I watched the video review of AC Gridon, & ended less than impressed...
Gridon being the less interesting character of the show, not visually as cool as the others, + the fact that he's coming with his ride making him more expensive... I think I'm going to pass & wait for Shin Zangetsu to be my first AC. |

What about that time when all the riders were fighting in the forest and Gridon hid behind a tree waiting for his opportunity to jump in? There was that time he lost to Ryugen, that time he was crushed by Baron, or the time he ambushed Zangetsu and then got beat up. Basically, you need a Gridon to get beat up by your other riders. He's the jobber of Gaim.

I'm still a bit confused as to why he seems to be called Ornac on the show, whereas everything else has called him Gridon >_>

Ornac is an attempt to make that joke more literal in English. Acorn - Ornac.

His literal actual name is Gridon. Aesir thought it would make more sense to try and back translate the joke of his name. Gridon gets his powers from a Dunguri lockseed, Donguri in English is Acorn. So since his seed is Donguri Hasse thought it would be funny to go with calling him Gridon which is Donguri more or less backwards.

Just a quick question for those with the different types of lock seeds, is it just me or are the Gashapon Lock Seeds louder than the Candy Toy/Bandage ones? Just curious cause I just got my lock seeds today and my banana gashapon one seems louder and clearer than my melon (bandage) and budou (candy).

Basically the joke is Kurokage gave himself an awesome name and Gridon a shitty one, but Aesir didn't catch that. A TV-Nihon-style screen note would've been better. "Ornac" sounds awful. Last edited by SPLIT LIP; 01-24-2014 at 12:57 AM.. |

The name is suppose to sound stupid. Gridon does not sound that stupid in English, Onarc does sound just as stupid as it's suppose to sound.
