We are all different and thats just nature.
I LOVED this episode and so did my wife who had no idea what a Thundercat was/is before watching this with me.
I didn't see the writing as weak on this episode it did seem less dense than the past few episodes but you kinda need that after a whole mess of story. Its no different to The Last Air Bender (which this show seems to get compared to alot) in that respect.
This episode reminded me way more of The Last Airbender than others. It's the some of the same creative team - so no questions there. The co-creator directed lots of Avatar eps.
The similarity to Airbender is probably why I didn't love this. I think Airbender was very well done - and I respect the work on it. But as an adult, it was aiming too low for me audience-wise. Aiming down at kids - or write at their level. The writing is obvious - as maybe it should be. I crave more. You might argue this is a dumb gripe since these are kids' shows. And I would understand. My boys watched and loved Airbender.
I like that certain of the new TC episodes are rising above Airbender IMO. Anyway, I'm glad to hear all POV's. Maybe I was too hard on it. Just didn't float my boat. Perhaps it strayed too much into literal wannabe anime territory for me (which Airbender did in spades).
Personal Taste is personal taste. Cheers
