This is supposed to be an action adventure cartoon super hero series not a damn soap opera. I dont care about mark moving in to college, to watch him awkwardly bang his gf or >!Debbie going to therapy!<. I saw the writers of young justice do the same shit to that show and it killed the series, ffs i wish people who wanted to write soaps would just write soaps and stop trying to bring these elements into everything else.
You can have slower moments in shows like this but they need to be earnt and they need to be the exception, this episode felt like 80% slice of life filler.
Most super hero stories feature this dynamic. Super powered brawls and saving the world on the other side, real life drama with school, work, & relationships on the other, and how they interact with and effect each other.
