I started this on a whim to wash out the grim (and excellent) taste of Castlevania out of my mouth with something bright and colorful and gay and I would just like to say this show kicks rear end and I love it. Psyched for future seasons. Shout out to Scorpia. And Mermista. And Entrapta. And pretty much every character tbh Only actual issue I had with it was the ludicrously fast turnaround time all the protagonists had on changing their mind about stuff. Apart from Glimmer not trusting Adora for like an episode and a half the rest are all stubborn for maybe 10 minutes at most before going "yeah ok sure" to whatever the issue was. But it's a show for kids and 13 episodes doesn't leave the most room in the world when you're spending half of them introducing the cast, so I get why it was like that.

HappyKitty posted:When you consider that in the original, The Great Rebellion took all of ten seconds to take He-Man's word for it and accept Adora into their ranks, this current Adora's acceptance arc might as well have been measured by geological time by comparison I have zero prior knowledge of, history with, or affection for any previous Grayskull-adjacent fiction so that's news to me v  vGood to know the characters are more discerning these days though.

Zerilan posted:Kinda binged through it this morning. Was pretty good. First impression during some of the fights is that it kind of hits my usual annoyance with a lot of fantasy/supernatural action stuff that like, it's hard sometimes to sell the heroes being underdogs in a conflict when the good side has like, most of the really super powerful characters. I was going to say "well the Horde has the advantage of sheer numbers" but I guess thinking about it you don't ever actually see that until the finale, which was still only a couple dozen guys. There's kind of a problem with scale. The big picture never really gets shown and is just sort of implied by the fact that the heroes are the ones being called a rebellion, meaning the Horde are the ones with the most control at the moment.
