Nu Pogodi Episodes: Best to Worst
This would be a listing of the "Nu Pogodi" episodes in order of best to worst. I feel that the following is reflected by the choice of musical intrigue in each pertaining episode as well as the overall impression given by the flow of the episode in its initial output. I feel that the best episodes are Episode #3, #7, and #18 in terms of storyline and overall value of the BGM. Of course, background music plays a huge contributing factor to how the episodes are displayed, primarily due to the phenomenal effect of the soundtrack as a whole. As a Russian cartoon, it relies heavily on the soundtrack, which is congruent throughout the series as a fundamental part of its groundbreaking effect on history.
