Chrome Shelled Regios #19 — Romantic Moments
May 16th, 2009
Best had a mile in the air over a mountain of dead bugs.
Impressions:
Well, on one hand, I can’t deny that it was a rather entertaining episode, but on the other, my eyes were rolled so far back in my head for much of it that I could see my sinuses. Savaris stole the show by torturing the crap out of the awful awful doofus and then exploding a bug next to him for good measure, just to laugh like a maniac over it. Good man. That moron deserves it after Leerin managed to all but chase him off by discovering his deus ex machina trauma. Honestly. His weakness is someone tapping on the floor because it reminds him of a bug attack? Why did he even bother to show up in the first place? That ranks somewhere below Captain Hook’s fear of ticking clocks.
Of course, I’m sure for a lot of people, the tender moment between Nina and Layfon at the end will probably be the show stealer, but he still has yet to use her name, so I wouldn’t start ringing those wedding bells yet. I also have to wonder how that moment ended. They were going to fall right back into a swarm of giant evil bugs plus the rotting corpses of the ones Layfon already sliced up. Now that’s romantic. Nina spent most of the episode all hopped up on goat anyway. That’s the worst STD imaginable.
Much of the rest of the episode was decent enough, but I feel like I need Cliff’s Notes to understand anything that was going on. Our interdimensional superstar from WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY back in episode 3 finally makes another appearance, saves Nina, gets into a scuffle with Savaris, and then takes Nina off into another dimension to show her Legend of Regios. Yes, you watch characters watch their own show. If it recurses itself any harder, I think Fon-fon might end up his own grandfather.
Preview:
Apparently we don’t care about Leerin anymore.
