    i gotta give jack his props with his clever plot of sending one of his robots to get the shen gon wu.... though it didnt really matter in the end since he gave it to pandabubba. i love kimiko episodes! her dad is so cool. and arent the little robots just so adorable! oh and kimikos outfit is one of my favorites in the whole series that shes worn. this episode also contained one of my, if not my favorite, showdowns. i think there should be virtual showdowns more often.

Unbeknowst to the Warriors, Kimiko's father brings in Pandabubba as his new business partner, not knowing he's in fact a criminal. Jack finds the Zing Zom-Bone first and brings it to Pandabubba who uses it on the company's workers and Kimiko's father to do his bidding. Can the Warriors stop Pandabubba a second time? Yes. My favorite part of this episode is when we see the xiaolin showdown of Kimiko and Pandabbuba.moreless

    So this time we encounter Kimiko's family. The little bots were so cool, and they clicked so well with the actual versions of themselves! I hope these bots appear every episode. This episode was entertaining with Pandabubba back again. I had not had enough of him last time. Everything was wonderful, the technological advances awesome, and the basic portrayal of Japan was fine too. The second Kimiko episode I truly enjoy, and how I wish I could have a herculehastings-bot too! Three cheers for this episode for being the best in a long time. The conversations were well-written, especially between Kimiko and Mr Tohomiko.moreless

    • Mother Brain The Creature in the final battle has a similarity to Mother Brain the final boss from Super Metroid. Edit
    • Resident Evil
      Although we had heard of Goo Zombies before, this would be the first time we see the game and it takes certain elements from the Resident Evil games. Such as the horde of zombies, the strange mansion, a cheat for an invisible enemy, and the lab in the base of the mansion that houses the main evil creature, which looks like an amalgamation of the Tyrant and Licker from Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2. Edit
    • Title: The Return of Pandabubba
      The title resembles the name of the sixth Star Wars film, Return of the Jedi. Edit
