Yes, yes it can :lol

"Hi, I'm Hank Hill. We've had a lot of laughs tonight, but I'll tell you what's not funny: Pinecone abuse. If you are a Pinecone and being abused or know a Pinecone being abused, please call 1-800-YGG-DRIL."

The kurokage troopers are fine:lol

They are wearing armoured rider suits after all…Kouta must be perfectly aware of how much punishment those suits can take, thus he doesn't have to worry about holding back or anythin.

Although I do have to wonder how much Yggdrasail pays it's troopers.

Anyways, the point I'm trying to make is that the Kurokages don't died, but are in fact just fine and dandeliner. :cool:

Man, this show just keeps knocking it out of the park. At some point I really need to stop worrying that it's all going to fall apart and just have faith in the show to maintain this level of quality for the whole season. :lol

I quit worrying about the show when the toys started becoming hard to find. The biggest problem these shows have is when Toei and/or Bandai buts in. As long as the toys are selling, they're likely not going to bother the show.

Also, I've been watching a few Urobuchi anime lately and only one made no sense by the end and he didn't directly write that one (though a lot of his tropes are present in it).

I don't think the show's going to get Hibikied, but I've seen enough Rider shows go south - and Gaim is so damn good - that part of me can't help but fret that we'll get a bum ending like Faiz or an actor will abruptly quit like in Den-O or the plot will fall apart like Fourze (I think that last one is a long-shot st this point, thankfully). I just really don't want to see Gsim not live up to the standard it's set so far.

True. Week in an week out Gaim delivers and can be argued that it outdoes itself every episode. So it would definitely be sad to see it decline. Then again it's hard to say if it can stay going up on the track without falling down at some point.

The show is great in the here and now. Enjoy it.

Even if Gaim does the most spectacular nose dive, it has still already secured a spot in my top 5 just for being so good in a time when current toku is getting so boring to watch (especially Kamen Rider).
