Review: A real girl power
episode from beginning to end that anyone can enjoy. It is very well
scripted, especially the fact that Joker is not really doing anything
bad in this case, but is just trying to cope without Harley. Most of
Harley's role was to tag along and be pitiful though whereas Ivy was the
confident one. She had most of the good lines, but Harley got in the
last line in the Bazooka scene all right!
The animation wasn't too special. Joker looked kind of strange at times,
and Ivy was a bit shorter and had a different looking face than normal.
This is just due to a change in the animation company though, not a
change in character design.
