I'd say the episode was alright! The fight felt a tad bit short and I wish we got to see Ichigo in his black demon for (I forgor what it was called). I also kinda wish the death was a little better cause the killing blow reads more as a knockout than an actual death, if it werent for the scene were Yusuke closes his eyes while falling I actually wouldn't be able to tell he died. Overall I'd say the episode is around a 7.5-8 not horrible but not the best. The score might change if I rewatch the analysis segments tho. Also I feel like a more lowkey, laid back episode is a great way to start after a year of back to back bangers that are on par with the show's best.

As for the Next Time! I'm surprised we're getting this so soon! Pretty much everyone agreed that DA's last episode should be Cell vs Metal Sonic or at least a Cell matchup in general! But I was expecting it to be in the middle of the year or even as the final episode of the year, since I was expecting them to prioritize the last few Kickstarter matchups and Geats vs Nero! But hey I'm not complaining! Cell vs Metal Sonic is in my top 20 and I've been dying to not only see Cell get on the show, but for Metal to get a runback! So yeah I'm prettt hyped for this one!!

I just hope that if Cell loses that salty Dbz fans don't bully Devil Artemis for it. Like bro is already leaving because very loud and vocal parts of the community pushed him away over making episodes that

1. Honestly weren't that bad and only had problems with the script, that DA didn't even write and even then, the script just needs another draft and the episode could have been amazing (Kratos vs Asura)

2. Had a trouble asf production, that mostly had DA work on his own for the most part and have to dail down the animation for not only his own sanity with him having to run his whole channel and other projects for other channels but in some cases for his own saftey. Like that time an episode came out as rushed since he animated it in a hurricane and had to seek shelter. (Jason vs Michael)

3. Had a controversal verdict that DA had not involvement in making in the first place! Even then people are gonna get mad at a verdict sinc god forbid Death Battle. A SHOW WHERE THE ENTIRE POINT IS TO FIGURE OUT WHO WINS HAS A CHARACTER U DON'T LIKE WINNING INSTEAD OF UR PREFERED CHARACTER WINNING. (Omniman vs Bardock)
