Pocket Monster: Sun & Moon Main Staff Revealed

[ehh123]

Anyone want to watch the English dub of the first two episodes of SM and check the credits to confirm this?

 

[MizuTaipu]

So a recent episode was directed by an animator who also worked on Cowboy Bebop and now a screenwriter who worked on Ghost in the Shell: SAC is joining the staff too, if the Junichi Fujisaku credit is true. That's pretty neat.

Is Junki Takegami still in this list?

Nope. Oohashi is MIA, too.

Nope. Oohashi is MIA, too.

!!!!!

Hasn't Oohashi written an episode yet?!

 

[marshiyanmisuta]

From what I gather, writers and plot threads they handle:

Matsui: Main plot, Kapu Kokeko, Pikachu, Rotom, Z-crystals, Okido
Tomioka: Suiren, Ashimari, Nyabby, Iwanko, Kaki?
Omode: Mamane, Togedemaru, Lilie, Shiron, Team Rocket, Kiteguruma, Mimikyu
Sekine: Mao?

Flynn means Aito Oohashi, an animaton director. He will be doing SM019.

By the way, Junichi Fujisaku has a connection with OLM. He did an educational anime with the studio in collaboration with Production I.G. called "Pikaia!".

And another thing. The new series director is Daiki Tomiyasu. He worked as an episode director for X and Y and guess what? He directed and storyboarded XY060. Yep, the one where Serena cut her hair and was a turning point in her character development. Of course, it helps that it was written by Atsuhiro Tomioka.

Speaking of Tomioka, you got to hand it to him. He may not be in charge anymore but that hasn't stopped him writing some emotional episodes for Sun and Moon as seen with Litten's relationship to the old Stoutland and Popplio's backstory.

Where can I see these credits for myself?

Tomioka #1. The Rockruff capture ep is easily my favorite from SM so far. I hope whenever they get to the villain plot they let Tomioka write the majority of it.

The end credits of the dubbed Sun and Moon anime.

I was talking about Yukiyoshi Oohashi, the writer, who hasn't written an episode since XY124.

My apologies.

OOHASHI HAS VANISHED WHAT IS THIS

 

[ehh123]

From what I understand, the Pokemon anime has a pretty good production schedule compared to other anime. It is more like American cartoons where the episodes are finished months ahead of time as opposed to as late as the day it airs. If this is true, when did OLM start to do this?

 

[SinnohEevee]

Who directed Best Wishes?

 

[ehh123]

Who directed Best Wishes?

Norihiko Sudo, same as Diamond and Pearl.

OOHASHI HAS VANISHED WHAT IS THIS

Ohashi, Fujita, Yonemura, Takegami, Sonoda...62.5 percent of the writing staff is disappeared after XY ended. Cutting expenses?

 

[ii kanji]

OH MY GOD

(But Yonemura's writing the film right?)

Yonemura is still there. He's credited in the dub ending.

 

[SinnohEevee]

Are they changing many writers because of the new style?

 

[marshiyanmisuta]

Yonemura is still there. He's credited in the dub ending.

OH MY GOD

(But Yonemura's writing the film right?)

I guess he's busy with the movie?
