User blog:Morganaforever/Episode Review: The Diamond of the Day Part 1

It was a beautiful episode. It was nice to see the Crystal Cave and Balinor again! The following scenes are the ones that stole the episode for me:


 * Merlin and Arthur speaking about Merlin's decision to not go in the battle with Arthur


 * Merlin/Morgana confrontation. Finally! Too bad they did not talk about their past very much. It gave me chills near the end, where she laughed.


 * Merlin telling Arthur what do to via telepathy.


 * Merlin/Balinor scene.


 * Morgana and Mordred shooting a meteor together!


 * Morgana creating a second Excalibur.


 * The battle! It is weird though how Morgana just stood on a cliff like a boss while everyone else was fighting!


 * Morgana trapping Merlin in the Crystal Cave, making true one of the old legends!

Things I did not like about the episode:


 * The tavern scene. Really unnecessary.


 * Morgana and Merlin NOT fighting. Everyone expected a fight between the two for ages, and now it'll never happen.


 * We got no clear image from the crystal cave visions(but my eye caught a series 3 Morgana somewhere...is it just me?)


 * Merlin being scared of the Saxons and cowering in fear, letting only Gwaine fight. Come on Merlin, take a sword and fight. Morgana did the same againist the knights of Camelot when you did that to her...

That's all! The structure of the review is different, because I know everyone watched the episode and I don't see why I should add the full summary.

All in all, it was a VERY epic episode!!! I give it a 10/10!

Did you like this episode? Yes, I loved it. It was good. Mediocre. Boring!

How do you feel about next episode? Merlin reveals his magic! Morgana and Gwen survive(but they look old, tired, depressed....) and that's that. What do you think?
