Ultra Beasts Appear In Pokemon Sun And Moon!

The Ultra Beasts are coming and they were finally seen in a new trailer. These Ultra Beasts are special in that they are version exclusive. Pokemon games are definitely known for making sure their games have exclusives.

Two of the Ultra Beasts were shown off yet they are honestly both the second to be found in the games. It just goes to show that old habits die hard and I do find that refreshing as even small changes can really change the game.

First of all here is UB-O2 Absorption who is exclusive to Pokemon Sun. In Japan his name is UB-02 Expansion. I’m unsure why the names are so different because while they may sort of mean similar things they aren’t synonyms. This muscular looking fellow is thought by some to be similar  to Gladios the Enforcer of Team Skull. Some people are also really finding this Pokemon to interesting in unconventional ways to do its muscular form.

Second of all is UB-02 Beauty who is exclusive to Pokemon Moon. Clearly this Ultra Beast is beautiful but you can tell that she is not to be trifled with. Many are thinking she bares a striking resemblance to Lusamine the head of the Aether Foundation.

In the trailer that was released it shows off the appearance of these two beasts as well as them fighting Tapu Koko the legendary guardian of the First Island in Sun and Moon. So clearly these Beasts are antagonistic, if they weren’t Tapu Koko wouldn’t appear to protect.

I am curious how many more Ultra Beasts we will see in this new game. I am also curious how these Pokemon will play into the story. As usual I will keep you informed of Pokemon Sun and Moon news as we head closer to the November 18th release date!

You’re the Worst SN3 EP3 – ‘Bad News, Dude’s Dead’

Following the ending of the second episode of the season Gretchen finds her therapist at a restaurant and asks for her help. She can’t bare to tell Jimmy his Father has died after he sold his book. She tells her that of course she has to tell him even if it may be ugly.

She is about to tell him when he promises a vacation because she is going to be going on a nice journey with him.

Lindsey is freaking out about stabbing Paul because his wound keeps getting reinfected. Lindsey tells her she shouldn’t tell Jimmy about what is going on.

Lindsey and Gretchen go into Edgar’s work and  try to tell him their secret. Edgar is blown away by this thought and sinks down to a bench. He is one of the only ones to wear his heart and feelings on his sleeve. Gretchen then comes up with the idea that they invite everyone over for a big celebration of his book being sold. Of course this is supposed to be a cover and she hopes the guests will all tell Jimmy his dad has died.

Jimmy comes in upset with his publisher and ready to go write his book. Gretchen wants them all to tell him his dad died when he surprises her with a “Pets of Instagram” cruise. As always she throws all caution to the wind and begins to party. Lindsey’s husband Paul gets Champagne in his wound after Gretchen sprays him with it.

Edgar is the only one to not be able to party because he is the only one who seems to be able to feel anything. Jimmy sees all the people in his party and thinks they don’t want him to succeed. Jimmy goes to gather his heckle file to heckle everyone so he can work.

Edgar is convinced to go down and tell him the news. But ends up instilling in him an idea to call his dad and heckle him. Edgar obviously couldn’t bring himself to do it anyway as he really is the most emotional of the group at least on the surface.

Lindsey realizes she does actually love Paul when he sticks up for her, in a beautiful scene. She was trying to “incept” herself into loving him and now its come true. When Edgar comes running up to tell them the news they all leave. Edgar contemplates his life and it is suggested that he get help which he knows.

Gretchen finally tells him when she hears him calling his Dad to heckle him but ends up just saying that he sold a book. When she tells him Jimmy is literally unable to speak. But I mean it is rather expected as he was on top of the world and then it all came crashing down.

Another gripping episode of You’re the Worst. As comedic as it is dark and oh so genuine. Death is something that is often hard to talk about and this show pulled off all the emotions involved sublimely. All these characters are real in their own ways and they all feel. It can be hard to really show emotion sometimes in shows because these types of emotion can be so visceral.

Can’t wait for Episode 4 “Men Get Strong” to see how Jimmy really takes this news.

Gamer Flashback-Pokemon Red

Picture if you will a small boy, wanting nothing more then to explore the world. Suddenly he is gifted a red cartridge with a Dragon of orange on the cover.

He knew of the Pokemon and had enjoyed the show. Now it was his turn to dive in.

He named his character after himself and set off on a journey. With Squirtle as his first ever Pokemon, he forges a pact with himself. From this moment on he will always start out with the water type.

He has no idea what awaits him but he is thrilled nonetheless. He battles countless foes and makes his team. They may not be level 100 like his cousin but they are his friends.

He does beat everyone in his way and is happy with himself. He cares not for level 100 as long as he has his trusty crew of Pokemon behind him.

Now it’s years later and he is ready for Sun and Moon. The young man is now grown but his childlike wonder for the world of Pokemon will never cease.

Pokemon Generations Shorts Incoming!

 

Pokemon animation usually just consists of Ash’s escapades and while the show is pretty great there is a need for something more.

Ever since Pokemon began people have wanted to see the battles in all their glory. Sometimes the anime can be a little tame for the older viewers.

Ever since they released the Red and Blue Special fans have been clamoring for more.

Now we are getting what we have asked for in the form of shorts. Shorts with all the action and realism they could fit into a Pokemon series.

This series will run until December 23 of this year and show off some of the greatest moments in Pokemon lore.

The poster is amazing and shows off the Villainous leaders as they are central to much of the series plot.

I am excited to see more and see these amazing scenes fully realized. The Red and Blue Special was fantastic. If this is as good then I will be happy. Clearly they are bringing their A game with this series.

Look for it on YouTube and get ready to be blown away by Pokemon Action! The generations are coming and they will be bringing on an onslaught of the best Pokemon has to offer.

Fairy Tail Review And Primer

Fairy Tail is a fantastic series created by Hiro Mashima. Hiro Mashima created the stellar series Rave Master which really is a classic Anime. This series which has been going on now for 10 years and has recently hit a landmark 500 chapters is just as amazing.

I have been a fan of this anime since I came into contact with it. A wondrous story of mages and the guild that is more like a family and their way of life. They come into contact with so many vicious and terrible wizards and beasts and yet always manage to pull through. Through the power of magic and friendship these characters really have done so much.

There is also the power of love flowing through the story as real relationships form between characters. It is so nice seeing how things happen in this magnificent series. It mainly focuses on Natsu Dragneel, a fiery mage raised by a dragon named Igneel. One day Igneel vanishes leaving young Natsu to fend for himself, though he did teach him his fire dragon magic.

Natsu joins Fairy Tail and grows up making friends with the next generation of wizards. The guild has its ups and downs as they characters really are so well developed. There are two time skips that change up the world of Fairy Tail. One interestingly doesn’t age any of the wizards of Fairy Tail. This idea is pretty great as it shows honestly how strong these wizards are and how much they affect the world around them.

Son Of Zorn SN1 EP1 – ‘Return To Orange County’

Son of Zorn is a new series that is on its way to Fox. While the series doesn’t premiere until September 25th, the first episode was shown off to bring in viewers. It tells the story of a He-Man type character coming to live in the real world. Played by Jason Sudeikis, it seems like a very interesting show idea.

He comes from a world that is animated and is himself animated. He wants nothing more then to reconnect with his son and his ex-wife. But coming from an animated world he really has no idea how to raise deal with a human child.

In the first episode he realizes that he will lose his son if he doesn’t stay around. He decides to stay and get an apartment and a real job. His son is clearly put off by his whole attempt as he was never there for the boy except for sporadic weekends every year.

Humorously enough the young man does still love his father, he really just wishes he wouldn’t show up without a shirt, yelling his name and waving a sword around.  Of course this is what his father does as he really does not know anything else.

Zorn really decides to try with his son and ends up spending an evening with him. He tries to make things right with him but his son is totally different then what he wanted him to be. As his son is flirted with he gets in his way making it that much more difficult to make amends.

The next day at work he is told to come talk to his boss as they found a table cleaved in twain. She tells him he has passion and that if he was a little more considerate he might do well at this job. Humorously he tells her that she is a good guy, as he comes from a place where men are the only beings of strength.

Zorn then gets his son a Death Hawk which he can ride. He wants his son to feel like a grown man. His son is actually quite happy that his dad actually listened to him but he is not able to keep the giant bird. As he kills the giant bird, the waitress drives by and is disgusted by the brutal scene before her.

The semi final shot of the episode shows Zorn’s son brushing his teeth zooming out to show that his legs in fact are animated. Then it follows with his soon to be stepfather washing the drive way of the Death Hawk’s blood.

Honestly, I am unsure how long this series will actually last. It could conceivably end after one season, if it doesn’t hit the spot for viewers.I did find it interesting but really am curious about how this show will continue to play out.

There really hasn’t been an hybrid show like this, but honestly it is pretty well done. It takes the idea of a classic 80’s cartoon and mashes it with a situational family oriented comedy. Of course it may not be appropriate for all ages but if you read between the lines it looks like at its crux it is about a father fixing his mistakes, and that is nice.

 

One Piece vs DBZ Is Coming To A 3DS Near You!

A magical thing is happening. Though not yet announced anywhere but Japan two titanic anime series are uniting to fight.

Arc systems who released Dragon Ball Z Budoten and is now making One Piece Grand Pirate Colosseum are opening a golden door.

The door between these two series will be open with an update. Soon players will be able to see and play through dream fights.

This is really something spectacular. Both of these series are two of the greatest anime ever. To see them come together like this is astonishing. I’m curious which match ups people are excited for.

The possibilities are endless. I’m excited for the future and to see what other combinationa of anime universe’s could come from it.

Pokemon Sun And Moon Anime News!

The Pokemon Anime is still going strong after years of Ash’s adventures. This show will honestly continue as long as people show interest in the world of Pokemon.

It has recently been shown that the next series of Pokemon which is titled Pokemon Sun and Moon the Anime is coming soon. It will obviously coincide with the release of the games in Japan.

The odd thing about this season is that Ash will be working to graduate school. Clearly he isn’t giving up his ambition to become a Pokemon Master but it looks like he realizes he has some learning to do.

In the XYZ Anime he got all the way to second place in the Kalos League but he has been unable to truly win a league. It looks like Ash is finally going to get the education he hasn’t gotten. Though honestly I think Ash has learned so much just journeying around the Pokemon world.

It looks like this show will introduce us to many new characters and clearly Ash will continue to catch new Pokemon. I am curious to see how this series plays out though. There will definitely be a new status quo in this series but I think it will still be just as Pokemon as ever.

Ash will also gain a Z Ring and be able to unleash powerful moves with his Pokemon. I am curious if he will bring back old Pokemon as he really does have quite the group of Pokemon. So many Pokemon that he has bonded with and do truly love him.

He will also be journeying with the energetic Mallow, a trial captain, similar to Gym Leaders yet different. Her partner is Bounsweet and she clearly loves to cook. I’m curious how they will meet, and how honestly Ash will meet all of the characters shown on the poster.

It really does show so much that fans will be able to analyze and think about as we wait for the show, especially with the amount of news we are getting now. Pokemon is on the minds of its fans non stop I am sure.

Look forward to more news about this anime in the coming weeks. Plus with a little less then 10 weeks to go, Pokemon Sun and Moon is almost within our grasps!

Happi Vs Drag- An All New 80’s Style Cartoon!

If you are a lover of cartoons and enjoyed the cartoons of the 80’s then you might want to take note. Happi Vs Drag is a new series that could take the world by storm if it is funded. This wild show will focus on two teams and their fight. Think back to GI Joe and the like as that is what it could be like.

All of the characters are wild and crazy with their own personalities. Devon McBride-Wilson is a creative man who just wants to inject some good old fashioned action into the cartoon line up. Honestly from what he has on his Kickstarter he really does have a lot of good ideas.

His characters are really thought out and you can see how much passion he has for actually getting this out there. Taking place in New Illinois, the Happi agents want nothing more than to take out their nemeses the agents of Drag. Led by Kylie an African Hunting dog the team will set out to combat their foes in every episode.

While their may be implied lessons in episodes it will be focused mainly on action. This show also will be just like 80’s cartoons in that the episodes will rarely if at all have any connection to past episodes. It will be like the past episode didn’t happen which is integral to an 80’s cartoon. The endless battle for justice is all that matters any way.

For this Kickstarter the creator is just asking for help in producing a six minute short that he can send off to networks. Something to show them he means business. With the help of the backers he is hoping to show them that people actually care about this endeavor. I really do wish him the best of luck as Kickstarter is a cruel and tenuous game. You never know who is going to fail and who is going to succeed.

I highly encourage you all to check out his Kickstarter for all of the details as that is where you can see how much he is pushing for this project. I do really think Kickstarter is such a magnificent site as so many great things are actually coming from its use. So, hopefully the devilish Drag will fall to the outstanding agents of Happi. With the world’s help we may see this show become something huge and it may just bring on a resurgence of the classic action cartoon.

Amazing World of Gumball SN5 EP3 -‘The Guy’

The Amazing World of Gumball’s semi final season is good, just as good as Gumball has ever been. They really have found a way of doing things that works. The characters have all grown in just the right way that the show is always able to do something new.

This episode focuses on Anais trying to make and keep a friend. Anais is a troubled genius four year old and the sister of Gumball. She has trouble trying to make friends and it is rather funny as in this episode she is seen as a monster. In a predator prey situation, she runs around the school trying to make people her friends but to no avail.

Suddenly she sees a new character and when she asks him to be friends he readily accepts. Gumball always the one to put a damper on anyone’s parade because he is pretty egocentric points out something might be wrong with the guy.

Anais tries not to let this bother her and keeps hanging out with Josh. But soon enough Gumball gets into her head as she realizes that nothing is wrong with Josh. So if nothing is wrong with Josh, could something actually be wrong with her? This is such a real plight especially for a young person. People are always unsure about making new friends especially when it really can be so hard to do so.

Gumball wants to make sure nothing is wrong with Josh and sets up humorous tricks to test him. When Josh realizes what is going on he leaves Anais in the dust and storms off.

Gumball and his fish brother Darwin realize that something needs to be done and they try to think of  a way to fix things. Gumball and Darwin are imaginative to say the least and their ideas all would end up in failure. So finally they decide to grovel.

Josh realizes that they love their sister and that is enough to make him forgive her. But then he shows his true colors by revealing he is giving all his money to a frog that will send them to the future. Gumball was right all along Josh, is a weirdo.

Honestly Gumball is a show that often time reaches such a beautiful and real end. The episodes can even teach things if you listen.
