See, THIS is a good Project Mew episode. A rewatch is essential since there’s a lot of talking, but even then, this episode was much better. Goh handled this one basically by himself instead of relying on Ash, with the exception of the end, but I’m pretty sure the hunters weren’t supposed to be there.
We got to see Cinderace again too. Seeing this guy come back nowadays is like your favorite wrestler coming out of retirement; it’s just for one last match before they disappear again only to pop up randomly again and people freak out.
And hey, our favorite dragon showed up again too!
Now we’ve had 2 chances in a row of Grookey finally battling only to be interrupted. They need to find a new shoulder pet for Goh so Grookey can do something already. I think everyone’s sick of them being a parrot.
Asahi has the other Urshifu form, but the DLC was last year, so I stopped caring. If they’re ever gonna talk about these two elephants in the room, it’s probably gonna be way down the line. It takes a while to get a trial mission episode alone, to find out more about Asahi and Tsururugi and where they got their Urshifu will take eons. Which is honestly the only downside to this episode; waiting for the next one. But hopefully that one continues the upward trend and maybe we’ll get a solo Goh episode where Grookey acTuallY FREaking DOES SOMETHING-!
