I had this thread in the old forum, but decided to put it up again.
Call me a sentimental fool, but when the main characters meet after so long or even say goodbye after traveling together for an entire region, the hellos and goodbyes disappoint me sometimes. I mean, how about when Ash returns from Hoenn to find Misty waiting for him? Pikachu got a hug from her, but I thought Ash could have done more than simply stare at her in amazement. Or how about when May returned mid-Sinnoh. I thought she could at least have run up and hugged Ash. Ok, the high-five between Ash and Dawn, I won't argue about, but still, it's something that bugs me. Why is the anime (and anime in general) so touchy about emotional reunions or partings?
