How can you get sick of it when it only happened 3-4 times in the entire saga? (Rowlet's debut episode, Bounsweet evolving, I think one time where Steenee was cooking, and now here) I was fearing that it was going to be a one time thing but thankfully it didn't and it's also not overused. Yes, they should create more interactions between the two but I don't think Steenee hates Rowlet or is being "an abusive petty anime girl". It's just slapstick humor which unfortunately is pretty gender biased (in the sense of hitting a man is funny but hitting a woman isn't.) One time where she hit him (the episode where she just evolved), she was unaware. I guess she doesn't want him to get too close to her. She mirrors her partner Mallow in which they are both cute supporting characters. I do agree that they should be developed more .^^
I know right?! I didn't even notice that they used to not get customers. I have noticed that they're consistently selling new items as well as getting their own food truck when at first, they were over the counter with a manager. I'm so happy to see how far they've progressed!!
They'll definitely be a capable food rival against Mallow as well as finally being somewhat able to hold their ground against Ash.
