V Bros Season V #Ψ — URGH
June 9th, 2013
Not just the sound I made at the end of the episode.
Impressions:
I’m getting unpleasant flashbacks to the start of last season’s first half season, a part of the show which I’ve mentioned more than a few times that I was not a fan of. As I said last week in a post having nothing to do with this show besides the tits, I really hate Hatred, which is kind of ironic when you think about it. He’s a poor substitute for Brock’s competence, violence, and general 80s everything that provides a good balance against… well… everything else. And now Hatred’s having flashbacks which will no doubt be even more focused on later? Be still my bloody beating heart. This episode had a lot more problems than just him and his apparently permanent breasts though.
I’m not even sure where the humor was supposed to be most of the time this week. The references? Was I supposed to clap my hands like a harp seal because they brought back Venturestein, the Shaggy/Son of Sam expy, and I’m sure others that more obsessive people will recognize? That Hank ate coffee and pretended to be Batman? "Mad scientists live in jungles and make animal people"? Granted, it didn’t have the tragic violin that Japan would have surely shoved in to make it a Very Special Episode of Fullmetal Alchemisttm, but there weren’t actually jokes in there either. It’s like they got as far as premises and just stopped before going onto something else. They weren’t even inately inane like Catclops, just… animal people. One pissed on something once? Was that all? It probably would have also helped if the plotting wasn’t all over the place too. Every five minutes, the story seemed to go careening off in a different direction with all the required exposition for such and little else.
Next Episode:
If you’re reading this, then I’ve forgotten to change the template.
