What I Liked

1. I absolutely do like how this show is giving us new Wakandans to meet and become fans of. I love that every episode is different so far. Like within this episode, we’re getting a Wakandan spy and Achilles in the battle of Troy?

2. Even in the battle of Troy, the Wakandans are so far ahead of everything in technology. It’s actually crazy to think about just how crazy advanced the Wakandans truly are. I mean we’re seeing technology that can heal you in this time period.

3. Seeing the Trojan horse in play within an animated show, seeing how they have connected this story to Wakanda, was absolutely beautiful. This is such a good story to be told within Wakanda’s lore and Marvel’s lore.

4. I do like how the series showcases that when spies from Wakanda go out on missions, where that be short or in this episode, 9 years… returning to Wakanda is not all that. The spies do feel alone and feel like an outsider.

What I Disliked

Nothing to dislike.

Favorite Moment

My favorite moment would be when Achilles destroys the talisman in front of Memnon, which forces Memnon’s hand into a fight with Achilles. The two go at it because Achilles believes Memnon has betrayed him.

Standout Character

I’m going to give this to Achilles. He was fantastic in this episode. He was a fierce warrior, and his attitude towards the battle was amazing.

Verdict

Overall, this was a fantastic episode set within the Battle of Troy. I loved everything about this episode. The characters, the action, and the story were all amazing. Overall, the series continues to impress me.

Rating: 9.3/10
