Oh, so that's the Skinner lead they found for why they went to where Elaina was from.

LMAO Axel just goes right in 🤣

"Better tell me everything you know, or you're gonna drown" LOL sinks the remains of their helicopter anyway and leaves them for the police rescue crew.

Wants to keep going after them on the drone. Axel is crazy! Crazy like Spike and Dandy! 🤣

LOL there was that cop again walking by Axel and not noticing him 🤣

Oh okay the school setting in particular, gotcha. Yeah, since the promos would have focused on the stuff in the first two eps before the school it did give a tease early on of a more "next-level shonen" vibe. I do think it's still a little "edgier" thanks to those first couple of episodes and the more modern touches of the setting but yeah, it's never gotten back to as dark as that once they get to the school. Yeah, I still expect some silliness, but hopefully it'll re-find it's footing once season 2 gets going, since there were some cool bits to season 1 before things went full anime-only. I expect it'll be a little disorienting in the beginning since it was so long between seasons and there was not really a smooth transition point, when you think about it, the story is still just getting started since only a little over half of season 1 actually happened.

Vintage style

LMAO got him 🤣🤣

Yup, can't wait. Hmm, I don't think it looks any more or less generic than most other big shonen and, especially at the time, I thought it was pretty unique for being as "modern day" as it was too, considering this was before recent stuff like MHA, Mob, etc.

Yup!

Nice ending with Christine letting her stay the night.

They were ready to kill themselves afterward too.

They explained earlier in the episode that first they copied his pattern and then tweaked it to accentuate certain traits they wanted, so not exactly a direct copy anymore.

Awwww, that's nice.

Oh shit, it talks

Nice save. Damn, he got squashed under it!

Ah, signal flare!
