Review: Neon Konbini “Walko”
Overview
Walko
A random segment in the opening and intercut between random sketches following the adventures of a shirtless character who goes on an ongoing journey that leads a string of unexpected choices…
Score
6/10
“Post Apocolypse”
What starts out as a normal day to deliver mail for a cheerful telegram lady, turns into a drag-race to make sure the mail she’s sending out isn’t stolen by Mad Max-style marauders on bikes…
Score
6/10
“Human Beans – 7 Layer Dip”
An invitation to a friend’s party becomes progressively awkward and uncomfortable when talking bean people are invited to it and what’s in the titular “7 layer dip”?…
Score
6.5/10
“Game Over Drinker: Contra”
Much like the last episode involving a “Gameboy Advance Hamtaro game“. This one is also structured like a “Drunk History” episode only it’s talking about the balls-bustlingly hard Konami run & gun classic.
Score
7.5/10
S.T.A.R. Busters Space Traffic
Another sketch involving classic ’60-’70s Anime footage voiced over by the RT cast with funny voiceovers and scenarios.
Score
6.5/10
“Hero High Episode 2”
The Zelda Highschool Parody sketch continues in this episode as “Z” learns to make new friends during a school assembly.
6 out of 10
RWBY Chibi: “True Blue Friends”.
A short but wholesome segment where Coco Adel goes to check up on Velvet Scarlatina who’s feeling blue…
8 out of 10
Our Take
As a whole, these were fun and decent segments/sketches. Though I’m left wondering what direction this “Walko” sketch will take and whether or not any of these new ongoing shorts (with the exception of RWBY: Chibi) will further continue as its own series. Hopefully, this show will continue for me to find out as I think “Game Over Drinker” might have some comedic potential down the line.
Just cancel this bird already. The chicken is beyond cooked. It's burnt to a crisp.
