yeah, we know they're reincarnated, but I'm interested in knowing how and/or why. And since memories were a thing in SSSS. Gridman, I wonder what role it will play here.
Theory: Gridknight might have something to do with Chise. After all, she's not stowing away aboard Dynazenon, and there's still so much yet to be revealed about her. Not holding my breath, and I don't want to lean too much into SSSS. Gridman characters, since Tsuburaya said this wasn't a Season 2, not that I'm against that mind you, but it would be interesting if Gridknight's taking the mantle of protector in this version of the world. I wonder if those red eyes behind her in the Opening are going to end up being Anti/Gridknight? |

This was a real good episode, the main Dynazenon team continues to grow, I really enjoyed Koyomi and Gauma's little moment and Koyomi seems to be getting somewhere. It's also nice to see Yomogi and Yume bond a bit more after everything last week. Curious to see what Chise's deal is what with that bead continuing to grow.
I was expecting Anti, but I was not expecting Anosillus the 2nd, nice to see that they're working as a team now under the name Gridknight Alliance. And they're older as well! Looks like some time has passed since the events of SSSS.Gridman. Though I suppose with a name like Gridknight Alliance that Gridman's branching out then with his allies, or at least I assume anyway. It also seems like the two only just recently showed up as well. Their presence and the way they talk too definitely seems to hint that this isn't the same world as the original SSSS series either. What with their talk about worlds, and such, as if they've been hopping from place to place fighting Kaiju on the regular. Of course Anti's (Or I suppose I should call him Knight now) as rough around the edges as ever and it's funny seeing him and Gauma butt heads. But hey when there's a Kaiju on the scene, I suppose that's enough for them to come to a brief understanding. Speaking of though, that final fight of Gridknight and Dynazenon fighting together, with Anti's character song blaring in the background as they beat down on the toughest Kaiju yet? That brought a big old smile to my face. |

Crackpot thought, but I wonder if the woman Gauma is referring to is Akane. Unlikely, but just a thought when he said she was somewhere he can't reach. Man, also looks hurt here when he said "Cool, right?"
I like that Yomogi and Yume are now in the same page when it comes to their investigation and only furthers my investment on these two. Koyomi's somewhat resolved his thing with the manager woman, but albeit in a bittersweet way. He's the only character in this show who hasn't progressed his relationships with anyone. Even the Kaiju euginicists (I'm never gonna be able to spell that right), formed a bond with each other in Mujina and Onija. At least Chise's there, neat scene of them biting on the lollipop. Tho, seems like something is stirring inside Chise. Envy? Not good~ Anti and Anosillus! Glad to seem them back, and also the little wand thing that the magical girl used to bring the first Anosillus to her senses! Have little knowledge on the original Gridman since it's been a while. Anti's grown so much, wow. Like how Anosillus still kept her bright smile that somehow still looks unintentionally threatening, as seen when Gauma puts his hand on her shoulder and Anti reacts while she barely moved. One more time, I like Yomogi and Yume. |

Resolutions! Revelations! Redemption!? Oh my...
So Anti, or at least someone very similar or something, is back with Anosillus (thank you people who remembered her name!), who I had a feeling it might have been since she had the music not on her and the magical girl baton. Looks like their filling the role for the Gridman Alliance, which is a nice detail. Koyomi saving the guy is perhaps the most realistic reaction I could think of, where he considers leaving him, but then seeing how he's still alive and keeps thinking back to him and his wife, decides he doesn't want to regret leaving him to die, good stuff. The Kaiju Eugenicists building their bonds really solidifies they could be protagonists in their own way. Wonder what they're endgame's going to be. And Chise slowly looking more suspicious, means we might be getting close to some other revelation. And the opening changed, at least visually, but it still adds extra details like the shots where the main cast pulls out their Dynazenon pieces, which perfectly obscure someone standing in front of them. Really curious to see what's going to happen here on out. I have a feeling the guy Yume's sister was seeing might be more than a simple "bully." And of course, I'm not going to forget that magnificent battle either. Seeing Gridknight, complete with a rising animation, team up with Dynazenon, in mech form no less, absolutely wallop that Kaiju and have a handshake scene was an absolute joy to watch. This show absolutely kills it with the fights, and I am all for it. |

To coincide with Gridknight's debut in Dynazenon, we're getting a Gigan-techs figure of him!
Would be neat to see Tron-Model make a model kit of Gridknight, though. Would love to get the figma, but the proportions are still pretty odd to me. |

I'll never get the odd proportions that the Figma of Gridman and Gridknight have, I guess it's to make them look more anime stylized? But idk, the big shoulders are kind of like a turn off for me tbh since they're the most striking feature.

I am waiting for the big twist to happen because not gonna lie as the show is starting to really annoy me with how only a couple characters seems to care that giant monsters are destroying cities and killing people yet no one else bats an eye like this is some common thing that happens every week.
Like now I am expecting M. Bison just to respond with "But for me, it was a Tuesday". Seriously it is getting hard for me to enjoy when it seems like the kaiju and fights are a bit of an after thought. Please tell me I am missing something. Please let the twist reveal be soon. |

Anosillus the 2nd's baton twirl apparently is a nod to episode 6 of Gridman.

I think the fact that they avoid having the expected, over-the-top, really emotional reactions be a common thing unless absolutely necessary is a good way to differentiate things from typical toku tropes and acting. Yup. A comparison video showed it's basically one to one with Unizon's baton twirl in that episode.
