![]() Meanwhile, Barbara is taking inventory of the late William Zarick/The Wizard’s belongings when Richard Swift literally emerges from the shadows, claiming that some assistant directed him to the room, and he figured he could help. On their way home from summer school, Courtney and Yolanda happen upon Mike and discover his newly discovered power. Later, Mike sees his bullies stealing cookies from a local Girl Scout, so he wishes that they would stop - and Thunderbolt rains down STOP sign after STOP sign in the lads’ path, until they scamper away in terror. But as with many a Monkey’s Paw-type device, lazily phrased wishes can backfire, as Mike quickly and repeatedly learns. The next day during his paper route, Mike is presented with hint after hint to say the words “So Cool” - and once he finally does, Thunderbolt (voiced by Jim Gaffigan) emerges from the pen and introduces himself as Mike’s “new best friend.” Thunderbolt explains his ties to Johnny Thunder and the OG JSA, and his ability to grant (almost!) any wish. Afterward, while lamenting both his exclusion from the JSA fun and his bullied paperboy fate, Mike mutters, “I wish I could be a superhero” - and we see the pink pen twinkle in his pocket. Upon returning home, Mike gets a phone call about a new subscriber, and when in need of a pen, he unwittingly grabs Thunderbolt from Courtney’s pencil cup. Mike is slogging through another run of his paper route, where he apparently gets bullied on the daily by a pack of punks with bully-type nicknames. But before the sidekicks could kick back with some eggnog, Ted Grant/Wildcat arrived to recruit Johnny, but not Pat, for the Big Show. This week’s cold open flashed back to Christmas Day 2010, where both Pat/Stripesy and Johnny Thunder (played by Ethan Embry) - beholder of Thunderbolt, which is “more powerful than Green Lantern, Flash, all of ’em combined” - had been benched while the rest of the JSA took on the ISA. This week on DC’s Stargirl, Mike believed he had the “write stuff” to join the JSA, just as the team confronted Richard Swift about his shady agenda. ![]() So grats Hikaru that you recovered so quickly and improved a lot, alot is his work but he also got a lot of support and had the time, which Daigo didn't, as he has to juggle two to three different jobs.2021 in Review: Best Couples, Most Overdue Breakup, Wasted Guest Stars, Wildest Fight, Worst Parents and More Yeah, anime conventions, so that the kids are the focus, but compared to the other clubs they fought against, Fuurin Middle is operating with no support, meanwhile the other clubs have excellent conditions. What they did was assigning the most disinterested teacher to supervise the club. Meanwhile Daigo is juggling player, coaching and captain duties all by himself, as his school can't be arsed to do something after their initial effort to gather new players, like finding a new coach or more players. But Hikaru has a top notch team, a top coach, the team has an assistant coach, older, established players, probably several managers who take care of all the clean up/organising etc. It's possible that Daigo hasn't improved as much as Hikaru, comparing them as players. We haven't seen how Daigo measures up to Hikaru as the latter pulled off his mind game as soon as they met. Even though it doesn’t seem to have any malice behind it (he isn’t presented as overly evil or anything), still a dick move. I hope Daigo confronts him about it.Īlso I was giving the coach the benefit of the doubt last week, but it does look like he just switched teams to coach his sons without saying anything to the players he recruited to play for him. ![]() Obviously Hikaru doesn’t know everything that’s happened, so it’s easy to see why he thinks what he does, but again he was being such a douche about it (way more than Toshi ever was to Goro imo). He shouldered the responsibility of rebuilding the Fuurin team after the scandal and pushed this team way further than anyone else on the team wanted to go. He probably went through hell coming back from his injury and he’s better than Daigo and starting for a top baseball team.īut it isn’t like Daigo isn’t serious about baseball or just made a team so he can get a bunch of girlfriends. I think Hikaru is right about Daigo to a degree, even if he was a huge dick about it (saying “just joking” after his home run - cmon man).ĭaigo hasn’t improved as much as he probably should have, especially from Hikaru’s perspective.
