Well, that was great! From the nightmare of Hotaro and the important alchemists sitting on thrones in hoods there is a very strong Saber vibe. It also appears that Sabimaru really needed to be saved now, given that he was weakened to the point that Dread lost to Valvarad. However, this is at least understandable, unlike Minato. In previous episodes he lost to Clotho, but in this one he managed to detain three sisters at once. Is it really all about the spear?
But seriously, based on his behavior in this episode, I don't think Minato is Gilion. Too sincere. Unless he is playing with his own memory. But this is already a mystery for the future.
By the way, speaking about the future. Houtarou's dream almost came true. I wonder if this is just a coincidence or if his vision for the future is not limited to new suits?
Let's move on to the form. It looks ridiculous, but the transformation is beautiful and the finisher is one of the best in the franchise. For my taste. Now I'm looking forward to other X-forms.
And talking about them. The next episode promises an X-Rex that eats people. In past threads, the show and its character have been condemned for their unwavering belief in Chemies' innocence. Well, here’s a reason to doubt her. Although Houtarou has dealt with unfriendly and disobedient Chemies before, I wonder how he will get along with the ferocious dinosaur.
P.S. The Kajiki were used as comic relief in this episode. I expected him to have a more important role. And so he participates only because of the UFO.
