“With the Easiest of Grace!” Review Thread

[Mijumaru]

I have a feeling that the Heatran episode will premiere either after the episode, Coming Full Festival Circle, or the first Saturday of November.

Why so late? I know it will air October 16, after the finale. They won't stop the Grand Festival.

Can anyone please answer that?

Yes, they kept that.

Yes, they kept it in.

This episode was pretty good. Togekiss is really cute. I don't care if it was kind of a useless capture. She's really cute!

Dawn was tolerable in this episode, although I kind of hated it when she yells at Togekiss "you're so slow!" I thought that was kind of a jerk move. But at least in the end she figured out how to work Togekiss' unique moves.

Oh well. I liked Togekiss going off on Gible. Again, pretty good episode.

[Piplup]

Yes they did, the conversation went like this-

Brock: Togekiss is carefree but it is tough aswell.
Dawn: Like a big sister don't you think?
Brock: Yeah

Thanks!! Good to know they kept it!

[Musashi]

Pretty good episode. I like how Dawn needed to learn to deal with Togekiss' unusual battle style and how Togekiss really looks out for Piplup. Nice to see someone defend the penguin for once.

The only downside were the Rockets. They were really annoying and took up too much screen time. But that's not anything new.

Oh, one funny bit involving them though. I love how Dawn and Ash had no clue what Jessie was saying at one point. I wonder if the dub was intentionally making fun of itself?

Yeah, the writers need to make something more creative. Something like Where No Togepi Has Gone Before! would have been nice, though this episode barely had anything to do with Team Rocket.

You better get ready for next week, Team Rocket's gonna go crazy.

Meh is all I can say. The dub is getting more tedious to watch each week (to me at least).

Well, it wasn't as tedious for me. They kept a lot of music, 13, to be exact.

[Magmortar123]

Music I don't really care about. It's just something (I can't put my finger on it) that makes me dislike the dub. I much better prefer the original

[Mijumaru]

The only flaw I found about this episode was Team Rocket. They had too much screentime.

[Ampharos King]

I really do not mind if not all of the music is kept, but keeping most of it is what the dub should really do more often. It makes certain scenes, especially battles, all the more exciting.

As for the episode itself, the main issue was giving the Rockets more screentime than was needed. I understand that Jessie wants to steal Togekiss for herself, admiring her beauty and grace. In the end, Dawn learns to adapt to the pokemon's style of battling, insted of making that pokemon adapt to its trainer. This was something that she (and Ash) learned back when Dawn decided to trade her Buizel for Aipom.

Yes, Team Rocket should only have a lot of screentime in their episodes, not just random episodes.

I only said that because they did that in Battle Dimension and maybe your right it will probably air after DP177.

[Mijumaru]

I'm wondering, how come Togekiss all of a sudden is Piplup's best friend?

It's a prime example of making fast friends. Plus Togekiss really cares for Piplup, so it makes it seem like they were destined to become best friends.

I wouldn't go that far. They're main characters too and deserve a lot of screen time, but this wasn't one of those episodes. We should've spent more time getting to know Togekiss.
