You know, when I first saw this show, I was thinking it would be great. A show about four girls, from different parts of the world, who met, bonded and fought evil together. And they'd have a cast of memorable characters, grand environments, and acting that deserved an award.

Two Volumes later, I'm thoroughly convinced that Michael Bay could do a better job than Monty Oum. Look, Monty can do great action scenes. But the plot, what plot. Has the plot really moved along? Volume 1 was "all about setting things up", didn't happen. Yup, there is a terrorist threat out there...which got smashed by a green robot. Second volume, yes, the White Fang is making their move? So what are we doing? Contacting the proper authorities and preparing anti-terrorist operations...no. We're preparing for a dance. Yes. There is a huge threat out there, and we're preparing for a dance. What a great idea. Yes, we'll just invite the terrorists to screw with our stuff while we're getting drunk on punch and belting out Demi Lovato tunes.

And then the finale. Big threat. Yes, there is a huge threat, Grimm, the zombies of the world, are attacking! They're going to destroy the city! That is, until the Powerpuff Girls smash through them and deal with the consequences...of which there are none.

Although I do have hope for Volume 3. If they don't mess it up.
