Gods Episode 5 “Lemon Scented You”
American
Gods continues to be awesome. Episode five, “Lemon Scented You”,
was Shadow finally coming to the realization that the crazy shit
happening around him is actually real. But first the episode starts
off with this beautifully animated, I am assuming stop motion, short
showing a tribe crossing from Siberia to America thousands of years
ago led by a woman name Atsula. They worship a mammoth god named
Nunyunnini. Over time the people end up in other tribes to the point
where the god and the people are forgotten. This leads perfectly to
the story of this episode concerning Mr. Wednesday and his fear of
the old gods being forgotten.
