9/10
Worthy send off for Michonne, Danai Gurira gives a phenomenal performance in this great but not perfect episode

Warning: Spoilers
Michonne is... Badass. Danai Gurira absolutely killed it it in this week's episode! The writers and showrunner gave her an episode dedicated to her character and the future of the beloved character, also something unique and unpredictable, overall an mpressive episode. This episode alone shows Danai's acting capabilities, how she's worthy to be a lead actress in a huge motion picture. The music is again great, giving us a suspenseful and powerful score that fits nicely with the episode. It was unpredictable, not really how I pictured her final episode to be but it worked. I noticed a lot of people giving this episode an 10/10 but I'm not feeling it, for the character and everything Michonne related I was pleased but it's far from a perfect episode because for example some stupid writing that was there to move on the plot quicker. Sharat Raju did a good job at directing the episode, I really enjoyed the editing and cinematography that the episode had. Again, not a superb episode but one that will be remembered because of the acting and the Katana wielding character known as Michonne.

All the pieces Matter. This episode is Dainai Gurira's exit from the show but will return in the upcoming trilogy of movies, was it a worthy exit? Yes. They built up the transition nicely with her joining the movies and returning to Rick Grimes. I can't wait for what's to come, the bigger picture.
