User blog:Timefreezer4/Season 3 Review

Hey guys. I got bored, so I'm writing my thoughts and opinions on Season 3 so far, episode by episode. Others have done this, but I have unpopular opinions, so yeah. Let's jump right into this!

Pros

 * Wonderful animation
 * Great analyses
 * MONKEY WITCH!
 * Fun, unexpected visits from Jeanne and Trish
 * The dialogue exchanges
 * That animation, man!
 * Fight felt complete, like all gear was considered and used
 * Raindrops was honestly an interesting tidbit and solid reasoning as to why Dante's faster
 * "Don't fuck with a witch"
 * Witch Time VS Quicksilver was just so much fun to watch
 * Just, the animation

Cons

 * Fight was probably wrong
 * Deadpool-healing Dante
 * Bayonetta's tassel-things and Jeanne's hair moved weirdly in the animation for me
 * Seriously, those tassels bug me
 * Weaker, yet Dante blocked a full-on punch from Madama Butterfly

Overall Thoughts
Alright, I fucking love this fight. At a solid 22 minutes, this is the longest and 2nd best episode of the season so far. The animation was beautiful, the analyses were on point and funny, and we even got a foursome with Jeanne and Trish! Even if it had some problems with Dante's level of power, particularly in his healing, the raindrops reasoning provided to me what felt like a reasonably faster Dante and the animation was way too good for me to care. I had a lot of fun with this episode, and it's one of my favorites to date.

Pros

 * Bowser got in a DB finally
 * Ganon got in a DB, which is cool
 * That tennis match, man
 * Animation was honestly decent
 * Ganon first entering the fight was kind of badass
 * The analyses were fun
 * Physically speaking, both felt accurate
 * Bowser's transformation into Giant was also badass
 * Bowser's stupidity was funny
 * Thumbnail is sexy as fuck
 * Fight was slow, which fit both characters

Cons

 * Fight was wronger than wrong
 * Holy weapons
 * Limitless magic
 * Dark trident pierced Bowser's eye, which shouldn't happen
 * Both lacked huge parts of their arsenals
 * Bowser didn't fight Triple D
 * Ganon didn't fight Dracula
 * One of my favorite characters was robbed of a victory that should've been his
 * One of my favorite characters, also one of the most iconic battles to ever be on the show, somehow got filler treatment
 * Animation could have been so much more, easily breaking 6 minutes
 * No "SHOWTIME!"

Overall Thoughts
Unlike most people, I not only like this fight, but I really like it. A lot. Though the animation was super disappointing and the episode got unjust treatment as filler, the animation wasn't terrible and it had many enjoyable moments. The tennis match was fun, Bowser's moments of "oh shit" was funny, and seeing Bowser turn giant was honestly a badass moment for me. Even if Bowser, one of the 3 characters that ties for my all time favorite in fiction, got a fight that was both filler and had him wrongly killed, it was still cool to see him in at all. Sure, it's still my second least favorite 2D fight of the season, but I still really enjoyed this episode and have even rewatched it from time to time. Hell, I even prefer it over some 3D fights coming up.
