Okay so that is how they get Vram, I mean Lage9, no wait: Lakia! Yes Lakia, third time's the charm. Anyway, that's how they get Lakia away from the mass-kidnapper allegations. Because luckily all the Presses he collected over weeks were just sitting around collecting dust at one specific location and not a single one was ever processed, even though they were all Lango-approved high quality materials.

Fantastic Toku logic. But hey, now he can be a good guy! And it only took like - 3 episodes. That’s fine I guess, would’ve been boring if they dragged it out longer. And he’s not buddy-buddy with everyone yet, so lots of time for him to be a bit of a wildcard still.

He also channels his inner Kurapika because in the new jelly form he can - wrap chains around his own heart, squeeze it, and that turns him into immediate cardiac arrest and he dies I mean turns him invisible. Fantastic Toku logic. Wait I said that already.

Didn’t have "Jelly man chokes his own heart to turn invisible" on my bingo card for 2025, but that's why I love Tokusatsu, you never know what wild stuff they come up with.

The action sequence was fun though, Glotta is awesome still, love the boss lady.

The end though, oof. That's how Hanto realizes? Oh no. And to be honest, he's a bit of an asshole about it. No wonder Shoma couldn't tell him. You even told yourself that his actions speak for themselves and that your own ego limits your judgment already Hanto, and your first reaction is to get up and punch the guy in the face? That’s mean. Makes for good drama though.

Speaking about good drama, Shoma did actually know Hanto's mother? So he wasn't the Granute who kidnapped her (I guess) but they did know each other? Huh.

Also, Bitter Gavv next week, and its host is Bully Maguire Shoma. Or his evil clone grown from that one hair the mad professor stole. We'll see.
