Golden Sun 3, Pokémon gen 6, Hannibal season 2 and apparently likely to get renewed for a third, DRRR!! season 2 announced, and now the Hoenn remakes..
Squeenix, just get onboard and give us the freaking TWEWY sequel now
YOU FORGOT THE FRIGGIN' (TEMPORARY) POKEMON CENTER IN PARIS. I SWEAR, IF SHAFT ISN'T MAKING A UMINEKO CHIRU ANIME NOW........ (If everything can happen, I DON'T KNOW: another Spice&Wolf season?! A Blood Alone anime? A Shigeru cameo in XY?!)
False in hannibal rising he ate people so that made him a cannibal. But he did write the books out of order. Soooo you could still be right.
You’re thinking of the novelizations by Thomas Harris, which aren’t canonical. After the TV show starring Mads Mikkelsen was adapted into the movie “Silence of the Lambs,” Hopkins decided to make the character a cannibal serial killer, where in the show he was merely Clarice Starling’s psychiatrist. It wasn’t until years later that Harris wrote his first novelization, called “Manhunter.” Harris would go on to create his own show, “Dexter”, about a forensic anthropologist in Washington DC who could tell how murders occurred by observing the victim’s bones.
things that will instantly improve any movie:
how about bickering lesbian scientists that build robots to fight dragons
Lesbian robot dragons created by bickering scientists
Who are also lesbians
OKAY DO YOU SEE THIS SCENE RIGHT HERE BECAUSE THIS SCENE IS SO IMPORTANT TO ME LIKE
THIS GIRL DID NOT EVEN WANT TO BECOME A POKEMON TRAINER SHE WANTED NOTHING TO DO WITH POKEMON SHE JUST WANTED TO SIGHT SEE BUT THEN SHE REALIZED HOW GREAT POKEMON WERE AND FOUND CONTESTS AND THIS BRAT RIGHT HERE PUSHED HER TO GROW
AND NOW LOOK AT HER SHE’S GROWN SO MUCH THE SHAKING GIRL WHO FELL AT HER FIRST CONTEST IS GONE AND SHE ACTUALLY COULD BEAT HIM AND HE WOULD HAVE SCOFFED BEFORE AT CALLING HER A WORTHY OPPONENT BUT NOW HE CONSIDERS HIMSELF HONORED THAT SHE THINKS OF HIM AS HER RIVAL
SHE’S HERE SAYING THAT SHE WANTS TO DO WHAT HE DOES AND FIND HER OWN STYLE LIKE HE IS CONTINUING TO INFLUENCE HER AND HE KNOWS IT AND SHE WILL EVEN GO TO JOHTO BECAUSE THAT IS HOW ESSENTIAL HIS RIVALRY IS TO HER AS A COORDINATOR AND HOW ESSENTIAL HE IS TO HER AS A PERSON AS SHE CONTINUES TO GROW
AND SHE IS SAYING SHE WOULD BE WILLING TO GIVE UP TRAVELING THE WORLD FOR THAT, THE ONE AND ONLY REASON SHE HAD FOR JUSTIFYING THAT GOING ON A JOURNEY IN THE FIRST PLACE WAS WORTH IT DESPITE HATING POKEMON
AND HE JUST FUCKING STARES AT HER WITH THAT LOOK ON HIS FACE AND IT JUST HITS HIM ALL AT ONCE HE’S FUCKING HEAD OVER HEELS FOR THIS STUPID GIRL HE HAS LITERALLY WATCHED HER GROW AS A COORDINATOR FROM HER FIRST CONTEST AND HE COULD NOT BE MORE HAPPY THAT SHE IS HIS RIVAL AND THAT HE HAS THIS GIRL IN HIS LIFE BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT? SHE’S HELPED HIM GROW AS A COORDINATOR AND PERSON AS WELL
HE WANTS THIS GIRL TO COME TO JOHTO WITH HIM BECAUSE HE NEEDS HER TOO
Who began those rumors about XY's staff being made of new people everywhere and in every instance? X__X I mean, it was the same thing at the beginning of Best Wishes!, just replace the "it sucks, it's lackluster compared to DP, why did they fire the old staff!" comments by "there will be romance yay/arg, totally new staff writing romance!".
So, uh, if I'm not mistaken:
- There indeed is a new director, Tetsuo Yajima, since the beginning of XY. However (feel free to correct me), a director's job is not to create the series from scratch, it's putting it into shape from the work of a writer. So, I would say that despite the title, it's not so much deciding a series' direction than ensuring the direction will be conveyed to the viewers?
(Same difference than playwriter and stage director working in a collaboration.)
- Atsuhiro Tomioka still is, as far as I know, in charge of the series as head-writer - and has been since the beginning of Diamond&Pearl.
During his era, so far, we've had one-sided feelings, Satoshi being especially oblivious to love, big casts of recurring characters/(friendly) rivals, so not really romance-oriented (then again, he could be trying new things, though Satoshi's obliviousness in XY007 tends to make me believe that not that much). Seems to have a casual liking for making main girls cry, too!
- Out of 8 episodes so far, 6 had animation directors and storyboarders who have been working at least since early BW!, the majority being veterans (the new ones being: Shinji Matsuda and Hirotaka Tomiyasu for XY004 / Mai Tsutsumi (who only worked on BW119 before) and Yoshifumi Sueda (who also worked for XY001 and XY002) for XY008).
Except for Akemi Omode (XY007) who joined late into BW!, all of the other screenplay writers are veterans.
Takahiro Ikezoe as assistant director (XY005) is a new name; so is Sou Toyama (XY003), but he worked for Shaymin's movie back in the days.
So, not that many new names. The animation is indeed smoother, probably because they have more funding (and staff), or are more at ease with "standardized" designs (everyone is proportionally taller and thinner, now)...? But not really because there are many new people in charge. In fact, it's even a little surprising that Izumi Shimura's episodes (XY001, XY002, XY005) were suddenly that smooth - they're usually not that great ^^' (Though, the first three episodes had, in fact, two animation directors instead of one!)
- Tipbit: Atsuhiro Tomioka and Masaaki Iwane generally work together (respectively as writer and animation director) for "important" episodes: big matches, plot involving Teams, important episodes regarding goodies promotion(/or their personal biases) like the Lizardon one, etc. Random but, generally, Iwane's episodes tend to have more Satoshi+Pikachu moments than usual.
Some scenes/part of XY's stock animation were clearly Iwane-style. As chatsy88 pointed out, Akihiro Tamagawa hasn't been listed so far for XY, but he is still, at least, part of the staff given some faces in XY009's previews. He tends to work on important episodes, too, or on really really cracky ones. Both kind are awesomely animated.
Trust me and hope that Noboru Furuse won't come back as an animation director during XY.

Cubone Poke’dex entry:
Cubone pines for the mother it will never see again. Seeing a likeness of its mother in the full moon, it cries. The stains on the skull the Pokémon wears are made by the tears it sheds.
Phantump Poke’dex entry:
According to old tales, these Pokémon are stumps possessed by the spirits of children who died while lost in the forest.
