I just call her a rose because during her debut, she used rose petals to summon the others to her.

Anyway, 19. Kuuga doesn't die!
It being only 19 episodes in, I knew he wasn't gonna die, but it was both interesting and kind of lame how they pulled it off. He just...Gets better. Could've been handled a lot better. What they did handle nicely was Ichijou's and the doctor's reaction to his death. They were rough and heavy, but not over the top and dramatic. Nicely done. They dropped the ball on his sister and Satonowakonawako or whatever. They just reacted with "Eh. He's Godai and smiles and stuff" to a major drama bomb.

Oh well. We get to see some nice Training form action and Ichijou's reaction to seeing him alive was kind of sweet. To be entirely honest, this was the first episode that had me interested from start to finish. The Grongi were speaking English (Japanese), so their scenes weren't just bathroom breaks, the tension of Godai's death and how he could possibly come back was well done, and it was just a nice ride overall.

Aside, something that peeves me is that the police really can't do anything. Yes, I get that if the police could handle it with just the gas bullets and grenades, Kuuga would be pointless. Still though, it makes Ichijou's job seem worthless when, even with a firing squad, he can't even bother one Grongi.
