Kamen Rider Gaim Episode 44 "The Futures They Each Seek" Discussion
 

Oh god please don't kill off Oren or Jounouchi, they've made it too far to die now!

Kouta, THE TITULAR KAMEN RIDER GAIM, is mortally wounded and on the verge of death. I hate to say it, but ABSOLUTELY no one is safe anymore...

No one is ever safe from The Man with the Eyesight of the Dead.

I highly doubt Kouta will die. Kaito maybe but I don't think Kouta would/will.

This isn't even knew to Rider. Kobayashi did that years ago... and Shinji wasn't just on the verge of death... *cough*

Somebody needs to recreate this and add Mai (And Asselyum from Aldnoah.Zero because why not). That would be perfect.

Damnit, Urobutcher! If you kill off Bravo and Gridon, I will never forgive you...

I really hate to say it but Bravo and Gridon just might die, but like XW1n5t0nx said, I doubt that Kouta will die.

But only time will tell.

Chucky.

Agreed. Shinji died and didn't come back to life until everything was reversed by Kanzaki's bullshit time powers.

Also, why would Gridon and Barvo have to die? They are not in the race for the golden fruit so why would killing them off make a difference?

Is it just me, or everytime Kaito goes back to human form after being Lord Baron, his hair gets a little more messy?

This episode was a waste of time. It was just fights showing off Kaito's power.

This episode was just... EPIC! And next one probably will be even more!

Looks like we finally get our Zack focus episode and it's next week. We also learned that Genesis Drivers are not DNA based - anyone can use them.

At this point, the Genesis Drivers make no fucking sense. And anyone who had one either died or had it get destroyed (its probably Minato's turn next lol)

Kouta went from giddy dork to Plant-bending Sith Lord, Kaito went from power-hungry bastard to Fangire Kratos, and Micchy went from sweet little boy to Psychopath cultist to wimpering pile of guilt and regret.

Just remember... JUICY!

Amazing what about 43 episodes can do to a character, let alone 3 main characters.

Kouta used to be a helpful idiot now he's a human inves highbred

Kaito used to be a cool asshole now he's a cool asshole that's a overlord

Micchy used to be a nice kid now he's a crazy kid that wants to be with his true love

Um you should see Kamen Rider Black, Kuuga, and Agito. This is nothing. lol.

I haven't watched a lot of KR, okay? :lol

Damn, killing the titular character and keeping them dead... That just feels weird... And the show isn't even over.

I mean, if Kouta died at the end of the last episode, sure, that's fine. That works. But there's still a lot of story left needing to be tied up. How can the titular protagonist be dead with 4 episodes to go?

Zack is the bro amongst bros

Any one thinks Zack may die?

Holy shit that was intense!

I've been worried about this for too long!

Well he has the power of the most epic bro fist.

No more Gridon and Bravo unless somebody gets them new belts...and new lockseeds :(


Also, did anyone think the untransformed fight between Oren and Yoko was pure badassery?

For the belts, I hope Mistuzane redeems himself and finds the original Bravo and Gridon belts. Remember how they get Minato to tell Oren and Jounochi that their new belts are upgraded in the early episodes where Kota's sister gets "kidnapped" made me feel that it is in a way "building up" for that moment.

As for the Lockseeds, not to worry I think with Zawame filled with Helheim plants the time is always ripe (intended pun) to harvest some Lockseeds like the good old days.

And yeah, badass fight was badass. A military professional going head-on with another professional. Didn't realise that till that fight scene.

I second that.

So it looks like next week is the all out war between Kouta and Kaito where all of their powers and forms will be used.

And there's a little part of me really hoping to see them duke it out in their Wizard and OOO's arms forms :D

My hear was pounding through the whole episode. I can't wait till Kaito and Kouta fight next episode.

Also, somehow I feel like Minato is going to die.

Gotta love how the video's screenshot is a spoiler. :lol


Man this episode screwed with me. It comes dangerously close to killing my favorite duo and has the last truly heroic Rider do a face-heel turn in the same scene. Thankfully the duo lives (though lose their belts) and the heroic Rider is just pretending to turn on the heroes, but the fact that the show has the environment where these characters can die and can change sides makes the suspense actually work.

X_X I know i'm being super impatient for something that is from a free service, but... "Where is my dang episode Aesir?"

It's kinda funny how Kaito went back to using the Sengoku Driver, even though he's way the hell more powerful as an Overlord.

"Yeah, I got all this power from Helheim, but y'kno what? I'll go back to being Mister Banna Man just for old time's sake."

Best screenshot of the episode.

What.

Even Micchy wants some of that Overlord banana.... if you know what I mean.

I reiterate: WHAT.
