[Zolda]

I have several new hypotheses:
- Now I kinda understand why Lage 9, a jellyfish Granute, uses the Doppudding RG to transform into KR Vram, not Purujelly RG. The Doppudding RG's and KR Vram Pudding Custom's motifs are based on milk pudding with caramel vla. Caramel is made of sugar, sugar tastes sweet, and guess whose name has the kanji for sweet? Yes, it's Sachika's. So mmmaaayyybbbeee they're a match made in heaven after all? Haha.
- Due to how stupid the characters in this story are, I think that Lage 9 will commit the exact same crime using the exact same modus operandi several more times, likely until episode 19-20 when he's finally appointed to a higher position by Lango.
- Lage 9 could likely be the one who gets the short end of the stick in his deal with Nyelv. His main motive is likely money, like I already elaborated above, but instead of money, his cahoots with Nyelv gives him money and death. He'd likely be killed by Lango, Glotta, Nyelv, or perhaps a new character who is even more powerful than Lango. He'd likely regret his decison to let his greed got the best of him. This could be the perfect opportunity for Sachika to take the mantle of KR Vram, since the Vrastum Gear can likely be used by Granutes and humans.
- What happened to the Darks Snacks that Lage 9 tossed aside in episode 16 @ 09:46? What if it was eaten by stray cats or dogs? Or worse, what if it was eaten by humans? They look so deceptively similar to youkan/bean jelly, so it makes sense if some random, curious kids tried to eat it. I'm really interested to see what would happen to the humans who consume Dark Snacks. Would they be transformed into Granutes? Would it cause the same effects to humans like it does to Granutes? This could be an potential plot point later, when Nyelv secret plan is gradually revealed.
- I still can't understand what's so secret about Nyelv's cahoots with Lage 9. As the CEO, Lango should know about and authorize the development of the Vrastum Gear and the appointment of Lage 9 as the user by Nyelv. If Nyelv pays Lage 9's loyalty with a huge sum of money, then Lango should know as well, unless Nyelv pays Lage 9 with his own money, not Stomach's. I'm smelling Lango is about to do something very very very stupid.
- What happened to Lango's plan to marry Shita and Jeebh off to wealthy and powerful Granutes? It's a good plan to consolidate power within a small circle of people, but Lango himself sabotaged it when his agents kicked them out of Stomach's base camp in the human world in episode 12. Now it's completely falling apart because Shita is dead and Jeebh is going crazy. Oh, and why haven't Lango, Glotta, or Nyelv married themselves off to wealthy and powerful Granutes? They're much more powerful and smarter than Shita and Jeebh, so they should be better candidates to represent the Stomach family in the upper class circles of the Granute society.

Yes, I have. Those who don't have power bank are usually casual smartphone users. I'm a casual smartphone user and I do have a power bank but rarely use it, aside from when I'm travelling. On several very rare moments when my smartphone's battery died, I usually just charged it in my car.

Sachika is said to be a social media savvy person, so it'd make sense if she often relies on her smartphone. I have several friends who are social media addicts, and all of them have power banks, at least 1 unit with 3000 mAh capacity. Her position as the owner of the Hapipare also requires her to be ready when random customers need her to do random jobs, so a dead battery would definitely make her lose potential customers and income. In business, lost connection = lost money. A power bank is very cheap these days, so it's a no-brainer for any business owner to have one. The fact that Sachika, a small business owner who owns a jack-of-all-trade shop, doesn't have a power bank is a proof that she has no brain in the first place, like 99% characters in this atrocious story.

The seminar was about elderly people getting targeted by common scammers, not otherworldly invaders, haha.

Shouma's altered biology? Well, Hanto's biology is also altered. Hanto thinks that Shouma is just a modified human like him, a human implanted with a Granute's internal organ. But, the fact is that Hanto's altered biology only enables him to transform into KR Valen and use Gochizous, and no other abilities are granted. The fact that only Shouma is able to talk to and command Gochizous and give free Gochizous to Hanto like he did in episode 10 @ 20:32 and episode 15 @ 02:21 should've warned Hanto that Shouma is more than just a modified human. If both Shouma and Hanto are humans implanted with Granute's internal organs, then how come only Hanto got the short end of the stick? How come only Shouma get so many perks? If Hanto is still a person who has normal, healthy, and well-functioning logic, rationality, and common sense, then Hanto should've already concluded since several episodes ago that Shouma is more than just a modified human. Hanto should've already concluded that he and Shouma are not equal. Even Hajime the kid of the week in episode 1 was able to instantly connect the dots and correctly guess that Shouma is not a human. He was even able to correctly guess (again!) that Shouma's species (Granutes) eat humans.

The ultimate red flag was in episode 14 @ 07:26 when Shouma showed that he could read the ransom message in Granute alphabets written by Shita's and Jeebh's agents. That scene alone showed that it doesn't require Albert Einstein-level of IQ to read between the lines and conclude that Shouma is both a Granute and a human. So, the very very very obvious inequalities between Hanto and Shouma should've provided all the reasons from Hanto's perspective to suggest that Shouma's abilities are inherently nonhuman and Granute traits. See how you've just made the most faulty, erroneous reasoning and checkmated yourself?

Shouma: "i wAnNa ShOw HaNtO tHaT i'M jUsT a HuMaN lIkE eVeRyOnE eLsE. i DoN't WaNt HaNtO tO kNoW tHaT i'M nOt a pUrE hUmAn."
Also Shouma: *casually gives free Gochizous to Hanto
Also Shouma: *talks to Gochizous right in front of Hanto's eyes
Also Shouma: *commands Gochizous right in front of Hanto's eyes
Also Shouma: *shows that he can read Granute texts fluently right in front of Hanto's eyes
Hanto, perhaps between episodes 20-25: "sO, yOu'Re nOt a pUrE hUmAn, sHoUmA!? yOu'Re hAlF-gRaNuTe!!!"
Me: *facepalms
"No shit, Sherlock."

Yep. As always, the most fundamental law in KR Gavv's story applies:
Common sense = 0
