Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
Hmmm ep 3 didn't hit as hard for me ngl. Like don't get me wrong, absolutely fucked how badly the public's perception can screw you over, poor man couldn't shit or sleep properly, that's some body horror right there. I like how this episode reinforced how you have to be careful with your image or stuff like that can happen, but also that was already shown pretty well with Moon only teleporting to Nice and Lin Ling developing OCD (or pre exising ocd getting worse idk). I guess it was showing the physical effects rather than powers and mental effects as well as commenting on toxic masculinity, but something about it just didn't really hit me.
Again though, something didn't feel right to me. Perhaps that was due to this feeling more like a stop gap between ep2 and ep4 as well as getting Nice/Lin Ling to the top ten. (but also like him not already being top ten didn't need to happen sooooo) Overall the episode did not feel bad, just not at the same level. Which I can't expect tbhx to be constantly going actually insane, so that's on me. (not a dis on the show, I just set the bar at Pluto after the first 2 episodes, need to bring that back down to like, maybe the moon, which is still insane, but i have faith) I also maybe just need to rewatch ep3, i could've missed a detail that would make me lose it. The facial expression on that one guy's face in the Firmman backstory segment was hilarious tho. 10/10 background character
