Maybe they were trying to draw out the Bugster and kill it before Emu even knew it was in there.
I mean, Kiriya told his friend that he had game disease, and that friend ended up killing himself over the news. Maybe Hiiro and Taiga figured they could dispatch of it and go "Oh, by the way, you had game disease but we've taken care of it so no need to stress yourself out."

Actually, I have one major question. What IS Kamen Rider Chronicle? My theory is Genm's getting another upgrade but Parad is CLEARLY going to double cross him

Great episode, although I don't know whether to be happy (they got a whole extra minute of runtime!) or sad (in episode 12 it was actually special...) about the lack of the opening. Anyway:
- Nico got Faized! - I think Para-DX (I guess we're just going with that) might be my favorite design in the show? I kind of hated it for looking dumb and weird at first but now it's looped back around into me loving it for looking dumb and weird. And I mean, he looks dumb and weird by the standards of a show where everyone looks dumb and weird. I also adore the Gear Dual. Doesn't use a belt? Weird! Proper English voice? Weird! Trying to make the word "puzzle" sound menacing (with that start screen, too)? Weird! - I like how Snipe is just kind of a total loser at this point. Gets kicked out of the good guys' club and then when he tries to play up the edgy loner angle some weird girl shows up to kill the atmosphere. Poor guy can't catch a break. And yet, his displays of intelligence, like actually having the forethought to do some research on Emu, suggest that he's actually one of the most competent people in the show. I know he's been called one-note, but ever since he got his Level 3 form I think Taiga has had some decent layers to his character, and that's only gotten more true lately. - So the secret behind Emu this whole time was "watch the movie"? Kinda anticlimactic... - Hiiro continues to basically be an Inoue character. Not only does he have weird quirks (his love of cakes, calling anything sharp a "scapel"), but now he's even attacking his allies without explaining his reasons! I'm not complaining though. It's consistent with his characterization. I'm actually more surprised Emu and Asuna don't immediately assume he has some good reason. For all Hiiro's faults, he's not that much of a jerk.

Tekken 7 Gashat when?
But seriously, good episode. I keep thinking how much I usually dislike shows that throw out new power-ups or Riders too frequently, but with Ex-Aid I kinda don't mind. Mostly because they keep the story interesting at the same time. I kinda called Emu being the original Bugster, although he is more like the original host, but I assume he's what you would call a native Bugster, the purest form. I bet this is going the same old "What happens to my body"-route later, like Space God Kouta or Greeed Eiji, but we'll see. Para-DX is kinda awesome. The sounds of his Gashat are really cool and the design is neat. I was surprised to see that he isn't using a Driver, but I guess a Bugster doesn't need one; Graphite was just sticking that Proto-Gashat into his chest too. So yeah Ex-Aid keeps trucking and I'm still entertained, sweet. |

I can tell Para-DX is gonna be just my type of villain. One who looks like he's enjoying villain-y way too much. And his voice works for it too. He sounds like a kid that's just enjoying himself.

Finally we might just have an episode not debuting a new Toy to sell.
Anyway This was a great episode a new mystery surrounding Emu, Bave and Snipe work together to have a bad idea an now P1 and P2 of team evil are active. Now is the point where they just need to keep pace to hold together the plot over the middle part of the season.

My money says Kamen Rider Chronicle is the next Battride War game, and Gemn plans on breaking the fourth wall to get to the players.
Kidding, but considering this shows video game theme, it would be a crime if we don't get another game specifically for this season (as in, don't skip it like Drive).

Does Kamen Rider Para-DX transform without a driver? I might have missed something but it looks as though his Gashat is completely independent.
