Final Resc-I mean post!

46. We learn about Tsubasa's past and meet his sempai who started a Rescue Fire manga. But the episode is really about his sister, Nana(I'm not making this up, that's her name), who wants to be a firefighter, but Koji(Tsubasa's sempai) doesn't want her to get hurt like he did when he was a firefighter. There's a great scene, where Tsubasa's keeping rubble from crushing Nana, who's too scared to move, and he tells her that firefighters have to be brave to save people. It's a good episode.

47. The start of the final arc. Jokaen makes a plan to have the three commanders distract Fire 1-5 so that he and the Jakkasts can overtake Fire Phoenix. This episode was glorious. We learn a little about Jokaen's past, too.

48. Jokaen... Why? This episode is glorious too. The way the Rescue Fire members got into Fire Phoenix with the help of Gaia Leon and Qsuke was clever, and... let's just say, Jokaen is one of my favorite villains now.

49. Director Kamen Rider 1 shows up, and the team collect the last two blue orbs(they got the third one back from Jokaen in the previous episode). It's not as good as the last two episodes, but the ending was a complete surprise.

50. The suspense... Oh GOD the suspense. This episode conveys such faith, such hopefulness in a world of hopelessness, such will to save everyone when you can barely save yourself. It's beautiful.

51. God dammit... Why must this show end? This episode tied things off well. [spoiler]Sparing Donkaen[/spooiler] was an unorthodox move, but I like it none the less. And Tatsuya's monologue at the end... I almost broke.

I'm gonna miss this show so much. It was easily better than Rescue Force, and it might, might, be just slightly better than Ryukendo. It's definitely up there.
