There's actually a pretty understandable reason for all the sexualization in Electric Tale. The artist for it... well, he used to do Hentai. I have no idea WHY they'd hire a hentai artist for a Pokemon manga, but for some reason they did. That's why it's so extreme compared to all other Pokemon manga.
Anirudh Kalathil In the third episode of the anime, Kasumi (Misty) said this in the original Japanese: This is absolutely the worst morning I've had in my *10 years of life*!
Rafael Patrón They actually stated in the Japanese version of the second movie that they acted quote "Love-bu, love-bu all the time". It's been cannon this whole time in Japan but 4Kids kept it from us!
Man, you seriously ooze your passion for Pokémon. I find your videos quite entertaining and interesting. Watching your videos about Pokémon is like marathoning Bob Ross' show. Keep up the good work.
@Jank Paul Yeah with a main character that actually knows what he's doing or seems to learn to for instance :P. I was hyped to start rewatching pokémon only to be dissappointed about what a childshow it really is. Would definitely watch an actual anime from a story about pokémon :). Because let's face it, calling pokémon an anime serie is really pushing it. It's a childshow at best.
Same, I'd love a senien series, I'd even take a shounen series. As it is, the series (Sun and Moon) seemes to be aimed at even younger kids than it used to be.
Given that this video is outdated, there is a lot more recent stuff in Adventures that has been censored. Like the time Sapphire sniffed a Zigzagoon's butthole, or the time in the B/W arc when the gym leaders got crucified, or when Y got her shirt stolen and was temporarily topless, or the many times Emerald randomly takes a leak off ledges, or the time...
Yeah... When that Arbok got killed... I kinda had to stare at that page for about a half an hour before I processed that a Pokemon actually just died...
Koga's Arbok didn't die though. If you read through it later, it's explained that the Arbok can regenerate its body, so long as the head stays in tact. Sort of like a worm.
i found that its easier to believe koga is a complete liar to both yellow and himself. he just caught a second arbok and is always crying on the inside at the horrid loss of "bubbles the arbok".
Yeah, minor spoilers: That Arbok is fine. Apparently in the manga series, Arbok's markings denote different abilities. Koga's Arbok can regenerate as long as the head is intact. This is explained when he fought Agatha alongside Blue. Or Green . . . Red's rival (yes, the Kanto Elite Four are evil/misguided).
Michael Clark I've said for a while that the manga is for those who felt the anime was too immature. I can say that Pokemon Adventures is easily one of my favorite ways to experience Pokemon, and is just a straight up great series.
I absolutely agree! After watching so many mistakes and inconsistencies from the anime, I decided to give the Pokemon manga a chance. It has deep stories, amazing and memorable battles, interesting characters, character development and best of all, no Ash. It is the complete opposite of the anime. It's a shame that more people don't read it. They still continue to defend the anime, even though there is nothing redeeming about.
+Michael Clark Despite obvious shortcomings with characters and story, I feel the anime does the Pokémon themselves right. The voices and personalities tend to fit well and the sizes feel more accurate to how they really would be. For example: each of the legendary Golem trio is stated to be around 5'5 in the games, but in the anime and movies they are MASSIVE, each one at least 15 feet tall. Not to mention their king truly living up to the "Colossal Pokémon" name; Regigigas has to be at least 25 feet tall in the movies.
Man, it's boring talking to myself, but all the trainers are in Game Stop waiting for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire or however you call it. Nobody is using me :/
Ono used FANSERVICE A critical hit! US Pokemon fanbase uses CENSORSHIP Its not very effective. Ono used UNDERAGE SEXUALIZATION US Pokemon fanbase is confused US Pokemon fanbase hurt itself in its confusion US Pokeman fanbase fainted
I was watching My Neighbour Totoro a bit ago, and when I got to the father/daughter bathing scene I had no problems. The two girls, ranging from 8 to around 5, have next to no breasts and any ass or genitalia is censored with water and soap froth. The father wasn't eyeing his daughters or anything, and it was a relatively very cute family moment. And then boobified Misty became the new Almighty Boob Overlord and now I don't know anything anymore.
haha, I actually have original printings of all the novels. Including that rare 4th volume. Lets face it it was an awesome epilogue for jessy and james. Also the battle battle between the two charzards just really show how dangerous that pokemon can be to one another.
i had read the manga before this (adventures v.2) and i really love what they do with it. I know they are different characters, but red, green, blue yellow and all the other background characters are just so much deeper than in the anime. i really love the manga and i'm glad you talked about them, exposing more people to one of my favorite aspects of the pokemon franchise.
Why the hell did they brought up Crys (Crystal- Pokemon Adventures) mother to look like an 18 years-old? She doesn't look like a mother she looks like the sister who likes more to party!
+Phacteria Funny thing is that in America, Brawl got an ESRB T rating, while the fourth installment is rated E10+. Here in Europe, they are both given PEGI 12 ratings.
Funny thing about the Electric Tale of Pikachu: It's artist, Toshihiro Ono, is well known for being a hentai artist, under the pen name Kamirenjaku Sanpei. That just explains way too much about the Japanese release of EToP.
You forgot to mention the main reason for Electric Tale of Pikachu's raunchiness. The guy who illustrated it also does hentai (porn) manga. In fact, he was pretty much exclusively a hentai artist until he did this. This explains A LOT. I guess it's roughtly the equivalent of hiring a porn star as the lead on a kids show.
Not even remotely equivalent... unless she was dressed for what she considers "a normal day" on set. Takes self awareness and many such stars can find good work in more modest places. The artist just didn't care what he was making or who it was for.
Sexualized minors, nudity, and sexualization in general seems to be a far less touchy subject, and sometimes maybe even humorous in Japan. I don't really understand, but it would be very interesting to have someone Japanese try to explain this. I also notice that although a sexualized 12 year old girl is obviously pedophilia, Misty in this manga doesn't look 12 at all. She looks like a normally developed girl in her late adolescence, or even adulthood, which puts physical attraction in a more grey-area. Its almost like an 18 year old girl TOLD YOU she was 12. What would you feel then?
The only part that I actually view is pedophilia is Brock creeping on Misty. It doesn't matter what she looks like, she's still only 12 years old. Any guy 17 and below is fine for being sexually attracted to her. Once you hit above 18 it gets weird. Mostly because when you hit adult age it starts hitting the "that could be my dad" age zone.
i think it was somewhere around 14 or 13 when there is legal to be "perverse" and rest of the world sees it as pedophilia and other blaa blaa blaa what ever bullshit.
MrAnimepredator interesting note: in the original dragon ball manga goku said he was 14. they changed it in the second volume to say he was 11. (saying he didn't know how to count that high)this was because there was frontal nudity in volume 2 and in japan frontal nudity of a 14 year old=porn frontal nudity under 12 is just kids playing around.
Mighty Tighty Whitey And I'm Smuggling Plums yea and goku takes her panties of and freaks out, and other stuff. the original dragon ball was more for mature taste than dragon ball z. but yes.
Thank God they censored them all. Actually, the 'art' aren't only disgusting, but also disturbing and highly unimportant for those who still have healthy mind -_-
I agree, while it's Japan, and the stories were meant to a bit darker, it's still a bit off-putting to see a series geared at children to have such disturbing art. Kinda like how weird it was to see UKs take on Sonic with STC.
Jaydn W Thing is, we're kinda talking about the Pokemon manga. I find it cooler when I get to see the uncensored versions, too. But just like JWittz and OP, I find the censored version much superior, because, like, seriously. It's for kids guys.
+HackedGlitch265 But then, it still has dark themes. From child abuse and a good chunk of people dying in RBE, to tales of disillusionment and close friends being controlled in X&Y. ...Also mind fucking in BW.
back then pokemon was not as popular as it is now so the creator said that back then he had alot more creative freedom. he decided to ground himself more the more popular pokemon got.
***** It's still sexualization of an underage character. Also, how does the other characters in the manga being her age justify what's essentially softcore child porn?
Jeddostotle7 You said that it was 'pedophilia' and I was just stating that they didn't show any nudity at all. I also said that it couldn't be pedophilia from a character point of view because the characters were the same age, eliminating that possibility.
I remember reading the Crys’ mother mean look part and thought “wait! This doesn’t look right, am I reading a censored manga???” As I looked into it my thoughts were right. Yup, that was a slap!😆
When JWittz was talking about Misty wishing her breasts would "evolved" despite her being only 12 years it reminded me of the conversations I had with my nieces and cousins. The most memorable one being "I don't want them too big, yours are perfect" to which I responded "I'm 30, you're 13 so you have a lot of growing up to do in all areas". Great video as always JWittz and this kind of censorship is really dumb and proves that Japanese society is much more advance than our own naive American society IMO.
7:09 Its even more hilarious that this particular scene is in the anime, and only the guys expressions (and the existance of the Eevee kid in said episode) and a "Mishap" were the only changes.
ShulkFeelingIt A Trigger-animated Pokemon series? Oh hell yes! Pikachu's Volt Tackle can destroy a whole city and Ash is a badass protagonist... That would be fun.
I actually remember buying the Pokemon comics when I was a kid, had the issue of Pokemon Adventures with the Pokemon race actually. I remember being so confused because it wasn't the same as the show or anime. But I held onto those for years till I gave them to a friend who collected manga.
For those saying Japan is creepy: this is called "cultural differences" I mean, let's be real, every culture that looks at another will always find at least one thing they dislike about it, but I still think it is rude to judge it so rudely because of that. You do not know their standards, how they grew up or anything, so do not say they are corrupt people. They are also in the complete opposite of us in one factor. For a notable example said in this video, take a look at how we kept all of the violent stuff from that manga in our version. In recent years, Japan treats violence how we treat sexuality, and I am talking heavy censorship here. And when I say heavy, I am not exaggerating. I am talking worse than how we censor sexuality. Cultures are always different, so to say one is just weird, I find it disturbing. You can say what the thing is in general is weird, but don't call _them_ weird. They do not deserve that because they grew up with different morals, standards and more that they find acceptable. Cultures are different, hence the term; so get over it.
@@teabaggin3625 this manga is for boys 10-15, so I don't see the problem in sexualizing characters that the readers would see that way well they are that age.
Wait misty is 12 years old and she is allowed to travel the world with people she has never seen before where are her parents or sisters to take care of her and tell her that's a bad idea
Dont forget ash, left school and his home at 10 years old to travel the world with a pokemon that shocked him many times in a lab that a professor kept away.
Colton Kelsey No actually, it's shockingly the opposite. Brock's mother simply left in Japanese. The 4Kids version strangely enough edited it UP to death since they didn't want Brock to have two dedbeat parents. Unfortunately, this backfired on them horrible when she was brought back for a special episode...
in Pokémon adventures some female characters get sexualized too, and every time this happens there is also a joke about it hiding beyond the corner (usually whenever you see Gold)
Here's the comment section thingy: 25% "OMAGUDDDD MUSTU HAZ BUG BREZZZTSSSSSS!!!!!!!!@14!#" 50% "Hentai pokemans?" or "thaz fukd up" 15% "(number 10-14) is adult age in Japan." 14% "I NEED AN APOLOGY FOR SHOWING ME (insert barely offensive thing here) WITTZ!!!" 1% Actual Comments.
-_- All right I realize how manga just HAS to include their colossal boobs that are literally 4x the size of the character's head, but seriously? THIS is just ridiculous. Now I would understand it if the anime was intended for teenagers or adults with no fanservice already, but the fanservice got added in later but POKEMON IS A CHILDREN'S ANIME FOR GOD SAKES!!!! I DID NOT NEED TO SEE MISTY LOOKING LIKE A 24 YEAR OLD SUPER MODEL WHEN SHE WAS MY 12 YEAR OLD ROLE MODEL WHEN I WAS LIKE.... 7 -_- thanks for spoiling my childhood, fanservice...
what you dont understand is that japan and america has different standards of what is publicly acceptable or not.. hence the censorship.. the thought of huge knockers to japan in anime is a common occurence in anime.. kinda like how bulma ran in her underwear in DBZ. but yes.. we need some more knockers
Pokemon is a children's anime. O.K I don't think you can say the same for the mangas. The pokemon in the manga actually die. You can see them spliting in half. Tis' amazing.
I honestly don't see a problem with it because that's the way it was made. I'm a huge advocate for no censorship. I hate everything about it, and it's gets so bad in the West that it becomes downright ignorant. Brock calls rice balls "Donuts" in the English version of the anime. Lord forbid children learn about foods from different cultures! Also fun fact: Japanese breasts are actually getting bigger in recent years the numbers say, actually curvier in general. Anyways, you realize that even the anime is altered from the original right?
if you don't want your children to watch it...its just gonna make them want to more....not to meantion there gonna find alot worse in there life times then comedical anime.
So for those who didn't know, the Eevee kid is Mikey from the episode, " The battling Eevee brothers". Yes... The little boy who didn't want to evolve his Eevee.
Jinx skin color has nothing to do with typical black American people. It's just the coloring base on the Japanese mythology where Jinx abbreviated from. Please get it right.

Calling that pedophilia is a bit of a stretch. How sex and sexuality is viewed in Japan is different than it is in America, and having characters who are essentially the same age as Kasumi/Misty be attracted to her really isn't bad at all.
There are accounts of older business men going after school girls in Japan and vice veersa. Cultural difference or no, that is twisted no matter how I look at it. No better than extreme sugar daddies here.
tazia hall It's not really all that twisted. Nudity is looked at VERY differently in Japan than it is in America. And for your example of business men going after young girls, what does that have to do with anything? Do you really think that doesn't happen in America? What is your point?
The creator of Pokemon claimed Pokemon Special is what he invisioned. It is the closest to the game than any other depiction of Pokemon (except for the games themselves of course lol).
At the beginning you say that we got the manga after the anime, but pokemon adventures actually came before! (kusaka and Mato actually got behind the scenes stuff before the games were finished, which is why early on they occasionaly use beta designs !)
Sorry, guys, but J has a point with the women. Why do they look they have fake boobs. Misty is a tomboy. It wouldn't make sense for her to reveal so much to her friends. I'm not saying that they should be flat but manga artists should go easy on the boob dept.
Or they could cancel the terrible anime we have now and give us an anime adaptation of Adventures. How could they make a game out of a manga based on the games?
Question: is misty 12 in the japanese version as well ? In a lot of adaptation from Japan to USA and Europe, they make the characters younger to aim for a younger audience as well.
kathryn doyle It doesn't mean that all girls lose their virginity at 14. It means that the 14 year olds can give consent. This is just the way that they get away with having younger girls over sexualized in their media.
no one knows Misty's age in the anime, but people assume she's older than ash because she already had her Pokemon and she's a lot taller than him. she's probably 11/12
Well considering they have a negative natural increase rate do to the lack of children being born from a variety of reasons that probably is one of the ways that Japan's government is trying to not become the land of 60+ year old Japanese people and the only people under age 60 are the foreigners .
Andrew .Y I don't really think that lowering the age of consent would change anything...There are so many reasons for having the negative natural increase.
MarioZelda128 I also wanted to mention the fact that they separated the genders further with many things. Like "virtual girlfriends", and stuff similar to that. I can't think of anything better right now, but I watched a movie about that a few days ago. It's called "no sex please, we're japanese"
That is on a newspaper in one of the R/B/Y volumes. The name of the article is "Shocking Case of Poke-Love" and under that it reads "That's the Last Bath I'll Take With my Tentacool!" XD
One of the most recent censorships was made in one of the Emerald chapters where he ( Emerald ) takes a piss from a boat and accidentally pees on his friends. Although you couldn't see it ( his wang ) they still covered him up with a soda can pretending he poured it out. Now you know the real reason Ruby cried.
+TalesOfGamerz My questions are : Why did he waste good soda? Did he accidentally pour it? And who takes a whizz off a boat if there's a lower deck? (Or was he on the lower deck)
I'm reading Pokemon special and I love that a lot, but I see no reason to read the manga about pikachu story. It looks tasteless and I won't read that.
Pokémon Adventures is great! I read all the way up to the Heartgold and Soulsilver chapter and it was a roller-coaster all the way through. Though I didn't like the Gen at the time, Ruby and Sapphire was definitely the highlight of the series. As for the rest, I haven't read yet.
Can someone tell me where I can read or buy Pokemon ReBurst i really wanted to read it when it came out but I just didnt buy it back then. now i cant really find it
There's actually a pretty understandable reason for all the sexualization in Electric Tale. The artist for it... well, he used to do Hentai. I have no idea WHY they'd hire a hentai artist for a Pokemon manga, but for some reason they did. That's why it's so extreme compared to all other Pokemon manga.

He was pretty famous as a hentai artist. Electric Tale of Pikachu is probably the firs non-adult Manga he did.
BigKlingy but why hire a hentai artist.

Huh.
Wait, was she 12 in the anime too? I haven't seen the show since I was tiny, I suppose I always imagined she was significantly older.
She's ten in the anime.
^^^no she is twelve in the anime
Anirudh Kalathil In the third episode of the anime, Kasumi (Misty) said this in the original Japanese: This is absolutely the worst morning I've had in my *10 years of life*!
Her age is: 10 (as of EP003, not stated in dub)

Her mother is a bonafide womanchild, so I think it actually fits.
The age of consent in parts of Japan is thirteen. Creepy.
+William New Sometimes these rating stuff are weird. I would never have thought Super Smash Bros. Brawl was teen rated.
+Phacteria Funny thing is that in America, Brawl got an ESRB T rating, while the fourth installment is rated E10+. Here in Europe, they are both given PEGI 12 ratings.
+zachary kasirye And to think I played Brawl with my sister when she was 8. Geez.
+zachary kasirye Perhaps it's because in story mode there's blood? (five spots on master hand when he died)
+zachary kasirye E 10+ did not exist at the time melee was released.
The censored version, better than uncensored? That's something you don't see everyday.
Better for the gentlemen, and the kids
The manga is rated all ages
Funny thing about the Electric Tale of Pikachu: It's artist, Toshihiro Ono, is well known for being a hentai artist, under the pen name Kamirenjaku Sanpei. That just explains way too much about the Japanese release of EToP.
I just love these jelly donuts 🍩🍙
i HATE people who dislike jelly
me too
i'll use frying pan as a drying pan
You forgot to mention the main reason for Electric Tale of Pikachu's raunchiness. The guy who illustrated it also does hentai (porn) manga. In fact, he was pretty much exclusively a hentai artist until he did this.
This explains A LOT.
I guess it's roughtly the equivalent of hiring a porn star as the lead on a kids show.
Not even remotely equivalent... unless she was dressed for what she considers "a normal day" on set. Takes self awareness and many such stars can find good work in more modest places. The artist just didn't care what he was making or who it was for.
I wouldn't mind having a teacher that looked like that....whew....

Sexualized minors, nudity, and sexualization in general seems to be a far less touchy subject, and sometimes maybe even humorous in Japan. I don't really understand, but it would be very interesting to have someone Japanese try to explain this.
I also notice that although a sexualized 12 year old girl is obviously pedophilia, Misty in this manga doesn't look 12 at all. She looks like a normally developed girl in her late adolescence, or even adulthood, which puts physical attraction in a more grey-area. Its almost like an 18 year old girl TOLD YOU she was 12. What would you feel then?
The only part that I actually view is pedophilia is Brock creeping on Misty.
It doesn't matter what she looks like, she's still only 12 years old. Any guy 17 and below is fine for being sexually attracted to her. Once you hit above 18 it gets weird. Mostly because when you hit adult age it starts hitting the "that could be my dad" age zone.
Emi Loli
brock is 15.
i think it was somewhere around 14 or 13 when there is legal to be "perverse"
and rest of the world sees it as pedophilia and other blaa blaa blaa what ever bullshit.
MrAnimepredator
interesting note: in the original dragon ball manga goku said he was 14. they changed it in the second volume to say he was 11. (saying he didn't know how to count that high)this was because there was frontal nudity in volume 2 and in japan frontal nudity of a 14 year old=porn frontal nudity under 12 is just kids playing around.
Mighty Tighty Whitey And I'm Smuggling Plums yea and goku takes her panties of and freaks out, and other stuff. the original dragon ball was more for mature taste than dragon ball z. but yes.
man when i read pokemon adventures and saw blue's charmeleon slash open a arbok i was like 😬
Thank God they censored them all. Actually, the 'art' aren't only disgusting, but also disturbing and highly unimportant for those who still have healthy mind -_-
I agree, while it's Japan, and the stories were meant to a bit darker, it's still a bit off-putting to see a series geared at children to have such disturbing art. Kinda like how weird it was to see UKs take on Sonic with STC.
psssh. I love Japanese animes that arent censored as much as theyd be in USA..they are much more realistic
Jaydn W Thing is, we're kinda talking about the Pokemon manga. I find it cooler when I get to see the uncensored versions, too. But just like JWittz and OP, I find the censored version much superior, because, like, seriously. It's for kids guys.
Jaydn W Realistic?
Jaydn W I don't think there being half-nude females everywhere and a 12-year-old wishing for a "better" body would be too realistic, in my opinion.
Shame the Pokemon special manga gave up on the violence after the first set of games :/
It was so fucking good back then v.v
+HackedGlitch265 But then, it still has dark themes.
From child abuse and a good chunk of people dying in RBE, to tales of disillusionment and close friends being controlled in X&Y.
...Also mind fucking in BW.
back then pokemon was not as popular as it is now so the creator said that back then he had alot more creative freedom. he decided to ground himself more the more popular pokemon got.
HackedGlitch265 what do you mean it's not violent anymore? Cyrus literally cried blood the diamond pearl and platinum arc!
what about child Ruby vs Salamence?
*cough*CyrusvsCynthia*cough*
Hey can you move the camera down because I can't see the gas station at 7:11 ?
Dont worry its revealed in pokemon yellow chapter that that arbok can regrow its body
So did two Arboks come out of that?
No the bottom half becomes a limp limb.
Misty in the Electric Tale of Pikachu isn't even at or above the legal age of consent in Japan (13)! It's pedophilia, even by Japan's standards.
How is it pedophilia? They didn't show any actual nudity did they. And are you forgetting that the other characters who saw her were at her age also?
***** It's still sexualization of an underage character. Also, how does the other characters in the manga being her age justify what's essentially softcore child porn?
Jeddostotle7 You said that it was 'pedophilia' and I was just stating that they didn't show any nudity at all. I also said that it couldn't be pedophilia from a character point of view because the characters were the same age, eliminating that possibility.
I remember reading the Crys’ mother mean look part and thought “wait! This doesn’t look right, am I reading a censored manga???” As I looked into it my thoughts were right. Yup, that was a slap!😆
Dragonball: manga, anime then games. Pokémon: games, anime then manga.
Pretty funny I thought.
+martyn_1 Look at James, then look at Trunks. I see similarity.
To true.
+RobotSnake u know what?if trunks wasn't confirmed as bulmas and vegetas son,trunks could of been jessie and James son
Steven Darrah No he couldn't.
Sparking 102 yes he could
Hi All, I started to work on my own Webtoon Managa at www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/ghosting-/list?title_no=442818. Would love to get your feedback!
When JWittz was talking about Misty wishing her breasts would "evolved" despite her being only 12 years it reminded me of the conversations I had with my nieces and cousins. The most memorable one being "I don't want them too big, yours are perfect" to which I responded "I'm 30, you're 13 so you have a lot of growing up to do in all areas". Great video as always JWittz and this kind of censorship is really dumb and proves that Japanese society is much more advance than our own naive American society IMO.
***** Said like a true neo-conservative teabagger, wrap yourself in the American flag and go sit in the corner because the adults are talking now.
@@ShinobuSakurazaka you are 38 LOL

Its even more hilarious that this particular scene is in the anime, and only the guys expressions (and the existance of the Eevee kid in said episode) and a "Mishap" were the only changes.
Electric Tales of Pikachu is a great ecchi if it becomes an anime...
+Joeie Rivera It'll be like a Pokemon version of Kill la Kill.
ShulkFeelingIt A Trigger-animated Pokemon series? Oh hell yes! Pikachu's Volt Tackle can destroy a whole city and Ash is a badass protagonist... That would be fun.
Joeie Rivera Pikachu's electro ball obliterated an entire aztec base/ruins/temple in a single strike.
Yeah
I actually remember buying the Pokemon comics when I was a kid, had the issue of Pokemon Adventures with the Pokemon race actually. I remember being so confused because it wasn't the same as the show or anime. But I held onto those for years till I gave them to a friend who collected manga.
I don't watch pokemon or read manga but watching videos about censorship is hilarious
Breast are such terrible things. No idea why congress hasn't banned them yet.
AfricanH3ro Dude breasts are awesome though.
Unless they're on an obese person.
AfricanH3ro Okay then how are you suppose to grow up to how you are now without breast milk?!
+AgencyAnime Secret artificial how do you think orphans survive
AllPowerful Luxray
Oh right xD
AgencyAnime Secret Weak argument. But beside that, the joke flew over your head anyway, so who cares if you understand it. You wouldnt get it anyway.
For those saying Japan is creepy: this is called "cultural differences" I mean, let's be real, every culture that looks at another will always find at least one thing they dislike about it, but I still think it is rude to judge it so rudely because of that. You do not know their standards, how they grew up or anything, so do not say they are corrupt people.
They are also in the complete opposite of us in one factor. For a notable example said in this video, take a look at how we kept all of the violent stuff from that manga in our version. In recent years, Japan treats violence how we treat sexuality, and I am talking heavy censorship here. And when I say heavy, I am not exaggerating. I am talking worse than how we censor sexuality.
Cultures are always different, so to say one is just weird, I find it disturbing. You can say what the thing is in general is weird, but don't call _them_ weird. They do not deserve that because they grew up with different morals, standards and more that they find acceptable. Cultures are different, hence the term; so get over it.
But the problem is that American and Japanese culture is all the different when discussing the sexualization of young girls.
+neosoontoretro I think you're missing the point.
There's cultural differences, and then there's paedophilia. You can't justify sexualising a 12 year old like that.
@@teabaggin3625 this manga is for boys 10-15, so I don't see the problem in sexualizing characters that the readers would see that way well they are that age.
I stumbled upon the adventure series at my library
Its really good and gets suprisingly dark and deep at the RS arc
Anyone else notice the Eevee kids Nose Bleeding XD
8-Bit Audon isn't that kid green? :D
Wait misty is 12 years old and she is allowed to travel the world with people she has never seen before where are her parents or sisters to take care of her and tell her that's a bad idea
I can tell you with just one name : Japan
Dont forget ash, left school and his home at 10 years old to travel the world with a pokemon that shocked him many times in a lab that a professor kept away.
and what about Brock?
cory repin
brocks mom died in the japanese, but is not mentioned in the english.
Colton Kelsey
No actually, it's shockingly the opposite. Brock's mother simply left in Japanese. The 4Kids version strangely enough edited it UP to death since they didn't want Brock to have two dedbeat parents.
Unfortunately, this backfired on them horrible when she was brought back for a special episode...
2:14 Um... Am I the only one who didn't know what I was looking at until the next few seconds later?
No.... I was very confused
Reppes I have the entire box set of the manga and it still took me a good few seconds to recognize what that picture even was.
What is it?
in Pokémon adventures some female characters get sexualized too, and every time this happens there is also a joke about it hiding beyond the corner (usually whenever you see Gold)

i thougt it made you cry bananas of laughter
First came the tears, then the bananas.
Orangejuicehero Nah, I think you have it reversed.
Pokemon Adventure is the practically the manga version of a Pokemon Nuzloke. :P
How?
-_- All right I realize how manga just HAS to include their colossal boobs that are literally 4x the size of the character's head, but seriously? THIS is just ridiculous. Now I would understand it if the anime was intended for teenagers or adults with no fanservice already, but the fanservice got added in later but POKEMON IS A CHILDREN'S ANIME FOR GOD SAKES!!!! I DID NOT NEED TO SEE MISTY LOOKING LIKE A 24 YEAR OLD SUPER MODEL WHEN SHE WAS MY 12 YEAR OLD ROLE MODEL WHEN I WAS LIKE.... 7 -_- thanks for spoiling my childhood, fanservice...
We definitely needed misty with colossal tits.
what you dont understand is that japan and america has different standards of what is publicly acceptable or not.. hence the censorship.. the thought of huge knockers to japan in anime is a common occurence in anime.. kinda like how bulma ran in her underwear in DBZ. but yes.. we need some more knockers
Pokemon is a children's anime. O.K
I don't think you can say the same for the mangas.
The pokemon in the manga actually die.
You can see them spliting in half.
Tis' amazing.
I honestly don't see a problem with it because that's the way it was made. I'm a huge advocate for no censorship. I hate everything about it, and it's gets so bad in the West that it becomes downright ignorant. Brock calls rice balls "Donuts" in the English version of the anime. Lord forbid children learn about foods from different cultures! Also fun fact: Japanese breasts are actually getting bigger in recent years the numbers say, actually curvier in general. Anyways, you realize that even the anime is altered from the original right?
if you don't want your children to watch it...its just gonna make them want to more....not to meantion there gonna find alot worse in there life times then comedical anime.
So for those who didn't know, the Eevee kid is Mikey from the episode, " The battling Eevee brothers". Yes... The little boy who didn't want to evolve his Eevee.
so?
Some people don't know that and now they know
mraaronhd and knowing is half the battle!
GEEEE IIIIIIII JOOOEEEEE
6:52 *Almost bursts out laughter* I'll believe that when hell freezes over twice!
Jinx skin color has nothing to do with typical black American people. It's just the coloring base on the Japanese mythology where Jinx abbreviated from.
Please get it right.
But in America Jynx resembles the "Black face" character which is considered semi racist thus the change from black to purple
avshutsach lol, they did the same to Mr. Popo in DBZ Kai.
CrowsSymphonyRequiem We don't talk about Blue Popo around these parts, boy...

Seriously jwittz your videos are so interesting and helpful. I never knew any of these thing. So glad I subbed!
Calling that pedophilia is a bit of a stretch. How sex and sexuality is viewed in Japan is different than it is in America, and having characters who are essentially the same age as Kasumi/Misty be attracted to her really isn't bad at all.
There are accounts of older business men going after school girls in Japan and vice veersa. Cultural difference or no, that is twisted no matter how I look at it. No better than extreme sugar daddies here.
tazia hall It's not really all that twisted. Nudity is looked at VERY differently in Japan than it is in America. And for your example of business men going after young girls, what does that have to do with anything? Do you really think that doesn't happen in America? What is your point?
Eh, the way I see it, the comic itself isn't pedophilia, but Brock is.
That's what I think he meant.
The creator of Pokemon claimed Pokemon Special is what he invisioned. It is the closest to the game than any other depiction of Pokemon (except for the games themselves of course lol).
I like the idea of Jessie and James being together. They should let become canon.
At the beginning you say that we got the manga after the anime, but pokemon adventures actually came before! (kusaka and Mato actually got behind the scenes stuff before the games were finished, which is why early on they occasionaly use beta designs !)
Yeah but that arbok coincidentally can regenerate anything below it's head
I love manga but they totally disrespect women
Sorry, guys, but J has a point with the women. Why do they look they have fake boobs. Misty is a tomboy. It wouldn't make sense for her to reveal so much to her friends. I'm not saying that they should be flat but manga artists should go easy on the boob dept.
Yup, they aren't even anatomically correct and look unnatural. Big boobs are fine, but they don't need to be falling out of their shirts.
Does anyone know where i can find the uncensored version? All i can find are the censored English version and i don't want to read it.

after ruby, saphire remake, they should make a game based off the manga
Or they could cancel the terrible anime we have now and give us an anime adaptation of Adventures. How could they make a game out of a manga based on the games?
Sean Rimm that's f*pika*ing genius actually.
They're sexualized because Toshihiro was a hentai artist.
WHy didnt you mention that?
I cannot find the original VIZ Print books shown at 2:37 . If anyone can find one for sale, i would be very grateful.

Hey you can read it online at this website :

Question: is misty 12 in the japanese version as well ? In a lot of adaptation from Japan to USA and Europe, they make the characters younger to aim for a younger audience as well.
She's 12 in the Japanese manga, and 10 in the Japanese anime.
+feykroTV - A lot of it has to deal with the fact that in some areas of japan the age of consent is 14.
kathryn doyle It doesn't mean that all girls lose their virginity at 14. It means that the 14 year olds can give consent. This is just the way that they get away with having younger girls over sexualized in their media.
no one knows Misty's age in the anime, but people assume she's older than ash because she already had her Pokemon and she's a lot taller than him. she's probably 11/12
@@andreaflorea7743 it’s 10. She’s 10 in the anime
:I As creepy as it sounds, Japans age of consent is 13 years old.
You don't say?
Well considering they have a negative natural increase rate do to the lack of children being born from a variety of reasons that probably is one of the ways that Japan's government is trying to not become the land of 60+ year old Japanese people and the only people under age 60 are the foreigners .
Andrew .Y I don't really think that lowering the age of consent would change anything...There are so many reasons for having the negative natural increase.
Nikola Randjelovic HIGH cost of living, little money to support for children, and crap-paying jobs. They're in a near-severe crisis.
MarioZelda128 I also wanted to mention the fact that they separated the genders further with many things. Like "virtual girlfriends", and stuff similar to that. I can't think of anything better right now, but I watched a movie about that a few days ago. It's called "no sex please, we're japanese"
7:12-7:18,

I beg to differ!
One of my friends was in a DD by the time she was 12
Hey I have something thats inappropriate witch I think is in the manga here's what it said
: thats the last time I have a bath with my pokemon
xD what?
That is on a newspaper in one of the R/B/Y volumes. The name of the article is "Shocking Case of Poke-Love" and under that it reads "That's the Last Bath I'll Take With my Tentacool!" XD
Ya japan stop smoking weed
One of the most recent censorships was made in one of the Emerald chapters where he ( Emerald ) takes a piss from a boat and accidentally pees on his friends. Although you couldn't see it ( his wang ) they still covered him up with a soda can pretending he poured it out. Now you know the real reason Ruby cried.
+TalesOfGamerz My questions are : Why did he waste good soda? Did he accidentally pour it? And who takes a whizz off a boat if there's a lower deck? (Or was he on the lower deck)

No, he was just pissing. Plains and simple.
