about ren's site i mean there's so much to dive deep into and i'm so excited to hear you
all starts your pros your cons and of course your thoughts and theories of what you hope to see in
the weeks ahead but before we dive into my recap just my initial thoughts listen man i i sound
like a broken record at this point but i truly am in love with this new season this episode to me
is just continuing the tr show i don't know and i have to look it up to verify this but i don't know
if it's the same writers from last season and not discounting last year's you know you know it was a
great season but i feel like the writing has just been so much stronger and just more just engaging
and more in-depth and just everyone's bringing their a game secondary characters supporting
characters our main characters obviously the new characters being introduced i'm just the the
the writing's just clicking on all cylinders and again you guys i don't know if you've been paying
attention to in the last few weeks we haven't gotten any action and that's what really sold me
on this show last year was like yeah the story is cool but the choreography is incredible the blood
the guts of us killing everyone that was like my main draw of last year and again really good story
but i was so invested in the action i love the action this season but we've been focusing more
on the character development more of the story and that's what's been so impressive with me with this
season especially in this episode and especially the last three episodes the writing has been
spectacular but let's get into it again let me know your thoughts of the comments
um have you missed the action we get some action in this episode which will break down but have you
missed the action or are you okay with how this show has really been shaping up the characters
in development and setting up this major war let me know your thoughts on that in the comments but
let's break down this episode about unicorns as we open up with paris having her visions regarding
betrayal and blood and she tells hanawa that her parents who was already left to go says peace
treaty she should try to prevent them from this portrayal happening so she makes her way onto her
horse which she's never written written before which just shows you again hannah was such a
badass and such a warrior uh within her own right but we see charlotte's like i need to go with you
she's like i don't have time i'll be safe so she's on this quest to stop her parents for hopefully
being portrayed again i love hanoi and then paris and these visions are so cool but meanwhile we
see rin having a conversation with ido and she's going to be representing him at this peace treaty
because he's not going to be going and she's not going to be going as a general but she just got
a promotion as the captain which to me this scene and and throughout this season so far
win which will be inevitably when edo finds out about the truth about her being responsible for
babavas escaping obviously i don't want escaping that's going to be such a powerful scene because
he you can tell you don't know number one he cares for his people but he really cares for
ren especially i think he mentions in this episode that he found her at a young age so
he really not only respects her but he cares for her he might look at her as an actual daughter so
when he learns about that betrayal that's going to be something i'm looking forward to seeing
but i'm loving that development that we're getting between those two characters and we haven't really
you know i love how the show has sprinkled in ido in the season you know he's had you know obviously
cut off the head of jeremiah he's a very pivotal character but he's he's popping in and out and
normally i would be frustrated by that because i'm i'm a big fan of david but i like how the
way the show is using him so far i imagine once him and baba boss have that second round we're
going to get more of that action but i i mean i've really enjoyed the the usage of ido so far
and also too i'd imagine his schedule is a little bit he's a busy man he's a guardian you know he's
you know in all these big movies he's in dunes so i imagine his schedule was probably hard to work
around but i'm enjoying his presence in the show but on to this journey i mentioned how the new
characters have really been impressing me you know charlotte and the toads of the world as well as
harlan now harlan was supposed to hate him you know i mentioned it many many weeks ago
how i always compare this show to kind of the similarities to game of thrones and him reminding
me a little bit of littlefinger but what i like about what they're doing with harlan they give
us these moments where he's obviously conniving deceptic you know making these plans behind people
back but he also has like these little vulnerable moments and this is one of them as he's talking to
magura about how he's misses his brother you know he jokes around about it he's going to definitely
find his you know his death but he was he's sad in this moment he mentions to mangra you're literally
the only family that i have left now knowing harlan so far and that's obviously maybe a way
for him to get closer to magura to get on his side and for them to have this type of which i think
the show might go that direction she might not fall in love with harlan but i think she's slowly
but surely caring for him more i don't know if that's intentional on harlan's part or if he's is
truly being vulnerable in this moment but that's the thing i love about harlan you don't know
his true intentions but i love that about the character but moving on to uh the training of
anakin skywalker with kofun and toad who is you know he's teaching him how to be more in tune with
his uh his senses and i say anakin skywalker because literally he's being seduced by the
dark side like this is literally anakin and you know kofun is like the prequels with the phantom
menace's young kid who really doesn't do anything it really doesn't want to cause any harm but as he
gets closer to the emperor he becomes as we know darth vader and i'm telling you all kofun will be
the darth vader of this season especially with him being seduced literally by the emperor or in this
case queen kane that we'll talk about a little bit later but hannibal makes her way to warning
her parents and they're just kind of like well you know paris has been wrong before but we're going
to be on our p's and q's if her vision comes to be true which it does back to speaking of the emperor
aka queen kane she continues quartering her young nephew as she wants to take a ride on his horse
literally and figuratively a little bit later in the episode now i believe this might be the first
time we've ever heard queen kane like we've seen her smile like evilly smiling but she was like
i don't know let me know in the comments genuinely happy in this moment with kofun or
is it all a part of her scheme that she's just faking this happiness she's faking this
smiles and laughter again very similar to harlan we know they're so deceptive we know they have
their portrayal that we know they have their game but is it a genuine moment i don't think it is but
let me know your thoughts on that in the comments but speaking of again the writing of the show
we get the peace treaty and this is such a great moment seeing the trivancians talking to harlan
and magra and this the back and forth harlan gets upset because one of the representatives from the
triventian army comments on cutting off the head of his brothers and like detailing every little
thing about her killing him and he obviously gets upset punches her and all that which
i don't know if it was me i'm just thinking about harlan again his kind of in-betweenness is he a
good guy bad guy somewhere in between which i think he is but something inside of me was like
did harlan have anything to do with his brother's death to make it seem like it was all a part
of you know obviously his scheming and setting this war uh you know to get the war very little
finger-ish i don't know let me know if you all think that harlan might have had something to do
with his brother's death and just he's secretly working with queen kane let me know your thoughts
on that in the comments but moving on we see paris having a conversation with toad regarding
this dark path that kofun is going on again a very kind of quad jin and obi-wan kenobi talking about
anakin skywalker and she just wants you know she mentions the toe that i just want you to defend
him and you're a good man you're an honest man so i think that that the toad and kofun
again going back to my anakin skywalker thing toe kofun anakin skywalker uh versus obi-wan kenobi
who has the higher ground i can see that fight happening a little bit later let me
know if that's something you all would like to see which i think toad would win but we'll see
with kofun his training and his uh dark emperor on his side but cutting back to harlan again not only
does he get the vulnerable moments but he gets some funny moments as he keeps calling babavas
booboo which this shows us them setting up this secret meeting uh as well as magura taking charge
as a queen marco's really stepping up this season i'm really enjoying her kind of growth in her
character which brings us to speaking of growth we see rin who has been given the task by edo to
do her own version of betrayal with that knife being in the blood but she or in the bread but
she has her meeting with hanawa which at first they're not really like super lovey-dovey but they
have this conversation and they agree to never hurt one another but by the end of this episode
uh that that that promise has been broken as i'm i'm thinking at this point that rin and hanawa are
gonna have to go toe-to-toe and they're gonna have to to fight to the death and you know especially
after what happens in this episode but we see the secret meeting get taken place where magra informs
the trivantian uh representatives that she's to be taking queenship very soon and that they have
this agreement in place they're going to apologize and they're going to have this thing uh set up but
it's it's babavas he's obviously he's there they know he's there but bob is looking at magra and go
back to that conversation he had with charlotte last week in regards to do you trust her is she
the same person i think bob was looking at manga at the point being like i don't know who that is
anymore seeing her like being she's not conniving or whatnot but just seeing her just kind of go
this different rather he's never seen this royalty making deals behind people's backs so i think that
that's something to look look into in regards to their relationship moving forward but more of
queen kane aka the emperor and anakin skywalker and kofun as they are taking this forbidding drug
they're feeding the drug to each other and i'm thinking to myself i don't know which one i feel
more comfortable with do i feel uncomfortable with them feeding drugs to each other or what
we got last week and it gets worse so this week definitely wins the uncomfortability contest
because we see them taking the drugs and then they do the deed they actually and i mentioned
it what three weeks ago in my review that she's gonna end up having sex with this her nephew and
she's gonna get pregnant by him and i think the seeds literally have been planted in this
episode as we see them the show doesn't fear away from i know a lot of people i was uncomfortable i
know a lot of you all were comfortable last week but i was super uncomfortable this week as they
literally do the deed and they show us everything and uh yeah that sighted baby is on its way soon
but don't get me wrong when it comes to the the trust that harlan i don't know if i can trust him
or not but he has he talks about why he's so like connected to the german teams he's done like these
secret dealings over the years and i don't know if that's true or not but again we see him going
back to bobo or booboo and he's like he has to sleep with [ __ ] at least in the same tent just
to make the appearances make it seem like they're married again i love that harlan character i hate
him but he's just such a fascinating character but as we see the treaty is completed you know
everyone says their apologies the trumantians uh do have one more thing to add to this agreeance
the queen and her sighted whole deal going on that has to stop immediately but again
that baby's coming sooner rather than later uh but paris and toad they have uh like i have mentioned
that the kofun going down the dark path and trying to help him not go on a dark path which again i'm
telling you all that kofun told might be a fight uh in future episodes but we see kane and kofun
have another quieter moment and they agree to never lie to each other no matter how
dark or how upsetting the truth may be uh which which leads us to hanawa and wren having their
moment about you know just sharing their truths and their loves and they both we're seeing both of
these young kids or these you know baba boss and margaret's kids having this kind of forbidden love
for obviously wren on edo's side and obviously queen kane and colfu so it's so interesting to
see this dynamic between the the younglins and the paths they're going on on this forbidden love
i'm loving the the character and the paths and the storylines they have both of those characters
going through so far and they're both going to get their heart broken um or at least one of
them well but it is uh it's finally time to get a little bit of action it wasn't ton of action uh
but it was still some badass action as we know to come with this uh this show as we see queen kane
has sent assassins to kill the higher ups in the triumvirations and we see babavas being the ninja
aka daredevil as he is as he's sensing where those assassins are he ultimately takes out one of them
but unfortunately it's too late the one assassin is able to kill all of the maine trivancians which
brings ren into seeing the death of her leaders which makes her think that hanawa had something
to do with it she was distracting her because obviously she has sights so she could have
saw that warn them but now this path of their love is on the path of destruction because hanawa is
she thinks she's responsible for the death so again i just love how they're just switching the
narrative i think that they were gonna rain was gonna betray edo and be on babavasan and hanawasai
but not after this episode i love how they switched that up on us really good writing there
but again we find out that queen kane was all behind this the whole time speaking of queen kane
again she is just continuously just just putting kofun in this web of lies as she's like oh i don't
feel safe she comes and lies in his bed and she wants and what she's doing so smartly is she's
making kofun make it seem like oh i'm protecting the queen she she trusts me you know he's she's
putting all this confidence in him only to inevitably break him down and manipulate him she's
queen kane is uh cersei like i said she's she's doing her thing she is playing her games and he
is playing right into it but you know we in the episode with her just eating her chicken monger
is obviously upset because this whole thing she spent all this time developing this agreeance
with the trivantains just to have it being torn down right in front of her she throws her food on
the floor and we see queen kane just still eating that chicken and we rap with ido learning of the
news of everything that just went down learning of the news that wren blames all this on babavas
which obviously is going to piss off edo which is going to make that fight even more intense
and he mentions you know the the triangle is going to want to know why did you survive this
is the second time that there's been some type of betrayal why should i trust you she tells him
her big secret that she can see and he was just like shocked like that was like a very genuine
moment when edo finds out that the girl that he's been caring for that he respects that he loves
has been cited i don't know i think he's gonna take that as good news and obviously she's gonna
probably you know don't don't forget that he has control of all the german royals kids she's gonna
probably be the leader of the sighted army once that inevitably happens but he was so
shocked and boom goes the dynamite what an incredible episode the lies the portrayals
can you trust this person the anakin skywalker seducing the dark side and queen kane um
the the betrayal queen kane i mean this was just another fantastic episode and
i'm really i'm i'm in love with this season so far and i love this episode and we have
three of them things left and as we get closer and closer to that war expect more and more
betrayals from all of the different sides again magra you know harlan babavas losing his wife
i mean this show is just clicking on all cylinders but hey that's just my thoughts i want to know
