| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Good episode, though yet again it stops at the best part. I was really hoping to see the battle against N and Ghetsis's breakdown afterward. I have to say though, this might have been the most faithful adaptation of the games we've had so far. Some scenes were recreated 1 to 1 from the games. |

| @FlyingDunsparce this is what you should be doing. |
 |
| @KANLen09 Thanks, I was trying to work out how to embed the video |
| Was gonna post the episode soon with the YT embed vid for anyone watching this, but you beat me to the punch, so yeah I'm fine with that actually. |
|
| Best episode so far, and that's not just me being a big fan of Unova talking. Was great to see the Ghetsis narrative, and I liked how they kept the detail that Ghetsis doesn't use his right arm. Was not expecting that N voice, though. Surprised me a little. |
| "Such honors may please a weakling, but I am strong." "There are two kinds of people in the world: those who are (me), and those who are not." "The Sorcerer King is Justice and weakness is a sin. All hail Ainz Ooal Gown!" "Arrivederci." |
| By far the best episode. Black/White are my favourite Stories next to Diamond and Pearl. I would still have liked to see the awakening of Reshiram though. In the back of N's room, you can see some Rare Candy lying around. Nice Easter egg, as you can also find one in the games there. |

| N story: followed a creepy man that appeared in the middle of the woods and became leader of a cult. How I hate color correction. If they made a English dub, Zekrom could say "Oh yeaah" when breaking through the wall. Im happy to see Hilda. |
 |
| Oh? You're approaching me? Instead of running away, you're coming right to me? |
| I never got the chance to play these games, but this episode brought back out my desire to play this generation, which I guess was probably the point. |
 |
| Gen 5 always had m favorite story in the games, and this episode did it justice, that was great. My favorite episode so far. |
 |
| Once again, another great episode. The last few have had a focus more on the climactic finale moments for the last few gens, but this one did a little more and focused more on Ghetsis and N's relationship and their ideals being conveyed. Gen 5's strongest suit is without a doubt the storytelling, so I'm glad they focused more on that for this one. The art style even seemed to fit more with how the old CGs looked. |
| The coolest part of this episode is how whilst in N's room the aspect ratio turns to 4:3 - kind of a way of adapting the eeriness of N's room in anime form |
| Damn. I've never played Pokemon black/white or white2/black2, but seeing this really makes me want to give them a go. ^^ |
 |
| Great episode. Really reminded me of those cutscenes and events that took place in the game lol. |

| Honestly didn't like the past few episodes at all with the bits and pieces of stories patched together from here and there. |
 |
There is an exponential difference in quality between the first 3 episodes and this one. Seeing the opening scene of the game getting adapted gave me goosebumps. The only problem with the episode was the dimming during the fight because of the electric moves of Zekrom. N having the Zekrom instead of the Reshiram also fits in because of the search of ideals and truth respectively. I have been hating the art design of all the previous episodes but they brought in the art director of Dynazenon and it looked beautiful. Even the episode director seems to have ties with a couple of Trigger anime and him also being listed as the director for the last episode means another excellent episode. All in all, this was beautifully adapted and might be the most faithful Pokemon game adaptation ever. |
| I absolutely loved this episode as someone who is a fan of the Gen 5 story. N looked really badass. |
 |
| yep definitely seen this one already too lmao, must've seen broadcast somewhere and not realised what it was to record it on my list. Or simply forgot to |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| definitely my favourite episode so far, i might be biased since unova's always been my favourite but i just absolutely loved it and it felt so nostalgic. It was super cool to see the black & white opening scene reanimated, I'd love if Pokemon did more projects like this that maybe went further in depth for each region instead of just a few minutes for each |
