GC13 and David discuss Meet Tanya Keys from Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart.

Disappointingly, this is the only time we get to meet Tanya Keys. We’re sure glad we did though: she’s a very amusing character in her own right, and has such an interesting past with Mao Mao.

She’s also a shapeshifter, so you …

GC13 and David look at Hedgehog Werewolf, the episode of Summer Camp Island where, spoiler alert, Hedgehog becomes a werewolf.

Well, that’s two Cartoon Network shows of this generation where a main character (or characters!) becomes a werewolf. Enjoy your curse, Hedgehog!

Except, maybe it’s not a curse? It could be a metaphor. But for what…? …

GC13 and Isabelle open up the anime can with the first episode of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Dio the Invader.

Well, Dio is not a likable boy, is he? If he wasn’t good at everything he did, he’d probably have a hard time in life.

We’ll certainly be back to Jojo in the future. The floodgates have …

GC13 and David discuss The Ground is Lava from Craig of the Creek. No, these creek games aren’t getting any safer.

Well this is a rarity, isn’t it? An episode that zooms out to show that the kids’ fantasy play is just that: fantasy play. Hopefully they don’t make a habit of it.

J.P. gave The …

GC13 and David discuss Small from Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Hearts.

Don’t let the title confuse you: Small is Shin Mao’s big debut. Shin may not be that impressed by the kingdom or its king, but, well… His son comes out of the episode looking pretty impressive.

While we do get a lovely tour of …

GC13 and David discuss Summer Camp Island’s mystery episode: Pepper’s Blanket Is Missing.

Sailors get shore leave, so obviously thieves get sailor leave. Who put that rule into the new camp guide? Oscar was probably there—he’s everywhere. If Lucy were there in boss mode, we’d probably have a very different policy.

Do you need nice attention? …

GC13 and David discuss the first episode of Adventure Time: Distant Lands, BMO.

Well, surprises mount upon surprises when watching BMO. When going to distant lands, you don’t expect to see many familiar faces—or familiar feet, in this case. Still, it’s great to have a continuation of Adventure Time, and BMO managed to be an entertaining lead …

GC13 and David discuss Children of the Dog from Craig of the Creek. We hope it’s not spoiling too much to mention that it’s the return of Brigid (it does have “dog” in the title…).

Not to take anything away from how funny Craig of the Creek usually is, but Children of the Dog is especially hilarious. Oh …

GC13 and David discuss He’s the Sheriff from Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart.

What kind of king is King Snugglemagne? Obviously a bad one, but is he one doomed to failure, or does he have a chance to redeem himself? Obviously not as a sheriff (that job is terrible), but perhaps in some other way. …

GC13 and David carry on with Summer Camp Island, discussing Monster Visit from the first half of the first season.

It’s not hard to discern what Monster Visit is about: the discomfort caused when you try to be something you aren’t for the sake of pleasing others. Much more difficult to figure out is where the Godmonster …
