Holy shit Col Mustang is a total BADASS
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.
Yes!! Now that's what I am talking about!! I think this is exactly what I needed out of this anime. I already absolutely love this new JoJo and the new setting is a welcome change as well. Hopefully this show just keeps getting more bizarre!
The backstory for Jousuke's hairstyle being the way that it is, and why he gets so upset when someone insults it, was unexpected but very welcome. It appears that Jousuke used some form of time travel in order to save his younger self and I really can't wait to find out how that came to happen-- whether it was the result of an enemy stand power, or some hidden ability that his own stand holds (similar to the way that Jotaro has the ability to stop time). Regardless, I'm excited and I also really hope that wasn't the end of Rohan. I really liked his ability.
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.
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.
Ahhh, Gon... it hurts me so to see you this way. After following his journey and happy-go-lucky attitude for 90+ episodes-- to see him so full of rage and resentment is really heartbreaking. I'm almost afraid to see how far he will go down the path of vengeance. I'm glad that Killua is able to be there to calm him down, but I'm not sure that when the time comes to actually fight Neferpitou, he will be able to.
And seeing Kite so broken is just terrible. I really hope there will be some way they can save him from the puppeteering, but I really doubt he will come back as his true self. Maybe if Ging actually showed up when times are looking dire for once he could help...
I feel like it was a bit of an oversight to use regular glass instead of transparent aluminum on the interiors of the ship, especially right next to the dilithium crystal chamber! OSHA would have a field day!
This episode provided two of the most important contributions to the series--Riker playing the trombone and the Riker/Picard dual power walk through the Enterprise. Truly magnificent.
Riker wearing the Angel One outfit is truly a gift to mankind.
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 hope they have free express shipping in heaven" 10/10
"I'm going back to Hell's Kitchen... where it's safe!"
Hahaha Turk is the best!
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!
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.
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.
"Sweet Christmas"
Claire, you are simply the best.
Well, the fight choreography was better in this episode but it still leaves a lot to be desired. It was cool seeing him go through the different stages though. And holy crap, Lei-Kung the Thunderer!!! I'm glad we are seeing more of him and finally hearing him talk! His voice is godly.
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.
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.
"Ward Meachum sends his regards."
Silly show, Danny Rand is Loras Tyrell not Robb Stark.
