What's happening forum? I hope you guys are enjoying this wonderful evening. I know I am right now since I have great news to tell you guys! X3 :D

I just recently checked on Serebii.net and it was revealed that during the Pokémon Game Show (a TV show about Pokémon news in Japan) that there will be a new Pokémon anime that will be premiering in Japan on October 2nd 2013! This anime will air coincide with the upcoming Pokémon XY. This anime will be known as Pokémon: The Origins. The anime will feature Red and Green, based directly from the original Pokémon games Red and Green version. It is currently unknown if this anime will be either a special or a series. The anime will feature Red as he starts his journey throughout Kanto and battles his rival Green and the first Gym Leader Brock. There's already a full trailer for the anime to air at Japan!

I'm so stoked and excited for the new anime and I really hope Nintendo and GameFreak will also reveal that Blue/Leaf appears and meets Red. They can meet and maybe we can see some fluff between them! Kinda reminds of another couple that I know. ;) *Looks at Atty and kisses her hand*

So what are your thoughts about the new anime? Are you ready to see the Pokémon world through a different perspective? What would you like to see happen in the anime? Please leave your comments and thoughts on what are your thoughts for the new anime and as always, thanks for reading!

I honestly can't wait for this! :D My favorite generation of Pokemon games and it's events are going to come to life. I'm so sick of the current ongoing anime. It's going on for far to long and I honestly got bored of it after the third generation. It'll be really refreshing to go back to Kanto and watch it where it all began. I just can't see this being a movie though. There's way too much to cover in just 2-3 hours. I'm pretty sure it'll be a short series that'll run for a month or two.

It'll probably just be an OVA, sorry to be a downer, but that doesn't mean it won't be an awesome one. I've waited for a serious animated take for sooo long.
Sorry if I don't sound ecstatic enough, I already finished squeeing when I heard.

Nintendo is most definitely spoiling us Pokemon fans. It's as if they've left their fan mail unread for years and just opened it. :pikachu:

Wow. I haven't been paying much attention to the anime series lately, but this will most certainly bring my focus back to it. I've been waiting -- or should I say hoping -- for an anime like this for quite some time. Everything about it looks fantastic. I can't express my excitement enough! This is gonna be great!

This special is to commemorate the release of the new games, Pokémon X & Y and is based upon the Pokémon Red & Green games.

It has been confirmed that this is a special episode and not a Series so that's a bit of a downer... or not, whatever your point of view is on this. I do like it though, it's nice to have something recent to remind us of the good old days.

Sounds fun! I'll definitely tune in whenever and watch it, I do like the sound if it going back. Shame it's not an entire series but, maybe if it's really successful they could change their minds! *optimism*

Yeah this is in the wrong section, even if it does coincide with X and Y's release, its still an anime and needs to be in "World of Pokemon" section, which is where I originally made a thread for this.

Even if it is just one episode in this special, I'm sure it is going to be given a lot of praise and be hyped despite this fact. I believe the special should last at least an hour rather than the usual 21-30 minute episodes that most animes usually do. There's just to much to just put in half an hour.

Too good to be true, I should've known! But it's still gonna be good, right?

That's ultra disappointing to hear. I'm still excited for it all, but I just don't see how they're going to cram all that content into that one episode. Hopefully they reconsider and do a small series for one season.
