Confusing titles with unpleasant stories

These were two strange situations that the dragon knights face in their country and in China. But there were more mean moments and disturbing content to see compared to the previous episode. Even if there were some good aspects involved in both segments, they were all minor.

In the first segment, Chain Mail Letter, Sir Loungelot had faced a lot of bad luck from the chain mail letter that Flicker received, which led Loungelot to develop a bad hiccup problem, similar to Sir Hotbreath's burping habits from season one. Sir Loungelot burping in front of Flicker was uncalled-for, since Flicker would have stepped aside when the other burped then said, "Excuse me". At one point, Sir Loungelot had to demonstrate an evil laugh to get a job, which by hearing it, it would have shown how much of a villain he would be if he were one. This story shows how unlikable Sir Loungelot was as a dragon knight, even as a character of this show. Now that I think about it, I would rather see Sir Loungelot as a Disney villain than a non-Disney protagonist, if it were possible.

In the second segment, You Dim Sum, You Lose Some, there were a lot more disadvantages coming from Sir Loungelot, and it was more than a bad habit. When Loungelot came across any food throughout the episode, he ate like Cookie Monster. Many insults were coming from the dragon and Chinese local men, especially when the emperor threatened to make Loungelot into a soup if he failed to stop the New Year Dragon. While Loungelot tried to stop the New Year Dragon, he was acting like a coward since he was smaller than the other dragon. This story was quite a New Year mess, even for Sir Loungelot.

Overall, I knew that there was going to be bad treatment for one of the other main characters of the show. I also knew that I was going to see more unlikable aspects from Sir Loungelot since I find him to be one of the worst protagonists in a 90s cartoon, besides The Avenger Penguins and the cartoon duo, Shnookums and Meat. Of course, I saw this one coming. I can definitely imagine more stories of Sir Loungelot, while learning more about his character in the future.
