Heroes and ACs or Something #10 — Hand in a Box
December 6th, 2013
It’s no Dick in a Box.
Impressions:
I’d probably be more annoyed by the obligatory turn to the dramatic and inevitable angsting, misunderstandings, and shouting about "my true feelings" if I wasn’t so sick of its poor attempts at comedy. Also, Walmart can apparently add inciting wars to its list of sins after mass murder, slavery, prostitution, and I don’t even remember what else. Maybe it means someone will fight something again, which have been the few points in this affair where my interest has peaked. They actually tend to put a little effort into those scenes for whatever strange reason.
Anyway, people come back to take Phino off to be the new demon lord after she reveals that she doesn’t want to be. Episode over. Yep. That’s it. What could have probably been done in about a minute or so as a pre-OP hook instead ate up the entire 22 minutes because they also needed to fit in Phino laughing… again, Nova getting molested… again, Raul blushing… again and I’m sick of this bit so fill in the rest of the characters yourself. Or other important things like… *gasp* an evil amulet! How do we know it’s evil? Because we were told it was. At length. Forget it being covered in spikes and being a sickening green with some manner of reptillian iris, or even used this week because it’s not. God help us if they had actually just put the thing on her and it did whatever. I’m not sure my feeble brain could have taken that much excitement or suspension. Luckily, I have an entire week to ponder what evil it might do.

Aww…. they remembered they had a plot. How cute.
