[Frontier]

Don't you just hate it when a pleasant morning and Rin focus episode gets interrupted by a rat? Especially one that has a hankering for elecriticty...with devastating consequences.

I like how Ishido's first scene in the episode is him holding a cup of coffee and willing to give a chance to the idea that there's more to this rat problem than just your typical rat.

The rare time when the rat actually IS as big as a human!

Electricamus, a new species of rat that absorbs electricity, and when it absorbs enough it transforms into...Nezutron, the Electric Rat Kaiju! I appreciate that they actually made two different suits for it's human size and Kaiju sized form, though the latter looks like it was made from some of a Telesdon suit.

Really shows how experienced Rin is that she immediately takes charge in a crisis situation and manages things effectively. She knows exactly what needs to get done and wastes no time getting them done.

You-Pi showing more of what he can do! He can douse fires, has a shield (to be used against Kaiju at some point?), and can even do computer work!

I love Arc hurting his knee against Nezutron, trying in vain to pull the cord out, and said cord preventing Nezutron from getting any closer to him.

Gotta be honest, I'm really loving Arc's "uh oh" reactions ever time he sees the Color Timer kick in.

Didn't think we'd get "people cheering for the Ulta to rally and fight on" by episode 4, but it's the perfect way to heat things up and let Yuma bring to life Arc's first form change...the Solis Armor! With the power of fists of fire like the sun! Though it's nice to see Arc still finish it off with an Ultra Beam.

I don't know why but the way Ishido talks about having more data worth investigating sounds REALLY suspicious.

Good on Yuma for giving credit to his fellow SKIP members rather than letting Arc take most of the credit.

I sense a bit of family drama with Rin and her constant moving around, but it's nice to see she's finally found roots and enjoying what it means to have a community around her.

Next week: Undersea dinosaur fight!

Enjoy watching Yuma and You-Pi excersie to the OP!
