This is the best episode so far, packing in everything that I wanted to see with the enthralling team dynamic, a focus on Valentina's gender-fluidity, and mecha action that starts out entertaining before it takes a sharp left turn into suspense.

My 2 Cents on gen:LOCK, Episode 3, “Second Birthday”
This is a conflictive episode for me, since it strengthens the team dynamic of the characters on one hand and presents a tiresome love triangle on the other.
My 2 Cents on gen:LOCK, Episode 2, “There’s Always Tomorrow”
Telling the truth of Julian Chase's apparent death and the gen:LOCK program, focusing on his estranged relationship with his former girlfriend, widening the cast with a motley team of recruits, boosting the action with a Union spy — this episode advances the web series forward in spite of a few dubious plot devices.
My 2 Cents on gen:LOCK, Episode 1, “The Pilot”
If gen:LOCK can develop its characters and its mech-filled world well, I can easily see it become as enthralling as RWBY.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6
In between bits of slow pacing and questionable plot devices, RWBY: Volume 6 lights up with the passionate heart of its characters as they pursue an extreme example of the rocky cross-country trip.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 13, “Our Way”
While the finale spreads itself thin by trying to wrap up so many story arcs, it manages to hit most of the right notes to end another enthralling volume in the RWBY saga.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 12, “Seeing Red”
A few more entries have been added to my list of favorite Volume 6 moments thanks to the time that "Seeing Red" devotes to Ruby Rose's leadership arc and the heartfelt Bumblebee ship amid the high-energy action. (SPOILER ALERT: This is a full breakdown review for "Seeing Red") "Seeing Red" is the twelfth episode of … Continue reading My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 12, “Seeing Red”
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 11, “The Lady in the Shoe”
The rational voice in your head may wish to harp on about the pure fun and silliness of the mech fuss in the first half of the episode, while it may calm down during the fervent combat and genuine character beats in the second half. My advice is to simply let yourself enjoy every moment of this action-packed episode.
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 10, “Stealing From The Elderly”
This is by no means a perfect episode, but the setup of our heroes' daring scheme to escape Argus is entertaining enough and supplemented by a sprinkling of RWBY's brand of irreverent humor. (SPOILER ALERT: This is a full breakdown review for "Stealing From The Elderly") RWBY: Volume 6, the anime-style fantasy-action web series by … Continue reading My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 10, “Stealing From The Elderly”
My 2 Cents on RWBY: Volume 6 – Episode 9, “Lost”
In spite of a contrived conclusion to why one of the heroes went missing in the previous episode, "Lost" is a superb episode that explores the nuances and drives of our villains and honors the dear memory of a great Huntress.
