He most likely didn't know that Masamune had been plotting to become Cronus and had already attained the ultimate antibody, something extremely difficult to do without planning for it years in advance as Masamune did. By design, because Kuroto is a crazy bastard, as called out by Poppy.

Didn't Cronus say in the preview something about having the trophies they want? I thought that meant he had both Loverica's trophy data and the proto-gashats, for when the Riders and Bugsters "behave".

Hmm this is just occured to me but what if in this episode maximum mighty not reprogram loverica? will loverica still dead? or dan masamune just wait this moment because loverica really piss him off :D

I had thought of this before and yes Ex-Aid caused Lovelyca's death. I am expecting Pallad to blame Emu for this.

Lol that's explain why Emu have "what have i done?" face in the end of episode :D

Anyone think that Masamune just stopped time to set up the giant clock, candles and spotlights himself just to make a dramatic entrance? Dunno about the nighttime though. Unless he just froze time in a specific spot and just waited until nighttime to set everything up.

So what video game genre is Cronus based off of?


Makes sense for him to be an MMORPG

Augmented Reality MMORPG, yeah.

awesome episode.
just wished the fight was longer before Masamune interuppt.
Too bad Ren only lasted 5 appearances but will miss his whackiness. His death marks another serious turn of events. Too bad no last words...he just died like that.

With Kuroto's explanation about Cronus, you would think he wanted Poppy to seek out Emu because he knew Emu would be a possible candidate for Cronus and possibly win the game?
Makes me rethink that Kuroto isnt really a villain deep down...oh what the heck, he was acting like a freaking maniac for a whole 10 episodes lol.

hopefully Hiiro doesnt turn on his buddies unless Hiiro get his level 100 gashat from Masamune's secret stash or something.

Oh my god, Cronus is so intimidating and overpowered! I love it! I am extremely excited to see more of him. On another note though, Hiiro's potential betrayal next episode looks SO juicy. Time to sit around waiting for the next episode again...
