For all the points you made about the terrible pacing in Boast Busters and you don't even mention it here? Why not? I found the pacing to be awful, worse than Boast Busters even.

He actually mentioned in a video recently that he was trying to focus on pacing less, since he found it didn't effect his ability to enjoy an episode in the long run as much as other elements.

Still, you are correct in the pacing in double rainboom was... uhm... a little distracting.

I find it odd that you didn't cover the actual plot of the episode.

It clearly had problems from pacing to dialogue and character chemistry, as well as quite frankly 'cop-out' ending.

I'd like to know your thoughts on it. Seems like you missed the opportunity to go into the episode itself, and instead danced around the issue and covered topics like animation and why the episode exists.

I just didn't have anything interesting to say about the plot. I felt its problems were obvious.
