Not quite the immediately fascinating start season one had, but that was a hard opener to top, so this more low-key episode works just fine. It’s interesting that we’re starting with Mirror Tulip; I always wondered what happened to her, but wasn’t expecting to find out this way. (Not sure I like the new design compared to her short-haired version, but that’s neither here nor there.) The mirror cops are still on her tail, and since she seems like she’s going to be a major character in season two moving forward, it’ll be interesting to see those two bumped up to major antagonist status.
I definitely didn’t miss the foreshadowing of how she’s going to stop them for good, don’t worry.
And Jesse! An interesting new human passenger! And he’s funny! I wasn’t expecting him to be so likable after the intro of him being smug about “his” deer, but he’s actually really fun so far. I like him. It’ll be interesting to see his journey, if we do in fact focus on him and not just have Mirror Tulip leave him behind after the events of the first couple episodes. We’ll have to see!
The Black Market Car, being the first episode of Season 2, obviously comes in at my new #1 for the season, but it also comes in at my new #6 overall, between The Unfinished Car and The Ball Pit Car. It was good, just not to the heights that the top five of this show reached last season. Hopefully it stays strong and picks up speed from here!
Up next is going to be the next episode of Infinity Train! We’ll be doing that on Wednesday, so stay tuned for that. Before that, though, tomorrow I’m going to stream more of my blind playthrough of The Outer Worlds! You can see me live at my Twitch channel, or watch the playlist of Outer Worlds streams I’ve already done by clicking here.
Thank you all for tuning in, and I’ll see you next time!
