Thundercats 2011
...Episode 17....
----NATIVE SON---
An interesting and slightly scary story!
While passing through some snowy mountains, Lion-O and Tygra find a passage to a secret kingdom where the inhabitants claim to be Tygra´s lost family and clan. It is soon revealed that the little empire is on a curse that haunts the mountain at night and that Tygra was separated at birth from his family in order to protect him from the intentions of the Ancient Spirits, that feared the baby would become an enemy to them when he grew up.
Differently to the eighties version where it is understood that all Thundercats are nobles with noble origins, here we have the ambiguous character of Tygra having ancestors that were willingly under the commands of Mumm-ra and were not just like any henchmen of his, but his elite force.
Also in this episode we get to see the first days of Tygra and how he arrives to the Royal Palace to be adopted by the queen ( a good detail here is that in those moments in the story, Mumm-ra is supposed to be only a myth and Tygra has a Mumm-ra doll between his toys)
We will see Lion-0 and Tygra working to break the curse if it is not already too late...
Thanks for reading.
