I think, going off what Gai said an episode or two ago, is that Hiden is now offering to trade in old Humagears for ZAIASpecs. They can't legally force you to give up your humagears, of course, but oh look, Gai's spent the last 10 episodes engineering it so that, to the public, they look like death robots that could snap at any moment.

And yeah, it's like Pineapple says above. He claims to have the rights to do this, and Aruto doesn't want to go to the courts because that's no fun in a Toku show, and also no-one in AIMS will testify against ZAIA. But Gai can't legally issue a shutdown against Hiden Manufacturing because Aruto owns the Humagear patent, he can (in theory) make all he wants. All Gai can do to establish his control and petty ego against Aruto is have his two AIMS goons and himself go beat him up, and honestly I think he's only there because he loves fighting and smushing Aruto's face into the dirt.
