Soo I got to ask, even knowing the fact that there is a very good chance all of this will be fixed and everything will go back to normal next episode. Do you still care about the bad things that have happened this and last episode if it will all be undone next episode?

Build seems to be drawing heavily off of how the first Gall Force ended as well as "Eyes of Mars". So I suspect resurrections are going to be similar. Though the question still remains of how many memories of the "past lives" will remain. In Gall Force it was none. That seems to be the direction this is taking and has been building to since the start with the introduction of how Pandora's box was found on Mars and Sento's own amnesia. Creatively, seems likely too. We started with Sento in base form with a dual split motif homage, gradually followed rider trends of power ups to his ultimate Genius form, and now the final form rather looks like he's become a bottle himself with how the 'skirt' looks and opens. Pulling him full circle to the roots of how the show started with bottles and his amnesia. Which with the story concept and how it's drawing on "Eyes of Mars" makes me think they'll take the show back to base concept at the end, a fresh beginning and the question of memories of the past. Not so much a resurrection method, as it is a clean slate to start over. A fresh beginning in a new world. This seems to be a common theme to many Japanese media things. I'm referencing Eyes of Mars and Gall Force, but it was also heavily dominant in the 90s with various material too. And tbh, Builds designs and colors are very 90s.

Even at the last Gen is a boss. Nothing but crocodile tears this week.
What I'm curious about is why the Pandora chose only the Genius bottle to be drained. Every bottle was created through the use of the Pandora Box and the Nebula Gas that was the rarefied form of the Pandora energy. Also, being such a geek, I can't help but say the words "Metacrisis" without using the voice of the Doctor from Doctor Who. Then I start thinking the phrase "watching two earths smash" and think ...man, that's really dirty.

Because the characters we knew would truly be dead, but their lives wouldn't be lost and they had a chance to fulfill the dreams they had. Kazumin and his gang could be together again, Gentoku could become an honest politician etc. And maybe even have a little something, like that our heroes are "strangely familiar" to the new Kazumin and Gentoku, and that they may want to work together again or something. Just don't have the characters pop up alive and well again and act like nothing really happened. Screw you, W! Anyways, @Topic: Good episode, really great stuff with Gentoku here. I’m just a little bit tired of the all-powerful, planet eating Evolto being defeated yet again because someone scratched his DX toy. Like, come on. I know he needs to have a weakness but I find it annoying that this is how they get him weak enough to throw him into space. But, bonus points for not using Vernage again. If Misora really did summon her again or something I’d be pissed. But then again, minus points for completely wasting Vernage. Apparently her getting mixed into Banjou was everything they could do with the character? Huh. |

Depends how they handle it. If it’s done terribly (Like in W) then no, if they do it like I suggested and have the dead characters be replaced by their alter egos from the second Earth who have no relation to our heroes and thus don't know them then I think it would be okay.

So basically, like Ryuki?

Even if everyone is brought back from the dead and I'm thinking there's still 1 or 2 more deaths to come, I hope that they do it in a way that I don't feel cheated.
This is why I blame the Kamen Rider movies and in some cases the next franchise like Zi-O on why we can't get the types of endings that some of us want. I know many hate Phillip's revival in W, and W is my all time favorite KR season even with Aki-chan trying to ruin every episode. If there wasn't any KR movies with the old season and the new season merging or those larger rider collaboration movies, Philip could have died. One day, I'd like to see the main rider die of his injuries after defeating or killing the enemy. When I saw Kuuga, I thought they were both dead, but Yosuke survived. |
