Also, I was surprised in the penultimate episode when Callum replaced Viren in the opening. I don't know if this had any meaning.

Yea that bit was strange, although I guess we don't know what you actually have to do to release Aaravos. Presumably it can't be that hard or why go to all the trouble of hiding it from EVERYONE?

enjoyed the season a lot, claudia getting some comeuppance for her poo poo was good but also i felt weirdly, incredibly sad about viren because his turn was pretty earned i thought

Sort of a pity he’s likely dead for good now Wonder if there’s hope for Claudia too or if she’ll just go even further off the deep end after losing her father twice (though she does have Terry to keep her in check now)

i wouldn't be surprised if she went completely off the deep end only to be pulled back by the power of Love and Friendship in the end

It was interesting that they laid more on about the king being the bird At this point I don't think it's happening, but it's still there as a possibility!

The third graphic novel Puzzle House is out now, it's basically about (a much more sane) Claudia and Soren as kids exploring the house of their dad's old mentor. Nothing really spoilery about it that I could see (though the end might have some baring on Claudia's character arc going forward) but a decent read nonetheless

I wish they'd either known they were getting more series in series 3 or that they'd just stopped there I think. Coming to the idea that I don't really enjoy these new ones, or at least they just don't feel the same

Pretty sure the show was always planned to be 7 seasons from the beginning (I forget what the long delay between 3 and 4 was about though, I assume it was covid related). At the very least 5 was better than 4 overall

The terrible wedding plot, the way characters just completely forget Soren's missing, the awful filler with the gate guards, a bunch of other things. Season 5 bounces back a lot, yeah, but that season is baaaaad.

Oh Season 4 is without a doubt the worst, yeah (the only saving grace is that it kind of kickstarted Viren’s redemption arc which 5 then expanded on)

And it's not bad because of that, but it definitely feels weird a lot of the time

I would say it was fine - nothing ground breaking. The voice actors for Claudia and Terry were there and they did a cute skit too.

Also, we still don't have a trailer or a release date for Season 6 yet do we?

it's interesting to look at the amount of IMDB ratings between series 1 (about 900 per episode) and 5 (about 100) Every series drops off hugely as it goes on

It doesn't help when it's a show that took a 2-3 year hiatus. Same with viewing statistics, Legend of Korra got that baaaad for season 3, and then season 4 was effectively doa

Some of the dialogue in the trailer sounded kind of final to me I don't think they can go back on it after agreeing it without paying out loads. If you've already paid for it, it's in the past and not on the books now, so gently caress it right?

True enough. Also if anyone happened to see the sneak preview of the first S6 episode at the con a little while back was the scene between Claudia and Terry from the trailer included in it (and if so, do we see exactly what she does to him afterwards)? That said, Season 5 was a step up over its predecessor at least and I am curious how Aaravos is going to get inevitably freed at this point (also as I predicted Claudia seems to have gone even further off the deep end after losing her father despite the lengths she went to to save him)
