❣️CALLING ALL OG POKEMON ANIME FANS❣️

Do you know what AAML stands for? What is your stance on rocketshippers? Have you ever maintained your own shrine on angelfire.com? Who was the first bishonen you ever adopted?

If these questions struck a chord, please keep reading

To commemorate the Pokémon anime ending, I have begin writing a video essay about the history of Pokémon fandom, specifically anime shipping! It will be a multipart series starting with the original series featuring Ash, Brock, Tracey, and Misty! I'm talking AAML/twerpshippy/pokeshipping, rocketshipping, gymshipping, orangeshipping, palletshipping, etc!

Unfortunately, my research can only take me so far, because a lot of the internet from back then isn't well preserved and it can be hard to read as I am unfamiliar with some of the terminology used at the time.

I am making this post in the hopes that people who were active online fandom members from back in 1996-2003 era will see this and respond! I hope to ask a few questions about commonly used terminology, as well as the atmosphere between different sections of the fandom at that time.

If anyone is willing to help me, please respond to this post, DM me, or email me at "kooliette (dot) vt (at) gmail (dot) com"

If you can't directly help me for any reason, please reblog and spread awareness so that I can get solid information and best represent the community!

TL;DR If you were shipping Pokémon characters in the 90s, hmu

YGO character analysis charts!

Found this at the end of volume 6 of the bunkoban manga, and thought I might share it with tumblr since I’ve never seen it on the internet anywhere?? c: (also everyone loves a good ol’ personality chart amirite)

Takahashi drew up this chart which describes each character’s traits along three different axes:

narcissistic vs altruistic

nonsensical* vs self-restrained/showing self-control

greedy, attached/obsessed vs unselfish/unavaricious, indifferent

Each axis is a continuum moving from one trait to its opposite. The centre of each axis is 0**, and you can score a maximum of 5 points (levels) in either direction.

*The actual word used here is 電波 (denpa) which literally means ‘electromagnetic wave’, but it’s apparently also a slang term for a character archetype describing someone who’s a bit ridiculous/absurd/prone to wild fantasies, etc. The term actually originates from the idea of someone who believes they can communicate via electromagnetic waves. #aliens?? 

**Also, the centre of the graph (i.e. a score of 0 on each axis) is labelled “ordinary/average person”.

Here’s what each of the characters scored:

MUTOU YUUGI 4/5 altruistic 5/5 self-restrained 2/5 unselfish

YAMI YUUGI 2/5 altruistic 2/5 self-restrained 1/5 unselfish

KAIBA SETO 4/5 narcissistic 3/5 nonsensical 4/5 greedy

JOUNOUCHI KATSUYA 4/5 altruistic 1/5 self-restrained 2/5 greedy

MAZAKI ANZU 3/5 altruistic 3/5 self-restrained 3/5 unselfish

HONDA HIROTO 1/5 altruistic 3/5 self-restrained 1/5 unselfish

BAKURA RYOU 4/5 narcissistic 5/5 nonsensical 4/5 unselfish

YAMI BAKURA 3/5 narcissistic 4/5 nonsensical 5/5 greedy

PEGASUS J. CRAWFORD 4/5 narcissistic 4/5 nonsensical 4/5 greedy

KUJAKU MAI 2/5 altruistic 3/5 self-restrained 3/5 greedy

DINOSAUR RYUUZAKI 3/5 narcissistic 1/5 nonsensical 2/5 greedy

INSECTOR HAGA 4/5 narcissistic 3/5 nonsensical 4/5 greedy

BANDIT KEITH 2/5 narcissistic 1/5 nonsensical 4/5 greedy

MARIK ISHTAR 2/5 narcissistic 2/5 nonsensical 4/5 greedy

YAMI MARIK 4/5 narcissistic 4/5 nonsensical 4/5 greedy

ISHIZU ISHTAR 5/5 altruistic 5/5 self-restrained 4/5 unselfish

So, today (Oct. 18) is apparently the birthday of Ted Lewis (Ed Paul). He somehow ended up being my favourite. Here are 10 of his roles to get an idea of how crazy this guys range is.
