I've got to say I enjoy that Emu can mostly ignore Parad with Maximum Mighty X, it makes for some hilarious fight scenes. Like how Parad goes in for a punch and Emu just grabs his arm and twists it back to stop him almost immediately.

This was a great episode. Good to see Poppy back with the team. But what happened with her driver though? She threw it somewhere offscreen and the gashat just disappeared. I was not expecting that ending though. So Parad is Emu's Bugster then? So that makes him M?

I'm leaving the plot twist for next week since I think it's a good twist idea, but it isn't completely adding up for me and I expect next week to clear things up.
Let's talk about Poppy. Poppy is one of those characters that I try to ignore. Not because she's a bad character or anything, just that I've been burned before on special female protagonists never being developed or explained beyond a throwaway line in an early episode. Then they made Poppy a Rider and I instantly knew she was getting development I want from characters like this. Sure enough, this episode dives into what she is. It works as a nice mirror of Ex-Aid's Emu/M identity crisis, which the more I think about it, I think the show's underlining theme is identity crisis. A lot of the conflict comes from things like doctor (Emu) vs. gamer (M), friend (Asuna) vs. foe (Poppy), liar vs. soothsayer (Lazer), detached vs. invested (Hiiro). I'm sure there's more, those are just the ones I've seen pretty clearly. I also wanted to talk about my issues with Kamen Rider Poppy's design, but I'll come back to that later. PS soothsayer was the closest antonym I could find for liar. |

If he treats his heartbreaks like I do, he probably went to eat multiple tubs of ice cream

So Episode of Poppy was pretty interesting. The dilemma, Parad being a controlling psychopath, and that heartwarming near-ending all wrapped up to make another roller coaster ride of emotion and speculation. Kind of disappointing we didn't get some kind of music/dance battle to cure the game disease, but the ending we got was still really nice.
I'm going to reserve my thoughts on Parad's revelation until the actual episode happens though (if I even comment on that thread...). Too much ambiguity to reliably ascertain anything. Another thing to add to the growing pile of "can't wait for Ex-aid things", along side the Buggle Driver II and the Lazer Hyper Battle DVD.
