Pokémon DP Japanese Opening

[InvaderWakkoReborn]

The english dub gets worse while the japanese anime gets better. (in some areas)

Doesn't make much sense, but it's true.

[pikachu3525]

I know america has like nothing while japan has everything

[DawnAuroreHikari]

Dawn!

[donovan44446666]

i still think the first pokemon was better but i was born with pokemon so i won't stop watching

[Margauxpfan]

私はこの歌を最も涼しいの愛する。

私のため。 (高度の隣で)

[ategaby]

The english opening was badass -.-'

[Pikamaster]

@ategaby ... Hey guys, funny comment of the week.

[ategaby]

@Pikamaster o___o

[TOMMY95215]

Aah god japanese pokemon episodes RAPE the English and American ones. every thing about it does like the opening theme songs, the storylines seem to be better im not sure why but it just does probs cause i enjoy it more

[TokyoNerd]

After all theses years Ash finally changed his clothes. I can't imagine how smelly his other ones were..

[alucardloca]

i like more the version of "Simandcool" <<< its his/her account

[00AshleyGirl00]

i like the japanese version :*

[CordyBear1]

DP was more centered on "cute" I think, which is why I don't like it that much. I also miss Ash's original voice...

[NaiTaiDai]

They should at least try to translate the real songs, shouldn't they?

[TOMMY95215]

THIS RAPES ENGLISH VERSION. LOL I WISH I LIVED IN JAPAN. AWSOME CARS, ANIME, AND JAPANESE FOOD

[Diontjuhz]

@TOMMY95215 and tiny houses, and the food is 100% rice and fish

[TOMMY95215]

@Diontjuhz  I love rice and fish :P i cud get used to a small house

[sijotakane]

@Diontjuhz

and non drug-free, non gay-friendly.

[Klonoahedgehog]

I miss this saga already

[Jumpybeaver]

They used to do an alright job at dubbing the opening themes. Now a days, it seems like they don't care, and just do a poor job. And aww at 0:42

[KlipBourd99]

They better make the next OP death metal,i swear thats the one genre they havent done yet.

[drifter402]

GIVE US ANOTHER POKEMON DUB BY FUNIMATION. put back some of the pokemon usa and 4kids cast. get the jap openings translated 2 english like one piece and ouran (but better than ouran) better script = awesome

[DigimonDarkMaster700]

@drifter402 lets hope it happens

[ChampionChompy]

much better than the english's failed rap attempt. :P

[1997Celia1997]

¡Es es el mejor opening de pokémon!

[theLegendofZelda2009]

This is so awesome! I love it! I hate the new English ones, but the japanese ones are so much better! (The First 6 seasons of English Pokemon were good) but after that..

[CBreeze5g]

Man the DP openings are good but they will never beat the AG openings. I hope Best Wishes has better openings than DP. Also I hate the anime in the U.S now. The voices suck, yes people they do. The openings are horrendous as in no child should have to bare witness to that horror. I miss it when 4kids had the good opening and voices. That's two thing you can actually say 4kids did well.

[megadisneyfan2]

@CBreeze5g i think vizmedia no owns the rights 2 this anime

[Cherubi109]

The Japanese openings are sooo much better than the crappy English ones!!!

[BoreasRevenge]

00:54-1:28 best part! I love the voice I love the music! it's perfect!! Team rocket looks like so friendly! (L)

[kingdomXhearts1]

well pokemon DP Galactic battles was a pretty good opening song and yh but i still think the jap versions r better

[Sheote]

GOOD GOOD SMILE

[PuchikoNyu2]

I just realize at the end of the opening when Ash, Brock, and Dawn were posing the background 1:26 shows the map of Sinnoh!

I watched this opening countless times for years and I noticed it just now! Wow. D:

[ssj5haa]

@PuchikoNyu2 HOLYY............. WOW I JUS REALIZED IT NOW

[rubin2509]

japanese openings are the best of all

[luigirules1000]

@rubin2509 except for the johto and hoenn themes

[elimintoy]

much more better than the english opening of diamond and pearl. i still can't believe that they change the voice actors in battle frontier. we should have said no to the changes and Nintendo should have said something since they own pokemon.

[253flower]

me encanta este opening :)

[Azulatatis]

Ash is sooo hot and in the minute 0:54 Paul looks hot too but ash is better and Pikachu, Tortwig, Starly, Aipom and Chimchar looks cute n_n

[MrDragontamer2009]

yaaaaay japanese

[Greenman347]

At 1:14 lucario is like yuo want me to fight that! i dont payed enough for this

[gidelu]

perfect *-*

[upyoursize]

Lol where Brock just has a Bonsly.

[dawnwildcat]

much better than the english one

[Martinheah12345]

@NaruSakuHina5000 faggot dont listen to this music anyway fag

[NaruSakuHina5000]

0:54 - 1:00 BADASS!!!

[rockinriolu]

someone tell me the name of this theme please

;w; its pretty ful

[ereOemeAene]

@rockinriolu :

Together

[freakylocz14]

All English openings after Advanced Generation suck.

[plutu12345]

Great.

This is much better then the English one....

[DarkXxMatter]

this one is OK

but I prefer another singer

but the lyrics seem fine to me really

wonder what is means though

if it's the same, how sad really

[StrawHatcrew01]

totteoki fukutsu no kokoro motte hagai tenganzan koete yukou dare wo getto kana? dokode deau kana? waku waku kibun marude himitsu kichisa atarashii machi.. bokura wa susumu kagayaku toki no nakade yeah! yeah! yeah! yeah! amakunaisa batoru wa itsudatte karai? nigai? shibui? subbaine? ikiterunda dakara kanjiyou isshouni yeah! yeah! yeah! yeah! aqua jetto de futtoba shiteke moyamoya kibun kiribaraishite rokku kuraimu hora nori koetara good good smile! minna good good smile!

[excaliber2010]

WTF? Pokemon DOUBLE PENETRATION

[ttto]

nkhazov

[KartoRomixo]

GOOD GOOD SMILE! XD

[JonathanXRules]

this was the last good pokemon theme song they made

[Khabeny]

Have any of you guys seen the 13th Japanese Opening 'Greatest Everyday'.

That is so cool, and the English/US one's are just gay.

[Jareddude123]

Why is so long compared to Americas?

Thats not fair :(

[StrawHatcrew01]

@Jareddude123 the reason is simple -> JP opening always the best xD

[AshKetchum27]

we dont get this at all where i live just old eps repeated

[valzilla2000]

dangit it always freezes right before the epic part with turtwig!

[alfredadriano89]

Every generation of pokemon, the girl who travels with Ash always gets her bike zapped by Pikachu. Right?

[danyblues]

I know...is great

[TurboPikachu]

This beats all three U.S. Pokemon DP English openings, by a long shot. I'm starting to wish that these japanese theme songs should be used for the U.S. openings too. The English ones are a disgrace... :/

[VampireFreakKe]

Ya! why does Japan have all the cool stuff? ya know what I mean?

[lennoxjr]

@VampireFreakKe yeah

[hamrto]

GOOD GOOD SMILE!!

[BeafyBee]

lol pokey balls hehe

[TalaIsShining]

cool opening

I luv Shinji XD

[nstrunks]

@TalaIsShining But Shinji is a doushe bag :P

[TalaIsShining]

no idea what a doushe bag is,

but I think he is awesome, I luv bad guys XD

[VampireFreakKe]

No idea what that is? LMFAO

[TalaIsShining]

Shinji is the japanse name for Paul

[ichiguita]

this song is so pretty... better than the english one... I wish gary was in this opening ;_;

[Mohamed518]

i remember when i use to do extra chores so i can get money and go to a net cafe near my house to get new on diamond and pearl when news first started leaking out, cant w8 till news about gen 5 starts coming out so i can feel the same way

[enix9301]

you know i am enix9301 but i have the chickmucks singing on the pokemon opening and ending lol its my fe

[spyrothehuman]

I totally agree with you. mewtwo was the bomb

[WalrusDawgs]

POKEY FREAKIN MON

[WillandGraceSeries]

you know english openings would be great if they just used these and translated them

[Hazerethify]

SO PRETTY

[4kidshater]

The reason why the girl changes becuase the female protagonist changes.

RGBY: Misty, since there is no female hero (yet)

GSC: Misty again, but Kris and Gold make Cameos

RSE:May, Rival/Hero of RSE

FR/LG: Toei was being jerk offs and blowing of these games

D/P/Pt: Dawn, hero once again

HG/SS: Kotone has made cameos.

[mnm1321]

I love to compare Japanese and en theme songs, but I think that you should put en captions if you can. :)

[slyrocks3]

Why? the old ones are weak. Unlike all the D&P ones. (Well almost all of them.)

[DPSatoshi]

I think the story is getting much better,but the pokemons are getting a little strange.

But the story of the series is score 10

[hhamor]

@DPSatoshi Just see the pokemon in the Isshu Region.

[StakkelsJimm]

@DPSatoshi The Pokémons are looking more and more retarded! They are starting to run out of good ideas. It's probably just about making money

[majekaru]

@DPSatoshi

LOL story? Pokemon has a story? The Pokemon anime fucking sucks. The characters and plot are bullshit.

[TOMMY95215]

@majekaru his opinion dick head

[Pikamaster]

@majekaru Not sure why you'd even bother watching let alone responding to someone on a POKEMON ANIME RELATED video then. Goes to show how shallow you are. And yes, Diamond and Pearl has a story that's quite touching if you watched the thing.

[ategaby]

@DPSatoshi The beginning and the end of the series r always the best.

The middle is well..... ok :D

[Stripetail4EV]

@DPSatoshi I think that the peoples making up the pokemon are running out of ideas. If you look at some of the new pokemon from the new region they're making, you'll see what I mean.

[411837411837]

@DPSatoshi no kidding

[amvmaker123]

idiot! it shows Dawn, because misty is season 1, and may and max are like... season 4 or something!

[PocketMonstersFreak]

yeah but professor oak is season 1 and so is ashes mum

[MasterNinjaKitty]

yeah but they're in like every season. misty may and max are seasonal characters

[llmott]

Love the song!!

But one thing? Why they show Tracy, Professor Oak and even Ash's Mum and yet not Misty, May and Max?

[1234PepsiGurl]

people say pokemon went downhill when misty left (FALSE!!)

the dubbing went downhill 4kids turned 4shit and then they changed the dubbing to another company that ruined it even more.

thats my opinion

[Pizzachu1]

Just because the voices are different it doesn't make them worse. It's all about what you're used to.

[PocketMonstersFreak]

yeah, i dont give a crap what girl protagonist is in the story, personally i found it interesting to have may and max in ag instead of misty 24-7

[obligotoryoblivion]

So much better than the english op.

[jayashaira]

this song is always on my mind^,^

way,,way,,WAY BETTER THAN THE ENGLISH THEME!!

my favorite........

[adrianGGO]

It is WAAAAYYYY Better than the Eng theme as you say, rly love this one <3

[Pokedude45]

4Kidz ruins pokemon

Pokemons ONLY mistake was putting 4kidz in charge of english dubbing their totally changing the show (cutting out scenes changing music.etc)

THEY STILL have the originall voices from sceason one in japan

But here in america the voices are different

:(

[MimirinPro]

Nintendo owns the show now, though. They dub it. Ever since Diamond and Pearl there have been no edits, except to some swearing. They also restore alot of the change dialouge of old episode on there new DVD releases.

[kailygirl456]

i like this song i tried singing this when im not even japnese and never tried

[abundy33]

i gotta say, the japanese openings are way better than the english openings, especially the 12th season, i hate the english opening for galactic battles but i love the jap. opening for it

[velmax30]

wait huh? whose the kid next to the new girl at 1:06 ? I say new girl cuz I forget her name

[BrownieParadox]

Good, good smile~! *does a goofy smile*

8D

[Jh5kRadio]

Better than the English equivalent by FAAAR

yes I added 2 extra A's. At least I made my point.

[legof2]

I would actually enjoy this if this were the opening in the US instead of that "you gotta battle faster" shit. One thing I wonder about is why are all (I know I'm exaggerating, but most) anime openings about smiles?

[ares5566]

theyre not about smilies...

[rockinriolu]

@legof2

because smiles are win CX

[TofuPenguin1]

@legof2 Actually only Pokemon and kids ones since they teach friendship and work hard together, but I got to agree with you about the rap shit they tried to pull, but the newer ones are really good. But the Japanese ones always manage to top what they did before!

[SMGJohn]

Where can i download Pokemon Season 10, 11, 12 in Japanese!?

[13KagomeInuyasha13]

who sings it?

[SaskueSucks]

i cant believe ash traded his aipom to dawn to then let it stay in trading with pingpong, it evolved too but thats not the point it was my favorite of his arsenal

[SaskueSucks]

this rapes the english version, the after you hear this the english version will sound like yo yo new rivals yo we tryin make pokemon cool as we fight for survival yo boom ba bich yo nothing can stop us man yo diamonds and pearls

[perucha8291]

why is it "diamond and pearl"?

[nikodem123asdf]

because they called this season after games (not very creative)

[CaballeroMetalico]

i tought it was after Manga

[nikodem123asdf]

may by game is called after manga and anime after game who knowes

[BlademasterJale]

The Manga, Cards, Anime and goodness knows what else are all based on the games. THAT is what Pokemon is: an awesome video game. The show and most everything else can't even compare, though the manga was pretty awesome...

[carbonel001]

The Story after BATTLE FRONTIER

it got it's name from the games released at the same date and period

[Jayday12345678910]

the third sesons called diamond,pearl and platanum

[treeckolucario777]

No its called Galactic Battles. And yes it is somewhat uncreative to name it literaly after the games, but they all did in a way.

[Jayday12345678910]

i think thast only the american title

[treeckolucario777]

oh gotcha. in Japan they called it "DPpt", yes?

[Ruka22ed]

I LOVE JAPANESE VERSION +.+

D&P the best :D

FROM PORTUGAL

[pokefriend53]

I am tryng to learn japoneese, but I only know about 10 words for now

[lamemonsterman]

THIS OWNS THE ENGLISH ONE

[drako1956]

es mejor que el de latino america

[darkmatter247]

looks alot diffrent

[darkmatter247]

sounds alot diffrent

[pekluvs11]

[yuwei095]

i watch many pokemon and naruto RAW (including naruto shippuuden movie 2!!! i can help u understand what they are talking about) ^.^

[astroview120mm]

What the hell? GOOD GOOD SMILE!! Rofl, gotta love that Asian accent!

[Makisina11]

What is Ash's name in japanese? Is Dawn's name Hikari?

[yellowdotman]

Satoshi

[LaTeamRocket]

La Sonorité est beaucoup plus "Traditionelle" et c'est Genial ! ce n'est pas de la Pop/ Rock comme dans le reste du monde,

[Buisel25]

japanese is a good intro noobs

[Charcharblaze]

you guys serious?

The English version is 100x better. Good Good Smile? Lol..

For some reason all Japanese songs piss me off... I don't know why. >.>

[Mikeytheawesomesest]

Well if you don't them...don't watch and don't comment.

[poohunterrr]

minna good good smile (:

[p0kem0nmasters]

PLEASE Tell me your name OPENING THAT NOT BAD

[angelicthehedgehog]

Wow, I have heard the english version (and the swedish) and they are... well... not good ^^;

This version is better ;)

[tamiefraine]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

When they say"Good Good Smile",

It sounds like"Goo Goo Smile"

LOL!!!!!

[UglyPorkchop]

how do they go to the bathroom i mean come on everybody have to go to the bathroom

[astroview120mm]

It's not hard to find a spot you know.

[usssola]

wtf i heard this song before but i cant remember where

[grah55]

This opening has some of the same sounds found in Sonic Adventure Chao garden area. I know some of you know. good good smile

[thelittlebiggerman09]

you ever wonder why ash never age?

[Mikeytheawesomesest]

Maybe because he's...IMMORTAL?!

Nah..I guess maybe it would ruin the show or something...but i'd really to see what ash looks like as an older person.I mean come on,the only thing that's changed about him is his clothes...and his voice o.o

[abundy33]

they change clothes after every series, the voice was jst a change in the cast, nd yea dat would ruin da show if they age, why do u think in the simpsons bart is still in 4th grade for 20 years nd lisa's 8 yrs old?

[Mikeytheawesomesest]

Lol you're right.

[123chocobo]

mabey its because pokemon whith a very old Ash would be boring?

[Durbikins]

The only English Pokémon intro I really liked was the original.

[blueguy491]

i think japenese pokemon openings are way better than the english pokemon opening ones

[Mikeytheawesomesest]

This song absolutely lifts my spirit!

It has such an upbeat,joyful feeling to it.

Anyone listening to this song should feel the same thing.If not,then oh well,i'm not you!

[starpixel12]

Good good smile ^__^

[missimimi94]

this is way better than the english intro!!!

XxX

[miikku20]

cool : DD <3

[ZKagoX]

Lovely<33333 Dialga<3

[ChokoretoYumeDrawer]

I prefer the japanese openings than the ones in english.

[nephis4]

fun

[tokedrengene]

why is gary not in the theme

[506lenny]

Because Gary's not in the Diamond and Pearl series (I don't think). Ash's new rival is Paul.

[Mikeytheawesomesest]

He appears only a couple of times.Weird thing is,he's following in Professor Oaks footsteps now.

[deadlili]

Japanese opening way better than American opening

[ELsword08]

Japanese does darn good jobs with making OP and ED for Pokemon,way better than English and Japanese has great singing voice

[hazelcc]

I bet you , Paul is a great disgrace to his family. A pokemon trainer has to be kind,good to his pokemon,never abandon his pokemon even their weak. Paul is not fit to be a pokemon trainer.For Ash , He totally fits.

[PokemonDJX]

I agree. Paul needs an attitude change

[wtfchaos]

fun

[maliaana]

This makes me so happy. ^_^

... and at least this theme has a melody, as opposed to the English DP theme. xD

[yukijudaileo4]

Good good smile lolz ^^

[XiquillaLocaXRanma]

:) que suave

[hamtaro4eva]

this is way better than the crappy english version. the english version sounds like rap singing to me.

[darkzero16]

its a pure disgrace 2 music (english opening)
