All right first things first I wanted to get my final thoughts on Season One done first but real life, and general laziness got in the way, and I want to just go straight to Season Two.
Anyway welcome to another Magic Happy VR Troopers Review, and today we’re looking at Mutant Mutiny written by Michael Ryan, and directed by John Grant Weil.
So we start off with today’s “My dad taught me” moment where Ryan talks about the time his dad taught him about loyalty, and obedience.
We then go to Tao dojo where the Troopers are practicing karate when Tao comes in explaining that his family is having a family reunion in China but a plane ticket costs a thousand dollars.
The Troopers try to think of a way to help, and in comes a guy named Artie who wants them to advertise his own dojo for a thousand dollars.
Meanwhile at Ziktor industries Ziktor is signing a contract that will give him ownership of another building in Crossworld City when he notices green slime on his desk so he transforms into Grimlord, and asks which of his mutants has invaded reality without his permission.
The Troopers are still confused about if they should take Artie’s offer while Toxoid explains that he figured out that the green slime means that Amphibidor a frog like mutant is to blame so two gunbots go to confront Amphibidor who’s busy planning to take over virtual reality.
Grimlord confronts Amphibidor who swears he’s still loyal so Grimlord has him fight another mutant, and Toxoid chooses Dream Master.
Dream Master tries to use his chain but Amphibidor melts into green slime so Dream Master uses electricity but Amphibidor just reforms, and absorbs it so Grimlord orders Amphibidor to destroy the
Troopers.
At the lab Ryan explains the situation to the Professor when a reality break occurs so Ryan calls the other Troopers who are closer but Amphibidor blocks them with his slime.
The Professor explains about Amphibidor, and his plan to take over virtual reality while JB, and Kaitlin decide to take some slime, and analyze it when they see two phone workers who turn out to be Skugs.
First the Skugs, and the Troopers just swing kick each other then JB, and Kaitlin flip some Skugs over, then the Troopers just punch, and kick the Skugs while Kaitlin Kaitlin kicks one into the van, and JB knocks a few into a pole destroying the Skugs.
Ryan sees Amphibidor, and decides to transform, and they both grab at each other but Ryan keeps flipping Amphibidor over.
So Amphibidibor spits acid foam but Ryan dodges, and slices Amphibidor but some of Amphibidor’s foam is in his circuits which at first just makes him angry, and throw Amphibidor again but then his circuits malfunction.
The Professor informs the other Troopers about what’s going on so Kaitlin transforms her car into flight mode but Air Striker attacks while Amphibidor’s foam makes Ryan walk off a cliff.
The other Troopers find Ryan, and take him to the lab to repair him, and analyze the foam while Grimlord orders Amphibidor to bring Ryan’s armor as proof of victory.
At Tao dojo Tao practices karate when Artie shows up with a fruit basket for the Troopers while the Professor has found an antidote to the foam but Amphibidor is back so JB, and Kaitlin transform.
While JB, and Kaitlin go into the Skybase Amphibidor’s foam makes Ryan get up, and go to where Amphibidor is but when Amphibidor grabs Ryan it wakes him up from the trance but Amphibidor keeps grabbing him.
Grimlord orders Cannon Nose, and Balistix to destroy Ryan, and Amphibidor but JB, and Kaitlin destroy them instead, and all it does is give Ryan enough time to throw Amphibidor a bunch of times before destroying him with Lighting Hand..
Then there’s a funny bit where Ryan says Grimlord’s not going to like it when it cuts to Grimlord actually being happy that Amphibidor is destroyed, and that he’ll destroy the Troopers anyway.
At Tao dojo the Troopers are about to explain everything to Tao when they see that Tao worked out a compromise where he does Artie’s advertising while Artie opens his dojo in another city.
Anyway “I miss you dad the end”.
Final Thoughts
Today’s episode was another one of those good but not great ones.
On one hand it feels like how I feel a lot of Season One episodes should have been like.
It has a good message that’s executed well, the a plot, and the b plot tie in well without feeling forced, Kaitlin, and JB are allowed to do stuff even if it only uses a Metalder episode, there’s cool fight scenes, and nothing is cut from the Metalder episode that I would have left in.
On the other hand it’s supposed to be how they start Season Two, and the only thing that shows it is that Kaitlin has different hair now.
The plot is interesting but the Metalder episode they used didn’t allow much, in my opinion the upcoming Knighttime arc, and The Great Brain Robbery do a better job with it.
And sadly it exists solely to use up the last bit of Metalder footage aside from the first half of Quest for Power.
