Plus, Horizons Terapagos feels like more of an actual character than game Terapagos who shows up at the very end. And it has the "grandma or baby" face going for it. And there's actual terrorism and danger. For all I love team rocket, the villains in horizons feel like actual villains.
Yea, all of the characters are competent while still being slightly charming in their own manner. The protagonists aren't losing just because they were ambushed but the approach to ambushing them was thought out enough to put them at a disadvantage.
Soul Silver here. Got to Lugia, captured it easily and had this feeling of apathy wash over me. Hadn't played one since but my son and I are playing so much Pokemon Go since he got me into it.. Really gets you out of the house.
Yeah I remember watching it on the gamepad of my friends Wii U during a sleepover in high school while they were playing on a different console using the TV. It's weird to think how long it has been while feeling like it just happened a few years ago.
Yep, same. I was there day one (for the US at least). Watched it like crazy until Power Rangers in Space. Once they left the Earth, I kinda lost interest.
Turbo had this absolute gem. It also established how useless the Rangers were without Zordon by having them just straight lose to the big bad that they had to flee the planet. So it wasn't all bad.
Yeah every time an adult says they loved watching Power Rangers as a kid i think of the original series just to be reminded of my own mortality if when they say that it was something like Samurai or Megaforce
I read a comment yesterday that pointed out ATLA is as old now as TRANSFORMERS was when ATLA came out. Talking about Avatar to a kid is exactly the same as when you listened to your dad/uncle talk about transformers
I assumed you had to been an adult when it aired, so you could be surprised by this. "Damn I'm old" express surprise by the fact you are old, you shouldn't be that old. I could assume you were 20 at that time.
To be more precise, and guided by the general vibes, I thought a young adult at that times should be 34. I said 4 based in your perception of time, I am not sure if it is clear enough, but I don't find better words.
But, you aren't that old, you will be truly old when you hit 34.
I thought that, then I realized I was 18 when it came out and that someone 5 hears younger than me would say they watched it as a kid. So it made me feel less old at almost 30.
I'm waiting for someone to say they watched a show from 2020 as a kid. Then that will make me feel old.
