Ranking the Season 5 episodes

*GoldMutant* · 04-09-2017, 04:59 PM

In tradition of the previous season ranking threads, I figured to open one up now that the first four episodes of season 5 have aired on television. Feel free to add onto your list as the season progresses and to give reason if you so choose.

My rankings so far are as follows:

1. Scroll of the Demodragon
2. The Forgotten Swordsman
3. End Times
4. Heart of Evil

The Forgotten Swordsman
End Times
Heart of Evil
Scroll of the Demodragon
Osoroshi no Tabi
When Worlds Collide

*GoldMutant* · 07-23-2017, 12:38 PM

Bumping the thread now that we got new episodes coming in.

Can't update my ranks personally as I need to watch the episodes. Have at it.

Aaronardo · 07-23-2017, 12:49 PM

1. Yojimbo

2. Scroll of the Demodragon

3. Everything else. The show's become horribly predictable when it gets bad, so a lot of my problems with these episodes are pretty much the same problems.

I'll give When Worlds Collide an honorable mention, though. It sucked, but it surprised me how it sucked. If you told me it was supposed to be some brilliant absurdist student film, I would've believed you.

*CyberCubed* · 07-23-2017, 02:52 PM

Worlds Collide sucked? I thought it was fairly good, with the only complaints being Michelangelo's electricity powers and needless death/return. But other than that everything else was fine.

I don't remember individual episode titles so for me:

1. 3-4th episode of the Shredder arc
2. 2nd episode of the Shredder arc
3. Usagi episode
4. Second part of Worlds Collide
5. First part of Worlds Collide
6. First episode, since it was just about the little shredder demon guys underground

*GoldMutant* · 09-17-2017, 08:52 AM

Considering the season's almost done due to the two DVD releases giving customers the Monster Arc and second crossover, I figured to bring this back. (If someone wants to PM me about them, at least the crossover, maybe the Monster Arc, I'd appreciate it)

So far, I haven't seen When Worlds Collide (just don't have intention right now) or Osoroshi no Tabi. The rest of the list goes like this, with 1 and 2, as well as 6 and 7, being interchangeable:

1. Yojimbo
2. Lone Rat and Cubs
3. The Forgotten Swordsman
4. Kagyakei! Kintaro
5. Scroll of the Demodragon
6. Heart of Evil
7. End Times

I find it hard to rank the episodes themselves so I'll rank the Arcs instead. I think the best to worst were:

1. Usagi Arc
2. Lone Rat and Cubs
3. Kavaxas Arc
4. 2nd Crossover
5. Series Finale
6. Monster Arc
7. When Worlds Collide

*Vicky82* · 09-23-2017, 03:18 PM

This is how I rank each arc. The Kavaxas arc is my favourite of season 5.

My Favourite episode of season 5, is The Forgotten Swordsman.

1. The Kavaxas Arc
2. The Usagi Arc
3. When Worlds Collide
4. Lone Rat and Cubs
5. The Monster Arc
6. The Crossover Arc
7. Future Arc

Kit31 · 09-23-2017, 03:34 PM

1. Usagi arc
2. Kavaxas arc
3. Monster arc
4. Crossover arc
5. Future arc
6. "Lone Rat and Cubs"
7. "When Worlds Collide"

I really enjoyed this season overall and if I had to pick a favorite episode, it would be probably "Heart of Evil".
