It's A Lot

Union Cross is over, and honestly, I’m not sure what I just saw. Player trapped four willful darknesses in the datascape along with them, but unfortunately everyone in the datascape is not sleeping - they’re dead and their Chirithy turned into Dream Eaters. Player’s heart joined with a new heart, which happened to be Xehanort’s. Since the timeline is screwed up, I don’t know when anything happens. I was hoping to see Skuld as Subject X, but it looks like she was Xehanort’s mom after all (unless Braig/Luxu took her back in time to when Ephemer founded Scala). She hands the baby off to someone in a blue robe, who takes him to Destiny Island where he grows up but then the blue robe drops dead. Brain lands in Scala where Ephemer has been memorialized with a fountain statue, and someone named Sigurd says his arrival was foretold. We see Marluxia in a field of flowers looking like he doesn’t have a care in the world, but then they cut to an unconscious Elrena on the cliffside where the evil queen dies, and there’s lightning around. Don’t be there, El! Someone help her! And then of course Ven is facedown in the Keyblade Graveyard, and we know what happens to him from there. Luxu goes on to possess Brain, maybe? I thought he was just supposed to give him the No Name.
 

Damn it, Kyo. Two episodes after telling Tohru he wouldn’t be disappointed in her, the episode title is “I’m Disappointed in You." It was spaced out more in the manga, but the anime doesn’t have that kind of time. At least that one maid had the correct reaction to the situation - screaming for help because Kureno got stabbed. At least Akito had the same reaction after the cliff crumbled beneath Tohru. Masterful acting by Colleen as always, as well as Momiji laying into her. Akito is responsible for her own actions, but I find it interesting that she got the knife and her emotional baggage from her mom.

RWBY Chibi came back because things got too real again in the main series. This time, however, it’s part of an anthology cartoon series that may or may not also include RTAA. Looking forward to seeing Yssa talk about Hamtaro games.
 

Key Lime Kit Kats are great, even better than the M&Ms. Still not sure I’d like the lemon meringue Kit Kats, but maybe if they came in regular size instead of bags of minis I would be more open to trying it. Or maybe those Dove candies I’ve seen advertised online.
