return to thundera comment archive Average Fan Rating = 5 out of 5 stars Michael Cartwtright Indiana 10:50pm on Sunday, March 23rd, 2014 Though there may have been a few flaws, this episode speaks volumes, especially on a father and son level. I am currently going through a divorce. Everyday, I long to see my four year old son, cherishing every moment I have with him. When my time of life is through, I want to leave a lasting impression on him, so he would again desire for us to see each other again, that "we meet again somewhere in time." So fathers, don't let divorce come between you and your children. If it does, do all you can to keep your bond strong with your kids. I am not going to lose my boy entirely, for he is all I have! Anonymous Location unknown 9:50pm on Saturday, June 16th, 2012 My guess is, the writers forgot to add a brief scene where the kittens should flee and seek shelter, taking account their young age is too early for them to be meeting the threat of certain destruction. 16.03.2006, 15:38 PKELL Remember the early days of the show when The Mutants were actually somewhat of a threat? The Warbot is probably the closest The Mutants have ever come to defeating The Thundercats. That is not the only good thing about this episode. Lion-O gets sent back in time to Thundera via The Time Capsule and we get a look back into his childhood. We finally meet his dad, thus answering the question of whether or not Jaga was his father. This is only one of two times that we get to see Claudia, and he comes across as the perfect loving father figure, and him being blind makes him seem even more innocent to the audience. This was a very good episode. 08.05.2006, 22:16 Lyonnarra Okay, did anyone else get the little fact that Lion-O couldn't remember Thundera, but yet he remembered Kano. Didn't anyone else figure that the home would be more in his memory than his pet? Yes, I caught the hint about the sword too! I like the episode because we do see more of Thundera and we do get to meet his father Claudis. One of these days we'll see someone mention Lion-O's mother's name! 31.10.2006, 15:42 Trickle They recognise the sword, but say nothing about his claims of the eye of Thundera so I dont think it conflicts with Tygras statements in the original episode 08.02.2007, 22:23 leppardra I love this story for the reasons stated above. It's no surprise that Lion-O remembered Kano more than Thundera itself; royal children lead a very sheltered life, so young Lion-O probably didn't get out much among the Thunderians he would one day rule and he maybe observed them from a Cats' Lair window. He doubtless didn't travel the Thunderian countryside with his father Claudus, which also explains why he had no memory of Thundera other than of the planet's main city. It makes sense. 08.02.2007, 22:29 leppardra There's another reason why I love "Return to Thundera". Lion-O is rendered in such a way that he's at his handsomest. Muscular yet sleek, which is how I like him to look. In other stories he's so muscle-bound he looks like he can barely move, and that's a shame. 12.03.2007, 21:29 leppardra But there's a story glitch. WilyKat and WilyKit are with the other Cats in the main control room when the Warbot first attacks the Lair. When the creature attacks again and again, the Kittens have vanished and are not seen for the rest of the story. Why they disappeared is not explained. 13.03.2007, 09:19 Purrsia Indeed there is a kitten glitch. As I pointed out in the review: "By the way, I have no idea what happened to the Thunderkittens...they were there in the previous scenes but are nowhere to be seen for the rest of the ep...odd." ;) 19.05.2007, 13:06 Caswin Wow. That ruled on so many levels. (But I have to ask... what is up with that spike on the Warbot?) t 26.07.2008, 14:48 Zagdil This is another episode that makes me wonder what the feline races are anyway... the guards looked like lions or pumas. But every Thunderian look much more like a cat than the noble Thundercats themselves. Even Pummra aka MummRa looks more like a cat than them... confusing..
