The fight between the Hound and Brienne was really hard to watch. I didn't even know who to root for; I loved both of those characters so much. And then I ended up tearing up when the Hound was dying and begging for Arya to kill him. He grew as a character and I think he really did end up wanting to protect Arya, and not just for money, and seeing him dying was heartbreaking. It will be cool to see Arya on her own. I do hope she meets up with Gendry again, wherever that boy is.
Overall though, this was a fantastic season finale!
I was wrong in my previous comment, this episode provides the most important contribution to the series--the Riker maneuver. Also, I really liked the small scene between Worf and Wes, and the later scene between Wes and Picard. Great writing and acting in both.
The ending for this episode had me rolling. "Sometimes things just sort of end."
Also a great little moment in this episode between Charlie and Mac that possibly further alludes to the fact that Mac is gay and Charlie knows about it.
Charlie: "Yeah, or ugly or sick or, or male or female or whatever it is that you like."
...
Mac: "I hate women"
Charlie: "Yeah I-I know that you feel that way."
Out of all of the episodes of Black Mirror that I've seen, this one seemed to have the happiest ending. Which is weird because her life is pretty much ruined as far as her score goes and who knows what happens to people who have that low of a rating, but seeing Lacie finally be able to let loose and say what she wants and just be herself was amazing. Great start to the new season!
They should just rename this season, "No one is taking Littlefinger's shit anymore." Also, I'm pretty sure Game of Thrones just ruined chicken pot pie for me forever...
Claire Temple showing up was really awesome! Loved the mentions to her other 'special' friend and her interactions with Jess!
"I'm going back to Hell's Kitchen... where it's safe!"
Hahaha Turk is the best!
Nooooo! Jon and Bran were so close to reuniting! :( I just want the few remaining Starks to be together, is that too much to ask? But at least we got to see a cute reunion between Jon and Ghost.
Great first episode! Really establishes the mood and setting for this installment of the Marvel shows on Netflix. Also, I love the idea of people selling copies of camera footage of "The Incident" on the streets. One of my favorite things about these Marvel shows is how they expand the Marvel universe on a more street level and we can see how civilians are living in a world of superheroes.
Can't wait to see how the rest of the season goes!
"I'm not for hire. But you have my word, ma'am... I've got you."
Ha! Claire Temple beating up the guy who stole her bag was awesome! Glad to see her back and kicking ass. They set some great ground work in this episode as well for future storylines for Claire and Luke. Claire becoming the Night Nurse and Luke becoming a Hero for Hire. Great stuff!
I agree with Izsák, this is the best episode of the season thus far! I like how they incorporated his original costume from the comics into this episode. He's right, it does look ridiculous on screen. But it's a really great moment for fans of the character! Also, the ending of this episode could provide for a really interesting story going forward since now the public knows about him and his powers.
Holy shit Col Mustang is a total BADASS
Cooper playing back the tape and hearing Waldo the bird repeat what Laura said on the night of her death was probably one of the most chilling scenes I've ever seen in TV.
This was just a standard recap episode and the series really could have gone without it but the part at the end with all the past villains talking on the phone together and Varrick narrating was pretty damn hilarious.
Wow. WOW! WOW! What an incredible episode! The animation, the OST, the voice acting, the hype! Once again, this season just continues to blow my expectations out of the water. Next episode is going to be incredible!
Hands down one of the best episodes in all of My Hero. This season just continues to be shaping up to be the best of the best.
I am so glad Coulson told Skye about her origins instead of withholding that information from her. It's too often that shows rely on miscommunication in order to create drama and conflict and I am glad they didn't go that route because Skye for sure would have been angry at Coulson if he hid the info from her. Great episode.
When the Chimera Ant King first showed up in this show, I didn't think it a possibility that I could regard him with any emotion other than hate. I definitely did not think I would cry for his death. Any yet... Hunter x Hunter proved me wrong.
Good night, Meruem. Thank you for being an amazing, compelling, complex villain.
Killua: Gon... you are light. Sometimes, you shine so brightly, I must look away. But even so, is it still okay if I stay at your side?
Me: loudly cries my eyes out
I just absolutely love the bond that Killua and Gon share. Their friendship is so pure and full of love and loyalty to one another.
Man, that backstory for One For All/All For One was amazing! It's really interesting to see the history of quirks first appearing and how it caused a lot of unrest among society. Reminded me a lot of the themes brought up in X-Men comics, which is fitting considering that MHA takes a lot of inspiration from western superhero comics.
Also, if All Might could just stop giving off so many death flags and let me not get emotional for an episode, that would be great.
I'm not even embarrassed to admit that I cried my eyes out at the end of this episode. What a phenomenal show.
Iain De Caestecker as Fitz is phenomenal. I've loved him since the beginning but with the new direction his character has taken, you can really see him shine as an actor. He had the best acting this episode by far!
This episode was so, so good! There are always some really great humourous lines in this show but I thought this episode in particular had some great ones.
Coulson: Say hello to Stark for-- Oh, yeah. Never Mind. He thinks I'm dead.
...
Hill: I can't believe he shot Lola.
Coulson: I can't talk about it.
...
Coulson: Finally some good news.
Computer: Perimeter defenses activated.
Coulson: I should have knocked on wood just then.
...
Coulson: If I come out, will you shoot me? 'cause then I won't come out."
Also, I loved when Deathlok threw the words that Ward used on Skye back at him. This show has great writing. Looking forward to seeing them work off the grid in the upcoming episodes.
Honest, moving, heart-wrenching, and at times, incredibly difficult to watch-- 13 Reasons Why impacted me more than any other recently released show has. Maybe more than any other show ever has or ever will. It's not an easy watch, but I believe that everyone should give it a chance. Because it is the type of story that needs to be told.
If you are contemplating suicide, are depressed, or feeling alone, please reach out to someone.
Wow, the fact that Jiayang actually drains the life out of others in order to heal herself makes the story of that entire town dying much, much darker. Cal pieced her together again and she drained the life out of all of the townspeople in order to rejuvenate herself. Also, what a great redemption for Raina. "The thorn protecting the daisy". She knew Jiayang was going to kill her, but she let herself die so that Skye could see the truth.
Gods what an episode! Very much the best one so far; went from being one of the funniest to the most shocking and heartbreaking.
So I was pretty disappointed at the end of last episode to find out they weren't going to have Roundabout as the ending song going forward, but holy crap now they are using Walk Like an Egyptian by the Bangles?! I thoroughly approve!!!
I really like Jotaro as the next JoJo so far as well. I'm not sure if I like him more than Joseph yet, but I really where they are going with him personality-wise. And the introduction of Stand to the power system could be really interesting-- I can't wait to see what they do with them and how they choreograph fights with them.
Well, this anime just took a turn... The entire second half of this episode was really brutal and hard to watch. Particularly the scene of the son drowning in a bathtub filled of his father's blood. Yeah... that scene is going to stick with me for a long while. I'm really interested to see where this anime is going to go from here though.
