Weeeeel, this went downhill. Not too badly, but it still wasn't great. I'm not too good at beginning paragraphs, so just see what I mean.
Let's talk about the characters. The main characters, were and are, fine, but the main problems are the minor "one episode" characters. For some reason, this show has a case of the "stereotyped stereotypes". That means that that character has been changed so often (e.g. A surprisingly non-menacing monster) that that "unique" personality becomes a new stereotype. It's actually becoming quite annoying.
I'm kind of getting used to the norm flaws (see episode 1 review for examples), but every episode still has its own, unique differences. And that means, unique criticisms. The annoyance for this episode was Mira. WHY IS SHE A MERMAID NOW?? They honestly can't keep adding random powers for random occasions without any reasoning. It's like if in a show someone was about to drown, and then just for the sake of convenience, they could suddenly breathe underwater....OH WAIT THAT HAPPENED.
But seriously, I did like this episode. The ending was a little out of nowhere, but it's fine, I'm used to it now. Oh, and this is just my opinion, but I was starting to get the vibe that this show was trying to be a more upbeat, fun version of "Over the Garden Wall". Notice how I said TRYING to be.
(P.S. I can't edit previous reviews, so I'll just mention here that after a rewatch of episode 2, I have decided to rate it a 7.4/10)
Rating: 5.8/10
