I'm already planning how to work Monkey Fist being turned into stone for another fanfiction - so I kinda hope that he DOESN'T get turned back into flesh for a while.... I wrote up the premise several months ago, but Monkey Fist being turned to stone actually fits for it....

loved the episode but i have to say i think Ron got the short end of the stick here. Ever since s1 when Ron got his powers i have always hopped Ron and Monkey Fist would get to have one more fight like the had in s1. oh well beggars can't be choosers. loved the ep and Hana was so cute! and yippee for the kiss, its about time!

One thought I have for you Fan Fic writers is in the future when Hana is in high school, she would have to deal with being labeled weird because of her powers. And struggling to be a normal kid.

Wow, I'm the first person to not give this episode full points. *feels almost guilty. Almost* Sorry, but it was only a 4/5 from me. Which is not bad by any means. I really did like this episode. My main complaint is that this was incredibly dark for a KP episode. I mean, really, really dark. I did not like to watch everyone being turned into stone--including Monkey Fist. I found it disturbing and a little out of place of the show's usual feel. I also felt that it was a little awkward coming into the episode. All the really good stuff was in the last ten minutes. Now that I've gotten that out, here's the good stuff. I found it a very well written episode. It had a surprisingly complex plot and Ron's emotions were very tangible. I felt so bad for him! I have never seen so much emotion from him! It was awesome! I adored the Flippies. Flippies rock. Yo. Hana was just adorable, and I really enjoyed the relationship that, well, everyone had with her: parents, Ron, Kim, Yono, Monkey Fist, Yori, etc. Cute, cute, cute. I love that freaky ninja baby. I adored the attention to the running gag of "This is our way of telling you." Ron's revenge at the end was priceless. Simply gorgeous animation. I'm a sucker for a good K/R kiss. So yes, many perks to this episode, but I still was a bit disturbed, so a star off for that. It came off as fanfic (very good fanfic, admittedly) than classic KP.

oh and this just came to me, is Monkey Fist the new Yono? the path to the Yono could mean just the power of Yono. When Yono gave Monkey Fist the mark that could have made him the new Yono. And Yono was on the temple and was stone when Fist found him and now Fist is stone and the temple sunk with him on it but the monkey Yono wasn't there.

STOP TORTURING MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry, But I missed this ep and I just thought, "oh well, I'll see it another time." Then I see all these GREAT reviews about it! THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME!!!! THAT KISS!!!!!!!!!! NOOOO!!!! I NEED TO SEE IT ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STOP TORTURING ME! sorry, but other eps I haven't seen when they first premiered I don't really care about that much, and I was thinking the same for this one, but then I read THE FULL five pages of reviews and then the screencap of the kiss, and then ashley's review! Boy, I'm dieing! I swear, I'm gonna have a heart attack or something, I need to see this ep! I need my enhaler, but the doctor has it! GOD! I NEED TO SEE THIS! I TOTALLY agree with u, kittykax, and the only reason I'm still online is to see if there's gonna be another big convo with serge, dezeero, and baroque like there was last night in the random thread 4. but at least now I know wat will happen.

About Ron's feet: He's been barefoot, at least, in "The New Ron" when he was in the changing room. He wore open toe flip flops in "The Golden Years" so we've seen his feet.

Oh okay, I know that he wore the flip flops, I just had never seen him fully barefoot.

Fantastic ep! Really. So glad I recorded it. This is one definitely not to be missed.
**SPOILERS**
I'm putting the warning there, even though everyone else has pretty much explained the whole episode already without any kind of alert.
There's not really anything more I can say that everyone else hasn't said yet. Ron's "revenge" against his parents was totally sweet! One of the funnier end blurbs from the season.
What I really loved, though, is Monkey Fist's fate! My god! I... I know I'm not going to be able to find it, and most likely it has been crunched by this point, but I kinda called Monkey Fist's demise way back when I first joined almost a year ago. Can't say it was a real prediction. Didn't say when it would happen, or how. Didn't even necessarily say it would happen. Just remember how I believed (and still do) that Monkey Fist is the most evil villain on the show. And, if they ever wanted to go a little darker, and maybe even kill someone off, he would be the one to take out. And, they sure did. I mean... he's not gone forever. He could be revived, at some point. But, as someone else pointed out, for all intents and purposes with the show, Monkey Fist is no more.
So freakin' surprising! But, for me, a welcome surprise. It's always nice to see writers (and directors) not only take a chance by changing up the normal feeling of a show (as the Piratess was on to), but also by removing a major (and fan favorite) character. Kudos to the KP team! And great job ending the MMP storyline!
**END SPOILERS**
Got the 5 by 5 from me! Hope everyone else enjoys it.
On a side note: go see Ratatouille! (made me really hope Pixar does a KP movie someday...)

I guess I can respect them for going out on a limb... it did work. I still gave it a very respectable 4. And yes, go see Ratatouille. *huggles her Remy sig*

I've got hundreds of caps from this episode, I'll try to find some pre-kiss caps when I sort through them.
