Kamen Rider Build Episode 27- "The Counter-Attack Hero!" Discussion
 

The battle royale between regions is currently a tie, one win per Rider.

To end the war, Sento must fight the deciding match against Gentoku- and Build's only hope may be an untested new device...

ok wow that was weird and good. Though stuff seems to really be happening. Also i really wish i had a score card of where all the bottles are because im lost right now as to who as what and where

Next episode must be sad for Sawa. What's gonna happen to her? Pls no death.

I hope
1. Sawa will die to make things more complex (Nanba child Loyalty) ' .'
2. We will know more about Nanba child stuff from Sawa

Yeah, we really need a 'COUNT ZA BOTTLES' segment.

2 things: The RabbitRabbit transformation reminds me of a rumour about a Super Rabbit add on for the bike and this episode feels kinda pointless. It's just the Seito arc and Sawa's betrayal all over again

Don't know if that's considered spoiler or what, but Taki Yukari has been very active on instagram since the start of the show, often posting videos with Takada Kaho (Misora).
But now it's been a while she didn't do something like that.

Doesn't necessarily mean there is a death flag or what, but maybe she will be away for some episodes after her betrayal.

im guessing Sento knew Sawa would betray him again which he was why he allowed her to take the RabbitRabbit data but later would surprise Rogue with TankTank as seen in the next ep preview.

Sawa may try to leave...and either she will or she will be convinced to stay.

Judging by just the raw first, I'm immediately glad we can actually hear insert song, unlike Ex-Aid where most of the time, you couldn't even tell that the insert song was even there.

Those death flags are pretty big, overall really enjoyable episode, I love the look of Rabbit Rabbit and the sound effects used for it.

And we have our first insert song of the season, took quite some time for us to get one, I was starting to worry though the soundtrack has been pretty good so far regardless.

Banjou is easily becoming one of my absolute favorite secondary riders in the series overall, he is just a great guy, at the same time it feels like Engine and Remocon took note of what he said at the end of the fight, if it goes anywhere though we will have to see.

Sawa is clearly setting up something to stop Nanba, sending our Mitan fanboy to deal with something, and clearly in a violent way since he put his driver on and charged into a building.

Now though, who is going to die, they are spewing death flags for Sawa, but at the same time it does feel like they are laying it on pretty thick.

Last episode, I was kinda disappointed that Grease won because it meant that Banjo had to lose and I really didn't want him once again getting stomped on. I'm glad they went in an entirely different direction with it. He really should have known better than to believe him, but he meant well and if anything, it means he loses in a way that makes him better, rather than worse.

ffs, Over-Time also apparently can't spell the word, 'Rogue'.

I don't understand why so many people can't spell that word.


Rabbit/Rabbit was pretty cool.

The gun shooting Rabbit/Panda/Hawk was a surprise.

I'm kind of surprised this episode didn't actually resolve the whole tournament thing, but nonetheless it was enjoyable as usual. Props for having Ryuuga lose because the bad guy exploits his selfless side. Obviously he can't win or Sento doesn't get to... well, Sento pretty much explained all this in the actual episode, but it speaks to how consistently strong the characterization in this show is that they didn't just have him get beat up.

Over-Time's made a ton of little mistakes with Build. It's likely just down to how unusually fast they've been getting the episodes out, but I still have to scratch my head at stuff like in episode 4 when there's a reference to a company called "Pear Shipping" when their logo is literally a cartoon bear. Like I get that ペア and ベア look really similar written down but come on guys.

oh yeah I wonder what that was about? I forgot about that part. (distracted by the fighting.)

Beautiful. This episode is just beautiful.

The reason why the Hazard form looks so incomplete, being just helmet changes, was because the form was incomplete to begin with. I mean granted most of us suspected it already, its a really nice touch to have it confirmed.

As for Grease, I'm kinda guessing Sawa actually sent him to free the rest of the Nanba children, she wanted out, but needed to complete her mission in order to distract the Chairman from her true motives. Utsumi's look at her though, seems to suggest something else.

And if Sento was smarter about having data stolen, I'm willing to bet that TankTank's data was hidden from Sawa, hence Rogue would not be prepared to handle TankTank.

RabbitRabbit reminds me a bit of Ryuki Survive, which is cool! I'm hoping everything with Sawa is going in a more interesting direction than just her having her redeemed. I just really don't want that for some reason. A heroic sacrifice sure, but not just a redemption! I'm really waiting to see what Blood Stalk is up to though, it has been a while since he last ruined everything.

Also AAAAAAAAAAAH! (This comment was added by my sibling.)

Fell behind by a couple episodes, but just finished catching up. Loved this episode more than I expected. Ryuga's reason for loosing by being tricked rather than just getting his ass kicked again by the newest upgrades was pleasant surprise, and I'd been really looking forward to RabbitRabbit, and so far it does not disappoint!

During Sawa's conversation with the company president, they seemed to indicate that he was holding something over her. That she did not want to obey him, but she was being forced into it somehow. My guess is that he sent Grease off to take care of whatever he is holding over her. It's actually a pretty good plan. His part in the tournament is done and no one seems to think much of him going off somewhere to rest or whatever.

Good episode overall.

Glad Ryuuga didn't job to Hell Bros but was emotionally exploited. Gives justifiable reason for loss.

Love the RabbitRabbit, also love the TankTank.

Sawa might die, sad.

Now that subs are up, I liked the episode as it shows Ryuga WOULD have won had he not been tricked. Though I really don't like how Grease thinks Ryuga and Sento are a couple and calls them gross. I know it's Japan but Japan's pretty bad at stuff like this

I was going to say that there could be reason that Grease might die but then I saw an image which straight up deconfirmed that so...

...really good episode. Really liked how the build up to the first transformation of RabbitRabbit was handled and how they cut to Gentoku and Sento outside of suit during the fight to prove that this fight had become more than just ending a war, it has effectively become a personal battle and a conflict between what Sento used to be like in terms of ideals and what he is like now.

I especially liked it when he wanted to do things his own way and then Gentoku calls him out for pulling out the Hazard Trigger. "And yet, you continue to rely on Katsuragi's inventions"... before immediately being proven wrong by the new upgrade of Sento's own making. Always funny to see Gentoku immediately contradicted by anything he's said.

Now, what I'm wondering is, will the final form be something Sento makes or will it be something created by the Pandora Box when all 60 full bottles are inserted into it?

The moment that happened, I thought "you couldn't do a harmless scene like this today, because someone on the Internet will complain since everything is offensive now." Nice patronizing too, cutting them some slack because they're not as "advanced" as you.

I thought these were kids' shows. Kids think that stuff is gross. Get over yourself.

No, no they really don’t. That is an absolutely crap justification for a shitty joke that came out of nowhere. People have every right to be annoyed by that sort of thing.

Homophobia is disgusting and teaching children it is anything approaching alright is deplorable.
If it was because 'kids think romance is gross', then how did Shinnosuke end up marrying Kiriko? Explain Medic and Heart? Or, hell, Brain's love for Heart?
Or all the lingering hugs Misora has with both Sento and Banjo?

You couldn't do a scene like this because it's wrong. Get your bigoted head out of your arse.

Wooow that escalated quickly.
I was not shocked by this scene and I actually found that funny.
It would have been a " ho gross" between a man and a woman, nobody would have made a fuss.

It's just complaining to complain IMO.

It was not trying to be offensive and they should not apologize just for the sake of politcal correctness, let's just respect each other and enjoy a great show.

I'm not saying Japan isn't as advanced lmao, just that more often than not, I don't notice well done diverse characters in Japan which is likely due to their homogenized country. Though it's got a surprisingly good handicapped character with Edward Elric in the manga...
Back to the point, calling a specific kind of relationship gross IS offensive and it's disappointing as a LGBT fan. I liked Brain and Oren wasn't too bad imo so seeing them take a step back is disappointing to me. Oh, and homophobia and stuff is something one is taught, not what you naturally have. Get over yourself.

So what sort of errand do you think Grease was sent on? Cause he went into that building guns ablazing.

I think he will be freeing children?
If you look at it, we still didn't have the Children trop in Build for the moment...or very briefly compared to previous Kamen Rider series...

Cool upgrade, ruined by a silly cartoon sound effect.

Just because something is acceptable in your society doesn't mean it applies to all societies.

The scene was shitty and wholly unnecessary.

Please can we now move on before things get even more heated?

sort of my thought on the matter too.

Can't hold everyone in the world to the standards of one small part of the world.

And there's no proof that any part of the world is, "right". Cultures are all different, that's what makes them interesting.

The world would be very boring if we were all the same and thought the same things.


Anyway the show (as always) continues to be fantastic and riveting and I look forward to every episode every week.

Doesn't mean we can't be disappointed either. This isn't even that big of an issue, y'all are acting like I'm frothing from the mouth when I said I liked the episode as a whole but that this ONE line was disappointing to see

^^ Isn't it wise to listen to the staff, at this point? I don't think anyone here wants warns or bans over this.

In my defence I didn't see there was another page, nor did I not notice there were posts above mine until you pointed this out

the more important question is....







...when does the SHF of Grease come out? :D

I think Seito Arc will be finished in Episode 28. From Episode 29, I think the storyline will be entered to Nanba Arc.

If Cross-Z Charge Figuarts release in July, maybe Grease figuarts release will be around in end of this year....

the real question is does he have the tank up his sleeve and is just buying time ? or is he going to get beat

i don't like how they can just install a patch and he can stop rabbit rabbit but we will see

Based on the preview, and the episode proper, I think Sento is aware and has countermeasures.
