*How popular Pokemon STILL is.

Jimmy, I feel like Pokémon is an integral part of Japanese culture, particularly under the subcategory of animated series. In terms of loving the cuteness of the characters, there is no age boundary, much like with Snoopy and Hello Kitty. Kids typically grow up with the storylines and characters starting from the age of 3 and up. In my daughter's case, her core interest in Pokémon shifted to other sports-related anime like Blue Lock as she developed an interest in playing sports with friends. However, new generations continue to start collecting Pokémon cards, maintaining the cycle (like some of my wife's students). It's somewhat similar to how Transformers or Peanuts are cherished in the US. New seasons are still coming out. And you see the themes around more than you see Mickey in the US. :-). At least how I felt.
