[Xtreme RX]

Yay, we're finally at the focus episodes!

Great episode and we got development for Melt. I like how this wasn't outright the "feel, don't think" message Sentai relies on far too often - instead it was about confidence. Melt needed the confidence to trust in his friends so they could rely on his plans. And he found his confidence through Master Blue, who appeared before him despite not opening a chest. Really solid character work and the action was awesome as always. I also like how it was very much focused on blue and red did not steal the show at any given moment.

Interesting that inanimate objects can have negative emotions too. This way we are shown what happens when the Minasaur's host dies without outright depicting a person getting murdered. And it's a clever cost-saving method to have the Minasaur be a chest and not an elaborate monster suit.

KishiryuOh Triken looks great and I love how it moves. The sword work is elegant and I love the finisher. It was a bit brief but I am glad we are able to see each individual form.

The ending was a bit of a tearjerker. You can tell Melt really loved his Master. I think they are hinting that the Master's are still around as spirits in the RyuSouls.

Next is Asuna's turn to shine, looks like it will deal with some pretty heavy subject material and we get to see KishiryuOh Ankyloze.
