As kinda rushed as Rio getting the DoRinki was,they did explain that it is achieved by rage so I easily buy it.

GekiViolet's design is so cool,with the very tribal warrior design of it.I don't really understand the connection to the gong and fighting ring,but whatever.I do like his worrying about ruining the team's flow by adding himself on,it was a really good bit of character.I wasn't big on the whole werewolf thing though,it didn't feel as big as it could have been.It felt kinda tacked on since there was no sense of urgency to deal with it until Long provoked it.I was also hoping for a split second when we saw Gou summon GekiTiger and Jaguar,that he was gonna have an all violet GekiTouja.

I loved Bae's backstory,I was wondering what his deal was since he said he was involved in the GekiRin Rebellion a few eps back.It's kind of a bummer that he's the way he was because of a botched technique,I thought there would be a little more to it.I also like the reasoning for why he has to hang around Mele constantly.Also past Mele,WOW.Not to steal Switchblade's thing,but yeah HOT.Kinda want more of Mele with her hair down.

I was also digging on the design of the MOTW for 27.The ocean themed old west outlaw look worked so well for me.

And we're seeing GekiChopper already,I was kinda thinking we weren't gonna see him until at least 30 or at least develop him for a few eps first.But no,he's already got his changer and uses it in the next ep.Whatever though,I'm sure his introduction will be pretty cool.And his last name is essentially "finishing move",pretty bad ass last name.
