So...This wasn't very good. Should've been a 2 parter.
This episode moved just as fast as last episode, and that's not a good thing because I don't know, or care, about any of our protagonists. I can't get invested in Lucky dangling over a pit of smelted metal because I don't give a fuck about him. I can't get invested in Naga and Balance's brief betrayal between each other because they were just introduced 6 minutes ago and I know fuck all about them.

It seems Orange is getting an episode all his own, so that's nice. However, that won't make things better because, despite being 3 episodes in by then, we still have so little on our cast due to their piss poor introductions that the majority of the episode will be dedicated to introducing and establishing Sasori Orange, so it won't fix the actual problem.

This series is pushing things. Lucky is still as obnoxious as ever, which is making wanting to keep with the show even more difficult. I don't want to dislike the series because the premise and visuals are nice, but I have to be honest in saying that I don't even want to watch the next episode, because I fully anticipate more of the same...

...The bit where Lucky shows how to construct the weapon with Balance was fun.
