Judgement Day! (368)

[Phantom_Bugsy]

Not a lot of people seem to like this ep...o___0

Sh*t, that means I would have loved it ; ; *WEEP*

Any clue if it's gonna re-air?

[Medea]

^Well, I know it won't air within the next 7 days!

[Phantom_Bugsy]

...teh fux. That's not fair :<

WHY MUST I BE SO LAZY?! *goes to find some way to punish herself for missing it*

[Emma Iveli]

*begins crazy P.O.A. rant* That was insane what 4kids did! A snadwitch can't roll down a hill. It's just as bas the "cookies" from the second One Piece episode (it had the techure of a rice ball but somehow in Zoro's mouth became not-smashed up cookies). Join the P.O.A. *ends Crazy P.O.A. rant*

Sorry about that, any ways I liked the episode. I might be only the only one who caught the subtle Sailor Moon refrneces, well in the begging Brock ran with toast in his mought like Usagi and I'm pretty sure 4kids caught that too other wise they wouldn't have named the Pro at the school Serena. Also looks like Max dosn't know as much about Pokemon as he thinks he does.

The only thing I wanna see with peanut butter and jelly in this ep is Jimmy. Covered in it. Naked. Mm-mm-MM.

O_o... ^_^;;;... -_-... That's all I have to say.

[S.Suikun]

Worst. Animation. Ever. Worst. Animation. Edit. Ever.

Yet it actually wasn't too bad for a filler. No doubt the continuity was pleasing, but the episode actually covered an important battling aspect that hadn't been explored before. I think May's ignorance of the Pokemon at the beginning would have been much funnier if she actually got Wartortle's name right, followed by Max telling her it's a Squirtle.

*watches the dub onigiri scene* KHHHAAANNNNN~~!~~!!~!!!1111!!

That edit was very, very obvious. Moreso than even the One Piece edits!X_x It now makes this episode even more infamous, since it also has the worst animation and artwork in an Advanced Generation episode. Other than that, the episode was original...and I got to see Charmeleon~!-^_^- ...Which reminds me, I think Brock mentioned Kanto when he said they were the evolved forms of Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Charmander. Overall, 6.5/10.

[Chosen of Mana]

The Kanto starters are getting to be a little over-showcased, don't you think? >_>;

Otherwise, a good filler. We get to see where all those random judges come from. And did anyone notice that, during the night scene, half the time, part of May's glove was missing?

[Phantom_Bugsy]

O_o... ^_^;;;... -_-... That's all I have to say.

....what? XD I do. I wanna do him like...really really bad. :<

Judges need more attention in the series, IMO. Some of them have been really really hot. Caden, for instance. >3

Maybe we'll see Jimmy ref a future battle?

[Infinite Master Sceptile]

Maybe we'll see Jimmy ref a future battle?

No such luck. Sorina (the teacher lady) told him to be a Pokemon Trainer.
She expelled him from the referee school, because he was incompetent as a referee. Anyway, I liked the episode, though the animation was horrible.

If this really was an illegal tactic, wouldn't a former gym leader like Takeshi know that?

He also knows Jimmy is inexperienced at refereeing and would not know whether or not that was cheating.
All in all, better than I expected, but mostly because of Jimmy and the flashbacks.

[GaryAshRichie]

Well, I really liked this episode. Jimmy...geez, how is it I've never heard of this character until today? So he's like...a drifter who just goes on luck? So cool! I so hope he's going back to Kanto because Ash needs to run into him again.
And I'm glad his teacher expelled him too because that would have been such a lame career for him.

[Eric Cartman]

I liked this episode, and seeing the Kanto starters Never hurts.

[V Faction]

The Sandwich looked out of place with the bad animation. It was actually shaded and drawn well. But then the extremely lacking Poke-Mation, gave it an off look.

[PDL]

well, with the way the sandwich was animated, looked like something out of Sealab 2101 or Aqua Teen Hunger Force...

not that it's a bad thing, though, actually scrap that, it is a bad thing in an anime... (but this would fit well with a cartoon that uses old Hanna-Barbeara stuff, like ATHF)

[Hiraitos Zero aka OCZ]

...teh fux. That's not fair :<

WHY MUST I BE SO LAZY?! *goes to find some way to punish herself for missing it*

I didnt mind missing it,but I felt like a dumbass.3 minutes to when it starts and I went back to sleep,must've been good though.

[Kanadian Kyuubi]

Okay, review time!

Now, I'll save the "talk of doom" for the end, you all know what I mean right?

Jimmy sounded older than he looked, and Sirina sounded great. It's great that we got to see the evolved forms of the Kanto Starters again, voices and all. The opening gag was funny, everyone knows that May hasn't had much interaction with Kanto starters (her own blubasaur and the starters in "A Six Pack Attack"), but I'm suprised that Max was confused about Wartortle wildly enough. Now, I don't think Lombre's unique move at the end of the battle was illegal, if that were the case Zigzagoon's would be banned from battle as they can play dead according to the Pokedex.

After all that, we had one intresting season finale. Gasp, AG Season 2 is over! Now, we start AG Season 3 with the "Island Hopper" filler saga (ending with the most important 2-parter in history, not a filler according to my definitions of a filler), so lets be happy and make sure 4Kids doesn't mess it up...like they did today...

Okay, good part over, now lets discuss the infamous Sandwich Incident. Now, I've seem 4Kids do Onigirl edits before, they just called them different things (Rice Balls, eclairs, ice cream sandwiches). But this goes WAY too far!!! Now, this edit was not only silly, it also defies the laws of physics: Flat objects such as Sandwiches cannot roll, only Onigirl in this case could effectivally roll down a hill. Now, 4Kids has done crazy paint edits before *coughonepiececough*, and sometimes they are very sloppy..

Example:

Ooops, you just painted away some of Luffy's hat!

So, this edit was crazy, but painting away the black stuff or making it more round would have helped better.

17/20

Nice end to AG Season 2, shouldn't have ended with a filler but still...

[Black Marauder]

Saw this episode........it wasnt bad.........Season finale finally@!!!

[Thriller]

Off-Topic: What was 4kids trying to edit out that they had to remove part of Luffy's hat?

On-Topic: They kept Jimmy's name, this makes me think that unless theres a sex-change, Harley will keep his name because Harley is American enough. I didn't pay any attention to the rice ball edit even if they sandwhich was rolling down the hill. Lucky for me, I taped the episode so I can check it again. I had to do something for the last 10 minutes so I'll have to re-watch it again anyway. Oh and it looks like 4Kids is gonna have a hard time with the new title background. They might as well stop that stupid badge case edit since you can't paint edit computer animation so HAH! to you 4Kids, next time don't make such stupid edits.

[Emma Iveli]

Off-Topic: What was 4kids trying to edit out that they had to remove part of Luffy's hat?

I hate to go off-topic but I'll explain: In the olgneal the post that tied Zoro looked like a cross, in an atmept to get rid of it they accendtly erased part of Luffy's hat. Too funny *join the P.O.A.*

[Lil Brother]

...sandwich scene? O.o

*goes and re-watches recording*

Oh! That! I didn't even think about that. Er... burn, 4Kids?

Anyways, this episode was kind of boring. Even the overly-awesome Kanto starter evolutions can't un-scar this. 6/10. So, where did Jimmy start out anyways? The forest didn't look like anything we saw in Kanto... Maybe around the Safari Zone?

[Hiraitos Zero aka OCZ]

Wait.have something to say.

Wtf at the Ongiri edit.Everything else,filler season finale.T'was ok.

[Geodude]

I was confused about one major thing, in the double battle Takeshi apperently did an illegal move that would disqualify him from the battle. (at first i thought it was Fake Out) If this really was an illegal tactic, wouldn't a former gym leader like Takeshi know that?

The whole point of the battle was to test Jimmy's skills as a referee, so that was exactly what Brock was doing. He wanted to see if Jimmy would declare Lombre unable to battle or not.

[Tetsuya-san]

Onigiri edit makes no sense whatsoever. And to think that very soon, we'll be seeing Masamune running down a hill chasing Onigiri. The edit makes me think twice. -_-;

Onigiri can roll, but Jam Sandwiches! I mean, what in the world is that about?

It was a pretty interesting episode nonetheless.

[Kanadian Kyuubi]

Don't worry, if that giant onigirl you were talking about was in the Giant Claydol episode, prepare for the usual, but not the new usual if you know what I mean.

[FightingBlaziken]

Meh, I didn't like this episode that much. The only 2 parts I liked is when Jimmy's Wartortle evolved into Blastoise. I also like the part in the beginning where May mistook the 2nd stages Kanto starters for there pre/evolutions. Other than those parts, the episode was quite boring.

[Thriller]

    Spoiler:

Show Spoiler

 
If they edit Massamune's Rice Balls at least we won't have to make a wasted pun with Ash's Glalie.
 

I re-watched the episode via recording today since I missed the last quarter so more comments.

-TR's Mecha of the day looked so bland and dull inside.
-Why is it that the Cotd's Pokemon can just suddenly evolve but Pokemn like Ash's Corphish never do?
-Jimmy was a retard for not keeping the Magikarp. Of course he would'nt have Charmeleon if he kept it.
-Was the few 'Misty' reference's 4Kids add-ons?
