A new news article has been posted!
The official Pokémon movie website has updated. Translations of the new entries follow:
The first ever "Free Vocal Reactions Screening" in Pokémon movie history was held at Toho Cinemas Shinjuku on Saturday July 22nd.
Tickets for the free vocal reactions screening sold out shortly after it got announced,
and the attendants included both cosplayers and people wearing Nyarth masks,
to such an extent Shoko Nakagawa said "Everybody here is really hard core!"
There were even people from Sendai there.
The theater was teeming with energy even before the screening had started.
When Shoko Nakagawa showed up, applause and cheering burst forth from the audience.
And when Nakagawa called out to the audience "Your desire to passionately discuss the movie will come true tonight!
Let's spend this hot night together laughing and crying, making this a summer we'll never forget as long as we live!
I would also kind of like for us to sing "MezaPoké" together!",
a loud cheer echoed through the theater.
As soon as the screening started, you could hear everyone shouting various things.
When the opening theme song "Mezase Pokémon Master -20th Anniversary" played, everyone sang along together while clapping to the beat.
Whenever a Pokémon would appear on the screen, people would shout its name,
and whenever Satoshi or Pikachu appeared, everyone would wave their glowsticks with all their might, while clapping and shouting.
In addition, a massive applause sounded from the audience when Joy, who's played by Nakagawa, appeared!
Every single scene would have people shouting something, and the audience was bursting with laugher with no end in sight.
When the screening was over, Nakagawa said "Pokémon is amazing! I was crying! My eyes used Hydro Pump!"
With excitement still lingering in her voice, she continued expressing her thoughts on the screening: "This experience of shouting, cheering, crying and sharing our genuine thoughts together in this room where everyone totally gets it has made me once again truly sense that I've made so many friends thanks to Pokémon over these past 20 years."
Nakagawa, who has watched the movie 5 times by now and cried loudly every time, then commented that this free vocal reactions screening "was such a wonderful time I seriously kept thinking "Are you me?" over and over as we laughed and shouted together as one".
Next, Director Yuyama came in, and the audience once again applauded loudly.
He then went on to answer questions from both Nakagawa and the audience about scenes and characters in the movie.
When he was asked what kind of people he'd like to go see the movie,
Nakagawa commented "I watched this movie together with my mother once too, and it does indeed make people that know absolutely nothing about Pokémon cry as well.
I think absolutely everyone can be brought to tears by the bond between Satoshi and Pikachu simply by thinking of Pikachu as the person that means the most to them personally.
I'd like all adults to watch this movie, including both those that know nothing about Pokémon and those that used to watch Pokémon back in the day."
Director Yuyama answered "20 years have passed, and those that watched as kids have become parents able to watch the movies with their own kids.
The parents will be able to talk about their own childhood, and the children can see it as something all new. I'd appreciate getting a wide variety of people to watch it."
