Kamen Ride Ghost Episode 7- "Quick Trigger! The Legendary Gunman" Discussion
 

Takeru chases down a new hero while Akari & Onari track down the Mysterious Man in black. Will they learn the secrets of the Ganma???

Oh I liked this episode. A lot happened but it all felt like it had a purpose. Lots of revelations happening with the antagonists now. The most startling one probably being that Saionji has a coverless Driver all hooked up to his briefcase and can apparently draw out Eyecons the non-evil way. I was wondering where the Driver used to make the Megauruoda was gonna come from, so...there I guess. Exciting stuff.

They've also started shilling Genesis, so goodbye half of the opening for now. I think the pv after the episode showed some new forms for the Da Vinci Ganma, looks considerably than the goofy thing we've seen thus far. His face also kinda looks like Necrom, I think, so that's...huh. Probably a coincidence.

I kind of feel like one of those two Musashi transformations was meant to be Beethoven at one point, but they opted for the former because it was cheaper. A lot of plot going on in this one though, so I can't wait for subs.

Yeah, the second Musashi was weird. Robin, Beethoven or even Newton would have been much better fits to fight an airborne enemy. They would have all required cgi, though, so you're probably right that it was a cost based thing.

I just realized that Musashi is just about the only form so far that doesn't necessarily require CGI in battle. That certainly explains a lot.

I hope that Takeru will discover about Makoto and him saving his sister. You don't think Makoto blames Takeru's father for what happened, do you?

I would agree. That's what happens when you try to squeeze in as much as you can for the 20 minutes. We all should be surprised though that this is a 2 parter, pardner.

I'm sure he does, if only because Wizard showed us what happens when you get sucked into a demonic portal.

Looks like Velma and Scooby were semi-helpful for a change this episode. But ruh-roh! Takeru finally has decided to grow a pair. Maybe that will actually hurry him on getting the other Eyecons.

And in other news, StarNinger was shown to Like this episode.

......I miss Drive.

Evidently so does Ghost, because they're just now whoring out the new movie.

Good episode. We finally got our first cliffhanger and two-part story. I like that the show has been largely episodic so far, but the idea of having some more serialization sounds good.

Makoto being a previously unmentioned childhood friend of Takuer seems pretty forced and random. They really should have set that up earlier and not four episodes after Specter first arrived.

I disagree. I mean, yes, it does feel kind of forced and overly convenient to bring up like this, but I wouldn't say it hasn't been set up previously.

Specter wasn't even properly introduced as a character until episode 5, where we had him visit the temple and even tell Juicy Kid about it, which kind of implied his familiarity with the place. And then there's all the stuff in episode 6 that hinted at him knowing Akari and Takeru in the past. To reveal in episode 7 that yeah, they indeed knew each other, doesn't really seem that out of place. Could have been shown better than it just being brought up for plot convenience, but yeah.
