Recap / Alfred J Kwak S 2 E 15 De Vulkaan

Go To

On the island of Sinatra, a volcano keeps erupting with many flames, but no lava or smoke. There is also no heat. Alfred, Paljas and Stoppel travel to the island to study the matter.

Continues in De Draak (Save The Dragon)


Tropes:

  • Artistic License – Space: In the finnish dub, Alfred and Von Paljas keep referring to K-27 as a "star", while it's obviously not one (a star would be on fire!). It has to be a planet, a moon, or an asteroidnote .
  • Limited Wardrobe: Stoppel wears a heavy jacket, scarf, and what appears to be a knitted shirt through the episode, despite noting that they're wearing too many layers when they arrive to Sinatra.
  • Dub Name Change: The english dub call the Sinatra islands "Cinders Islands".
  • Batman Cold Open: The episode opens with a random but harrowing space trip.
  • Gratuitous German: The english dub contains several "ja"s from Von Paljas.
  • Recycled Animation: The windmill crashing on the ground and Alfred and Von Paljas lying on the floor is reused only minutes after the first use.
  • What Measure Is A Nonhuman: Von Paljas insists that robots don't have feelings, despite that the robot (despite it's unmoving face) really seems like it does, and in the fishing arc Rokodil said that people can build robots that have feelings.
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: What the heck was going on in the beginning? Why were all these alien civilizations and wars Von Paljas referenced to never addressed or even shown?
