What about DP142? And he started being all awesome even before that...
Ok, I forgot about that. My mind was just thinking about how Yonemura seems to be a Rocket fan all of a sudden. I really wasn't expecting the Shami episode to be about them so much.
What I wouldn't give to be at one of those writers meetings...
But it isn't going to be Musashi's 5th ribbon, right? o.o
Probably not, but we can't be 100% sure.
Kojiro didn't mind her using Manene before, moreover, he was all "I'm counting on you, Manene" so I think it's gonna be the same...
I was just questioning his reaction since Tomioka isn't writing. It's interesting to see how each writer portrays them in these types of situations.
The next thing that make me surprised about today's episodes were also how Kantoish they felt when it comes to Team Rocket. They were evil and menacing and TOTALLY concentrated about catching pokemon of the day. It's quite unusual since we know how many other activities distract them from their main job these days. It seems to me like the writers are aware now that TRio is going to care more on something else soon, so they're writing such episodes to make up in advance for lack of Team Rocket activity in future episodes... or something xD;
I was thinking something similar. It was kinda strange (in a good way) to see them acting all evil. It may just be for that very reason.
But how would you explain the infamous scene from Chirin episode, then? So he hates Musashi, too?
He assumed Musashi would just be more controlling if they got married. But AG Musashi/Kojiro is not DP Musashi/Kojiro, and thankfully AG Oohashi is not DP Oohashi. I really don't think we need to look into it too much.
But tbh, I haven't seen any trace of gamophobia in DP153. Sure, he detested Rumika, but that's just it.
Which is why I'm hoping its been retconed. :-D
Maybe it's not the marriage he's afraid of, but rather, the lack of freedom. He's simply afraid of being controlled. It makes sense, since we all know how his childhood looked like.
I think that's it exactly.
Now that I think of it, it's funny how he started to hate Rumika he was in love with once she started to boss him around since Musashi didn't act any better at times (thankfully, she isn't like that anymore). Her orders sometimes really made him unhappy and yet, hewas still friends with her. I wonder why... Just don't tell me he was more assertive as a kid xD;
Part of it might be because Musashi has shown she cares about him. Rumika interrupted what I'm sure was a very cute proposal by Kojiro just to say "Yeah yeah we're getting married. Now I want you to get rid of your Pokemon and do this this and this." If Rumika had shown that she cared for Kojiro's feelings even a little, I'm not sure we'd be discussing this today.
