-END OF ACT 6-

Holy shit........ I'm here. The hype moments........ The aura........ It's all here........

-END OF ACT 6 ACT 6 INTERMISSION 5-
Ohh fuck, here we are. This intermission contains multitudes. Moments within were frustrating, some were satisfying, and others were just more of the same old shenanigans that this comic loves to pull so much. I can't believe it's almost over.

Oh my god I've read almost 1,000 pages of this today alone and I'm not stopping either

-END OF ACT 6 ACT 6 ACT 3 & INTERMISSION 3-

Holy shit, those were fucking awesome!? A6A6A3 was a really funny detour that caught me super off guard, and the ensuing A6A6I3 was a real treat and surprise, acting as the grizzly follow-up to A6A6I2's continuously building tension. I bet if you haven't read any of this all the act and intermission names sound pretty stupid, but that's because they are! :D

This section reinforces my past criticisms because everything happening here is fun, but I wish less characters had off-screen development prior to this, primarily Terezi, Rose & Aranea. Lots of cool action moments and big payoffs to past drama throughout this act, and it again reminded me of a big anime climax with everyone coming together in an increasingly chaotic fashion.

Okay, that was similarly short to the first act of this kind but this one introduced an element that really helped improve it over the first. Pretty interesting idea, I wonder if it will have real ramifications or just be a funny haha story idea.

So, in terms of big plot moves I'm not a fan of this intermission at all. I do not gaf about the empress or her plans and seeing characters be evil under her control doesn't do it for me. However, I love the presentation here, especially when characters expand beyond the panel. I'm also liked the character interactions here, with highlights being John & Roxy or Jade & Dave.

Okay, that was alright. A funny idea but the execution was kinda whatever. It was also really short, but I assume that we will be returning to this between all the intermissions.

-END OF ACT 6 INTERMISSION 5-

Uhh, okay! I didn't love all the character choices on the meteor, but this intermission was alright overall. I'm most interested in John's little arm adventures and what those could mean going forward, as well as seeing everyone all together for the first time!!! Certainly nothing nefarious or stupid will happen! :D

Okay! A lot of emotional wrap-ups there, seems like the first leg of each Alpha Kid's arc is pretty much finished. The ending of the act was crazy, with all the plot beats coming to a boil pretty much at once. Definitely excited to see where Act 6 goes from here, but I'm hoping to get one more intermission that takes place during the timeskip before we move fully into the combined session.
