EPISODE REVIEWS
The new character had a really strong presence, and I liked how cold and serious he felt right away. It gave the episode a darker tone and made the story feel like it was getting more serious. I also liked how it added more weight to everything that had been happening so far. This was a solid episode and made me more interested in what comes next.
This epi was at high stakes, and the tension was definitely high. Seeing Ken in that situation was heartbreaking and painful to watch, but the rare sight of him and Chun Li was wonderful to watch. Another set of signature characters was introduced, and the plot was becoming interesting as that cliffhanger literally left hanging.
I don't understand why this Shadow guy's name keeps changing. He's using both the same names as Vega, the creep guy. I am confusion. But never mind that, and never mind his fight with Ken either. The episode just got worse and worse and Chun Li is once again princess in distress. They straight up did her dirty with that panty shot that was totally unnecessary. But in a way, it sort of works cause the big Balrog dude is kinda disgusting so you just end up hating him more.
