English Dub Review: Delico’s Nursery “A Small Adventure”

Overview:

Clara and the others are baffled by young Theodore, who is showing signs of entering his cocoon phase at such an early age. Meanwhile, the other children take Ul for a little adventure outside the manor.

Our Take:

Taking Ul “for a little adventure” is one of the biggest understatement I’ve seen. Typically, when someone says they’re going to “get rid” of someone it doesn’t mean anything good. I understand Raphael is upset and jealous with all the attention Ul is getting from his father but I thought we would see him start to be a better big brother. Luckily, all the other kids followed him to make sure he didn’t do anything he’d regret. If you remember how the last episode ended we got a scene of the children being gone and everyone freaking out. It’s nice to know that they weren’t kidnapped or anything and they just ran off.

We finally got some explanation as to what was going on with Theodore. The explanation was a little boring to me but it gave us some lore on the vampires of this world so that was nice. When a vampire starts to enter their “cocoon phase” it’s possible for them to have hallucinations. Seeing a bunch of stuffed animals talking to you seems a bit much for that but maybe there will end up being more to it. This was a decent episode but I’m hoping we get a little more soon.
