I cannot get over how beautiful Leichter's theme is in this show. I keep listening to it on repeat just because that is one catchy beat.
I can't help but like the Virtual Reality Arc, I honestly think it's a good showcase for Seto Kaiba, despite my overall dislike for the character, and despite finding him easily one of the funniest characters in the show. Why this cognitive dissonance exists for me, I don't know, but I really can't say the same for Barney Stinson who is just abhorrent. But I just think -- Seto Kaiba is so ridiculous and so over the top, that his ego makes it work, because he basically despises anyone who isn't him; whereas Barney Stinson is just -- walking and talking misogyny, TBH.
Am I annoyed that most of the filler arcs become Kaiba-centric? You betcha! But this one works far better than the one that's before the DOMA arc, I think, because this one is a really good fleshing out of the Kaiba history, and well, Noah's great.
