Something I REALLY appreciate about this show is how it explores the unaddressed emotional flaws/baggage of both Scott and ESPECIALLY Ramona. After the 7th Evil Ex in a row, it becomes hard to ignore the one constant in each relationship. By humanizing the Evil Exs, the whole thing becomes far more complex and interesting.
I love how desperate Roxie fights compared to the other exes; figures since she‘s the only one not gifted with some crazy ability or status, also the only one who had a genuinely meaningful connection with Ramona AND the one easily hit the hardest by their separation
I agree. Most of the other exes felt more in love with themselves after their breakups with Ramona. Despite Roxie being a little unhinged, she showed how much she cares.
Unsurprisingly, Mae Whitman was not only the most comfortable behind a mic out of this whole cast, but she knew exactly how to play an animated (both art style and energy level) character like this.
This was one of my favorite fights in the show. From the beautiful animation to the storytelling between Ramona and Roxie’s past, this and Matthew vs Gideon’s fight really sold me on accepting this new change of pace for this story.
Changing Roxie to be heavier like her book counterpart was a good choice. It adds that fear she was undesirable in a Physical way by playing to how people tend not to feel beautiful when they aren’t fitting the standard. Roxie was never fat but she is by no means fit and skinny in the flashbacks and it was good to properly see them this time around.
Easily my favorite episode in the series I think. This fight was ridiculously well animated and Roxy had the most compelling ex story IMHO. It helps that The voice actor chemistry is really good. The reveal with Gideon and Julie at the end was a nice cherry on top.
Having Ramona have to deal with the shitty way shes treated people was a great narrative choice. Some of the exes like Matt and Gideon were bad people, but Roxy and Lucas werent bad to Ramona, she treated them badly because she could. Having her have to face up to that was great and it gave her really rewarding character growth
This is my favorite episode because: 1. Seeing Ramona fight Roxie in a bunch of movies with different animation styles looks so great. 2. Roxie is voiced by Mae Whitman, and she is one of my favorite voice actresses. She's Amity Blight, Tinkerbell, and Katara.
It's nuts how different everyone is from the movie despite having the same exact cast. A+ to all the actors for not phoning it in. Mae Whitman really flexed her VA experience here. I never noticed how the movie version of her is a bit basic by comparison and played up as a joke character, that being she's the only girl ex that was also a bonkers lesbian. You really get a sense of her rage and bitterness here, along with her shock in finally getting validation. Just a top tier performance. I do hope the entire cast stick around if a Season 2 happens because they did wonders bringing these characters to life.
I was mentally comparing this more to the comics more than the movie. In the movie each evil ex has got a whole story arc where they were the antagonist with only Patel being a singular boss fight. In the movie each evil exes are just jumping Scott so frequently in a rush to complete all the story beats that the they can no longer represent relationship baggage the way they did in the comics. But the TV show removes Scott which just changes everything because no body is filtered through Scott’s perspective
I've seen people criticize the voice acting...they clearly have no idea what they're talking about. The voices actually match the expressions and the vibe of each character. Mae Whitman's voice literally fits Roxie in this, especially when you see Roxie obviously getting emotional.
Well the difference is Mae Whitman is a voice actor first, she has way more experience as a VA than the rest of the cast so she is able to deliver an excellent performance. I can see why some people think some of the cast delivered an underwhelming performance, but that’s to be expected since most of them are NOT voice actors so they have way less experience.
@@Dell-ol6hbI was surprised to find out that she’s Katara.. Lol.. I found that out literally after I watched this episode.. I was like “Holy shit, why does the Roxie actor can voice act so so so well…? And why does she sounds the best out of every single cast in the series..?” And then I Googled her, suffice to say that my surprised were not surprised anymore.. Lol…
Tbf, Mae is legit good and stands out from the others. I don't think they necessarily suck, but most of them don't quite feel as great as true VAs. That being said I got used to it and just enjoyed the novelty of them being virtually the same cast as the movie.
It depends on the character. I suspect that even though they said the English VAs recorded first, the animation was done to the Japanese VAs because it actually matches how certain Japanese verbal intejections are animated in other shows.
Mae is one of the exceptions, the rest don't deliver half as well. Some of the cast feels flat at times and there are moments when Ramona's voice doesn't match her expressions.
I don't know who true it is but the trope that girls experiment in college seems pretty common. Unfortunately the cliche that are gsy people are tossed aside once the straight person gets bored is also a recurring theme. Unfortunately having the conversation of "I was just trying you out, this was never going anywhere" isn't something most college students are mature enough to do delicately.
This episode was my favorite by far. I wish the rest of the show would've been a lot more like this with Ramona or honestly anyone directly fighting and confronting their people from their past until they eventually patch things up or at least try to. Something closer to how the original story dealed with things but in a more empathetic way.
@@franciscoOrellana29 not in the same way and not with all of them but just something closer to this instead of episodes that just kinda felt more filler-ish than anything like 4 and 5. They were good but the weakest one of the bunch in my opinion.
@ALGOChannel 4 was atleast somewhat ok with Lucas learning he doesn't need his fame put 5 was so fucking bad with how Ramona didn't even get her info or resolution from Todd
@@98Emile True, true. Then from 6 and beyond I'm honestly not a fan of the whole old yet manchild Scott plot either. Kinda wish they would've kept the story a bit more grounded.
@@ALGOChannel me personally, the time travel was fine but only if the masterminds were scott AND Ramona using this to make Ramona realize her mistakes. Then both of them fuse with their younger counterparts
I enjoyed the New Game + Alternate Story route; Secret Boss unlocked version they showed. We all know Scott was a hopeless ass but in the original, we got to see him grow into a hopeless ass with awareness and accountability. We never really got that from Ramona's side - she had all this emotional baggage she was trying to run away from, she never thought of the people she dumped and how it affected them. Whole reason Scott had to fight was because of Ramona's inability to face her past. Seeing her being able to address this and reconcile with that part of herself with those she hurt was pretty cool. Everyone got a happier ending in this version.
except scott, who in this version did not have character development nor did he fight against nega scott, so now he is too immature to be with the ramona of this series
@@Hanako-kunFandub5618 For one they sort of made this bridge by him viewing his lived experiences in VR. Secondly by being willing to fight his future self shows he's able and willing to make those same choices again. Third he still manages to break things off with Knives in a healthy way. His development isn't the focus similar to Ramona's development not being the focus of the original.
@@NotTheWheel Well, you're right about that, but he still has to fight Nega Scott to get his memories back or else he'll make the same mistakes with Ramona.
Out of all the evil exes, I really get Roxie the most. Throughout the show, she’s the only one in the league that tries to fight for Ramonas’ heart. Even though Roxie’s intentions were ill-advised, she’s more in love with Ramona than her own personality unlike the rest of the league. Roxie of all people deserves a special someone, but not Ramona of course.
Honestly, I'm just glad we get to see Ramona's fuck-off massive sledgehammer again, if only briefly. Every series needs at least one fuck-off massive sledgehammer.
And I’d also have two nickels for every time she played a character who dressed up like a ninja and tried to kill someone she loved (Rose from American Dragon). Weird, right?
Now this is some wicked animation work. Never thought I’d hear Amity say “Ora”. Guess she’s been watching a lot of anime with Luz. I’m glad Ramona and Roxie decided to forgive each other after their breakup in the end of this fight, but that poor Video rental store.
Honestly an improvement towards the movie in that regard. It was a cool fight but pretty flippant of how much of a dick Ramona was to her unlike here and in the comics. Glad they made up
I wasn't sure about the direction the show was taking until this fight. Up until this entire rental store scene, everything _felt_ like SP, but I didn't get at all what they were going for on, like, an emotional/thematic level. Once we got here, though? Damn, I got it. And I was so excited to see what else those crazy bastards had in store for us.
I honestly wasn't feeling it during the first episode myself, felt like an overly abridged retelling of the same story. Once Scott got punched death though, I had to watch more. I do not regret persisting at all.
the music in this scene is great. i really enjoyed ramona as a more prominent focus and the “centerpiece” in SPTO. her and Knives were always my favorite
mae whitman blew me away here, she legit sounds like an anime VA, unlike most actors who seem like they're taking regular acting into VA. *looks at mae's filmography* ohh, that's why
You can tell how much better Mae Whitman is at voice acting with her experience. Don’t get me wrong, this series is great but a majority of the cast sound awkward voicing their animated counterparts.
I feel like the episodes with Lucas and Todd should've been more like this, specially the Lucas one, it felt like he was really hurt by Ramona in the past and she didn't do anything about it
What I gathered for Lucas was that he realized he didn't really _need_ Ramona to do anything anymore. He'd moved on enough on his own. Kinda like when you think you need this _one final thing_ for closure, but by the time you get that final thing you, realize you already found closure somewhere on the way. Then again, I watched it in one sitting, and spent 90% of it screaming and crying about my boy Matthew. May be due for a proper analysis rewatch. 😂
Mae Whitman’s more notable roles (In order from 90s to 2020s) 1996 - Independence Day as Patricia Whitmore (the president’s daughter (Yes… THAT one)) 1997-2004 - Johnny Bravo as Little Suzy 2003 - The Jungle Book 2 as Shanti 2005-2007 - American Dragon: Jake Long as Rose / Huntsgirl 2005-2008 - Avatar: The Last Airbender as Katara, Lu Ten 2008 - Tinker Bell as Tinker Bell herself (her role as Amity Blight makes more sense) 2010 - Scott Pilgrim vs. the World/Animation as Roxanne "Roxy" Richter and Lisa Miller respectively (THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME SHE PLAYED ROXIE) 2015 - The DUFF as Bianca Piper (the MC) 2020-2023 - The Owl House as Amity Blight Of course, there is SO much more, but it would take forever. Some former child stars tend to work like with their filmography going on forever.
i love how this scene alternates the perspective from the old timey 1930s movie to kill bill to red dead redemption. what a fucking masterpiece this anime adaptation is even the insane transitions than watching a full fledged insane jason statham movies about a brutal psycho killer who stole his real heart and turned into a metallic poison heartbeat from the crank sequel.
Scott Pilgrim is a great example of the "magical realism" subgenre pushed to its extreme. Magical realism has 3 primary rules: 1. The world is VERY normal most of the time. 2. Magical moments go more-or-less unexplained. 3. Characters in the story remain mostly unfazed by the magic. Usually the moments of magic in these stories is kept subtle (often disguised as drug trips or dreams) to maintain the authenticity of the world's mostly ordinary elements. Scott Pilgrim meanwhile has characters summoning demons or getting sucked into movies while STILL maintaining its grounded centre. That isn't easy! ONE misstep is all it takes for everything to implode. The magical elements must follow an internal consistency, otherwise it all feels random and robs the realistic elements of their weight. Yet simultaneously if you ever directly explain/address how the magical elements actually work, you ground them in a way that makes them a permanent part of what's supposed to feel like a realistic world.
There's a whole book that I love because it's just magical realism called 100 Years of Solitude. A very slept on book in the anglo world, but great at this.
Does anyone else think Roxie looks like Himiko Toga when she’s wearing that mask? (And yes, I know Scott Pilgrim came out years before My Hero Academia)
Shockingly, staircases match the design of the building they're in, and this is a very common design. Also, this is a different design than the one in EEAAO
For some reason I never realized back then that Rory’s actress is the same Mae Whitman that voiced Katara, 2012 April O Neil, Stephanie Brown and Amity. What a talent. Fun fact, her mother is Pat Musick, the voice actress of the 1980s April O Neil!
The way Ramona dumped Roxie and Lucas made me wonder why anybody would like her. Lucas, the most chillest person in the series got cheated on and Roxy just got dumped by Ramona out of nowhere, like what the hell, Fucking Envy was more likable. Im so glad the anime fixed Ramona and made her realize her mistakes

Being the one to have beaten Scott he seemed genuinely excited to have Ramona as his girlfriend again

Yeah whoever played Young Niel needs to turn up his freaking audio because I can't understand 75% of his lines

Roxy gives angry hamster energy and I love it
Half ninja, half gremlin
My name is roxy 😂
Funnily enough, she sang the hampster song when she left the store
At 1:38, notice how Roxie went specifically for the remote and not Kim, as to say “We’re fighting about our feelings here! Can you not interfere?!”
Honestly I think this was the best ex fight scene we got in the series. Love the creative way they decided to have the fights in different movies.
Mae was great as Roxi. She can go from hyper and psychotic to depressed and sympathetic in seconds.

i love how this scene alternates the perspective from the old timey 1930s movie to kill bill to red dead redemption. what a fucking masterpiece this anime adaptation is even the insane transitions than watching a full fledged insane jason statham movies about a brutal psycho killer who stole his real heart and turned into a metallic poison heartbeat from the crank sequel.
Roxie Vs Ramona
The Two Girls Both Ended in a Draw
Yes that is indeed what happened
@@scottbowenkelly575 Roxie won since Ramona concedes. It was entirely her fault anyway since she just left Roxie without saying a word.
Good input.
@@jonathanbaldwin5290 Yes Good
1:36 👌🙂
this episode was a work of art

Scott Pilgrim is a great example of the "magical realism" subgenre pushed to its extreme. Magical realism has 3 primary rules:
1. The world is VERY normal most of the time.
2. Magical moments go more-or-less unexplained.
3. Characters in the story remain mostly unfazed by the magic.
Usually the moments of magic in these stories is kept subtle (often disguised as drug trips or dreams) to maintain the authenticity of the world's mostly ordinary elements. Scott Pilgrim meanwhile has characters summoning demons or getting sucked into movies while STILL maintaining its grounded centre. That isn't easy!
ONE misstep is all it takes for everything to implode. The magical elements must follow an internal consistency, otherwise it all feels random and robs the realistic elements of their weight. Yet simultaneously if you ever directly explain/address how the magical elements actually work, you ground them in a way that makes them a permanent part of what's supposed to feel like a realistic world.
There's a whole book that I love because it's just magical realism called 100 Years of Solitude.
A very slept on book in the anglo world, but great at this.
I like how the videostore owner was just okay with them trashing and wrecking the place
God i just cant get over this animation i love it so much
Literally my favourite episode!
This fight scene in this anime and on the live action movie were so iconic!
Does anyone else think Roxie looks like Himiko Toga when she’s wearing that mask? (And yes, I know Scott Pilgrim came out years before My Hero Academia)
_RIGHT?_ I wonder if My Hero was referencing Scott Pilgrim NGL.
I thought that too
@@Bezaliel13I could be wrong, but I think Toga's mask is a reference to Bane from Batman.
@@JoseRodriguez-ik8gn
K, but what about *everything* else? jk
i wonder if deku go up against the seven evil ex-boyfriends@@Bezaliel13
GOD THE VOICE ACTING IS AMAZING
Missed opportunity to say the iconic quote of “COME AT ME YOU HALFS-BIAN” but still a good fight haha
This scene alone made this my favourite Scott Pilgrim media, beats even the comics for me tbh
Best fight in terms of story and themes 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶⛩️💮👘🏯🪷🗾🦖🤤
nothing better than a long drawn-out thoughtful fight scene
1:28 I love how they keep referencing the movie in both big and small ways
Mae Whitman is having so much fun here
This show is my favourite Scott Pilgrim thing.
Ramona's face at 1:27 is so cute...
1:20 she really did a cat face in that little moment 😂🤣
Isn't that staircase at 1:12 from Everything Everywhere All At Once ?
That’s what I was thinking!
Shockingly, staircases match the design of the building they're in, and this is a very common design. Also, this is a different design than the one in EEAAO
i was thinking about Fight Club
I love this series
amazing dub skills from mae whitman 😍
Holliw hawkes: They're ruining my movie *sighs* im taking my 15
This is probably my favorite fight in the show
Well there's only like 3 of them
@@Grape_Soda482there is more than 3
Imagine if all you needed to do to get in the movies was have a shelf of DVDs fall on you.
My favourite episode!
For some reason I never realized back then that Rory’s actress is the same Mae Whitman that voiced Katara, 2012 April O Neil, Stephanie Brown and Amity. What a talent. Fun fact, her mother is Pat Musick, the voice actress of the 1980s April O Neil!
Don’t forget Rose
I guess Amity is a patata picante now...
My Question Is Where The Fuck Did Roxie’s Blood Go
Wasn't it obvious the water washed it away
Oh im stupid 😭😭😭
Kim: *sighs* Yeah she getting her ass kicked I'd may as well help 1:18 ZA WORLDO
The way Ramona dumped Roxie and Lucas made me wonder why anybody would like her. Lucas, the most chillest person in the series got cheated on and Roxy just got dumped by Ramona out of nowhere, like what the hell, Fucking Envy was more likable. Im so glad the anime fixed Ramona and made her realize her mistakes
1:16 - 1:25 favourite part.
Roxie- That's cheap
WHO PUT DOOMED TOXIC YURI IN MY ANIME 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 not complaining
