The story of the maiden was so beautifully romantic and sad. I felt vey sorry for her but her spirit seems to be at ease. Also I'm glad that Ash and Misty danced together at the festival, it was cute.

Not overly impressed by the episode. Probably the worst one up until this point.

Wow, kinda surprised that so many didn't like this episode. It's strange how this show is so simple yet sweet. This episode really managed to move me, and this is one episode I've been wanting to see again. Ghastly leaving was pretty cool, since he wasn't so bad after all, and I like that Ash and Misty danced together.

I guess there wasn't a whole lot of action in this one, but I thought it was interesting with Ghastly countering each Pokemon like that. Though, of course they decide to make a weasel Pokemon in later Gens, lol.

I'm not sure what site you watched it on or what... but Bye Bye Butterfree is episode 21. Just look it up on the wiki.

Eh. Another weird one for a kids show. I mean I'm not a kid but this would be even worse if I were. Just the overly-horny Takeshi (Brock) falling for some 2000 year old chick just because. We were introduced to Gastly but in a weird way to do with some utterly pointless story of a some maiden who waited. I'm sure we'll get a better, more comedic encounter with Gastly and his evolutionary line at some point. Yeah, these last couple of episodes (since they got taken away by a Gyrados tornado tsunami thing) have been a bit poor :/

Look into Millennium Actress. Similar concept.
I'll add on to say look into Kara no Kyoukai's first chapter as well. Ghosts are very similar.

It's not the best episode, but it's not the worst, either, I still liked it. Ash and Misty also danced together, and the deceased maiden had a happy ending. (It is inspired by a true story).
Sometimes otakus are rejected by society, so I discovered that it is much better to be an
otaku in secret.

Are we just gonna ignore the fact that Ghos can talk? Not just as a human, not with a impediment or catchphrase, but like a normal human and as his pokemon self even! What cheats does this one have on?!

And of course he's, somehow, a money-loving pokemon. Like what? xD

I can't believe it took me this long to realize the narrator is the Professor...

Beyond that, I kinda like the atmosphere of this episode. It kinda sucks they revealed Ghos right at the beginning, but I wish there were more yokai-creepy episodes.

Gastly was pretty badass. Also that pokemon fusion concept was pretty interesting and I wish we saw more of it.

Screamer at the beginning of episode. And yes, the ghost is really beautiful. Too bad we won't see her again. Does the Gastly's spell work on me too?

This episode had me laughing the whole time
Ghastly randomly talking, a dead-ass normal animal attacking Ekans, then Ghastly revealed he was doing it for the money LMAO
I did like the end where they showed Ash, Misty and the Team Rocket at the summer festival. They all look cute.

Also, poor girl...
