New episode of The Last of us!

Wow!! I'm still on edge after watching the episode.

The episode starts showing us a new character named David who is the leader of a group of survivors.

On the other hand, we see Ellie in her fight to keep Joel alive and because of this she goes hunting a deer, and because of this she ends up finding David and her partner.

From here is where the action begins.

I really liked the way they adapted David's story in this episode, unlike the game, here everything happens a little faster, however, everything happens in the right way for fill the story in just 50 minutes.

As the episodes progress, adjectives run out to describe Bella Ramsey's performance.

Man, the whole episode is pretty cool, but the ending... A scene exactly taken from the video game in which you feel Ellie's fear and adrenaline for everything that is happening with David, until finally Ellie explodes showing us one of the most violent and bloody scenes of the entire series.

With this it is clear to me that there is definitely no bad episode in the series, and that the cast for this one was more than perfect. Bella Ramsey is definitely Ellie, and also a shout-out to Troy Baker for his terrific performance in this episode (it was pretty funny hearing Joel's voice in someone who isn't Joel this time lol).

I don't know what else I can add. 10/10 for the penultimate episode of this season and to wait for the season finale, which I know will also be magnificent.
