It was confirmed some weeks ago that they are already in the middle of writing season 6, which means season 5 is already completed, as a script at least
Excellent summation. I agree with you and so does my wife.
I dunno if Rick and Morty need an ongoing long story arc? Pretty much all of the Season 1 episodes can be watched in any order and you want miss out anything if you hadn't seen an episode. Season 2 and Season 3 dabbled with it to some mixed results (You get your greats and your not so greats in the process) and this Season seemed to be on a active mission to try and stop Ongoing arcs espicially with the Story Train episode.
I dunno what would be better for Rick and Morty, to go with a Simpson style story of the week approach, or to have long changing arcs that shake up character dynamics over time. I think an argument could be made in favour for both. Rick and Morty just needs to decide on one.

I really don't think they need to choose. They seem fine doing whatever sounds good to them in the writing room. Which is mostly one off adventures, which is for the best. But every so often they think of an idea that has to do with the continuity, and if they like it they go with it. Just like the season finale or the Ricklantis Mixup
That's what it seems like they are doing, and I think that's the best way. There is no reason to put any restrictions on their writing process. Especially given the themes and concepts of the show.
Lmao, that's good. I hope the rest of that episode delivers.
Is this animated by the same studio that did Eizouken?
Edit: looked it up, it's not but DAMN they animated a lot of awesome stuff, including Akira!

I have several questions and none of them are as important as the fact that I really enjoyed that
damn, lots of lore drop right there, this is quite amazing! Is this considered canon?
Not on my Netflix (UAE). That's weird. I thought it was published by Netflix or something, since Season 4 dropped on time.
——-
The season finale was pure Dan Harmon. I love it so much!
Doesn't the multiverse concept allow for everything to be canon?
The tone is so different from the show, but damn if it doesn't work. I love how they let these other animators do their own take on it.
Well, that would be a messed up timeline. Thanks for sharing the theory, I didn't get that even after seeing the drunken serum.messed up 2nd image
The whole erasing of memories and time travel was a little hard to follow. I thought this YouTube comment helped a bit:
"A bit of translation help: The Japanese script mentions "Urashima Taro" instead of Rip Van Winkle when Rick gives Morty the serum. In Urashima Taro, a man saves a turtle from children that were toying around with it by putting it back in the ocean. A couple days later, that turtle comes back and takes him to an underwater palace to meet the princess there. The man and the princess spend a week together, but he has to go home to tend to his parents. Dismayed, the princess gives him a box and tells him never to open it. When the man returns home, everything is gone: his home, his parents, and everyone he knew. He ends up opening the box, and he becomes an old man.
So in this version, Rick and Morty go on a ton of adventures together (duh). When time's up, instead of a box containing old age, Rick gives Morty a serum containing all of his memories that turns him into Rick. Present Rick sacrifices himself to blow up the spaceship and thwart Evil Morty (who is the Morty who didn't take the serum). Present Morty takes the serum that turns him into Rick right up until future Morty is born. Rick and Morty go on a ton of adventures together again. "
The new short is boring and has none of the qualities that make Ricky and Marty what it is. DEEN made a better short. Unbelievable.
I loved they went so far out for it. I don't need every short to be like it, but god damn they went for it and I love it.
If by "that style of media", you're thinking "anime", that's not it. That was an extremely poorly made short.
The Pringles Super Bowl commercial was better Rick and Morty content lol
That said this is neat for what it is and am glad it exists.
Yeah, I wasn't sure if there other forms of media besides anime and didn't want to disrespect the medium. It's just not for me.
You know even though I'm not a fan of Rick = Morty as a story, it would explain his personality a lot and why he treats Morty so terribly at times and not so much at others. Like, his lack of attachment to everything could explain a lot.
Buuuuuut I don't think this is canon so hey. But if it's all we ever get about Evil Morty I'm still satisfied.

Actress Spencer Grammer injured after trying to break up altercation, NYPD police source says | CNN
Actress Spencer Grammer was injured in New York City while trying to break up an altercation, a police source told CNN on Sunday.

Report says her injuries were non-life threatening but damn, hope shes okay
So in the episode with the talking cat, why does it get abandoned again? I never really understood that part.
The cat just wants to chill with them, Rick is suspicious so he peers into the Cat's mind to learn its past, along with Jerry, and the cat has some sorta' history that's apparently so horrible they want nothing to do with it. We're not shown, told, or really hinted what that history is, but it's enough to break Jerry and force him to grow, and to make even a person like Rick sick.
