It&#8217;s also mirrored on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newgrounds.com\/portal\/view\/321776\">Newgrounds<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Though this episode was great and the ending being completely unexpected (unless you rewatch the beginning of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newgrounds.com\/portal\/view.php?id=107784\">Chapter 1<\/a>), I think I still liked Chapter 2 the most. It&#8217;s the same reasoning I like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?link_code=ur2&#038;tag=krunk4everblog-20&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fproduct%2FB00009TB5G\">The Two Towers<\/a> better than <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?link_code=ur2&#038;tag=krunk4everblog-20&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fproduct%2FB000634DCW\">The Return of the King<\/a>. Having a big pack of enemy charge into a fortress is always awesome. The soundtrack on that chapter was also better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spoilers<\/strong>: (<a id=\"mariobrosflash5Tog\" href=\"javascript:toggle('mariobrosflash5');\">Show<\/a>)<\/p>\n<blockquote id=\"mariobrosflash5\" style=\"display:none\"><p>So as I mentioned, the ending was completely unexpected (unless you remember the beginning of chapter 1). It wasn&#8217;t bad, just unexpected. In fact it felt fresh that it didn&#8217;t follow the good guys always win and you knew he had planned this all out since the beginning (refer back to beginning of chapter 1 if you don&#8217;t remember).<\/p>\n<p>When Mario remembered about the secret garden, I had thought he&#8217;d find the star for invincibility, but the flower?!?! Guess I just don&#8217;t see how powerful the flower is. And why did he just take one? He could&#8217;ve used one and kept another as spare.<\/p>\n<p>When the princess dies, I couldn&#8217;t see why she didn&#8217;t say anything. She just sort of reached out her hand. I was expecting either &#8220;Save me Mario.&#8221; or &#8220;Mario, you need to live, for those of us who have died.&#8221; BUt nope, just slowly sink into the lava.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s finally out!
