 Re-watching this again so long after seeing it for the first time (and an initial re-watch)...it's surprising how it //feels very short//. It doesn't feel like anything really happened, which I think is because it was mostly setup for Seasons 7-10.
-If you don't count Out of Mind or Recovery One, this is the season that established most of the more ‘serious’ lore of Red vs Blue. But it's also very clearly a transitional series from the older more comedic stuff to the far more serious stuff. I think it mostly works, though...again, mostly setup. It's a bit like Season 4.

 I guess my brain mentally categorizes Seasons 6-8 as one continuous season, rather than as separate things. Which is fitting I guess.

 There is also a lot of great foreshadowing for the <span wrap_spoiler>final twist that Church is an AI</span>.
 ==== Season 7 ====
-I'll add something here later.
+After leaving this empty for a while...I realized that I don't have a very good way of categorizing this season. It's mostly setup for future seasons as far as I remember. Though we do encounter ‘C.T.’ for the first time <span wrap_spoiler>(and technically the last)</span>.
+==== Season 8 ====
+Season 8 is the second time there appears to have been an attempt at completing the storyline and, in that regard, it's pretty good.\\
+This is also where the animation starts to come in and...yeah, it's really good. I think that this season still features two of the best fight scenes in the whole series: the fight between <span wrap_spoiler>Tex and the Reds and Blues</span> and the <span wrap_spoiler>fight between Tex, Wash and the Meta</span>.
+It's pretty great!
+==== Season 9 ====
+The first of the //Project Freelancer// arc and...yeah, the animation is great. Everything involving the skyscraper is just phenomenal.
+Not much else to say here, except that the prequel does show us how Project Freelancer rendered everyone involved crazy.
+The segments inside of the memory unit are probably the weakest part of the season and definitely weird. As a side-effect, it resulted in Halo Reach not being used in...any future project, which is shameful since that's my favorite Halo game.
+==== Season 10 ====
+The animation visibly and significantly improves here, probably because they hired more animators.
+I personally think this is my favorite season, though without everything prior it wouldn't be...so...yeah?
+The season wraps the story up very nicely, tying up essentially all loose ends, though it does leave a cliffhanger for the //Chorus Trilogy//, so that's nice I guess.
+Lots of good stuff here.
+Also, a side-note: <span wrap_spoiler>I realized that there's a very very tiny implication that Tex is still alive here. This is relevant because Tex is my favorite character and I don't doubt she's one of the favorites of the fanbase too.</span>
 ==== Season 14 ====
 I mostly don't have an issue with Season 14, with a few exceptions. I don't like the episodes that show the assembling of the crew in Blood Gulch...though, don't get me wrong, I have no problem with //most// of the content there. What bothers me is that a lot of the characters (prior to Blood Gulch) are depicted as having killed people. I can’t articulate exactly why this bothers me, but I don't think it meshes well with what we know about the Reds and the Blues.

 I think it's alright. Nothing much happens, but it does explain how Delta got from position A (York's corpse) to position B (South). Among other things.
-=== Relocation ===
+=== Relocated ===
-More to be added later.
+I forgot what I was originally gonna write here, but I'll remember later.
+=== Where There's a Will, There's a Wall ===
+Probably among the least consequential of the mini series and very clearly just a bonus. At least it's mildly entertaining.
 ===== Characters & Worldbuilding =====
 //Red vs. Blue// takes place in the [[lb:Halo]] universe...kind of. It's more like a derivative.\\
 There are a few references to Halo sprinkled into the series like Master Chief, the war with the Covenant and the UNSC...though, overall, it's very light on details.
-It's clear that the Freelancer Foundation is a rival organization to the Spartan-II and Spartan-3 programs.
