I too have found Ash to be frustrating at times. However, I always admired his attitude of not letting his record of losses get to him and how he would get up and go onto the next region and begin his new adventures. It's sad that we're not going to have that anymore. Although I've wanted Pokemon to take a similar route to Yu-Gi-Oh in terms of freshening up its cast of characters ever few years or so...now that they're doing just that...it's been conflicting for me because I can't believe Ash's journey is really coming to an end. But I'm glad they're ending it where they are because I would hate to see his world champion status getting retconned for some stupid reason. Regardless, I hate the fact he's leaving...but I'm glad I got to see his growth as a Pokemon trainer over the years.

@Dranzerstorm:

I think it's absolutely hilarious, but some people are very analytical about the relationship dynamics of certain characters and how inconsistent and "problematic" they are. Also, the setting makes it sort of a morality-bender where it's tough to determine what the "rules" are.

Since it's a comedy, I try to take things with a grain of salt in terms of story, and there are certain gripes I have about some things. However, the animation, characters, and the music is so good it greatly makes up for its drawbacks.

@Dranzerstorm:

A lot of online discourse regarding it has been mixed.
I just think it's really funny.

Love the nod to "Helluva Boss."
Vivziepop's shows are really freakin' good.
