Right... so, um, i just discovered that Ichimura Masachika, the man who played Erik in the Japanese production of "The Phantom of the Opera" (in the 90's), was chosen by Kunihiko Yuyama (director of the first Pokémon movie) to voice Mewtwo in the first "Pokémon" movie. And Yuyama was actually inspired by Erik's (The Phantom) character to write Mewtwo as a tragic, sympathetic villain that struggled with his own existence as he learned how to be a better person in the end... Masachika himself said he was surprised because Mewtwo is pratically The Phantom, but Pokémon version. Except that he wasn't abused because of his physical appearance as Erik was, sure, but the point still stands!
I'M DYING, MY BOTH FAVORITE THINGS EVER, CANONICALLY CONNECTED 🥺❤️

Looking around through Pokémon wikis and I realized that Volo was not the first guy in the Pokemon universe to wear a haircut that covers one eye and dress up like the legendary Pokémon he’s obsessively trying to get power from
