Lyra: Look, all I’m trying to say is that Hamtaro was the best cartoon ever made-I’m not trying to turn this into some big debate. Mostly because it’s not debatable.
Blossomforth: How can you even say that in a universe where Cowboy Bebop exists?!
Lyra: Nothing wrong with the show, it just wasn’t Hamtaro. Not every show can reach that kind of potential.
Blossomforth: This is absurd! We Bare Bears is better than Hamtaro!
Lyra: Now now, let’s not say things we can’t take back.

Blossomforth: Ugh… Raindrops, bring us back to earth here.

Raindrops: Heh heh. Well, I really liked uh… KND?
Blossomforth: Are you kidding me?!
Lyra: Hmm. You liked how it’s world was much deeper than it appeared at first.

Raindrops: Yeah! Like My Little Human and Steven Universe!
Blossomforth: But it was just made up as they went along; you could tell that in season 1! At least Steven Universe did it right!
Lyra: Steven Universe did the same thing. Over half of the first season was just monster-of-the-week villain chasing. It’s a simple concept to get you started and acquainted with the characters before things get complicated.
Blossomforth: But the creators had things in motion even back then!
Lyra: But they weren’t realized until later in order to create self-contained episodes. Kids Next Door might not have done that as well, but it wasn’t supposed to. It was primarily comedy/action. Steven Universe is comedy/action/drama. If it was anything less than what it was it’d be terrible.

Bon-Bon: Swords down, fillies. I brought cookies. Still having your nerd-debate?

Lyra: What was your favorite cartoon, Bon-Bon?

Bon-Bon: Secret of NIHM.

Lyra: Ah… That’s a good one.
Blossomforth: That IS a good one.
Raindrops: I’ve never heard of it.
