ToQger Episode 23 "United Hand in Hand" Discussion
 

Hype!

Man, that was epic! I love ToQger's soundtrack btw.

ChoChoToQDai-Oh wasn't bad for a clunky robo! The stakes in this episode were pretty high, and that final battle was crazy.

Big revelation for the ToQger's. When they see that festival, and later when they all hold hands and Akira see's the rainbow... that was amazing (though almost cringe worthy).

AND NOOOOO! Grita and Schwarz! The new form for Zed is amazing though.

Looks like the next episode is the out-of-suit one!

This episode is why I cannot help but continue watching this show.

So is there a Raw out for this episode?

over-time has it.


And omg, this episode is soooooo cute! I need subs! NOW!

*sigh*

And they killed off my two favorite characters in the show. Because let's face it. Grita and Schwartz had the most character development of all the villains, so they had to go. Schwartz will most likely come back, maybe as ToQ-0. But Grita is deader than dead. I'm mean, she got freaking chestbursted for God's sake!

Love Zedd's shiny look though. Those abs!

Excellent episode !

really enjoyed station 23; moves the story along quite nicely and Z is even more of a badass than I thought.

Brilliant episode, absolutely brilliant.

All the way through Kyoryuger I felt it needed a villain death midway through to give things a bit more impact and now ToQger instead delivered what I want. Grita's story had run its course, now I'm hoping Noir will get a little more development as Z returns and Nero takes up position as his second in command. I'm betting Schwartz will be back though.

LOVE that new Z form!

Very good episode. The backstory revelations were done well and I really liked the use of line switching as a diversion. I had to knock a point off the overall score, though, for how awful Cho Cho ToQ-DaiOh looks. I always hate mech shoe power-ups and there are so many out-of-scale train cars just hanging off of everything.

That said, I am ecstatic to see Gritta go. I couldn't stand her and I will not even slightly miss the mandatory "holding the handkerchief" shot that we had to focus on every damn episode. Sayonara, Gritta. Don't let the door hit your stupid purple bulldog ass on the way out.

Oh, and Schwarz will totally be back. He's a Sentai villain: no explosion = no death.

As much as I hated Grita and her damned Schwartz obsession, watching Zedd basically Cast Off from inside her was a pretty brutial way to go. Zed's new form is pretty bad ass though.

One thing that stuck out to me…it seems that the ToQGers forgot about Shiled Ressha during that one part.



Also not really convinced that Schwartz is dead, I'm sure he'll come back.

So Toqgers' hometown is fictional? Because I cannot find that town in wikipedia! So Kamen Rider Gaim and Toqger's hometown are fictional. I love idea because This is first Super Sentai show to have their hometown to be fictional.

Um, it was the name of the festivel they attended, not their home town.

To be fair, though, all of the towns so far have been fictional places (outside of the bit where they're all filmed in the same 10-15 locations in Tokyo).

If Toqger keeps these good episodes up I won't give up on this series.

I doubt that Miss Gritta ever going to return because She was killed when Zed blow up her body

Anyway thank goodness! with Miss Gritta out of picture we don't have to deal with her crush over General Schwartz.

That will be so stupid to bring Miss Gritta back from the dead, It's Yasuko Kobayashi. She never bring back the villain ever! She killed them off (except Lila who disappear) I think the reason of Why She killed off Miss Gritta because I know Yasuko Kobayashi, She known for writing Dark Toku Show like Timeranger, Ryuki, Shinkenger, and Go-Busters. I feel that Miss Gritta didn't fit in Darker Tone in term of making it more Serious.

Anyway the backstory of ToQger surprise me which is a good thing. I see Kagura is with her family (possibly Father, Mother and her baby sister) Hikari is with his Grandma (Maybe the one who gave Hilarity his Kendama toy, We didn't see her face in Episode 7) Mio is with her maybe father (Again. Didn't see his face) Tokatti is with his big brother since both of then are wearing same jacket. And finally Right is with his mom. That my opinion.

cho cho reminds me of the go busters final combo in the show.

I totally forgot about Miss Gritta aka That Annoying Ugly Bulldog who have a somewhat crush over General Schwartz.

Miss Gritta is my least-favorite Shadow Line Villain because she never attack ToQger (Her Empress form does not count since she use her mecha to attack ToQger) and her voice! Oh my God! Her voice is so freaking annoying! What was Producer thinking about that voice! Did you know that her voice actress is 52 years old! And what was Hideaki Kusaka (Her Suit actor) thinking about being in-suit of one of Sentai's worst villainess (I don't think Miss Gritta is villainess!)

For those who don't know who Hideaki Kusaka is. He's famous suit actor for Badass Ranger and Villain like Grey from Jetman, Abare Black, DekaMaster, Wolzard from Magiranger, Bouken Silver and Last Year, Kyoryuger's Chaos and Kyoryu Gray but I think Miss Gritta is Hideaki Kusaka's most embarrassing role to suit actor. I think the real reason of why Miss Gritta is Killed off because Hideaki Kusaka couldn't breathe in that suit or Miss Gritta's suit was too heavy for Hideaki Kusaka. Look at the size of Miss Gritta! She's Huge!

To be honest. I feel that Empress' arc (2 episode arc) was mark for Miss Gritta's death because when I watch Her Handkerchief of General Schwartz fly away to river. I immediately thought "she gone! She really gone! No more to her crush over General Schwartz!" But it will be stupid to bring her back for no reason because if they did. Then the whole Empress thing will be the waste of our time

I wish Hideaki Kusaka (Again! He is Suit Actor! Not Actor playing character) could be a suit actor for ToQ 0Gou instead that Annoying Ugly Bulldog, Miss Gritta

Now I think Miss Gritta's Death got to be the most brutal death for Sentai villain in modern day because she got blow up by Zed!

Is this episode worth watching?

How can someone be this high all the time

Cho Cho ToQ-Oh Dai-Oh was a thing to behold, the episode was excellent as always, Wagon and that rope was fun..

But damn. Zed's monster form. Damn. That thing is just pretty.

So recently I got around to watching this.

Cho ToQ Dai Oh is an okay combo, Zeds new form, oh man.
