I give it a 7 die to the cool references. The videogame being in the shape of a Sega Genesis with the cartridge having the same artwork of the X-Men game was perfect, but it was spoiled by calling it "Motendo?. What? Should be Monesis. Writers are clueless to the amateur mistake they made. Looks like they are zoomer phonies trying to write 90s inspired story and not doing their homework. The videogame inspired soundtrack was on point. Roberto's Portuguese lines were cheesy and cringe as hell. No Brazilian would say al those lines in succession like that. He sounded like an alien trying to pass as a human. Less cringe character on this episode was Mojo, and that's saying a lot. Also it wasn't clear what Spiral was up to. Is she back with Mojo, was she saboiting the game? Not a clue. Also it was really predictable they were going to kiss at the end, since they made sure to let us know Jubilee was now 18. Heaven forbid a teenager kissing someone, tight Hollywood? Anyways "Days of Future Past" artwork almost made all this go away and earned a grade of 7 for me. That was the best part of the episode. Without that my rate would go to somewhere near 4.
