And then it turns out he was actually trying to get out of the way. I loved this bit where Lance is about to get his butt whooped three Galra fighters, and then the yellow lion bursts out of the ground and just belly flops them. Hahaha! Hunk is hilarious when it comes to jokes, he’s got some real gems. Like when there’s this big build up, and then boom! Gaze upon the awesomeness… I dunno, the ones that are really well timed always give me shivers. They just add that little bit of something that makes things that are already pretty out there, seem even cooler.

There are some really nice slow motion shots in this show. Turns out its the same as the growl the Monster Book of Monsters makes in the third Harry Potter film. The first time I saw this sloth thing, I could’ve sworn I heard the sound it makes somewhere before. I really want to see a villain who’s super happy and optimistic and loves orange juice and unicorns and is afraid of the dark. Dude, they seem evil from our perspective, but from their point of view, the heroes are the bad guys. They all have a thing for dark colours and moody lighting. This is a perfect example of a really funny thing the majority of cartoon villains do. These guys just go with it, but I’d probably be a bit more like ‘No thanks, stranger danger.’ I mean, think about it, you’re in school, then you meet a couple of other random people and find some giant robot lion. So far, I’m finding the way they just suddenly decided that they’re all a team, a but unrealistic. I laughed so hard when that sassy space princess told Lance that his ears were hideous. Usually, I don’t make my posts this long, but the first episode of this show goes for like, an hour, sooo yeah. Hey there, humans! Just gonna warn you all before I start ranting, this is a toon chomp, not a toon bite.
