The Sacred Blacksmith #02 — Pacemaker
October 10th, 2009
This show needs one,
Impressions:
Just a quick note to pop in and say that this episode was awful and I’m out. If you thought the monster standing around while Luke cast his spell was bad, it took another 90 seconds of Luke and the monster staring at each other before they attacked each other, and then we sat there listening to Lisa explain Luke’s sword for another two minutes, until the beasty shot some icicles. FINALLY at about 8 minutes into the episode, Luke killed the monster and we finally made it to the same place that we were one minute into episode one. Then Cecily’s breastplate exploded and she beat up Luke for the proper hilarious ending to that ordeal. I think I took more offense at the abject impossibility of wearing metal armor against skin than the godawful juvenile humor. Sadly, things somehow managed to get worse from there, all but dropping Cecily and Luke for about five minutes. Instead, we got to watch people sitting around a table talking about generic magical bad mojo. Yeah, demons, volcano, evil, got it. Great. Bloody great.
So the action got worse, the pacing stayed terrible, and the only interesting thing happened in the final 3 seconds of the episode. I’m tapping out. Good luck for those that decide to continue.
