Yeah, I loved that whole "trilogy of ending themes" idea too. And the extended version of the Galactic Battles theme song, which is probably my favorite PUSA opening theme so far.

I'm with you guys, I liked Arceus' voice too, although pronouncing it "AR-KEE-US" seemed weird at first. Great movie overall, probably second to Darkrai - I enjoyed the animation, the music, the somewhat more mature themes...

Speaking of which, what's this "die" thing Ash was talking about? Surely he meant "faint" or "be destroyed."

When I first heard PCI's (they're no longer PUSA, they combined with Pokemon UK) pronunciation of Arceus it was a bit weird for me. Now I'm used to it. However I still pronounce Arceus in the original way (also in my head) which is Ar-see-us or Ar-say-us.

(PCI, or TPCI, is short for The Pokemon Company International btw)

Oh, ok. Cool.

Yeah, I'm the same way - by the end of the movie, the English pronunciation sounded fine to me, but when I see the word somewhere it still sounds like "Ar-see-us" in my head.

Gah, I know. I'd been pronouncing it "Ar-kee-us" ever since I first heard of the thing and had to teach myself to say "Ar-say-us" after I first saw Japanese ads for the movie... and now I'm stuck thinking of it as "Ar-say-us". >_<

Not to mention that saying "Arceus's" when pronounced the English way is extremely rough, as Sheena so kindly demonstrated for us in the movie!

I mainly like Arceus's voice when it's speaking normally. Especially when it said "how pitiful".


I'm with you there. Arceus's voice really threw me off at first, but around that scene is when it really started to grow on me.
