Wonder Woman #1 (and #0)
Before going in, I'll also say that early Wonder Woman is a fundamentally weird comic.
The Owl House S1E15-16: "Understanding Willow" and "Enchanting Grom Fright"
Luz being sent to a parody of gay conversion camps hits a lot different with her being actually gay.
The Owl House S1E7 and S1E12: "Lost in Language" and "Adventures in the Elements"
Episode seven, "Lost in Language," is where most of the positive is concentrated. Episode twelve, "Adventures in the Elements," is where most of the negative can be found. Not all, but most.
The Owl House S1E4-5: "The Intruder" and "Covention"
Luz can learn from Eda, but just as much by taking her as an instructive bad example as by imitation. Eda gets by, but life is harder than it needs to be for her and the people she ostensibly cares about.
Undone S1E1-2
The ambiguity is a big part of the show's allure, and that allure is very strong.
Transformers Spotlight: Megatron
It's a darkly funny peek at the social dynamics you'd need to actually justify the cartoon supervillainy of G1 Transformers.
Shadows House S1E7: "An Incomplete Map"
The most dangerous kind of person for any oppressive regime. Clever, unpredictable, and cares more about doing what's right than keeping herself alive.
Pepper Ann S3E6: "A Kosher Christmas"
Have any of you ever actually met someone who celebrates Kwanzaa? I swear to god, white children's TV writers in the 90's and 2000's were the largest demographic of that holiday's celebrants.
Shadow's House S1E6: "The Garden Labyrinth"
It seems like he's being watched. And like a senior Shadows his judging his judgements. Which calls the entire point of him into question. Hmm.
Frieren: Beyond Journey's End (S1E8-10)
My enjoyment of this series is probably going to fluctuate in exact inverse correlation with its demon focus.
Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part five)
I really hope we're going to learn why Heather hasn't been more insistent about the map.
Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part four)
The fox is just a fox. The maid outfit, however, is possessed by the ghosts of English aristocracy past, and causing Praem to hear the horns and hounds and feel the rising bloodlust whenever she looks at a fox.
Johnny the Homicidal Maniac #1
Am I saying that JTHM is trash? Yes. Absolutely. I think it's own creator would agree with that assessment. However, it's trash that occasionally - not always, not even often, but occasionally - has some real wit within it.
Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part three)
"I Need To Rescue My Sister From Hell, But I Can't Stop Getting Distracted By All These Hotties!"
The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh ("Find Her Keep Her" and "The Piglet Who Would Be King")
"Find Her Keep Her" doesn't feel very Winnie the Pooh, but it honestly feels like something better than that.
"The Piglet Who Would Be King," meanwhile, was simply written on crack.
Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part two)
Still want to know where she got the suit. And how I somehow imagined it before it existed, for that matter.
Katalepsis V: "No Nook of English Ground" (part one)
In my mind this is the house that every titled English nobleman either lives in or is desperately trying to avoid moving back into while still being too proud to sell.
"Oh My Goddess!" E1 vis a vis "Verthandi in the Middle" Ch1
I'm going to be reviewing the first episode of the 1993 OVA, alongside the first chapter of a kinda-sorta fanfic written by ArlequineLunaire.
