Fourze Episode 38- "And The Winner Is..." Discussion
 

Who will become an astronaut?

Aquarius is still hot!

Discuss both!

huh,so that's what claw does.

Saw the un-subbed RAW.

Absolutely AMAZING episode. Didn't even need to understand the language to understand what was happening, the emotion, etc. This show continues to deliver fantastic episodes when you least expect it. The scene in the rain was probably the most, if not 2nd to most powerful scene in this entire series.

Kamen Rider Fourze is setting the bar very high in terms of making super dramatic situations for characters who come across as anything but.

11/10 if that's possible.

I enjoyed this episode. Yuuki on the bridge was the only part that got to me, really.
The scene in the rain was great, a nice touch was when Fourze used Cosmic's Limit Break, they didn't go into space.
Kind of a shame that we didn't get to see Aquarius's Supernova, but since the Supernovas have been getting smaller and smaller (Wasn't Aries's just longer horns?), I guess it's no real loss.
I can't wait to see Leo with gigantic blue breasts. -3-
Also, yay for Libra not becoming a complete tool for Gamou.

Elleen's intolerable shrieking aside, that was a great episode. I don't know how I manage to keep being surprised that this show can have a really strong emotional core. It's kind of crazy to think that we're nearing the last ten episodes already; I'm really going to miss this show when it's all over.

Was anybody else watching the scenes of the characters running around in the mountains and thinking "how awesome would it be for Hibiki to show up right now?"

Also, that fucking hill again. I swear, that damn hill overlooking the sports fields has to have been in every single Heisei series by this point.

Superb episode. Eleen is definitely one of the best characters in Fourze, even with her two-episode stint. I like the fact that everyone in KRC likes her, and even gave her the friendship handshake at the end. Even Yuuki has tuned down her silly antics massively, and I hope this episode will mark a personality growth for her from now on. The battle in the rain was pretty epic, but a bit underwhelming given how quick it was. I guess after Fourze took out her Aquarius pods, the fight pretty much ends there.

Btw, with Gamou now possessing the Aquarius switch, he has become alot stronger because it can now heal him even from Limit Breaks. And I'm glad that Hayama is secreting scheming against Gamou, because he knows once the last Horoscope is found, Gamou will have no more use of him. I think he may become Uva of OOO at the end.

Great episode, the lack of bgm really helped convey the emotion in the end fight sequence.

Aquarius, you shall be missed.

Agreed. And the lack of Gentarous' usual line "Our friendship will take on the universe" also conveyed this. It was a fantastic episode but I hope crazy Yuki is gone for a while. Eleen will be missed. Most of all though, now I understand why the SHF Claw Module is being included with the Cosmic State Tamashii stage. It probably comes with an extended version to attach to the Barizun like in this episode.

I keep re-watching this episode. Saw it subbed finally too. Just absolutely love it. This show amazes me at how it can be totally goofy (ie: Ryu being disqualified for his "temper" in a brief shot of him screaming in the room with Meteor henshin music playing) to being totally serious (Gentarou vs. Elleen). Only two zodiart horoscopes left!

I bet Kengo is Gemini ... ;)

Amazeballs, as usual!

We're approaching the end of the show now and we still have Sonoda (Scorpio) and Natsuji (Cancer) in the Dark Nebula, Tojima (Capricorn) and Erin (Aquarius) both with their memories wiped and Tatsumori (Aries) is in a coma. It could be argued that none of them are actually evil (well, it'd be tough to argue that about Natsuji and Tatsumori, to be fair) so could we expect some of them to get their switches back and to fight on the side of the Riders in an epic finale? Perhaps including Gemini, Taurus or Pisces? Would be pretty damn awesome in my opinion :D You could even bring back some of the vanilla zodiarts with new switches.
