Hello everyone and welcome back! Let's dive right in shall we?
Yo who else is shooketh this week to find out that Toru actually likes Yuki back?? We didn't actually spend any time with Hori and Miyamura this week cause the focus was on Yuki and how she's been struggling with her feelings for a while now. She and Toru have been fake dating at school since they pretended to be a couple a few episodes ago and during that time she accidentally told Sakura that she really is dating Toru and was super ashamed about it. I'm fairly certain that she meant to come clean by the end of this week's episode after finding out that Sakura confessed to Toru but after Toru said that he wasn't interested in Sakura, she stayed quiet. I'd like to imagine that she picked up on the hints he gave her but in actuality I'm sure that she needs him to outright confess before she realizes that he might like her too. Honestly I'm not sure that he realized it until she disappeared for like a week and he must have realized that his life felt empty and it made my heart smile every time he bashfully lit up looking at her.
Superman & Lois Season 1 Episode 4
Every week I'm more and more in awe of what a solid show this is. It will never replace the love I had for Arrow or the love I have for Legends but no one can watch this show and not think that it's literally a Superman comic brought to life. Every aspect of Superman, Clark Kent, and Lois Lane are written to perfection but I think my struggle is definitely in the fact that I enjoy watching beginnings so the fact that Clark and Lois have been married for 16 years already takes all the excitement out of their romance. There's no swoon worthy romantic moments for me to gravitate towards and neither Jordan or Jonathan are enough to fill the void especially since I'm not a fan of Jordan/Sarah either. Having said all that this week was interesting cause we saw more of the struggle that Clark has with balancing being Superman with Clark. I really like that he's not hiding that he's Clark from General Lane cause it gives us a dynamic that I always think is fun. It was pretty terrible of him to tell the boys not to go to their dad for help but I did like that it went full circle as to why Lois and the General have never been on great terms. I do wonder if there's a Lucy Lane in this world and whether we'll ever see her. Oh and also Morgan Edge is apparently in town cause there is a wide supply of Kryptonite in the mines of Smallville and can you just hear my eyes rolling into the back of my head??
Ahh to my pleasure it looks like Jonathan really will be talking about his feelings next week and in a very not Jordan blow up sort of way which is lovely. It also looks like Captain Luthor will be stalking Lois cause he knows that Superman came to help her which makes me worry for Clark's secret identity.
It was truly rough with a capital R watching this show after Superman & Lois. Of the two even though Flash gives me the feels, Superman & Lois has the better writing and it's never been more clear than during this finale. I don't know if it's cause the Flash writers were like let's tie up loose ends as fast as possible or if they really just gave up with the sci fi explanations already but everything felt super rushed. At this point I wonder if I even care if it makes sense though or if I'm just like meh superheroes. Barry woke up the old Speedforce by using love cause apparently Iris has had a bit of the Speedforce inside of her and that spark was enough to revive it making me low key wonder if Wally got his back too. Iris and Barry had the lamest reunion ever and I'm still over here like do the two actors hate each other or what cause they haven't had chemistry since like season 1! Earth 1 OG Harrison Wells popped up and had no purpose other than telling the team that he's a time traveler and leaving to go spend his life with Tess the wife that Eobard killed and I died at how the show didn't even bother to explain how he came back and was just like we totally explained off screen don't worry about it. I guess this does officially mean that Tom Cavanagh is leaving the show along with Sue and Ralph who returned this week in a hilarious way in order to wrap up Ralph without having to recast him. Love even saved Eva who decided that no she was a good person after all and returned everything back to normal and returned to the Mirrorverse.
I was curious to know whether the show would reveal the new villain for the season next week given that it should be the actual Season 7 premiere but it looks like we'll be getting a villain of the week instead though I have a feeling that some seeds will be planted to give us the season long villain. I can't imagine that they would ignore the fact that some people might only watch this episode if they hated season 6 and want to see if season 7 is worth a shot!
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1 Episodes 23
Raise your hand if you're also super depressed at the fact that next week is the finale for the first season of Jujutsu Kaisen!! I've seriously been having a blast with this show as you all know and I kinda adore that the final arc for this season was Megumi's! We saw that his sister is actually his stepsister and his dad and her mom got married and then ran away by selling Megumi back to the Zenin Clan that the dad escaped. Gojo stepped in though and stopped the sale by claiming Megumi as a Jujutsu Sorcerer but Megumi still grew up bitterly. He was pissed at the world for what he went through and saw both good and bad people as terrible and it wasn't until his sister got cursed into a coma that he realized how wrong he was. I also really adore that he might be a Gojo in training in terms of sheer power or at least so we've been hinted towards cause though Itadori is a badass and the most powerful right now, it's only cause of Sakuna. We did manage to find a new finger and that finger did end up being the reason that the curse of the bridge struck so now we just have to defeat the two cursed brothers and then eat the finger and all will be good!
So the first episode of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier hit this week and I can already tell what a gem this show is going to be. Whereas Wandavision was clearly a mystery, The Falcon And The Winter Soldier feels more like an actual Marvel movie. I love that this show feels like an extended action movie with a lot of character depth thrown in and that's one of the biggest highlights of these Marvel Disney+ shows. We already adore these characters from the movies but now we get to really sink into the nitty gritty. We follow Sam as he mourns the loss of Steve and we're clearly going to follow him on his journey to become Captain America like Steve wanted. We follow Bucky as he tries to figure out who he is in the present day and how to amend for all the wrongs he's committed. I was a little surprised that the duo weren't together at the start but it's obvious that this new Captain America will bring the two back together again. I'm guessing this hooded thief is going to be the main villain we chase and eventually we'll have a Sam v new Captain America fight but also low key I have to say that I knew that the plot of this show had the government get a random white guy to be the new Cap but the visceral hatred I had towards him was a surprising rush.
