wow cant say I EVER expected that to happen

Yeah, that was damn good. The only complaint I can really levy against this episode is that the cliffhanger doesn't work with the preview for next week's episode coming right after.

Well, it works on the kids. To them i bet it seems that Kengo takes the Fourze Driver and becomes Cosmic States when we all know other wise lol

It'd be really awesome if Tachibana completely tossed Ryusei at which point he would become Fourze to make up for what he did to Gentarou. Though I doubt they'll ever kill the main character in a rider show.

It was a powerful episode and a powerful moment when Meteor was ready to land the last punch, but hesitated, and then did it anyway. He didn't kill Gentarou accidentally by using too much force, he fully intended to kill him to save Jirou. That's crazy and awesome at the same time. Now we know that at pretty much any time since his first appearance Meteor has been better and stronger and fully capable of defeating Fourze single-handedly.

I did like that they avoided showing Gentaro.
If they could have resisted showing Cosmic states, it would've been much more effective.

Tokusatsu has a bad habit of spoiling upcoming episodes for the sake of merchandising.

And this is another example.

Awesome episode, glad the mystery is finally over still. Im surprised at how shocked they were but I guess that's one of the problems with dramatic irony. I like the Aries horoscope much better then I thought I would too, very nice design. Roll on next week.

Man, you have no idea how much I'm hoping that Yuki takes on the Fourze Driver, especially after how she's basically mirroring EVERYTHING Gentarou does when he transforms for the first time this episode. Of course, it won't happen.

But the thought with Ryusei becoming Fourze as atonement? I would REALLY dig that. Would be a VERY unexpected move.

Definitely the best episode of Fourze yet. Everything has been building to this for weeks now, and they couldn't have handled it any better. Roll on next week!

Also, Yuki mirroring Gentaro during the henshin sequence was far too adorable :o

This is definitely the most pivotal episode of the series: Aries showing his face (and despictable personality); Meteor attacked Fourze (and apparently killed Gentaro); and Tachibana took away Ryusei's ability to henshin into Meteor, and his secret ID is revealed to the KRC at last. It doesn't really get any better (or worse) than this. Now I really want to see ep. 32 and the fallout that will evidently came as a result of this episode.
