Yeah, Hiromi is a very popular character, but it’s clear the writers have little, if any, idea of what to do with him. This episode is more of a meta commentary on his place in the show (he was almost booted out of FENIX, but kept on because the higher ups saw his potential, like how the character was devised purely to die early on, but was spared because everyone liked his performance)

Also, I don’t think two extended scenes focused on Sakura and Aguilera across two Hiromi episodes were really necessary (beyond the heroes getting the latter’s help). And sadly, that’s one reason Sakura turned out so divisive. Namely that not only will these scenes NOT be decreasing in frequency, but they’ll be increasing in screen time taken up.



Ikki: It’s Ikki’s…

Vice: And Vice’s…

Both: Stamp Navi!

Ikki: And today’s stamp is this one!

Mogura!

Pitch Black! One Track-Mind! Up Ahead! Mole! Hole Zone!

Ikki: Mogura Genome allows for a strong penetration and fast spinning action. When used by Hiromi-san, it equips him with the Demon Digzon to use its ability.

Vice: “Digzon”? Is that even a word? Like, in any language?

George: In all honesty? No. That’s inspired by the Legend I based this on.

Lockseed: Am-az-on!

George: Kamen Rider Amazon, real name Daisuke Yamamoto. He crashed in the Brazilian rainforest as a baby, with his father and mother dying in the crash. He was adopted by the local tribe, eventually being entrusted with one of their two great treasures, the Gigi Armlet. He returned to Japan to use this power against Geddon and the Garanda Empire, who possessed the other armlet.

Amazon: Ah-Mah-Zon!

(Enter Hiromi)

Hiromi: Did you say… the guy on my Vistamp… his father died? (Screams and runs out of the room)

Sakura: I can’t believe he got worked up over a Legend Rider’s backstory. How immature.

George: Yes, indeed. To end this segment on a lighter note, how about I mention that the other Armlet was named Gaga.

Lovekov: Love! Game!

Vice: Until the next instalment, Just Dance!

Self-production notes: Ending on a Lady Gaga joke was NOT inspired by the Fourze quiz segments. I came up with the idea shortly before getting that far into those. But it did change what songs I referenced.
