Adventure Time 5.15

A Glitch is a Glitch

Ice King unleashes a computer virus that threatens to destroy everyone and everything in the Candy Kingdom except himself and Princess Bubblegum. He does it because she said she would only date him if he was the last person left alive. Finn and Jake go on a quest to find the cure to the virus. It takes them to some very weird places.

Thoughts

This episode is not animated in the traditional style for this show. It has a very pixelated look but not a uniform pixelated look. That's the best way that I can think of to describe it.

At one point Princess Bubblegum starts kissing her own hand, repeatedly. 

Steven Universe 1.41

Horror Club

Steven, Lars, and Sadie hang out with Ronaldo who is having a scary movie party. They start by watching Evil Bear 2 but the power goes out in the middle of the movie. They try to figure out what has happened to the power only to discover that the house is haunted, by a gem that was stuck in the walls of the house.

Thoughts

Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl are not in this episode. 

This story reveals that Lars and Ronaldo used to be friends when they were much younger but they had a falling out.

This episode didn't do much for me. I guess it expanded the backstory of this series a little bit but not enough to satisfy me.
