The idea of a guy like Liu Bei trying to go sleuthing was instantly intriguing to me as well, and the episode did not disappoint on that front, even if the plot for these ones really ends up evolving beyond that initial concept. They kinda have it all. That initial standalone plot is quite solid, the character building with Xu Shu is charming, you get an epic theme song power-up for Liu Bei... you get to see Liu Bei just utterly defeated in the end, which also builds character, and I mean, I am still all over Cao Cao and how it feels like he was dropped in from a totally different show. A whole lot to love in these episodes! (Even if I'm late to the party again!)
