This episode was amazing! Even better than the first, which I thought was hillarious with an incredible storyline. This episode was those things and more.
One thing I forgot to mention in the last review was the animation. It is WONDERFUL. In this episode especially, the colours are vibrant and glowing in every scene. It really does a good job of making you feel like you're in a sci-fi show, much like Rick and Morty. Speaking of vibrant, let's talk about the characters.
The characters in this episode are bursting with personality in this episode. Not only do they have great jokes almost all the time, they are also able to have a layer of good old depth. (Again, like R&M). Avocato's sadness and desperation to find his son (which, btw, I thought was a great addition to the story. I'm glad Avacato isn't just one of those side characters who tags along because the story requires him to), Gary's persistance for admiration, and HUE's...HUE. Oh, and Just so you know, I actually think HUE is my favourite character in the series. And I'm glad this episode didn't focus on Mooncake this time. Also, I like how this show is already dealing with character changes/development, like Avacato's newfound friendship, and Gary's new arm.
Overall, with an even better chapter of this story, I was even more satisfied than I thought I would be. I think I said in the last review that episode 1 set up a high bar for quality, and, I must say, this episode pole-vaulted right over that bar. I am stoked of what's to come. (I've been waiting to say "stoked" until I found the right moment, and I think this is it.)
I just realized what the scene is in the beginning (with Gary having only an amount of time left for oxygen): A TIMER, building up to the last episode! Man, you guys probably figured that out already, but I still think it's cool.
Rating: 8.9/10
