[Pineapple924]

I'm commenting a bit early this week because I'm watching KissAsian's RTA subs now instead of the OneDrive due to family computer usage complications, anyway on to the episode:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't really know how to feel about the big reveal this episode.

On one hand, it feels like a letdown to find out that Emu has the typical Jekyll/Hyde relationship with Parad.

On the other, it really does make sense and explains a lot of the oddities/questions that happen throughout the series:
-The reason why Emu was acting like such a jerk after finding out he has the bugster virus is because Parad was directly possessing him.

-The reason why Parad has been around since the start was due to being surgically separated from Emu six years ago.

-The reason why Emu's bugster wouldn't come out when Emu had Hiiro operate on him is because Parad was currently already outside his body at the time.

Hell their connection was already obvious way back in the early episodes when people were suspecting that Parad was Genm.

As for the big debut of Perfect Knockout (Still think they should've gone all out 90's cheese, and named it Perfect Fighter)

I actually like it a lot more seeing it in motion now. As I said in the rumor thread, I was really scared that the hair spikes would just be a flat disk that sticks out of the middle of his helmet but thankfully it's not. I was also worried that its shoulders would be the "Ixa" kind and just flop around when Para-Dx was moving his arms, but they seem to hold in place enough for me to not notice anything.

The fight itself was neat, with Para-Dx beating all three riders just like his original debut. And for bonus points he once again beats them via using a mechanic they all forgot about: Pressing the b button on your GashaCon weapon makes the attack stronger.
