Hello everyone and welcome back! Let's dive right in shall we?
Truly I don't know where this season goes from here cause I really thought that there's no way that Sara was actually cloned and is half alien now but with more and more proof it looks like yeah Sara really isn't the same person she was before. This confuses me on so many degrees cause if we're going with the logic that you can transfer consciousness from body to body, are we supposed to assume that your soul moves with you too? I mean normally this is all theoretical and stuff but it's canon in the Arrowverse that humans have souls as seen with Sara when we had to go get her from Hell and Oliver when he was stuck in Purgatory. I guess that has to be the case cause the show wants us to believe that our Ava though a clone is a full human with a soul so by that logic so must Sara? Also I don't know if I believe that Bishop was blown up cause it's too early in the season to lose our Big Bad but I mean Kayla is still out there too so there's that? I do have to say that it was super sweet when Sara proposed to Ava and I liked all the back to the future antics as well as Zari calling John out again for not having magic cause she knows him and adores him anyway which is adorable.
Based on the promo for next week we're headed back to the Wild West which might mean another Jonah Hex cameo? It does look like Sara tells the others about everything that happened so at least we won't have to sit around wondering when the other shoe will drop!!
Talk about a series finale penultimate episode you guys! I cried and cried and cried cause goodbyes really are the saddest even if there's a hint of happiness in the future as well. It's just that I like to imagine all my characters happy and together when I leave them so I never like when shows end with the main cast separating. At least here everyone is a Sohma or Sohma-adjacent so no matter how far they go eventually they'll all come home. Last week Kureno and Uo decided to leave and this week it looks like Kyo and Tohru will as well. I loved that we finally saw what Kyoko actually meant when she told Kyo that she wouldn't forgive him after the accident. She was actually talking about the promise he made to her years ago about protecting Tohru and I imagine if she could see them now she would never be happier seeing the two so in love. I do think it's crazy that after all this time we still haven't seen Tohru's dad or heard that love story when I know it was so important in the manga but I guess we also haven't seen how Manabe knows Tohru either. Speaking of Yuki and Machi kissed this week and truly it was still so random cause of all the couples in this show they're the ones I least care about even if we've seen less of others! Akito also decided to take a step forward by revealing the fact that she's a woman to the zodiacs and formally letting them go but deciding against giving them an empty apology and instead sticking around the estate to make amends. She and Shigure are finally a couple as well and low key their toxicity makes me live a little.
I was trying to keep an open mind about this episode cause sometimes these types of episodes surprise you but honestly this was just as strange as I expected it to be from the promo last week. I guess I would have preferred if we had known for a longer time that Allegra was keeping an eye out for her cousin cause then this would be the fruit of her labor rather than something that came up randomly. I did like Allegra's power up though even if I expected it the minute that doctor starting saying stuff about their powers coming from hate. Like it's never hate that powers things in these types of situations but love! Speaking of love, it really does look like the show will be pushing Allegra and Chester together and that weird look they exchanged a few episodes back didn't mean nothing like I first thought. The irony of this show is how badly it writes it's love stories compared to something like Legends where literally any and every pairing works for me. It was also funny that Iris was literally not in this episode at all and Barry was barely in it either. I really guess all this focus on the two of them "trying" is going to lead right up to Bart's appearance huh?
Godspeed is back in the promo for next week as is the criminal that Frost has been flirting with all season making me laugh at how they really are going to be a thing.
Superman & Lois Season 1 Episode 11
Wow this week was totally sweet and heartbreaking all at once. I really enjoyed the look back on Clark's life and honestly the cuteness that was Lois and Clark getting to know one another and working the beat in Metropolis was low key everything this show could have been. Like don't get me wrong I have been enjoying the family stuff but I kinda wish we saw more of Lois and Clark before they became a family unit. I guess the major reason this show didn't go that way is cause there's been plenty of iterations in which we see the two in the early stages of life but none with this budget and writing prowess! I also kinda love that the thing that turns Superman is when Morgan threatens his family though I don't entirely like the fact that the first thing Lois does is call John Henry Irons. I wonder what she's going to say about how she knows and why she thinks it is but I bet that the focus is going to be on subduing Edge more than Superman. Meanwhile I also really loved that Kyle finally spoke to Lois about the way he's been treating her and apologized and I wonder if this will be the first step to him becoming a new man worthy of Lana...
Okay so I know shit was going down in the promo for 3 weeks from now but all I want to scream about is the fact that John freaking Diggle was in the promo!!!! I'm so excited cause this is the first we've seen of not only him since Arrow ended but also the first we've seen this show crossover with the other Arrowverse shows which is ironic since Supergirl exists in this world too. Like shouldn't Lois dial up Kara and be like yo this dude turned your other cousin?
This episode was fascinating and super annoying too cause it didn't actually give us any more answers about Lady Loki or what she wants or why she's doing what she's doing. What I do know is that she clearly doesn't like to be called Loki which is weird if she is a Loki variant cause I can't imagine a Loki who doesn't love himself or herself! I know the popular theory around is that she's actually Enchantress and honestly I could see that too cause we just don't know anything about anything. What we did learn was that everyone at the TVA are variants who have somehow got their minds hijacked by the Time Keepers or the TVA higher ups into believing that they were created to work for the TVA. The question is that if that's true why haven't they done the same thing to our Loki cause then they could use all his smarts without the mistrusting him part. Aside from all that it was really nice just to bask in all of Loki's glory. I loved seeing him drunk and also acting silly in a way that reminds of the Loki from Thor Ragnarok given that he's more mischievous than truly evil but the best moment was when he was reminiscing about his mom and how she taught him magic cause of course Tom Hiddleston excels at the tragic scenes. I do hope the show dials back the himbo antics a bit though cause Loki is still supposed to be smart unless it wants me to believe that he continuously gets one over on Thor and all of the Asgardians cause they're even dumber than him.
My Hero Academia Season 5 Episode 14
I still find it the cutest thing how much Hawks idolizes Endeavor cause it's not like he's a hero that everyone adores right off the bat! I was surprised at first to find out that Hawks was actually undercover with this so-called Liberation Army rather than with the League Of Villains but I wonder if it's actually that he's undercover in both. Like what if the League is using the Liberation Army in their evil plans so they sent Hawks there to test him? Or what if this is kinda a side-gig for him and the LoV knows that he's here on command from the Hero Commission but don't care as long as he helps them when they need to like with the Nobus. It does kinda suck that he sold out Blue Jeanist to League and I guess that explains why Katsuki was worried about him last week but also why there wasn't any news on him either. I did love that Endeavor picked up the clues that Hawks dropped so quickly and I like that they're seeding the next arc after this work study one already though I do wonder if this will be the end of all the Hawks stuff we see until that arc begins. Do we know how long this arc is going to be cause I will be heartbroken if the thing that everyone was gushing about being the thing that changes My Hero Academia and Deku forever is actually coming in season 6!
