Well, if the writers are trying to be predictable or troll the viewers then Gentoku might be bat and Souichi might be snake. Build vs Smash might just be their mad experiments.

"My daughter needs to live as a shut-in because Faust abducted her for her powers"

"I'm completely fine with her being a super-famous net idol though"

Yeah sorry, that isn't really working for me :lol

You could argue that they don't publish her whereabouts but wouldn't you be afraid that an organization such as Faust could just track that shit?

Also, Sentou has all those bottles, including Lion and Cleaner which according to the toys is a Best Match, yet he hasn't tested this as of now? If the guy's that smart, why hasn't he tested every possible combination of the bottles in his possession yet? Also, as Fish Sandwich would say, the letters give it away.

Don't get me wrong, I'm fine with the show introducing the Best Matches when it wants to and Ryuga figuring out every Best Match at lightspeed is hilarious, but they really could've solved this situation a bit better.

Lastly, the owner was the astronaut who found the box and created the walls? Damn. And he did it because? Martian mind-control? What's going on? They made this a lot more complicated than it needed to be, and now we have more obvious riddles that won't be solved until its convenient. I mean that's the entire reason the owner didn't tell Sentou from the beginning too, what the fuck.

This is all way more convoluted than it needs to be really.

Anyways, that's all I can criticise, the show is really fun. And I agree, Blood Shark, eh I mean Stark! ... it's Stalk? Okay then. Anyways, that guy's cool. Fun villain. Kickass design too.

TBF, stalk does make more sense then stark in regards to what both words mean, so far his behavior matches it as well.

I just get confused about how to comment to this show...
I get what they are doing but i just kinda "not-believable" in way i think kiwami describe it perfectly
-like sentou is keep henshin in front of people and "advanced" robot that i assume has camera while he supposed to fugitive.
-He figure out best matches when the gimmic giving away the letters
-also new one the owner cafe and misora that tecnically fugitive but she is like famous in the internet and the owner that like he is reposible for freaking sky wall !!!

Again i get what show wants too its just not really tha convicing and neat when i watching it.... but i still watch it because i still think this show still can be improved

My theory is that Misora doesn't exist. She's a fragment of SMASH (hence the bracelet), and the owner is some form of Gaim type overlord of the Pandora's box.

All that nonsense aside, I love the W feels they get out of this series. I feel like they smash a lot of troupes from all series together.

I wonder how strong the possibility of Night Rouge being the Owner is, especially now that we know that he is or use to be working with Faust.

It makes more sense that he's cobra since he wanted him to be build and cobra tested him twice this episode. Bat might be the mustache guy that looks like kamen rider ketaros. Since they pops up randomly, it wouldn't be too far fetched that he transform and catch up to build at the end of the first episode. Btw The pandora box reminds me of the motherbox in the dc movies.

I don't know why, but NinninComic felt way too brief. I need moar of it. Also I'm guessing Over-Time used "Stalk" because his motif is a cobra?

They used Stalk as the official romanization Toei gave is Stalk. Granted, Toei gave us Gord Drive and TaJaDol, but Stalk makes sense

Another really enjoyable episode of Build. Blood Stalk was cool, NininComic is a neat form, Sento and Ryuga continue to be a great duo and next week is looking to heat up the drama between the two. With that said, the pacing of Build is really scaring me right now. Like I'm really worried that the show is going to eventually burn out in its plot.
