Get Schwifty With Me: Why Episode 7 of *Rick and Morty* Season 5 Still Slaps!
Okay, fam, let's talk *Rick and Morty*. Remember season 5, episode 7? It's called "Gotron Jerrysis Rickvangelion" and it's a wild ride. Even if you've seen it a million times, it's worth revisiting for pure, unadulterated chaos.
This episode is all about collecting. Forget stamps or coins, Rick and Morty are after giant, transforming robot lions. Think Voltron, but with a healthy dose of existential dread and dysfunctional family dynamics.
Robot Lions and Family Bonding (Sort Of)
The whole thing kicks off when Rick discovers Gotron Ferral Devices. These aren't your grandma's collectables. They're pieces of a giant robot that Rick, naturally, becomes obsessed with.
But here's the twist! The family gets involved. Jerry, bless his heart, even manages to stumble upon one. This leads to some... interesting teamwork (and a lot of Jerry getting yelled at, because, well, it's Jerry).
Imagine trying to assemble IKEA furniture, but the instructions are written in a language you don't understand, and your family is constantly arguing about the best way to do it. That's basically this episode.
Meta-Commentary and Wacky Antics
What makes "Gotron Jerrysis Rickvangelion" so great? It's not just the giant robots. It's the meta-commentary.
The show pokes fun at collector culture and the whole "gotta catch 'em all" mentality. It's like *Rick and Morty* are saying, "Hey, we know this is ridiculous, but aren't you entertained?" And the answer is a resounding YES!
Plus, you've got the classic *Rick and Morty* humor. Expect absurd situations, inappropriate jokes, and enough sci-fi jargon to make your head spin. Morty's desperate attempts to impress Jessica? Priceless!
Why It's Still Rewatchable
Even though season 5 had its ups and downs, this episode stands out. It's a concentrated dose of everything that makes *Rick and Morty* great.
It's got action, humor, and even a little bit of heart (buried deep, deep down). The animation is top-notch, and the voice acting is superb. Every line delivery is just perfect.
The ending is a total mind-bender, leaving you questioning everything you thought you knew about the characters. And isn't that what *Rick and Morty* is all about?
So, Should You Watch It (Again)?
Absolutely! If you need a good laugh or just want to escape reality for 22 minutes, "Gotron Jerrysis Rickvangelion" is the perfect choice. Grab some Szechuan sauce (or your condiment of choice), settle in, and prepare to get schwifty.
Don't overthink it, just enjoy the ride. Because in the grand scheme of the multiverse, does anything really matter? Wubba Lubba Dub-Dub!
Seriously, though, go watch it. Even if you remember the plot, there are always little details you missed the first time around. Plus, it's a great excuse to avoid doing chores.
Rick: "Morty, we gotta collect those Gotron Ferral Devices!"
Think of it as an investment in your happiness. A small price to pay for a guaranteed good time. You won't regret it. Unless you hate fun. In which case, why are you even reading this?
And hey, if you don't like it, blame Rick. He's probably the one who programmed your brain to dislike it in the first place. That's just the kind of guy he is.
So, what are you waiting for? Go forth and binge! The multiverse awaits!
Remember to share your favorite moments! What was your favorite Gotron Lion? Which Jerry moment made you cringe the most? Let's discuss!
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go watch it again myself. Gotta make sure I didn't miss any hidden easter eggs. You never know what those crazy creators at *Rick and Morty* are going to sneak in.
Happy watching, and may your adventures be as wild and unpredictable as Rick Sanchez himself!
And remember, keep the portal gun handy, just in case things get too boring. You never know where you might end up!
