Pokémon Black and White volume 4 review thread

*Eitarou* · 15th November 2011, 08:01 AM

So, I got this volume yesterday. Pretty good read.

Our chapter titles are...

Battle at the Dreamyard -
We have Black & White encountering Fennel and Amanita and exploring the Dreamyard.

Wheeling and Dealing - Black & White arrive at Nacrene City.

Battle at the Museum - Black faces Lenora in a Gym battle while White talks to the mayor of Nimbasa City for an idea about getting Nimbasa some tourists.

I noticed that Viz removed Lenora's apron just like in the anime.

Oh, see, I don't have it, but I want to know... Does N appear in this volume? I think he did in 2 and 3, but what about 4?

No he doesn't.

AWWW...... No.... Why??? I was hoping he would.

Oh, and thanks for replying back to me.

It was good :/ The Dream Yard was rushed in my opinion :/

Hmm.... There's no N(which is a major disappointment), but since I like Black & White, it's good!

By the way, random question, but does anyone know who posted my banner on google? I was looking up N pictures and saw it.... Anyone?

She's drawn without her apron in the Japanese version as well.

The TV series is the only medium that still uses her old design.

That's true. But there were two pages where she had it on only to take it off when she battled Black.

I thought this was one decent. After finishing it up though I decided to think long and hard. I'm thinking I should stop buying these mini-mangas. It is nice to be up to date but I feel it's just not worth it considering that I have to fork over $6. For $3 more I could enjoy a full length book.

One problem though: Knowing this manga as well as I do, the full length book won't come out until 2013 at the earliest. And that's only in Japan!

God who knows how long Viz would take to release the full length volume in English if they even actually plan on doing so.

Yes that is a problem, but it's one that I'm willing to go through with. I havn't read the D/P/Pl saga yet because there's not that many volumes available at the moment. Once there's a good number, I'll take those on. I'm one of those readers which love to finish it all in one go as soon as possible rather than wait for the next volume.
