The scans are also showing us what is either a new, female Crystallian (either Oradin’s wife of sister, presumably) or Mabushiina in a new outfit in flashbacks (which is unlikely).

Also, Dark KiramaiSilver (KiramaiMetal?)

It's the queen/Oradin's wife/Mabushiina's mother. They don't say her name though, just referred to as the queen, and this must be a flashback scene since it has young Mabushiina on the bottom of the picture. The scans point out that Takamichi's quest to find the treasure may be linked to the queen. And it seems like Shovellow will gain the ability to change into a sledgehammer at some point. As for Takamichi, they don't say much other than what is going on. My guess is Garza tampers with his changer. Oh, and Shovellow's weapon form is called Yellow Stone Hammer.

Oh no! Don't tell me Takamichi's gonna join the Yodon Army and will be fellow Kiramagers' enemy, just like what happened to Hyuuga/Black Knight II, who left and betrayed the Gingamen by fighting against them and joined Bucrates so that his Earth Power was dissipated and won't return to the Gingamen until Chapter 50 (the very last episode of GingaMan), where his Earth Power was restored. So much betrayals for next month! First Oradin, now Takamichi? That's gonna be a long ride until next year!

I'll probably watch this after Ryusoul on DVD next year. (Or sooner if COVID lifts before then so I can start streaming again.)

If Shovellow becomes a weapon then what replaces him as the left arm?

Garza is an intriguing character. He hates weakness and was jealous of big bro Oradin for ascending to the throne. However, he's willing to use those he deems weaker than him through deception, such as betraying Freezer Marrsk and giving Takamichi bad advice about not relying on others. The Kiramagers help each other to shine at their brightest while Garza sabotages their success to make himself appear brighter out of spite. I think that must be connected to his Calamental.

Only Mabushina can break the spell & make things right with her adopted brother! End the grudge princess!

Well I hope you like the ED for this show. Because this week’s episode will be the last you’ll hear of it until episode 32. The next 8 episodes will replace the ED with character songs, which was previously done in Gekiranger and Go-Onger (and considering how those shows went down, I’m worried for Kiramager’s success now).

Episode 23 will end on Inase Minori performing “Crystal Signal”

Episode 24 will end on the Kiramagers (as an excuse for Mio Kudo to show off her mad drumming skillz. The main vocalist is Taketomo) performing “Play Courage”

Episode 25 will end with Rio Komiya performing “Hirameking! Kagayaking!”

Episode 26 will end with Rui Kihara singin “Bullet! Shooting Star!”

Episode 27 will end with Kihara again singing “Winding Road” (Maybe Sena’s actress can’t sing?)

Episode 28 will end with Atom Mizuishi singing “Perfect Blue”

Episode 29 will end with Mio Kudo singing “Dreaming a Miracle?”

Episode 30 will end with Pikotaro singing “It’s Not Hakase, It’s Hakata! That’s Even Minami”

And episode 31 will end with Shoji Kohei singing a yet as unwritten song.

The said songs mentioned here, unless otherwise noted, will probably be heard on the Mashin Sentai Kiramager Character Song Album (either on CD or on Spotify Japan), which will probably soon to be released by Columbia Japan Music (under Sony Japan Records) in 2021. Music sales in Japan has been down due to COVID-19 Pandemic. We'll wait for further updates of Columbia Japan and Sony Music on the said music releases. Of course, the titles, artists and lyrics of the songs are subject to change.

Last time a show did this where they played the character songs after every episode was Gekiranger if I recall.

While the new female villain commander Yodonna is a greater threat, Mashin Sentai Kiramager will release a DVD that is available only to the government offices and are non-profit screening only. It is called, "The Traffic Safety Of The Machine Squadron/Mashin Sentai Kiramager". Of course Juuru Atsuta/KiramaiRed, Tametomo Imizu/KiramaiYellow and Sena Hayami/KiramaiGreen are there to teach the kids about the importance of following the traffic safety regulations to avoid such incidents on the road during the COVID-19 Pandemic. This DVD is aiming at preschoolers and elementary school students. It's like Gekisou Sentai CarRanger that taught the same thing 24 years ago (1996) and guess what? Juuru, Tametomo and Sena's colors are represented by a traffic light. Hence, they are called the Traffic Light Land Team! Juuru is symbolized by Stop, Tametomo is Wait and Sena is Go. Coincidence, isn't it?
