The latest episode, titled Gotron Jerrysis Rickvangelion, played on the tropes of popular Japanese mecha anime series, Neon Genesis Evangelion. Summer has been more involved in rick and Morty’s outer space adventures these days. This episode also focused on space adventure, where the trio are planning a space trip to Boob World. However, on the way to the Boob World, Rick spots a GoTron ferret and cancels the Boob World adventure.
But, Morty was really looking forward to the trip to Boob World, and he seemed disappointed with the change of plan. The episode also hints that something is wrong with Morty because we haven’t seen Morty arguing for stuff like this in a long time. When the fifth season premiered, fans assumed that Morty would be taking more decisions for himself rather than following his narcissist grandfather.
Rick plans new adventure on his own without listening what his grandkids wants, or his family members. Rick then enlists the entire Smith family on his adventure quest to collect five GoTron ferrets. He wants to use the GoTron ferrets to fight against the monsters that often attack earth. Like always, Rick goes overboard during the adventure and puts his life on the harms way.
