Hey everyone. Mixing things up from making my regular LPs, I’ve started a series where I review TV shows based on video games! This project is funded by my Patrons and features artwork by ILWP.

No isms or phobias welcome here.
If my take on a show you hold dear is negative, please remember that it’s not a dig on you. Nostalgia can be a powerful thing!

My landlords don’t accept YouTube views… and even if they did, I wouldn’t have enough to pay them:
Waddle Dees are an arm of the bourgeoisie. I know it hurts but we have to accept this.
Having alternated between a number of the subbed and dubbed episodes with friends, I will say that either form of the show is surprisingly good for a monster of the week/Saturday morning-type series. It’s all pretty good! …other than an episode featuring an expy of a notable TERF author of wizard books you may have heard of. I guess if that’s the worst-aged thing on the show, the rest of it must be pretty solid, at least.
Taking my first dip into live action, I try to catch a master thief with the help of a stern chief and an acapella group. Somehow Rockapella only has 5.8k subs, so we should try to rectify that: https://www.youtube.com/user/RockapellaDotCom/
As a representative of the Indigo League’s legal department, I’ve been informed that all of my talking points in this video are purely conjecture and should not be taken seriously. Especially within a court of law.
Did Gary get fake badges, or is he actually so conscious of some of the more dubious gyms in Kanto that he went out of his way to get ten, just to make sure he was legit?
79 episodes? 79 episodes?! When Chip and Ironicus did an anime theater of this I figured it lasted, like, five.
It’s always a shame when it seems like the writers have way more fun with the secondary characters instead of the main ones. Excited Paleontologist Dad and Stoner Mom are baseline way better than Dick Team Anime Kid Trio and Evil Pokemon Organization Amalgamation. They’re not good enough to make me want to watch Dinosaur King, but I do feel bad for whoever could have written a better Saturday morning show than what they ended up doing.
Watching the 2016 anime adaptation(?) of Phantasy Star Online 2. I’m only now realising that by trying out the game and actually enjoying it, I’ve completely fallen into the show’s hands… meh, no regrets: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1056640/Phantasy_Star_Online_2/
