Thundercats hoooooooo!

[RobbyBevard]

The flashback is quite touching! But why are they called orphans? Their more of runaways than orphans,and interesting that they have siblings.

Well, their home city *did* get overrun and many of the inhabitants slaughtered...

Really? I thought only the main city was attacked? If not I must've missed where the farm was attacked or they said it was attacked. I do have a short term memory...

[RobbyBevard]

The general impression I got was all the cats in the area got screwed over, since they made no attempt to help out any survivors. And the city could be seen from their farm, so...

[Ubiq]

I mean, Panthro and Cheetara were putting an emphasis on surviving on your own, doing whatever it takes.....and they end up just being lead to food? Hm. Well, I did like the flashback though......

The Thunderkittens were already quite capable of taking care of themselves though and were only lead to the food because of that ability.

Panthro and Cheetara were attempting to teach them survival skills based entirely on the notion that they hadn't really endured true hardship or had to make a really difficult choice in their lives simply because they were children. There wasn't a lesson learned at the end of the episode because the whole thing was about teaching young cats old tricks.

I suppose that's a much better way of looking at it. Touché.

Awww yeaaah.

Spoiler:

I really hope this is not a long a running theme with Lion-O not getting an tail lmao. He'll be insuffurable if he's rejected again too often.

[RobbyBevard]

Decent ep. Not great, but decent.

Spoiler:

Adressed the question I had of "what happened to the city they left behind". Pumyraa was pretty cool, much more so than in the old show where she was just sort of "extra Cheetarah"... and even the show wrote her out eventually. The kittens subplot seemed extra pointless, but that's how its going to go.

And hey, Plundar! Now a city rather than a planet, just likeThundera. Works for me.
I'm expecting a ton of cameos next week though. I'd expect Bangali and perhaps Lynxo next episode.

Spoiler:

This episode cracked me up. Dogs running "pit fighting" a kelpto raccoon. I do like the Doberman guy though. And he sorta has a point about the cat loyalty issue lol. Ahhh animal stereotypes, love it.

Gotta say though. I like Pumyraa in this. She seems to have a personaility I can get behind and her weapon is cool. Cheetara is a tad too bland for my linking. I hadn't thought anyone survived Thundara falling aside from the main cast. That does seem like kinda a bad move in a way. I don't recall them checking for survivors. They seemed to have just taken off.

Yeah...Kit and Kat's side plot wasn't interesting. I don't know if that's better or worse than not having them appear at all in the episode.

Also...lmao off at the dramatic eyebrow twitching.

[Conekiller]

Thunderkittens subplot took way too much of the screen time >_> Tho I did enjoy the Sly Cooper reference with Tookitt and the cane.

I hope Pumyra maintains a presence on the show and doesn't just "stay behind" after they liberate the Thundarians from the Plundarr mines.

[MetaMario]

Spoiler:

Pretty much agree with you guys, what with Pumyra being likeable and the sub-plot with Kat and Kit being....pointless. But is me, or was the art really wonky this episode?

I am happy I was not the only one to think that was a Sly Cooper reference. :D

Spoiler:

Well good news to all that hated the Thunderkittens last episode...they didn't even show in this one~

Pretty good one if I do say so myself. Nice to be introduced to the rats and glad to see that the cats were at least alive after the invasion on Thundera.

Only gripe, and it's a small one is the obvious ominous ending that last weeks and this episode ended on...for once can't we just revel in victory? No, something else has too rear it's ugly head and say hello.

[RobbyBevard]

Well, the show only has like 5 episodes left, it only makes sense if its a big ongoing set of cliffhangers leading to the finale from here.

Avatar pulled the same trick.

Decent episode, but... man, that multi-month hiatus just really killed all the show's momentum for me. Its just harder to get excited about or into than it was.

Spoiler:

Episode could have been better if it didn't have so much cheesy flirting. Pumyraa already hitting on Lion-O was kinda sudden I feel. Even though she forgave him last episode...Maybe everyone is just desperate lol. I kinda like that Pumyraa isn't very level headed, despite that meaning that it puts them in danger. At least she isn't a Cheetara clone.

I would so wield the sword of Plundar lol. Looks so awesome. Other than that, not a bad episode. Although I do wonder what they do with the Thunder Kittens when they go on long trips.

Spoiler:

I thought it was a little weird for Pumryaa to be flirting too, but since it was it was brief it wasn't too bad. Although it was a different story with Tygra and Cheetara, lol......he seemed like a smooth playa when he was looking for the sword with her with his reassuring dialogue.

Rat overlord was pretty villainous.....liked how his underling defied him to help Lion-O.

And how much will you guys bet the next episode will focus more on Kit and Kat, since they were absent this ep?

Spoiler:

I would guess not much. Unless they ride in with the tank since we got that cliffhanger.

Spoiler:

Next episode, I can see the battle turning bad and Tigra being forced to weild the sword of plundarr.
