Rick and Morty: The Anime Sets Up Finale With Big Battle Preview

As a long-time fan of Rick and Morty, I’ve eagerly been following the adventures of the Smith family through various dimensions and timelines. The anime spinoff has undoubtedly added another layer of excitement to this sci-fi saga, offering a unique perspective on our favorite mad scientist and his grandson.


The anime adaptation of “Rick and Morty,” titled “Rick and Morty: The Anime,” is almost at its last episode, with a sneak peek revealing an intense upcoming battle. This unique experiment by Adult Swim has been one of the most intriguing releases this year, as fans eagerly await the return of the original animated series’ eighth season. In the meantime, they have been treated to an entirely new anime spinoff series featuring a fresh perspective on Rick and Morty. As we approach the end of its initial run on the network, it won’t be long before we witness the conclusion of this captivating anime adaptation.

For the last two episodes of the debut season of “Rick and Morty: The Anime” on Adult Swim, we find the Smith Family embroiled in a fierce conflict with the Galactic Federation. This long-time adversary has escalated their attacks, targeting the Smith household. However, true to form, the Smiths are fighting back. Catch a sneak peek at what’s coming up in Episode 9, as previewed by Adult Swim.

What’s Happening in Rick and Morty: The Anime?

In the second half of “Rick and Morty: The Anime”, there seemed to be a more linear narrative as compared to the initial episodes. This change is likely due to Space Rick’s entropy bomb no longer disrupting the storytelling. Consequently, missing pieces from skipped events have been gradually filled in, allowing us to piece together the bigger picture. We now understand how Space Morty met his demise and also learned about Elle’s abilities over time, their workings being clarified.

In a previous conversation, Elle revealed herself as a time-controlling warrior. When speaking with Space Rick, however, she clarified that her powers enable her to perceive all moments in time simultaneously, rather than viewing the past or future separately. Instead, everything coexists for her, happening all at once. This shared connection with Morty, established since their first encounter, adds depth to their relationship as we approach the finale, leaving us intrigued about its implications.
