Basquash! – 10



Very, very solid episode. My favourite part of this show has always been the Dan vs. Coco storyline, and this episode was entirely about that. On top of that, the romance between Dan and Rouge remains surprisingly enjoyable because of this. This episode was all about Dan, seeing Coco’s image in Rouge (probably because Rouge is the first female he sees as more than just a friend), and because of that he started remembering his past again, starts yelling and running around the baseball field like an idiot.

I also love how we see Coco in the background, carrying out her own agenda. She may show no emotions, but this episode really showed that she’s doing something that she likes doing. As it turns out she is much less scared of the past (probably because she learned to live with her disability, as opposed to Dan who still refuses to give up on her. Slash also made a good point in this episode: she could easily be playing a bigfoot with a few modifications made, and yet she chooses not to.

Overall that Slash intrigues me as well. HE (she?) was introduced as your typical evil overlord, but yet again she turned out to be someone completely different when s/he visited Coco for the information on Dan and the others.

One thing I do hope is that Dan’s going to stop yelling from now on. Especially in this episode, his screams were rather obnoxious to watch.

Rating: * (Good)
Very nice development for Dan, although the animation wasn’t that impressive.
