I'm confused, above all else. Just finished watching it at this very moment, and still piecing together the first part. Definitely smelling some payoff here later on with blue-haired "Rouge", we shall see.

Shady dude being another gladiator was hardly surprising.

Rouge looked cute in a frilly dress though.

Also, I can't be the only one who likes to sing/hum "Nananananananananana" along with the OP.
