Blog:False Charge (Power Battle Watch Car)



False Charge is an episode from the first season of the South Korean CGI animated series, Power Battle Watch Car, created by SAMG Animation (the animation studio behind Miraculous Ladybug), who shares some comparison with Pokémon. This is listed as the 20th episode.

Synopsis
Mari was accused by his friends and his brother for attacking Sona, Ari's Watch Car, and she knows about another Watch Car who spits toxic liquid to any Watch Car.

Why It Is A False Charge

 * 1) To get the elephant out of the room, the main characters blame Mari from attacking Sona (with little to not evidence ), despite she never did it, they do not believe her, and made her have a emotional breakdown. This scene is surprisingly darker for an kids' show, even if this show had some darker moments or episodes.
 * 2) The main characters (except Roy, who isn't heartless) are very unlikable, during the first scene, they blame Mari for a crime she didn't commit, like she is a villain or an anti-hero character, despite Mari (while annoying and rude), it's more like an heroine or civilian, even his brother blame her instead defend her.
 * Ari, who fought before with Mari, also, she asked her who can attack Sona like that. Do you forget that there are villains who attack people during 19 episodes?
 * Jino explains to Mari that only cowards attacks people in his back, like she is an villain or an anti-heroine, what is not much sense because she is not coward.
 * Maru is the worst of all. He blames her sister instead of defending her, he never believed her and even hates her by his acts. Even he tells Mari that he won't watch her ever again, he doesn't need an sister like her after Mari told him she really hates him, she hates him too deep. No joke, this really happens in the episode. In a KIDS' SHOW.

3. Mari gets the worst torture in almost all the episode, she is blamed for an crime what she never commited and almost suffers an attack by that evil team.

4. Hypocrisy: Maru told the villains that they will pay by blaming his sister, while the latter blamed his own sister.

5. The battle agaisnt the evil Watch Car doesn't take too time, like 1 or 2 minutes.

6. The villain doesn't act very well when the team attacks his Watch Car.

7. Talking again about the first scene, the characters do not show any compassion or some logic when they judge Mari. The kids can get the wrong message about judging people without any proof or evidence, and accussing somebody who never did it, even their own friends and family.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1)  The rest of the episode after the 3 minutes are pretty passable.
 * 2) The characters redeemed themeselves after know Mari is innocent, and apologizes with her.
 * 3) Decent ending: The villains, once again, are defeated, and the team apologizes to Mari for blaming her.
 * 4) The action scenes are still great.
 * 5) The voice acting in any dub still is ok, even fits very well with the first scene.
 * 6) The toxic liquid in Sona, is the only clue of Mari being "guilty", is understandable, because the liquid have the same color of Tinkie (Mari's Watch Car), with the only difference is that Tinkie's liquid isn't toxic.
