Review for Return to Grace

Return to Grace

(#) facia 2007-04-09

I liked the first scene, even if the bit about Richie getting blamed in Ash's stead didn't seem to make much sense psychologically. But...still, it seems inconsistent. The world is practically ending and they're keeping one of the strongest remaining trainers and his pokemon out of the fight because he's a little unhinged? Then back to Ash and Misty, and, how did these people survive so long when they suck so much at dealing with Abominations? The banter didn't help, it was like they were in some other, much less dangerous story. (And is any of the main cast actually dead?)

I really like the concept and general world, but you keep jumping between it being incredibly dangerous for everyone else, and not so dangerous for the main characters, and then show the main characters nearly getting killed at stuff that should be happening all the time...
