On a side note, I've found that I enjoy the side characters much more than Spike. Sure he has the "dark and brooding past" trope, but that's it. He isn't very expressive most of the time, and lately they've just been wheeling him out for the main story episodes. I don't know, he just seems kinda overrated.

Right now, Jet is my favorite character and Faye has the best background out of all of them (at least up till now), and even though I like Spike, he really doesn't do much outside of episodes that focus solely on him. Still, I like Jet's personality more.

Just a beautiful episode that's about Faye, she finally gets to know a little bit more about herself.
The ending was so sweet.

Watching tiny Faye was wholesome

Kinda emotional how she forgot everything but her younger self is always there to cheer her from now on

I love the Beta v VHS lore, and that ending took a good character and made a great one.

fuck nostalgia on cowboy vhs/beta

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

Great episode! I enjoyed seeing all of the old electronics, and the journey in the abandoned Tokyo museum was neat too. Spike messing up all the electronics was pretty funny too, and it was neat to see a bit of Faye's past in the tape. A fun episode overall.

couldn't remember any more that this exact episode was this late in the series.

The Betamax guy was funny, in italian dub he the same voice of Eric Cartman from South Park (well, the original dub) and at the end they seemed very similar.

What a weird return for The Egg And I soundtrack song, it didn't feel suited for that search by Spike and Jet, even if it's nice to see how much they are dedicated to the mission.

Yeah, Spike could have handled some things differently, yeah, who the hell sent the parcels, whatever... the ending is wonderful. i'm the first one that was annoyed by some antics of Faye before, but it's impossible for me to not feel sorry for her now (well, now and at every rewatch before). The world is cruel, the world shows no mercy, and soooooooooo many young people are just doomed to have her same optimism and cheery personality crushed hard with no anesthesia at some point.
