Well, LunaMetal's finisher is called Metal Illusion, after all.

There's an alien wielding guns in virtually every other Sentai.

Aside from that, this one?s very much a Shotaro adventure (guest-starring Akiko), because Philip is completely sidelined by Wakana?s upgraded ability to basically haunt him. Beyond crippling him with anxiety and fear, she also takes the Gaia Library?s safety and utility from him, so it?s full-on Withdrawn Philip this episode. That leaves Shotaro to investigate a frame-job involving a femme fatale and preyed-upon models, which? I mean, yeah, that definitely reads like a Shotaro adventure to me.

Wakana invading the Gaia Library feels like something out of a horror game. It takes a place that has always been safe and reliable for Phillip and suddenly makes it dangerous and forces him to judge whether or not the intel that Team Double need for the case is worth him risking his life to obtain. While I can't dispute that Wakana is more plot device than character, she's a spooky plot device for sure!

He did what he could with those flashbacks, but even he couldn?t make them interesting. I enjoyed the red lighting, though. Powerful imagery.

The nightclub is even called Blue Topaz, a type of jewel. Certainly a fitting venue for the Jewel Dopant's debut. Not only for the name though....

Agreed. Makura's a coward who'll only talk trash when Jinno's behind bars.
