OUR REVIEW:
A story that juggles multiple storylines that when it interesects, doesn't feel as cohesive as it needs to be, it still entertains thanks to the unlikely pairing of Moss Man and Melaktha (who is as grouchy as ever.) The actual Ancient Mirror of Avathar deserved some extra screen time, though... (7/10)

Tomorrow’s Episode is: “The Games”
Wasn’t this supposed to be posted yesterday? I know it’s hard making all of these articles and getting them out on time.
That’s what I was thinking. I’m sure that’s what it is. It must be hard to watch an episode every day and do all the stuff that comes with it plus all this other stuff. Hopefully today’s will come earlier.

Yeah, really sorry about that. The last thing I wanted was to push these towards midnight especially for people who live in Europe but unfortunately I was dealing with website issues bringing this site down intermittently plus some bad personal issues. It was a struggle but we made it. 😊
I like this episode, but it is a little light on the action. I’m glad we get a showcase episode for Mossman and a good sized role for Two-Bad. Wish we got more like this but still glad we got them at the end.
We’ve talked about this a lot but I’m also sad to see how much the animation keeps improving knowing we’re near the end. I love the shot of He-Man tying the rope around his waist in the rain before he dives in the water, beautifully animated.
Does anyone know what on the titular mirror is based? like is it based off a piece of art or anyone in real life like idk a show crew member?
