THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
And I thought MAL is having problems with the forums again, since no one has made a discussion yet...

Anyways, some hidden feelings of hate from Holly with her father, which seems to be resolved now. She was so adorable when she was little, as well as Joey. And yep, helmet solves everything. I kinda get the impression that Heroman and Joey's father looks very similar. Thoughts?

I got some Peter Parker vibes(in Spiderman 3) from Joey here for being insensitive to his girl and just caring about himself. I mean, you look for someone who was lost then you blab about yourself and don't care about the one you're looking for? Epic fail Joey.

But it seems we have an issue here now with Will and the new enemy that will appear at the White House. So the past events are connected to each other? Who knew(well, we all did). Time for the final arc and the final boss. I bet that the shooting star is also involved with the happenings. Let's see Heroman's new ability(seriously, is there no end to the powerups) and Will's powers.

Lina in sleeping clothes and Holly's clothes while at home is so sweet ^_^

Why did they wait to almost the end the series to talk about their past? The pacing is waaay off.

I was starting to get a little annoyed at Joey, but the episode seemed to end ok.

I'm looking forward to this last arc. I hope they make it epic (well at least for this show).

Well, i would of liked to see it incorporated earlier, but it was done well. Actually at first i was annoyed they finished retelling the father's story at the start and Holly was holding a grudge at their father for dying. However, her speech wasn't that bad.
Dramatic Psy ending wasn't very dramatic after all.

I laughed when Joey said "i shall not run away!" *waves crashing in background* followed by a proclamation that Heroman has 'obviously' gained a new ability out of the blue.

Not buying the ridiculous reason for Holly bad mouthing her dad, but who am I to tell some imaginary character how to feel. I didn't really like this episode, but things are moving along.

so basically the entire episode was about people w/ father issues

Whoa, this episode's quality was way better than most of the episodes so far, they probably had it planned for a looooong time. And Holly was sexier than ever.

Nice character development, I saw that coming but it was well excecuted nonetheless. Unfortunately, the "dad's death" topic had to take a standalone episode, while this time Lina takes up too much attention. On top of that, if the topic was really important (showing many times the helmet and the picture, especially in the opening) they had to bring it up more consistently during the series.

4 episodes left and a new arc beginning? I really hope they can wrap it up well without an annoying cliffhanger to an eventual sequel.

Nice episode. I wonder if there's a chance for them to come back with "The Return of Heroman". This stuff is too good to let go.

* I like the American reference with Lina drinking Horizon-brand milk. Very funny.

This was the most depressing episode so far, but still good.
I just can't stop loving the typical American setting. I keep thinking to myself, omg I've been there! lol~
