It took me a minute to acclimate to the tone of the Flash here (what’s all this? sprites? wizards? fraymotifs?). But after settling in, what I took away was just how fun this part is. No serious drama yet: just a crazy kid-driven melee that bounces around from spastic fight to spastic fight at 168 beats per minute.

I like the medley transitions, especially. The setup for Roxy’s Shoryuken attack on the Condesce. The arena-rock intro to Jake’s fight. The power-of-blue-cookies healing interlude. And, most of all, Dad: Enter the Fray. All of these things happen.
