Now the next part I wanna bring up is,that this one Cool moment right here could have saved this episode.....BUT NOPE! sorry zalure,I'm gonna have to also dethrone this episode too and give it a low score,because this one cool moment also got RUined.

Because the one moment I actually did like in this reboot's episode,that Pai and Tart come up with a brilliant plan to send a multiple army of Chimeras to attack the Mew Cafe with Zakuro,Pudding,Lettuce and RYou and Keiichiro defending it,and this one moment right here could have been this episode's saving gace if not for too major problems here........First Mint.....Again,since when Was mint ever this close to her brother seiji,even going as far as to put her brother's Projects over her Own Friends and Teammate??? instead of Helping the other mew mews back at the cafe,she instead helps Seiji with another with one of his projects,Well....I guess it was sort of for a good cause to unpollute the air pollution and all,that i can understand,But mint,your owns friends are in danger defending themselves against over 10 chimeras,and many lives at the cafe are at stake for goodness sakes,couldn't that have waited untile later????

and the 2nd problem as usial is Ichigo herself,being reduced to pathetically weak to the sidelines.

and So with this Week's newest episode,I'm assauming that this Week's Tokyo Mew Mew New is the Reboot's Version of "KIshuu goes apeshit and Kidnaps Ichigo" but the Context is ALL Wrong,every single bit of it.

The basic story structure of Kishuu going apeshit trying desperatly to win Ichigo's Affections for him is the same,but the Context structure is all wrong,which there are many differences. in the Original,his apeshit Moment started kicking into overdrive which was the ski trip episode in ep 39,in that version,Originally Kishuu kidnapped Ichigo,and sumbcummeed her into a dark dream dimension and replaced the real Ichigo with a Clone to send to the real World.

But here in the reboot,Kishuu just kidnaps Ichigo to take her on top of the school building in a Thunder storm they created,which here,Kishuu tries to torment Ichigo with Spider Chimeras,and this right here proves another example on how this reboot continues to shove Ichigo into the back burner,but i'll get to that in a moment,because theres something else I wanna bring up as well.

I remember that Geico commercial.XD

Motivational speaker my ass,I guess this is one time,Pinnochio didn't listen to blue fairy's advice or didn't allow Jiminey Cricket to let his " conscience be his guide" .lol

to be fair though,in the Anime Version of Pinnochio produced by Tatsunoko Productions (Mokku of the Oak Tree),that version of Pinnocho made alot of WTF Selfish Decisions,even going as far as to steal a Money tree from a man eating Demon Plant,and in one episode.......he literally tried to kill a boy and take his heart....Just to fullfill his selfish wish to be human! @[email protected] pretty much contridicts himself zalure.lol

anyways,i'll get back to you,after i see this week's TOkyo Mew Mew new!

than arrogent jerkass Battamonda decides to bring to life a Stuff/Toy Onigashima to life as this Week's Ranborg monster of the Week and defeat it,and heres the kicker twist to this episode,which it so it seems,that thanks to Yoyo's recent research,he Cures learn they can use the Mirror Pad to collect Kira Kira Energy from purified Ranborgs to help her create medicine for the King and Queen of Sky Land.

Well......thats interesting:P

but this week's Epilouge though! Sooooooo.........They decided to have Cure Wing do this week's 20th Anniversary epilouge instead of Cure Heart form Doki Doki!??????????? What????? I thought they were only gonna just do the Pink Precure Leaders in Backwards order???? ehhhhhhh.

anyways,a rather interesting Episode,which is basically Filler Mixed with Canon Story Keyplots:P

Again,I'm unfamiliar with th original Momotaro story,but they're retelling version of it was quite interesting.imo,maybe I'll understand it more,once I play the Hudson Soft Momotaro games???

also,heres something else this episode reminded me of too Zalure,the Cures than go off to a Demon Island called "
Onigashima", to face off against a Gate Demon,which seems to also be based on real life japanese folklore tales,which infact,that sequence with the cures fighting against that Red Oni Demon Gate reminds me of that Demon Island Stage from Pocky and Rocky 2.lol

and not to mention,I actually recall a Japanese Text Adventure Famicom game called Shin Onigashima,which involved a Shrine maiden and a Cave boy fighting off a red ONigashima gate demon,which I learned about these characters from they're cameo appearance as Information Trophey's in Smash Bros Melee!

Anyways,Sora seems to get over her head a little bit as she takes the story a little too seriously,as the story they're playing out constantly reminds the cures of they're "Almost ill-fated/Disaster Last Defeat" at the hands of Battamonda from last week's episode,which ends up upsetting ellie more,which Ageha comforts her,and the others remind sora not to let the burden get her down,as they use life lessons from that story to streghthen they're own Bond!

which the cures decide to put on a Puppet show play for Ellie chan,telling Her a version of the Japanese Folklore Children's Novel story "Momotaro",the peach samurai Warrior!

Ok,funny enough,i'm not too all familiar with the Original Japanese folklore Children's Novel "Momotaro" nor have I read the novel Myself,but funny enough,the only Momotaro I seem to recall and familiar with are those Turbo Grafx 16 " Momotaro Densetsu" Games From Hudson Soft (YES! That hudson soft,the same guys that made those Bomberman and Galaxy Fraulein Yuna games.lol) which I never got around to playing those gems,but from what I've looked up,those games seem to also be based on the classic childrens japanese folklore hero:

https://momotaro.fandom.com/wiki/Momotaro_Densetsu

anyways,back to the episode,and so Sora,Mashiro,Tsubasa and Ageha retell the story of Momotaro with a puppet show and also use they're imaginations to act out as the characters in Momotaru (Kind of reminds me of those imagination sequences from an episode of Muppet babies.lol)

yeah.XD I never got the mystery behind that weird Poke-Live streamer named Dot,which Riko and roy constantly watch Live stream videos of her in a Nidoqueen costume,but something tells me that theres more to This Dot girl than meets the eye.lol

but who knows,maybe we'll get more mystery info revealed about her in future episodes prehaps????

Oh yes,I've played those Animaniacs Games from Konami back in the day,had both the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis versions.lol

anyways,onto this week's Hirogaru Sky Precure,and this is quite an interesting One I gotta talk about,picking up where Last week's Episode left off,Ellie-Chan is still traumatized over the lost of her parents under a dark sleeping Curse/Coma,and so it's up to the Hirogaru Sky team to restore her smile Again!

But Ageha actually came up with a neat idea for this episode to restore Ellie chan's smile!:P

Friede decides to have Riko and rOy Spar with each other in a Pokemon Match,now i'll give this episode a few pointers,that this does actually feel like a legit Pokemon Sparring/Training match compared to any nonsense we've seen in the previous Seasons for the past 20 + Years. this one moment right here could have worked if if wasn't so halfass the way they did it here.

However,of course as I was expecting,Riko easially pwds the Ever living crap out of Roy in this one little sparring match (probully the only redeeming moment i did like from this episode.lol) so of course I was expecting Riko to Own Roy big time,since he has no experiance in Pokemon Training.

but hey! I'll at least give him this though Zalure!.imo.I would rather have ROy lose Practice matches against Riko than see Tr.ASH ketchum constantly losing Pokemon Leauges and Gym battles every season!

but other than that,I beleive this is our first Truely Bad episode in Pokemon Horizons Riko,which I even find that weird,since this season overall has had an amazing start,and not to mention,the Pokemon Anime in general has become Watchable again because of Riko. Well,lets see what future episodes hold for Riko eh?

sorry friede,but you flat out fail as a basic Pokemon Professor,especially the basic Rules of Pokemon battles,and you especially don't compare to Gen 5: Black and White's Professor Juniper!

and so Riko and Roy decide to go along with this dumbass plan of his and spar with his Captain Pikachu,which of course,his Captain Pikachu is cocky and arrogent and constantly spams that Naruto Shadow Clone/Evasion Technique of his,which despite Riko figuring it out quickly that Captain Pikachu has been zig zagging backwards,they still couldn't land a hit,and both Sprigatto and Fuecoco were too tired and the judge calls it a "Faint" despite that Captain Pikachu never actually hitted them,uhhhhhh Excuse me????

if I recall correctly,last time I checked,a Pokemon falling into a "Sleep" Status,does not count as an "HP Faint",which this is the same BS they pulled on Ash's Squirtle from Season 1's Kanto/Indigo Leauge,when he faced off with Richie!

anyways,moving on,after that dumbass plan fails,than Friede comes up with another dumb plan!

basically this week,I can say for one thing Zalure,this one Episode of Pokemon Horizons along actually feels like a real Legit Pokemon Training session Episode for Riko and Roy,unlike whatever the Hell that excuse of a gag comedy series from Ash's run did for the last 20 Years,at this point,I don't even consider the Ash Ketchum series a legit Pokemon series!

anyways,onto the episode itself,Riko and Roy decide they need to get stronger to prepare themselves for anymore incoming invasion attacks from Team Explorers,as these guys have gotten more dangerous and more serious than ever to get riko's pendant,and so Dumbass Gen 9's Proffessor Oak "Friede" comes up with a stupid plan by letting Riko and Roy spar with his Overpowered Captain Pikachu......Uh Yeah.....his so called Training Method????

"If you two can land at least one hit on my Captain Pikachu,than you guys are consider Winners"

Ok,let me get this straight,so you want Riko and Roy to just land a single hit on your overpowered Pikachu rather than depleating all his HP all the way down!

NO! just no Friede,thats not how Pokemon training Works (Especially in the games),it takes more than just landing a simple hit an overpowered Pokemon to win a Pokemon Match/Battle!

But yep! Kiyapiko is Better,I was not a fan at all of that awful Botched official Localization of Schbibinman 2 back in the day,where they renamed her "Sonya" I mean,I understand it was the 90's back than,where proper localizations were rare back than......but still.XD

anyways,onto this Week's Wild Wet Weekend of Birdie Wing Season 2,and What I mean by this is,prepare to get out your Wellie Rainboots and Umbrellas for this episode Zalure,because Aoi's Next golf Match is gonna be quite one hell of a Rain Storm!!

now getting onto the episode itself,Aoi faces off against her next opponent Reika Shikishima in the next round of the women's Open Golf Tournement,and things aren't looking up for Aoi so far in the First Quarter,as Reika keeps constantly PWDING Aoi with Straight Birdie sinks up ahead 5 strokes,which things look bad for Aoi on her End..........Untile Amane Shinjo has already forseighted an idea she already came up with prior to the start of this match!

Wasn't the Doc Brown Wannabe Scientist always a Douchbag throughout the entire franchise in general?.XD. he was even more of a Dick in Schbibinman Zero for the Super Famicom,not telling Azuki important information untile the last min.XD

anyways,thats pretty awsome that the official release of Schbibinman/Shockman 1 has some pretty cool concept art of Kiyapiko.lol
