GARO #02 — But Daaaaaaaad!

October 10th, 2014

  

I don’t wanna have seeeeeeex!

Impressions:

What ever could this mean!? Besides that though, all the prince’s stuff was just kind of… there at the start(ish) and end with the actual meat of the episode being recruiting the obligatory XY chromosomes to the party, but she’s a tough girl so she’s totally not officially joining up yet. It strikes me as about 8 minutes of content that they had no idea what to do with and it ended up slapped on. The monster design continues to be exceptionally unfortunate too. If you thought Waddlesaurus Rex was lame looking last week, they’ve upped the ante by this week’s monster being a guy stuck in a box. The box just kind of… hops around. Or perhaps its one of those disturbing latex fetish body cover things. The most inexplicable moment probably goes to the horsebutt at the end which was bizarrely overanimated.

The characters continue to remain well above average though, dad especially, and the action while not great and still overly CGIed is certainly far from embarrassing itself as many other ‘action’ shows this season are doing. I’d still rather see a little more adventure from the traveling about and a lot less court intrigue, of both the royal and the random magical witch demigoddess or whatever the hell that person at the start was supposed to be. I wouldn’t mind if the prince and his entire side of things just disappeared and was never mentioned again either.

Next Episode:

If you’re reading this, then I’ve forgotten to change the template.

    Goddamn that Dad is awesome. I do wonder if he really banged that witch or if he just took her son in. He doesn’t strike me as the kinda of guy that would just let his woman get captured and burned like that.

    MC is pretty fucking awful.

  • The Phantom says:
