Not unfair to call it that. Yep, I know, MLP does it so much better 90% of the time. =P Slade's takedown ought not to have been quite so clean and easy. A fourth part to the The End saga would've been perfect to dedicate to an all-out battle against the guy.

Raven was pretty much the main reason I watched it for much of the time it was on. She was just so damn awesome, and it was when I really got introduced to Tara Strong, who's a phenomenal actress no matter where you see her. Easily one of her best roles at that. Raven has always been one of my personal favorites and more Teen Titans means more Raven. We need that. :D

Much like everything else in that episode, which remains deeply unpopular to this day. As for myself, Terra's a confusing character. And her basis for betraying the Titans isn't a particularly sound one. She clearly needed help with her powers, was too self-righteous about when the truth came out, found acceptance later, but went Slade's way anyway. She's about as consistent as Courtney ( Yep, I said that O_O ). And that amnesia thing......Just dumb. As for whether I like or hate her.........I want to say I'm, neutral?

I agree. I really want to see the original expanded on and done some justice, tie up loose ends or get us a Starfire arc. Or another Rae arc =P I hope there's a future for the franchise outside of and beyond TTG, which may be the most insincere thing they've ever created.

Oh really? Because that was quite an interesting episode exploring the many dimensions and layers of her persona. Notice how the Raven episodes are usually the most investing?

True that. The show never explains why Blackfire is so hellbent on destroying Starfire, but she's clearly sociopathic. Can't imagine how she ended up that way though. At least Azula has the excuse that she was raised primarily by her father, himself a horrible parent on every level. And if the comics are anything to go by, Azula is actually a tormented soul deep down. Blackfire we've never seen a hint of genuine humanity from.

Slade was absolutely terrifying. And everything a villain should be. No visible superpowers, but clearly he did not need them. And yes, I totally see him pulling a gambit like that on her. Faking his fall into her traps only to snare her in one of his, that's totally what Slade would do. Maybe a bit OP, but me I just appreciated his competence as a villain. Being voiced by Ron Perlman helps, who makes the man absolutely chilling.
