| OMG Pokemon Net Anime <3 Thanks for the news Sakana-san! P.S. 300th post, woot! |
| I will tune in, amazing. |
| Web animation series appears to be what Pokémon should focus on more. Generations was fun, and although I do wish there was more to it, it was an interesting place to take the franchise. The main anime's not going there for a while it looks like, so to have a little side-thing all about it will help it. SwSh has been disappointing, so hopefully seeing Galar animated will do the region wonders. I'm gonna wait 'til all these episodes are out before I watch, though, given the short duration of each episode. |

| Uh, I'm pretty sure that this was revealed by The Pokémon Company, not Nintendo. It's even on the source. |
| Woah, Shingo Yamashita as director? Didn't expect that. The rest of staff looks absolutely amazing as well. This is a must-watch for every sakuga fan. |
