Yo, Lage9 / Vram is –actually a really awesome character! What the heck? Like I didn’t expect him to be boring or a waste of time or anything, but I did not expect them to go this hard either. And I like how they aren’t sugarcoating (heh) his crimes; I was kind of expecting him to reveal that he stored all the Presses somewhere. Does not seem to be the case.

Then again, they do seem to work together and infiltrate Stomach Inc. next week, so maybe they rescue a large amount of victims who are not processed yet, including the young man Shoma is searching for, so maybe that’s how he “makes up” for his wrongdoings? Don’t misunderstand me; I don’t “need” this to happen. If anything, I would prefer him to stay a character with a sinful past. I just wonder how much they will redeem him for kids and parents to root for him; it’s a kid’s show after all. But maybe not everything needs to be perfect, Vram is a great example for someone with right intentions gone wrong, that’s a lesson children need to learn as well. It’s healthy to think about this character and judge him yourself.

Action was awesome too, especially the very well done untransformed sequences!

Also, I’ve seen some images of toys for a “Dark Gavv”, and coincidentally our mad (?) professor grabs a hair of Shoma in this episode – guess I know who will make that belt now. But now I wonder who will wear it. No spoilers please, in case it has been leaked yet.
