Blog Update #8

April 19, 2021 by Aaron Ngo

I’m writing this post to let you all know that I will be temporarily stop the blog reviews. I have found my time is too split between daily life, work, a writing opportunity I need to get back on, my YouTube Channel, Dungeons and Dragons, and playing card games—to help the YouTube Channel grow. I am also trying to find my reading and writing habits and get them back to 2020 consistency.

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 41 "Mon-Mon Park in the Fog" Review

April 02, 2021 by Aaron Ngo

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 41 "Mon-Mon Park in the Fog" Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

Episode 41— “Mon-Mon Park in the Fog”—was another filler, but it was a great story. I enjoyed the exploration of TK and Matt’s brotherhood, and how that lead to Patamon regaining his power to become Angemon again. The dynamic between TK and Matt is incredible—a great reminder on why I do see a lot of myself in Matt.

Falcon and The Winter Soldier Episode 1 Review.

Falcon and The Winter Soldier finally dropped on Disney+ on March 19, 2021. I have been waiting for this series forever, but the wait was absolutely worth it. This episode had a couple issues, but what show doesn’t?

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 40 "Strike! The Killer Shot" Review

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 40 "Strike! The Killer Shot" Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

Episode 40—“Strike! The Killer Shot”—readdressed Sora’s love for soccer in addition to her motherly nature. The episode may have also hinted at the Tai-Sora romance as well, but that could just be me projecting my feelings about it from the original series. There were many funny character interactions from Matt, Izzy, Joe, and Mimi as well. Kari and TK were playing the whole time, which was super cute.

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 39 "Jyagamon, Potato Hell" Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

Another filler episode that I enjoyed so much. Joe Kido received unexpected character development that made me love his character even more. The eight DigiDestined are finally together, and they are traveling to a rest area. They are lucky the rest area has a restaurant that offers free burgers to all travelers. We also meet a new Digimon called Burgamon.

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 38 "The Blazing Blue Friendship" Review

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 38 "The Blazing Blue Friendship" Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

I didn’t enjoy the “Matt-centric” episode compared to last week’s. The animation was wonky, there was picture play-by-play, and the Matt development wasn’t as strong. It wasn’t even visually appeasing to watch. There was also no “MetalGarurumon” either. WHY DOES NOBODY GET MEGA AND TAI GETS TWO? I don’t understand.

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 37 "Mimi-chan Wars" Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

Episode 37—“Mimi-chan Wars”—gave Mimi the much deserved spotlight. While she didn’t get a Rosemon Mega Digivolution, Mimi did get sweet character development, awesome moments of bossing Tai around, and a brand new Lilymon digivolution.

The Promised Neverland Season 2 Episode 6 Anime Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

Episode 6 started off with the rushed reveal of Norman being alive and reuniting with Emma and Ray. While I found this reunion ultimately inappropriate, I was crying like a joyous baby at 2am in the morning.

This Is Us Season 5 Episode 8 "In The Room" Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

Wow. I cried so much watching this episode. I hadn’t cried on that level since season 1. The tears would not stop rolling for all the joy happening. I wasn’t expecting so much joy. The characters honestly deserved this episode of epic joy. The love story of Nasir and Esther Ahmed was also a great one to explore in addition to giving us knowledge of the one who gave us the technology needed to survive this ongoing pandemic. It’s honestly beautiful. The entire episode gets 10/10 for me.

This Is Us Season 5 Episode 7 “There” Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

This Is Us is back… for the third time since season 5 premiered. The show needs to stop taking so many breaks. Anyway, I got around to watching the latest episode, “There”. I had a great time with Kevin navigating what’s most important to him, and how being there for his kids is more important than his career. After five seasons, Kevin figured it out - “What would Jack Pearson do?”

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 36 "Operation Satellite Sniper" Review

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 36 "Operation Satellite Sniper" Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

Episode 36—“Operation Satellite Sniper”—was potentially a great Izzy-centric episode idea, but the forced Tai-Agumon love kind-of ruined the overall episode. The “threat to Japan” was finally addressed head-on after episodes of teasing by Izzy, but the episode didn’t give Tentomon his Mega form.

Digimon Adventure REBOOT Episode 35 "The Glowing Angewomon" Review. Written by Aaron Ngo.

Episode 35—“The Glowing Angewomon”—had great character development for Kari and Gatomon. While the action sequences are consistently amazing with the fan-service, like the underwater battles reminded me of battling underwater in Digimon World 3, the plot needs some work to keep things flowing more smoothly.

On November 2, 2020, I started and finished One Piece’s “Loguetown Arc”—the final canon story arc in the East Blue Saga. The first six days out at fictional sea reading One Piece’s first 100 chapters had been an amazing journey to get on the journey toward Grand Line.
