Fun fact: Jynx’s signature sleep inducing move Lovely Kiss is called Devil’s Kiss in Japan!

What’s worse about Koga’s Ninja Trick is that the “Swastika” is actually a Buddhist symbol called a Manji

I think that all Misty’s tears was the most censored Pokemon card but it was a Staryu on it not Starmie.

You forgot that Kadabra's cards were entirely banned for 20 years when Uri Geller sued Pokemon in 2000

this is making me feel very nostalgic and now i have a deep desire to have my childhood pokemon cards back.

“There must be a million Miltank here!”

There’s like 40 at most Brock, your guesses are way off…

Oh, they're gonna have a field day if they do most censored Yu-Gi-Oh! cards

I have the censored Magmortar card. That's an interesting bit of trivia I had no idea about. And I definitely would have preferred to have it pointing at me.

I remember getting a TCG guidebook that featured the original art for many of these cards. Number 1 had me imagining things a 6 year old shouldn't.

Called before I even saw it! That aside, the thing I found about Misty's tears wasn't so much that she was "naked" but instead presented as a silhouette for some reason. That said, perception tends to be everything; and as such, I don't blame them for changing the card art like they did.

I remember getting the japanese misty’s theme deck from a shop at the mall and being suprised by misty’s tears and thought it was one of the coolest cards in the deck.

[ellieadkinson]

Oh wow! I actually learned a lot from this list! I didn’t expect you to START OFF with the manji card! Figured that would be number one. Very nice work. 💖

Very sad to see that western people still confuse Swastika & Nazi Symbol....Swastika is a very very ancient symbol of good in Hindu, Buddhist & Jain is considered a holy symbol in most of Indian Subcontinent & Asean countries

[Rubenbinx]

Awesome video! Please do Yu-Gi-Oh next!

[ederayona]

I remember watching this episode a few years back

[TheRealBitterbub]

Oh thank god, I thought for a sec they were referring to Milk Tank's "other infamous anime moment". Till I derped, and remembered they were talking about the cards..

[leonardolim]

I love Ashley hosting anime videos. Keep it up bra

A change to the Magmortor card that I would make would be keeping it in the original pose while shooting off the move Fire Blast.
