In any case, at least Red would be fresh instead of tired(Like Cheese).

Oh man that would be totally great, since as I pointed out in the Red thread I can so see the two getting along. Both are extremely intimidating on first glance but both are also such sweeties beneath the surface. It'd be nice to see Eduardo interact with other Imaginaries rather then the Foster's Five. I can so see them gardening, Eduardo still terrified of the flowers and Red showing him how pretty they are. ^_^

I can so see them gardening, Eduardo still terrified of the flowers and Red showing him how pretty they are. ^_^ I, too, agree that this is a good idea. Ed and Red (no rhyming intended! XP) do seem to have a lot in common when it comes to their gentle nature and kind hearts. I would love to see an episode with the two of them together. Now, as for Eduardo's character in general, he's definitely up there as one of my favorites. I've noticed that some people have said on other forums that they dislike Eduardo because of his supposed 'cowardice'. It's a shame that they overlook his good qualities because they look at only his bad one. Ed's gentle heart and innocence are what make him such a lovable character. He is basically like a small child at heart and in his mind as well. He really has more good qualities than bad, which makes him a very likeable character. I personally wouldn't mind of they ever gave him a tv movie after Wilt because it would certainly be interesting to see some things about his past, too. For one thing, I've always wondered why someone such as Eduardo, who is so intimidating-looking on the outside, would be afraid of almost every little thing that moves. Was this because of something that might've happened in his past or is it just simply the way he is? It's kinda hard to tell, but it'd be interesting to find out. I also forgot to mention how much I loved how Ed became brave in "Cuckoo for Coco Cards". That was definitely another side of him I hadn't seen at the time.

Eduardo really is a big sweetie. I've never seen him openly hate someone, or something. Sure he gets angry and pouty, as most children do, but I've never seen him out right dislike someone/something and stay like that. His innocence is what drew me to him, really. While Wilt is world travelled and apologetic, Bloo is obnoxious and self centred, Coco is just crazy; Eduardo (despite his obvious age) still has the mind of a five year old. Everything still seems new to him even after all this time. He takes great joy from the smallest of things, for example his Beanie Baggies. Also how enrapt he got because of a mattress sale was another example. Agerage people would think nothing of it, but for Eduardo the prospect of buying himself something that normally costs so much for so little was a big event for him.
He values his friendships too, because even if some situations have out right terrified him from time to time, he still follows after them and sticks by through the tough times. Especially in the tough times, as evident when his Guardian nature overthrows his ‘cowardice’ and he becomes like a raging bull. Even over something as tiny as a spider for a little girl he hardly knew. That was sweet, even if he did over do it; but it’s evident his fear of spiders is one of the worst. Man. Hate to imagine him being around that Daddy Long Legs like friend we saw Mac standing on in ‘The Big Cheese’.
Yes Eduardo is scared of many things, but there has to be a really good reason as to why he takes great fear from every day things. One of my theories is that he witnessed something truly terrifying (be it at his own hands or someone else’s) and it showed him just how dangerous things can be. He’s cautious also at the same time as scared. He’s borderline, I suppose. Maybe he’s partially scared of himself, when he does become the fearsome Guardian and he treads carefully in fears of something sparking his anger and unleashing his power. I mean he’s obviously tough; he was pulling the legs off that Extremeasaur in the pilot, and also capable of lifting a bus with little effort. He could do some real damage to anything (the house obviously since he’s been capable of running through walls when fuelled right), and I think he knows that. So he'd rather be cautious and let things scare him into running away then face things head on and be a big meanie.
Eduardo has some interesting layers as evident. Here's to an episode of his own in season 5. Again. [drinks hot chocolate]
