I liked the hand drawn, stylised animation of this episode... very original...

Though I'm confused about how he died in the Matrix but woke up in the Nebuchadnezzar in the Real World...

The scene when he jumped from the building left me speechless and the action sequence was thrilling as well. As a result I was able to enjoy this ep despite not knowing the backstory of it.

This one was also very good.
I think they incosistency in the animation at the chase scene was a bit too much. But its relly a minor thing.

the skateboarding sakuga was way overdone resulting in something kinda cringe and corny.
