Mean spirited flaws

Hermits and heroes, more like hermits and zeroes, from what I can see from it. There appears to be no respect from the characters in the story, not even Sir Blaze. But I can still see where this story is going.

The characters, mostly the dragon knights, were once again considered to be unlikable throughout the episode. Most unlikable of the episode were the knights and Sir Blaze himself. However, those weren't the only ones to be seen as unlikable. A few other characters such as Queen Griddle, the hermits, Cinder, and Clinker had a few unlikable moments here and there. At the beginning of the episode, when Flicker was showing his latest invention to Princess Flame, Cinder, and Clinker blew fire in his face when they should've either stepped back or blew in between the other two to avoid potential harm then make their announcement. When Queen Griddle found out about Sir Blaze leaving, she was being her usual whiny self by crying out loud. The Hermits are loud and rude at times, mostly when they hear singing, but not when they are helping Flame and Flicker win back Sir Blaze.

The way the knights were treating Sir Blaze was very mean-spirited, which was the reason Sir Blaze ran away from Castle Camelhot. Sir Blaze was the only knight who appreciated Flicker's invention, which the rest of them were displeased. The dragon knights gave Blaze a very heavy weapon that made him fall off his fake horse and into a well, causing the dragons to laugh. The knights were also displeased with Sir Blaze's use of the switch armory sword, since Sir Hotbreath destroyed what he made from it.

Even Sir Blaze was unlikable, but mostly in the first couple of minutes of the episode. The workout clothes that he wore were inappropriate and offensive, even for a kids cartoon. The song he sang for his team was very annoying and unmemorable because the lyrics were hard to understand, Blaze had a bad singing voice, and he sang very fast, which made it hard for the knights to catch up. This wasn't a song that many children would sing for a talent show nor talk about when it comes to the show's popularity. That's what annoyed me about his role in this episode.

Overall, this was the most mean-spirited episode that I have ever seen, especially in this cartoon. This would be a great concept for this cartoon, but unfortunately it took another wrong turn. This is yet another of the first season in the show that I instantly regret watching.
