[Frontier]

This was the episode where I started thinking about the Humagears in relation to Japan's propensity for wave slaves and working people to the bone, while Humagears work to a malfunctioning state without complaint, although they don't really dive that deeply into it.

Ishizumi's manga sure is a long-runner.

We don't get a lot of drill Kaijin. I liked that.

I love how Ishizumi is about to give Aruto a toy sword to live out his fantasy and Is is like "yes, let's not."

Flaming Tiger! I mean, people have gushed enough about this form, but it really just hits all the best form debut beats. It feels suitably epic, the form looks cool, it literally spews fire, even the other characters are pointing out how awesome it is. Fuwa literally becomes Aruto's hype man, almost!

"There's only one person who can stop you...and it's me!" - I mean, Fuwa is literally right there and was doing a decent job, but still an epic moment!
