Well, yes, i saw that coming. Mostly though, they are repeating the events detailed out in The New Titans in the 1980s with regard to Blood and Slade, only replacing the Titans with Arrow-relevant characters for the interactions and throwing in villains and some twists from that era. It was a great era tho.... Anyways, Ep 10 did a few good things..... Staved off that Roy-Thea throw-down, built up Blood and kept the overall story coherent. Kudos for mentioning The Movement. H.I.V.E., The Movement, Ivo, Nyassa Al Ghul, Various villains from the DCU.... Arrow seems to be the best adaptation of the DCU by far...................

Ep 11 was a bit disappointing in the sense that all it did was reset the status quo for the next 10 episodes. It had many fine moments but it wasnt as good as i was expecting.

I may have whined NO, NooooOooo, NOOOOooo, during the last minute of the episode!
Spoiler:
Slade is still hot in a suit, niiiiice!
I loved the fight sequences, it was beautiful!
Stephen Amell was great, now he knows about Moira, but poor Thea, she's going to be so, so confused about it, everyone's keeping secrets around her, I wish she could have one though, we need more on Thea! ;)
I loved last week's episode by the way, it was one of the best so far, the reveal was beautifully done :D

He probably fell in love with her over time. The three of them were together in a jungle for a year together, yes?? Could be possible.... Anyways, the ending was nice. I promise, kid...

There were several little moments throughout that we got to glimpse that Slade was envious of how close Oliver had gotten with Shadow. After what happened happened so suddenly, he felt angered that the one woman he actually cared about and trusted on the island was suddenly gone before he had time to tell her how he felt. When you couple all that with the effects of the Mirakuru, I found that character arc to not be very problematic.

Also keep in mind that we actually don't get to see everything from Slade's perspective--we don't really know what changed for him and when. We are looking at things from Oliver's perspective and are most frequently in his headspace.

Well, At least the Canary was able to say "Will it make the slightest difference whether we are together or not??". It was another good episode, the kind this show keeps churning out.

Still great, no signs of letting up. And, of course...
Spoiler:
The Deathstroke costume is practical, menacing, and entirely awesome all at the same time. Also, the Suicide Squad was handled really organically and made the Deadshot character even cooler. Also gave Diggle some nice room for growth too.
I really like that the show's supporting cast is so strong that Oliver doesn't even really have to do anything pivotal for an entire episode to work based on the outside characters. Excellent writing.
