Official Episode Discussion: S2 #7 "Slash and Destroy"

Keroscene · 11-30-2013, 04:14 PM

This was the only episode I haven't loved this season. Leo's subplot was nice, but the main story was thin and totally predictable. And it doesn't count as "character development" for Raph because let's face it, Raph doesn't develop. He seems ok most of the time and then occasionally he flares up and it's always over the same dumb stuff. Which is why it's more fun when Raph doesn't flare up.

So anyway, yeah, I was hoping this episode would surprise me somehow but it became the standard Raph emo-whiny-stomping-around-for-no-reason-oh-no-wait-I-love-my-brothers-really stuff. There were no surprises at all.
