- Episode 6: Unfriendly Trial
The final episode of the first saga, which consisted of the future to reoccurring characters. Despite the actions occurred in the episodes above there have been some pros and cons about the first saga. Most notably was the build up of Joshua and how he was represented as a powerful force to not be messed with. In a Q&A James Evans did answer that:
- "I felt the first two episodes were more than enough to build up the kind of character he was but upon reflection and creating more and more threats, Joshua would eventually be seen as a low tier villain. Which he really isn't, just a perfect example of potential that at this time is not fully tapped."
The controversy based on the abilities of certain characters and the power router came into play but seeing as how it is only the first season, nothing more can really be added onto there at the time being.
Saga 2: Molten Chronicles
While radically different from the previous saga, this saga is far more focused on the connection between Peter and James. Also to give a face on the Kid Army as they now are beginning to play a much bigger role in the Kid Wars story line after their introduction in Episode 4.
While the previous Saga mostly focused on the Droid Empire and friends becoming enemies, this Saga was confirmed for actually targeting when even the side of good always has a hint of darkness within it's walls.
