Well there is one shot in particular that I recall, it's when Chise's scrolling through the feed on her phone. Talking about "Another rampaging Kaiju" and "It's time to change capital's if Tokyo's like this" in regards to the Kaiju attacks.
It seems like there is some concern there, but clearly that's not what the show wants to focus on at the moment. Given this is likely another computer world it could just be whatever created it made it to where "Yeah Kaiju appear but no one gets extremely worked over about it, people rebuild and just continue on with their lives" or something of that sort. |

It's also, like... a lot more real? I mean, look at all the crazy stuff that's happened in the last half decade alone; but for the most part while we've got strong initial reactions and perhaps decisions made, for the most part a lot of us just go about our lives as normal in the same day-to-day mundanity. It's an aspect of SSSS that I appreciate; that very true-to-life acceptance that day-to-day mundanity will inevitably hold interest more than everything insane going on. At some point you just get tired of it and sink back into your normal life, you know?

One person's chaos is another's normalcy.

So not all Kaiju are going to come out perfect and ready to control at first...I mean, all that one was doing was painting stuff and looking kind of pathetic. But I guess even a Kaiju like that can still be dangerous when it grows up.
Yomogi and Yume are having difficulty tracking down Kano's boyfriend, but Yomogi's not going to give up, and with that resolve he basically asks Yume out (although not as overtly as a confession), which she then reciprocates at the end. So cute. So apparently Yomogi's boss found a lot of money and asked Koyomi to run away with her with it when they were classmates...but Koyomi chickened out. I'm kind of wondering what happened afterwards because Yomogi's boss doesn't act like she's loaded, so where did all the money go and what happened to her afterwards? Apparently Gauma's out of practice when it comes to controlling Kaiju, which leads to a fun scene of everyone trying to do an "instance domination" of their own, although it seems like Yomogi might have the best potential of the team to control Kaiju, surprisingly enough. Kind of curious to see where that leads. The Eugenecists basically have a day off where they go play at Japanese Round One and enjoy a movie together. Onija and Mujina seem to be really getting along now. Also, classy of the guys to let Mujina use the one bed place when they were tired. So if I'm understanding correctly, Kaiju are born from the emotions of people but it's the Eugenecists popping up in this era that is causing them to appear? Chise acting about Kaiju feeding on emotions while her egg is transforming into a dragon thing...I don't see that ending well. It's probably for the best that Knight and Second don't mention they're technically Kaiju...although that does lead Knight to have an understanding of the dynamics of Kaiju and how complicated they can be. Although his secret method for finding Kaiju is to just look for them. I like Koyomi being more conscious of taking the fight away from the city where bystanders can get hurt. He's really maturing. I guess it's sometimes a big liability when your Mecha is reduced to the size of a toy, since it can be easily knocked away from you. So now apparently the Dynazenon components have resonated with Gridknight to the point where they can transform into weapons for him. Can all of them do that? Will we get the rest of the combinations in the next few episodes? Well, Yomogi was maybe this close to connecting with the Kaiju, and it seemed to regard him, but if it comes between saving Yume or destroying a Kaiju, there's no hesitation on what Yomogi will do. |

Knight and Anosillus are now in the OP. Guess they weren't just 1 episode guest appearances now. Also, Gauma mentions again the princess that he is looking for. I wonder who she is?

Yeah for anyone wondering if they might have been one and done, around Monday when we got the preview images for next week the visual on the sight includes Knight and Nidaime on the main poster now. So they're sticking around for the rest of this.
I gotta say I love it when the Kaiju Eugenecists are just sticking around and having fun. Admittedly it's definitely seeming like Sizumu is up to something given his railroading his colleagues into just having two days off. But still. Chise's orb now looks like a dragon skeleton, and a fun bit of everyone just doing "Instance Domination" leads to some heavy foreshadowing given that Yomogi was able to tap into that very briefly. Needless to say... stuff is going to drop soon. I remember seeing fanart of Gridknight holding Dyna Soldier like a cannon so needless to say I grinned when I saw that this was basically possible. Now I'm curious if the most recent Dynazenon toy release can do this? Last edited by Enchilada645; 05-21-2021 at 03:11 PM.. |

God, I'm too busy to write up something, but I liked this episode. I thought for sure Yomogi was going to shoot through the building and we'll have "that" kind of episode next week. Bit weird to see now people are panicking when a kaiju comes around.
Yes, actually. The toy actually spoiled this gimmick first lmao. |

So suppose Dyna Soldier becomes unavailable for whaever reasons and Grid Knight substitutes instead. I wonder if that will result in King Grid Knight.

The Kaiju Eugenicists are having fun on their day off, while Yomogi's going through what Haruki did during Ultraman Z. I just enjoy the Kaiju Eugenicists, they feel very normal compared to what we got with Akane and Alexis, and especially love how they were watching an Ultraman knockoff while all of this was going down.
Yomogi being foreshadowed to use the Instance Domination during that fun little scene shows that there may have definitely been a purpose to these characters getting picked to pilot Dynazenon. And Chise starting to slowly become more and more suspicious (seriously, she managed to get out of that chaos to warn Yomogi). I bet that Dragon she's got is going to turn into that statue we see in the opening. The Kaiju being born from emotions reminds me of Ultraman 80, as they were believed to be born from emotions in that one as well. Of course, Akane made Kaiju in Gridman with the mindset of removing people she didn't like, similar with Takeshi, so that might be what they're going for. Gridknight using Dyna Soldier as a bazooka was really cool, didn't the original Gridman use something similar, or am I just crazy? Anyway, weird Kaiju painting the town whatever, and Gauma taking responsibility made for an interesting episode. And might as well talk about Koyomi. I'm guessing he either simply chickened out, or he secretly called her out on that dough. The mystery deepens. And of course, seeing the updated opening helped me get a better look at those shots with the characters drawing out their Dynazenon pieces in front of: (Yomogi) The Kaiju Eugenicists, (Yume) her sister, (Koyomi) two guesses, either Yomogi's boss, or Chise, that one is harder to read out. Anyway, I'm growing increasingly worried about Yume's sister's "boyfreind" with what we got at the start of the episode. And what other ways can Gridknight utilize Dynazenon? |

Also I didn't notice this until browsing twitter but um... Gauma you should get your back checked, that purple discoloration is changing shape but also growing the more we see his bare back. Admittedly it's time for me to go buck wild with a theory in terms of where characters are going and just certain things I've noticed people point to in regards to the DX Dynazenon. So Theory: We're in for a bait and switch, we're all worried about Chise but I've started to wonder about sort of... her situation. Like, it's clear she wants to help out but feels like a bit of an outlier/third wheel so to speak when it comes to the group. Then it hit me after seeing the bead grow into a dragon skeleton alongside thinking about Yomogi. Yomogi's going to become a Kaiju Eugenecist or at least be opposed to our protagonists while keeping Dyna Soldier, maybe even transforming Dyna Soldier into a Kaiju, thus resulting in Dynazenon (Normal Ver.) being unavailable. In comes Chise via her new "kaiju" but it's different than the others. Given her desire to want to help out it ends up being more mechanical/dynazenon/grid-person in nature. It will have a singular mode, but it will also have two additional modes. A mode to combine with Gridknight and empower him, and a mode to where it allows for a smoother/cleaner link up between the soldier-less Dynazenon and Gridknight. |
