As Cosmonaut Marcus writes, "It was whatever."

  • There's no tension in the fights because, of course, they're going to win.
  • Falcon with the save! Superheroes are actually saving people; thank you.
  • The story: I'm right, discouraged by obstacles, I'm right again; no lesson learned
  • Bucky saved some people!
  • Do all these ordinary people train or just happen to know karate (the Flag Smashers)?
  • And Walker doesn't go for the save.
  • Nvm, Walker goes for the save!
  • Wow, Sharon is the Power broker; what a relevant revelation. It's nice to know our theorists are right.
  • Karli wishes she was Killmonger, huh?
  • Falcon: You're right; I don't understand, but you Senators need to start asking "why?"!
  • "U.S. Agent"? Ok, sure.
  • WoAh, I wonder what AGeNt CArTer is up to?

There are some important messages but no revelations, lessons or challenges. Falcon just hears Bradley say, "don't do it", and does it and does fine, because...? So he had self-doubt, hears more doubt from someone else, but does it anyway?

The Book of Boba Fett: 1x02 Chapter 2: The Tribes of Tatooine

With an extra 14 minutes (including the credits), "The Book of Boba Fett" decides to use its time to show Boba Fett attack some thugs, take down a train, and do a dance around a campfire. Yes, I like the message that Indigenous people (the Sand People) shouldn't have to hide. Yes, I enjoyed the confrontations in Mos Espa. But with no character development, plot or conflicts, I'm worried about this series' trajectory.

Once again, the concept art looks cooler than the actual show (unlike "The Mandalorian", which looks as cool (if not cooler) than its concept art).

Edit: The flashbacks feel like sidequests since Boba's never morally questioned. He's just positioned as the good guy (even though he's had questionable morals in the comics, movies and "Star Wars: The Clone Wars"). He just takes down monster, takes down train, gets a staff and dances.

The Book of Boba Fett: 1x06 Chapter 6: From the Desert Comes a Stranger

Again, I like the episodes with Boba Fett barely in it (this is again just "The Mandalorian" Season 3).

  1. Ahsoka calling Luke Skywalker by his first name while Mando calls him Skywalker (because Anakin is "Skywalker" to her).
  2. Ahsoka strongly against attachment perhaps because of Anakin's fall to the dark side (IDK understand Luke's, though. TESB makes it feel weird).
  3. CAD BANE KILLED COBB VANTH.

The Book of Boba Fett: 1x04 Chapter 4: The Gathering Storm

I'm getting tired of this show now.

  1. The deal between Boba and Jabba's old captains makes zero sense
  2. There's a scene where a wookie attacks some trandoshians for seemingly no reason (other than he was bored?) just so Boba could hire him.
  3. Why wasn't the flashback in episodes 1 or 2?!

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power: 4x01 The Coronation
  • Yo, Glimmer's new haircut
  • Oh, the intro is the same
  • Nvm, no, it's not
  • Aunt Casta is brutal
  • Woah, Frosta, calm down now
  • RIP Perfuma
  • Bow and Adora be freaking out together, and it's freaking me out
  • This day is chaotic
  • Catra's breaking Scorpia's heart
  • Ikr, Glimmer. Planning your own party, SUCKS
  • Team combo?
  • Oooh, sparkly
  • Oh, those tiny wings were foreshadowing for her actual wings
  • Nope, nvm
  • Woah, Catra. This is treason

Look, not the best episode, but with three seasons to back up their friendship, Adora, Bow, and all the other princesses' words of support and encouragement do mean a lot. It's pretty wholesome, even if it is bittersweet. Again, it's not the best episode, but it's got good intentions.

The Book of Boba Fett: 1x03 Chapter 3: The Streets of Mos Espa

Funny how the episode with the least amount of flashbacks is my favourite. Unfortunately, I've come to ask myself a pressing question: Why should we (or Boba) care whether he keeps control of Mos Espa? In "Star Wars: A New Hope", we cared whether the Rebellion destroyed the Death Star because we knew the Rebellion was stationed on Yavin IV—lives were at stake.

Why should we care if Boba loses Jabba's empire? What's at stake?

Arcane: Season 1

Against all odds, Netflix's "Arcane" pulls off an incredible feat. Through stunning animation, competent storytelling, and a heartbreaking score, the series paints a tragic world. It's full of loss and hardship. It deals with themes like progress, time, and civil war. But in the middle of this civil unrest is a tale about betrayal and sisterhood.

I'm ashamed I enjoyed this series less than others, but maybe after a rewatch, my mind will clear. If there's one thing I'm confident about, it's the series' visuals. Continuing the trend born from "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse", "Arcane" is 3D animated with a 2D aesthetic. The studio designed its characters this way, and it overlays 2D elements as well. If there's one reason to recommend this series, I assure you it's because of the visuals.

"Arcane" reminds us that our world is fractured. There are no "good guys" or "bad guys", simply those who are more fortunate and those who are just trying to get by. But it's difficult for both to create positive change, and this show displays that with grace and finesse.

Btw, Caitlyn is my favourite character. Don't @ me :P

This episode is okay. I don't know, I thought it would pick up in Season 5, but it's losing me. I miss Seasons 2 and 3. Well, let's see how it all ends anyway.

"As my blood type always says, 'B' positive!"

Todd :)

This episode is so heartwarming! We got happy endings for Todd, Bojack and Hollyhock, Princess Carolyn and, oh, nevermind. But it's mostly positive! Todd's clown-dentist caper got a hilarious resolution with a satisfying pay-off. BoJack's words to Princess Carolyn by the episode's end were exactly what I'd hope to hear. And those last words, man—I've never shed tears of happiness before.

"Where's my random detail that's gonna suddenly make everything make sense?"

That's too meta, man! XD

Anyway, the end of Diane and Mr. Peanutbutter's plotline was sad—Mr. Peanutbutter's words are too authentic. His character just received way more depth, and I'm too sad right now. He just wants to be a good boy! He wants love! IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK!?!

"So remember, once you're in there, don't stop running."

Todd no!

This one is such a heartwarming and slightly heart-wrenching episode. It gives me all the feels, and I'm so glad I got to experience it. Oh, man, I'm watching Bojack Horseman.

This episode isn't very PG. I mean, people get decapitated! Including David!

But it was fun, endearing and gave some excellent development for David, who we've only seen so much of this season. I'm glad the writer's dedicated this and the last episode to Frida and David, allowing them a chance to shine. It's nice. I also loved the adventure outside the wall. I don't know about the episode ending with Vikings killing and bringing themselves again and again. This episode was the darkest one yet!

Let's go Todd!

It was nice to see somebody looking out for BoJack when he was starting out (and I saw a little bit of Seinfeld there). It's a shame that guy had cancer and six months left to live. That's so sad. And Todd, let's go. Now BoJack is looking out for Todd, and he's actually gotten to know him. Now they're better friends. It's a shame to see what that video game did to him though. And I know someone who's been like that before.

It was kind of creepy to see Wayne stalking Diane and Mr Peanutbutter was hilarious this episode. I'm still unsure of what happened in the last bit. I guess we'll see how it pays off.

This is better. Much better.

Hilda: 1x08 Chapter 8: The Tide Mice

I know Hilda meant well, but she should've read the footnote. There was no reason for her to be in a rush!

I like this episode, it's good, but it has so much potential and could've used a few tweaks to improve it. For one, foreshadowing for the footnote would've been useful. There is no indication that there would be side-effects or that Hilda should've read some footnote. And two, that enchantment is kind of useless. It gives them good luck for thirty days but then steals their souls. What's the point of that enchantment? And what do you do with your friends' souls, anyway? Also, that autotune on David was a bit weird.

But I like what they tried to explore in this episode. Alfur is fantastic and helpful, as always. And they gave Frida a reason to be there, which is nice. It was such a simple story, but it works.
