Dog Days #25 — And the Temple of Doom

September 22nd, 2012

 

Coux is Short Round.

Impressions:

We continue the last month or so’s theme of "What the hell is this show doing?" by bookending the episode with everyone dressing up as Captain Clueless and a concert. And what’s in the middle? Coux, Rico, and Noir go dungeon diving because one of them is already feeling loooooooonesome. I don’t even know how they picked that trio. I’m not sure any of them have even exchanged word one with any of the others before this point.

And then masturbation-fantasy form Shinku showed up to save them from a slowly descending CG rock while Becky had the bright idea to just shoot it. With a strong enough blast to destroy her ribbon. Gasp! And then he stared in shock at her with her hair down and stars in her eyes. Remember, rapid mood swings and eye stars are a sign of melodrama to come. Also, I miss the time when they at least fought random rabbit monsters of the week instead of rocks.

    I think Noir helped Rico with her hero summoning research at the end of the first season. As such, it makes sense that they’re the two who want to visit the ancient library.

    Okay, I’ll go out on a limb here:

    I say this season ends with all the hero’s being trapped in El-Hazard and unable to go home. To get home, they have to hack the Goddess System which is under the control of someone’s step-mom (who wears a hairpin in back) and who created the entire world as a video game.

    I think it’s also reasonable to assume that the blond hero king had quite a bit of indiscriminate sex on Earth at some point since “Sink” is a related somehow. So I suppose we get the Star Wars, “Luke, I am your father.” deal at some point.
