Sounds like the stupidest episode ever!

An old friend of Michonne randomly stumbles across ASZ.

And making a pregnant Michonne kill a bunch of kids... who thought this was a good idea!

How would you even find a random group of trained child weapons that brand adults with X's. Sounds like something FTWD would try.

 

Wow, I like that. Betrayed by an old friend from before. Interesting idea. Can definitely see how this saga shaped Michonne into who she is now.

 

Could this story be a ZA adaption of Oliver Twist with a bunch of brainwashed criminal kids running around to steal?

Seriously, betrayed by an old friend sounds like a good dramatic plot. But, I am not sure about killing kids. But this is not the first time TWD touching on this subject. Remember Carol telling Lizzie to look at the flowers?

I wonder if this incident triggered Michonne to start training Judith up as a badass?

 

There is also Carl killing that teenager in the prison arc. I do not remember how old was that boy but he is definitely not an adult. Maybe that teenager is not counted as a 'kid'?

 

If they manage to pull off a pregnant lady killing a tribe of killer children with a samurai sword tastefully then it'll be awesome lol

Realistically though, I think this whole thing sounds dumb. Less can definitely be more, i would've left the X branding open ended, no need to do this flashback.

We know that Michonne has changed and we also know that she's been branded with the X, we can connect the dots and form an opinion and it serves it's purpose.
