SK∞: Crazy Rock Jam

*Spoiler warning!*

A simple way to describe this is a re-cap episode with a little bit of *flair*!


Story 6/10 - It was a re-cap of the entire series up till episode 9. It was pretty boring and I skipped through most of the episode, but it did remind me of some things I may have forgotten happened during the series. I love the fact that they didn't only re-cap the episode, but they had Miya and Shadow narrate it, which made it honestly pretty good and funny. But, I would've still preferred a normal episode over this any day. Good for a re-cap episode though. (Also, ... it was WAY better then the TPN re-cap, I don't like comparing shows that are entirely different, but re-cap episodes are a different story, and this one was 2x better then that one. :3)

Art 7/10 - Exactly same as the regular series. Nothing new.

Sounds 6/10 - Again, exactly the same as the regular series. Nothing new here, but I loved the emotions of the "narrators".

Characters/Personalities 7/10 - Same as the regular anime. But, I did really like how we got to saw how Miya and Shadow felt about Reki's absence from the group, they both may not show it. But they do like Reki and think he's a great friend, they miss him dearly and they told us that during this re-cap, which I liked.

Enjoyment/Overall 6/10 - It was a re-cap episode with some flair. It wasn't as boring as I though it would be (It was still pretty boring but ya know what I mean.). And I liked how we got some narration from two great characters. I would've preferred a normal episode, but this was good either way! :3

I was never really a fan of recap episodes. No matter how long it's been since I've seen the previous episodes..they've just kinda been a waste of time, though with the SK8 recap they did it a little different.

It wasn't simply a recap of the episodes; instead they sprinkled in their light-hearted comedy and had Miya and Shadow narrate it through Cherry's board. It was generally entertaining, and fun to see the highlights of each episode up to date. (1-9)

There isn't much to say other than "Yeah, it was pretty decent for a recap episode!"
I mean...the best part about this was the fact that ... it didn't take up an episode spot in the main show, so that's a plus.

I'm alright with waiting another week for the next episode..so maybe that's why I like it just a little more than others might.

Watch it if you want a little bit of entertainment from Miya and Shadow plus a brief recap.
(keep in mind this didn't really go over some things the characters go through.)

The recap wasn't as boring as most recaps I've seen (Like all the recaps in TPN Season 2) It basically just talked about what happened over the 9 episodes. But it isn't a very obnoxious kind of recap where it just sticks all the episodes together with 0 narration. We got narration from two of the characters, which I think is pretty cool.



Story: 6/10 it was a recap so nothing much

Art: 7/10, same as the original, very nice and smooth

Sound: 7/10, same as the original, very clear

... Characters, 10/10, same as the original but they are very lovable

Enjoyment 5/10, it was a recap so there really wasn't anything you can enjoy

Overall its a 6.5/10
