I always thought that kid WAS a boy ^^; .

Good, at least I'm not alone in that...

I have a love/hate realtionahip with this ep.

I don't like how they toned down Manta's fear of Faust and replaced it with all that mother crap. His mother is alive, dammit!

Other thoughts:

Was Manta in a high chair? XD XD XD XD

His little kick off the counter was cute!

It was sweet the way he was so concerned about that woman, um, Mia?

Manta licking ice cream is ADORABLE!

They made Manta's dream seem like he was afraid of Faust hurting Mia and not him. Didn't like that!

He was a bit hard on Faust, though.

They runied the crying at night scene.

AWWW, I just wanna hug sad Manta!

Oh dear, 90% of this post is me ranting about how adorable Manta is. ^_^;

-In the dub: Potato chips= Soy chips. Sugar Crunch=Bran Flakes and Cookies=Wheat Crackers AND were ingredients for soup? I'm the only who noticed that aren't I? I believe that was no Manta talking in the original.

That was a joke. He was supposedly going by Anna's shopping list, but he was interpreting the items very loosely, allowing him to buy the groceries that *he* wanted. She obviously wasn't pleased because at the end of the episode he was buying the right items.

Finally! I've wanted to see this episode since a friend of mine told me Manta and Faust went out for ice cream! X3

Alrighty, time to ramble...

This was a great episode for character developement, in my opinion, especially on Faust's end.

The shopping scenes were pretty cute, I laughed a bit at poor 'Morty', who kind of had to struggle in order to be seen over the check-out counter.^^;;

Faust was very sweet. I liked how he was quick to help 'Miya' (?) after she collapsed on the bench. Even though, this episode was pretty focused on him, he didn't really speak much (which isn't a bad thing, really)... I'm very glad he wasn't bombarded with unecessary, '4Kids filler' dialogue; I notice they do that to Manta alot.

After the fight is over, and the boy/girl hugs Faust... that scene just grabbed at my heart and squeezed it. :]

Also, I don't know what it was, but Faust's English VA, just sounded so right for this episode...

... Does anyone agree with me? Or am I completely alone on this? ^^;;

Since the dub doesn't air in my area 'till Sunday, I haven't seen the dub yet.

BUT! I did watch the original tonight and I deffinetly think that kid is a boy. He's wearing boys clothes! (male ancient-Greek clothing that is.)

Just a couple of thoughts... (dub)

Near the end, Faust said "I know a family doctor in *blank* that will be able to help you" or something like that, where did he say, and shouldnt he be able to cure her? -_-

Also, the greatest lines of the dub were spoken in this episode.

Insanse guy1: "TABLE!!!!!!!!"

Insande guy2: "CHAAAAAIR!!!!"

I also liked all the focus on Faust, he is such a cool character, I liked his little conversation with Manta at the end. It actually had me wondering if Faust really ment "I seem to get that alot..." in a questioning way, or if he was just sorta playing with Manta's mind, knowing full well he is percieved as creepy.

The dub is definately not vague, He says "I can't remember my mom much but I think she looked sorta like her". Thats not 'I've been away from home for a month' thats 'I was 2 when my Mom Left/Died' talk.

Ok, well, obviously I don't pay enough attention to these things. ^-^;; Sorry. My attention tends to wander when it's just Morty on screen... I don't usually find the little guy too interesting.

[NewBee]

XDD The insane asylum guys cracked me up!

I didn't like Maia...>_>

[Stupid]

4Kids killed Manta's mom. First, they forced Ren's uncle to have kids with his sister, then they commited murder. What next? ;D

I thought he might be doing that, because home made soup isn't anything like the pot of instant noodles he put in.

I guess Anna must have had a 'word' with him behind the scenes of this Ep as he finally got the exact list at the end ;D

[YohWhatsUp]

this ep had such cute scenes it in and it was one of the best episodes in my opion even if they did kill Morty's mum.(The unlogic of 4kids)I love morty and faust conversation about Faust being creepy,it made me laugh.
And the insane guys.Lol!!Best bit defo

First-- If 4kids messes this episode up, I WILL cry.

*CRIES*

[darkkage13]

all of us have to remember, in 4kids world, Manta "Morty's" mom was never killed...she was just "destroyed"
