I did watch this episode once already like I said. Unfortunately I don't have spicy thoughts. I remember something not clicking with me as much but I'm taking that with a grain of salt. I was watching it on my phone and the ads and buffering totally ruined the mood
-
Fun fact: I was up until 5:45am last night🙂 not watching high guardian spice. doing a comsci homework that went sideways. and then hyperfocus kicked in and then well
-
Will take a one-tweet break from this to congratulate Indian Marxists and farmers for kicking their government in the ass.
-
"I am too young and attractive for this" is a lesson we all need to learn
-
The actual quest they have to do, just go in a cave and find magical water is pretty generic
-
I find it interesting that Rosemary's first instinct is to just hide a mortal wound. We will put a pin in this
-
she does such a good job of hiding it switching from haha jokes mode to serious mode is kind of hard narratively
-
Did the voice director take a day off or something like
-
Rosemary: *explains truth or dare* Thyme: "but what if you do neither?" Rosemary: "then fun dies" Thyme: "sounds like a mercy killing"
-
"that's how you catch TB"
-
Re: death again a place you could go is to argue that Rose having her mom disappear on her just normalized the idea of just dying at every moment
-
So they just kinda ride a dragon ex machina out of the cave and it turns into a skeleton and explodes and Rose is like "Is that how stars are made? 🥰" and Sage is like "uhhhh"
-
this is literally just the CWT catgirl and @WirecatsComic should sue
-
Okay no I'm being serious now DO YOU KNOW ELSE OLIVE IS LIKE LOW KEY because catgirl forced by shadowy antagonists to follow our protagonists, but is conflicted about hurting them herself it's literally the same I will not be fielding questions
-
guy who has seen one cat girl: "this is kind of like the one cat girl"
-
Okay so the TL;DR on this one is that they tried to combine the kind of punchy, highly characterized writing of the last two episodes with the more serious, conflict driven writing of episode 4 and it... eh
-
The banter is great, loving it. But as soon as they try to land a Serious Emotional Beat it's just not there yet for me. The pacing is weird, the scenarios are cliche, it doesn't always feel like the voice actors were told how a scene should be acted
-
I will move on to episode 8 and then sleep
