Why You Shouldn't Worry About The Finale
I've seen a lot of people fear that Murder Drones will end up like Meta Runner, shafted and forgotten, relegated only to cameos and waxing poetic about the good old days.
However, I think that is far from the case. Why?
People actually like Murder Drones.
Meta Runner is hardly popular. With most of episodes only having around 1 - 1.5 million views, and most of the later episodes not even having 1 million.
Compare that with Murder Drones, whose episodes consistently reach 10 - 20+ million views without even breaking a sweat.
All the money they must be making from ad revenue alone probably blows any profit they got off of MR out of the water, not to mention merch sales and just general fandom hype.
Murder Drones is way to popular and profitable of an IP, it was literally the series that put GLITCH on the map and made people recognize them as a real studio. It would be stupid to just shaft it entirely.
Even if we don't get a second season (at the very least not anytime soon) I wouldn't be surprised if we got some more media with the characters.
Liam himself said that he knew there was more to explore in this world, so I wouldn't be surprised if we got more media coming from the series, even if it isn't as high-budget or even animated.
Even if we don't get, say, continuous merch drops or consistent content, I have a feeling Murder Drones will be alive in some way, shape, or form for a long, long time.

I honestly hope that glitch makes like, half episodes that focus on world building and character growth. And if they do, then THIS might one hundred percent happen
And for context: Uzi finds out that she can turn into an elderitch monster like Cyn, it impresses N but does the opposite for V. It instead makes her have a panic attack due to the PTSD and Trauma that the solver gave her, and that lead to Uzi feeling guilty and helping her through it :D

I watched murder drones episode 8 and honestly, in my opinion,
It was a great way to end the show, the ending was sweet, even if some scenes in the episode felt or looked abit rushed, we know that GLITCH put lots of effort into the episode! Plus it was one hell of an emotional roller-coaster-
During the first few minutes and the battle scene I kept going "NONONONO" to "YES!!" And then back to "NONONO DONT DIE"
Also
V CAME BACK!!!!
YAYYYY
Honestly, 9/10 episode in my opinion,
It was great, although some parts felt rushed, but it was overall a great finale episode.

Just watched the last episode of Murder Drones
Was a pretty great end, kinda wish it was done a tad differently though in some areas bc the "getting life back to normal" felt rushed and like there was more to see
Might make art of the next thing said though:
Would've been a mind fuck if the universe reset from the power of the solver and it ends with Uzi waking up like Cyn did, becoming the new solver for that version of the universe.

Murder Drones Episode 8 Blind Reaction Part 2
Contains spoilers
Cyntessa’s “kay” feels like her version of “I love doing anything.” so cocky and up for anything, but that might just be her downfall.
Guys, the nightcore song is called “BiteMe!” Can this get any better?
It actually has some motifs similar to “Uzi the Drone Killer”, arguably one of the main music themes of the series, so yes, it can.
NOOO! Not Uzi stabbing N! It’s probably a trap or a trick, but still.
Bye J
I mean, yes, but no. Or like a number of blinks and winks
Not using N’s love of dogs against him. or more like the good memories they had before this whole thing
Guys pay attention! V is fighting the abomination alone!
I like the “Let them swallow you” lyric to represent the solver’s insatiable hunger
How you like it now Cyn?
Bit of a callback to the fact they are vampires, or vampire adjacent. The burning in the sun just felt like an appropriate ending for the abomination that’s been haunting everything
Is it over?
The solver has gotten eaten. And their reaction is priceless
But won’t that corrupt/take over Uzi now? or even kill her? that’d be a tragic way to go. Destroyed the monster but you destroyed yourself in the process.
Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, e-
Oh no, she’s dead!
Nvm, we’re good. but is it over? Truly?
We really needed more Thad, honestly. So much characterization gone to waste
Heh, like mother, like daughter.
You could say their hearts are connected. Hope there’s a proper reunion. Please. Please. PLEASE! They’re literally soulmates.
OMG girl, seriously, OC?
But in all seriousness, the battle scars for what she’s gone through is such a nice touch. Her half toned eyes are there to show what happened happened, and she came out alive
And we all know everyone is going to have at least one oc with this new canon trait
It really is a hero’s journey. It came full circle. Now she’s more assured of herself, has friends, and the colony is safe.
We stan a supportive Khan. Character growth.
Not Doll’s corpse!
She’s still a chaos gremlin
Also can we just take a minute to appreciate how far the animation has come from the first episode to now? everyone at Glitch should be proud of their improvement. This series is a testament to their efforts and skills and it’s absolutely wonderful.
I really like how the end credits show everything that’s happened and how it’s changed. Like the partial solver symbol over the planet, Khan and Nori did get a reunion (YEEEEESSSS!) and N finally getting his rummy game.
DOLL?!?!?!?!
Liam Vickers 2D animation, nice touch
The funeral for Doll deserved
And the kids can be kids now. also deserved.
Honestly, everyone who’s worked on this should get a round of applause and a big ol’ “Thank You!” From the production to the voice acting, to the animation, to the sound and music, to the crazy ideas in general that happen to work so well. Thank you so much for making this series a reality. I may have gotten into it later than some others, but I love this show as much as those who’s been there day one. It is a little sad to see it’s done, but I’m also glad it ended as well as it did.
Cyn lives in Uzi’s mind now
