For clarity's sake I should probably mention that if they waited even a couple episodes longer than this to do something with this plot thread, I probably would agree it was pushing things, but as it is this feels about right. Earlier would've been nice too, but I don't find what we got unreasonable.

Yeah but that's the thing, do you really think Champ would let that be it?

Yeah, more or less, actually. In terms of "solving the mystery" as it were, I think he was pretty content to just say "Yeah, you killed my creator" (and again, Stinger basically said he did it) without really caring about the details, and as far as the the "getting revenge" part goes, I think Champ has clearly been at least a little conflicted on the matter ever since Stinger joined up with the team properly.

Remember, this is a guy who's all about justice. I always got the impression from Champ's tone whenever he's talking crap about Stinger that he's sort of in denial. Wanting Stinger to be the guy that allows him to finally get his vengeance, but also begrudgingly accepting that he's a Kyuranger and thus someone chosen to help save the universe. It's not even just on the merit of him having a Kyutama or anything. He saw him save Kotarou and his brother while also bailing out the team, himself included, back in episode 5. Not to mention his utter lack of remotely sketchy behavior since.

I don't really think any of this is speculation on my part so much as it's just plain in the narrative, but even if it is speculation, there's at least as many ways for this to make sense as there are for it to not.

We agree on tons of stuff, I'm pretty sure of that. We just never make that big of a deal about it so no one remembers

Hey, it's not my fault you decided not to post in the Ex-Aid discussion threads!
