"The helper seeks to help because he knows what it is to be helpless"

The wanders: in this episode wander discoveres a Cristal which splits up his personalities and Sylvia has to collect them all to get wander back, this is a really clever plot because it shows off all of wander's personality and we even get call backs from previous episodes, this episode was really fun and has one of the best endings in this show, when wander wants to defeat lord hater Sylvia notices that isn't wander and there isn't a reflection in one crystal and then she sees a timid young version of wander and then zen wander saids "The helper seeks to help because he knows what it is to be helpless" I love this line so much it reminds of "When you do things right people won't be sure you've done anything at all" from Futurama, and this also gives us some insight on wander and why he helps. Then Sylvia gets the timid wander beck into original wander which gets him back. This is my fourth favorite episode of season 2 and my 6th favorite episode of wander over yonder for the entire series, this episode is a 10/10

The axe: this episode is about one of lord haters planets getting conquered by evil sandwich sourdough from "the fancy party" and hater blames peepers for sourdough conquering this planet and then peepers gets fired and we see how hater does without peepers, at first he's able to conquer planets without trouble, but then hater and the watchdogs are attacked by sourdough and his minions. And he tries to apologize to peepers about firing him and eventually he does and so they defeat sourdough and his minions and the episode ends with hater putting a statue of peppers alongside him. This episode is really great because is shows the dinamic between the two and Seders the question "how would hater do without peepers?" This is my ninth favorite episode of season 2

This episode gets a 9/10

With the wanders getting a 10/10 and the axe getting a 9/10 the whole episode gets a 9.5/10 but I had to round it up to a 10 because IMDb doesn't do scores with decimals.

Both episodes are incredible and heartwarming.

The Wanders: The episode begins with Wander and Sylvia helping a little squirrel to take her to her family in a tree. The little squirrel enters a mysterious cave. Sylvia warns Wander not to go in but since we already know Wander; he cannot avoid the temptation to always do good no matter what. Wander enters the cave and finds thousands of his reflections in the cave crystals, however he would not realize that this would only cause all his reflections to come out of there stepping on Sylvia. Sylvia realizes that all of Wander's personalities shot out of the cave and are now scattered across the planet. Sylvia does her best to save her friend. At first she thinks it is impossible but she, knowing all the personalities of her friend, decides to get hold of him. This is how Sylvia manages to make all the personalities enter the cave and join Wander apparently with a normal Wander. However Sylvia notices that something is not right not only with Wander but that all his other reflections are still in the cave. Sylvia searches and finds a little Wander who feels lonely and scared by everything, but Sylvia helps him. She takes little Wander with the original Wander and this is how every part of Wander returns to its original self with Wander shedding a tear. In the end Wander and Sylvia block the cave so that no one else enters and the same thing happens to him as Wander and Sylvia ends up saying that is my favorite part of you. This episode gives us a valuable lesson to accept each part of us since that makes us special, unique and makes us who we are.

Now with the next episode. The next episode focuses more primarily on the antagonists of the series; Lord Hater and Peepers being this the first episode in which neither Wander nor Sylvia appear.

The Axe: The episode begins with Lord Hater angry as another villain; being Evil Sandwich, he had stolen one of his planets. Lord Hater thinks that Peepers is the one to blame for all this so he decides to fire him. Commander Peepers feels worried and is well since he knows that Lord Hater will not be able to achieve anything without him until he realizes that Lord Hater can easily conquer planets without him. After a sad scene with a sentimental soundtrack about Peepers retiring from his job, Evil Sandwich comes to claim Lord Hater for his planets and tells him how incompetent he can do nothing right without Peepers' help. Lord Hater chases Peepers in a space taxi trying to apologize to him and telling him that he needs him back. This is how Peepers returns giving his lesson to Evil Sandwich. The episode ends with Lord Hater making a statue of Peepers next to him with Peepers hugging him and Hater saying don't make me fire you again

I must say that both episodes are very good although if I would choose my favorite it would be; The Wanders which is one of my favorite episodes of the series. That doesn't mean The Axe isn't amazing though, because it is.
