"Beastly, we would love it if you join us-"
NEXT SCENE!
For those wondering what Share said here.
Normally you don't ACTUALLY hear what the characters say when scenes like this arise, but Care Bears put it in as a "did you catch that?" moment, Clever.
Also i should say this here, since i left this out in my No Heart Games review post...
CON: That's not Beastly. I mean it LOOKS like Beastly with his scarf and aviator cap n everything, but it's basically "re-skinned Plunk", voice and all. No signature Beastly "Sha-sha-sha-sha-sha" laugh, very disappointing.
I'd still prefer the old Beastly...

Ok.
A review of The No Heart Games (Final UTM Special/Episode, for now), i'll sum it up with pros and cons.
Pros:
- NO HEART'S BACK! and just a quick spoil, so is Beastly.
- The references to Nelvana's work on Care Bears overall (there's quite a few references that genuinely made my breathing intensify)
- Both theories some fans theorized were true: There is a competition-theme of sorts in this special (similar to The Great Race) and that the title of the special was a 'wink' from the writers that they're aware of the 80's cartoon and know, at least, who No Heart is.
- No Heart and Beastly's character designs are, for the most part, very faithful to the original and surprisingly work with the UTM art style.
Cons:
- No mention of Shreeky, at all.
- LAZY VOICE CASTING: I understand they couldn't get any of the original VAs for No Heart and Beastly, seeing that Chris Wiggins (No Heart from Nelvana Series), sadly passed away back in 2017 RIP, and John Stocker (Beastly from Nelvana Series) is in his mid- 70's, and likely couldn't do his Beastly voice for prolonged periods of time, if at all anymore. The current VA Cast for UTM is fine, though it felt like a cost-cutting measure to keep things simple and within budget.
- Without spoiling, the end of the special, along with the message/lesson we're supposed to learn felt kinda rushed, at least to me.
Regardless, i'd say it went out on a high note, not the worst of the 6 specials, but not the best either.
EITHER WAY, i highly recommend you check the special out.
@carebearscomfort does has the link, though you must DM them if you wanna watch it.
Well, I love this special, but it could've been better if Shreeky makes a huge impact, with the legendary Terri Hawkes reprising her role.
