Makoto has a connection not only to Alan but also Akari and apparently maybe even Takeru? So many questions. Looks like a lot of answers are forthcoming in the next couple of episodes, which...seems early, but better sooner than later I guess?

Decent episode. I like that they took a little bit of time with MOTW-stuff but get into the story again before it gets boring.

The Ganma and Gramps this episode was hilarious :lol

I really liked this episode. The stuff with Takeru was great and it tied in nicely with the MOTW story. While it looks cool, I think Beethoven's powers are kinda dumb. And thanks to the preview for episode 7, it is pretty much clear as day what Spectre's backstory is and why he's doing this.

Overall a very nice episode.

Soooo....it appears that Akari and Makoto are linked in a Den-O type of twist where apparently she remembers nothing.

And Takeru got his mojo jojo back. By obtaining the American Idol Eyecon. I know our hero just turned 18, but seriously, if the entire series is about him growing up, I'm going to need something more to keep me going. As it stands, he's just learning fifth grade history. Also, it's taken him a month and a half to learn that.

How does Makoto and his sister knows about Akari but Akari doesn't know them?

Could Makoto be Akari's forgotten friend?

This is foreshadowing of what could been the twist around Akari.

We know Akari doesn't believe in paranormal but what if it was excuse for her dark and troubled past that Takeru doesn't know about but it have to do with Makoto.

This is my theory.

Which, as usual, sounds kind of stupid. Not everything needs to be dark and troubled.

I know that but her excuse of not believing in Paranormal make me think that she hiding something that we and Takeru don't know about it.

I think she know about Makoto but she act like she doesn't know about him

I enjoyed this episode a lot. I think this was fantastic for Akari who keeps getting better and better. I can relate more and more with Takeru and having anxiety and fear keeping you down because I suffer from the same things and it can be tough to bounce back from but I am glad he was able to and found his resolve again. I am glad that we saw a lot more about Spectre that just him attacking Ghost for no reason, that he was friend's with Akari is interesting and that I think he's growing a soft spot for Takeru is good too. I like both of the riders so far which is awesome. I definitely feel that they toned down Akari and Onari for the better this episode rather than being over the top like they were, now they are calmer and better characters that I hope keep going through out the series. The Beethoven Damashii looks amazing and I love how it fights, I can't wait to see more of it. Well I can't wait for more.
