Just saw the episode.
Panthro's stretchy arms are a little weird, but they remind me of Dhalsim from Street Fighter, so that's cool. And when they're not doing their stretchy thing, they look pretty badass.
The ThunderTank looks like a rolling fortress now. Thing is crazy. It'll be interesting to see all the modifications.
The kittens are still cute and cool and funny. And finally! Hoverboards!
The two new generals are pretty badass and threatening. In one episode they're more genuinely credible as villains than most of the time they had in the original show.
I like Lion-O's devotion to uniting the animals. I like that he stands up for the soldiers that deserted Mumm-ra's army, and I like that he sees that the lizards are only fighting out of fear of Mummsy.
The animation is still top notch. This is easily the prettiest show to watch on Cartoon Network. Even prettier than the vaunted SW: Clone Wars. I can't stand how plastic everyone in that show looks. One of the drawbacks of TV CGI, I guess. And man, the Berbil village is bright! But in a good way.
I like Cheetara's explanation to Lion-O. It's happened to me. It's happened to lots of people. You think a girl is totally into you and sending out signals, but then it turns out to be nothing (in my case the girl didn't even know she was sending signals). And you wind up feeling like an ass. And you're pissed off for a while. And you don't even want to see the girl anymore.
Lion-O's reaction is completely believable, only he's got the problem of having to see the girl and her new boyfriend on a daily basis. That has got to suck, when you're still trying to get over your own feelings. Still, I like that he at least tried to put on a happy facade for them early in the episode.
Later on though, when Tygra and Cheetara disapprove of his tactics, he instantly makes it about their relationship. They weren't throwing their relationship in his face, but he couldn't help but see anything but that.
And for those that think Cheetara betrayed Lion-O by surrendering, consider this. The mutants threatened to kill Tygra. Lion-O says, "There's still 2 of us!" as though losing Tygra would only be a minor inconvenience. He's still thinking irrationally, and at this point he doesn't deserve Cheetara's loyalty. He betrayed Tygra.
At the end of the episode after they've escaped, and Panthro tells them they just need to stick together, notice that Lion-O hangs his head and can't even look at Tygra or Cheetara. He knows what he did. Hehehe.
