That was when we started to like Shiro, because of that subplot! Before that we were very eye-rolling because he was Mister Perfect With No Flaws, but then shit went DOOOOOWN.

Hahah, see, that was the whole reason we really liked new Alura - she seemed more alien to us, and we both really don't like the whole "aliens are humans with weird foreheads" thing. So we liked that she was completely over the top.

It's so cool to see the different things that work for different people.
