S4 EP 21 Paint A Picture It Will Last Longer RV

Hi everyone, first of all I am disappointed at not just you guys but also everyone at the Steven Universe-FC that not one person responded to this essay I worked really hard on. It is about how similar Blythe and Steven Universe, and no one seems to care. I am so disappointed. Here it is if you want to take a look and comment.

Anyway now that I got that off my chest, time to review this week's episode of Littlest Pet Shop. In this week's episode, Blythe takes credit for one of Minka's paintings when the monkey is embarrassed by it.

So what we have is simple one plot, so this will be very easy to recap. What happens is Minka is trying a new art style, actually painting pictures and not abstract drawings as her usual styles. She paints a picture of Blythe and the pets, and everyone loves it. Including Blythe who asks Minka is she can have it, as Minka is the only person who hates the painting.

Minka thinks if anyone knew about this painting, it would be embarrassing to her reputation, she tells Blythe do not tell anyone that she painted it. Everyone at Blythe's school likes the painting, and Blythe not knowing what to do and keep Minka's secret says she painted it. Well things get even more crazy when the Biskits want Blythe to paint a picture of them for their grandma who as we know from the previous Blythe adores. So we have an hair brained scheme of Blythe pretending to paint the Biskits, when it is really Minka, and things work out at the end, because the Biskits are dumb.

One plot this week yes finally. Those are so much better episodes.

Minka's fantasy was hilarious. I have to question why does Blythe bring the painting to school, I guess it so they can be a plot. Dam that Josh look what he made Blythe to. Not only is he bland, but look what he caused.

The Biskit that puppy dog face, don't ever do that again. That is just wrong, I did like though that they reference the blurry picture from before, if you are fan of anime like me you will appreciate that joke. That is a common trope especially in anime, when they show a picture of a character that they don't want to reveal yet, they blur the picture of have the frame picture just where their face is, or have sunlight right at their face, so I love that joke. Thank you writers.

In the end it all worked out, Blythe said it bet herself, they are lucky the Biskits are so dumb. And that moment at the end with the Biskits giving their grandma that portrait , I have admit that is touching.

I have seen this plot done many times, anyway I love Minka in this episode, she is just so awesome. And normally she is not one of my favorites, Minka rocked.

And you know how I used to pick on Jasper, well I have a new target, Jasper is awesome compared to the blandness that is Josh Sharp, at least Jasper as a personality, not a great one, but still it is more than what Josh has. If you are going to feature him so much writers, give him more of a personality. This is Flash Sencentury bad we have here. You are making me nostalgic for the days of Rio Porchaco, yes Rio Porchaco.

Anyway great episode.

Positives

1) Minka - every scene she is in this episode was hilarious.

2) One plot structure - finally a more focus episode with just one plot.

3) Continuity - I love how they brought up the events of "Senior Day"

Negatives

1) Blythe getting herself into a crazy situation which she could have easily avoided

So I liked this episode, I didn't love it, between the one plot structure, Minka, more of Blythe and the Biskits kind of bonding with their love for the Biskits grandmother, there is a lot to like, maybe not love. My score for this episode is a 9 / 10

So that is it for me, until have a nice LPS day, and Happy Mother's day.

PS: those that like my reviews, on my personnel journals, I might do reviews of Steven Universe episodes on my personnel Journals. That has nothing to do with LPS, just something for those that want to read more reviews to keep an eye out.
