Episode 46: The Appearance of a New World

An extended action sequence that sets us up for the final stage of BIMA-X.

It's the sort of episode that can be summed up pretty quick: Reza raids the prison where his parents are being held, and gets into a fight to the death with Zacros.

And yeah, it's very simple in that regard, but there's alot of nice character bits to help keep things afloat. Like Zacros referring to Reza as "Commander Azazel" which calls back to when Azazel was the leader of Shadow Crisis.

Speaking of Shadow Crisis, it was cool to see that Iron Mask didn't just blindly go with what Rexor said. Iron Mask knew that something was obviously up and reacted accordingly. It's refreshing, given the trends of of some other shows I've seen recently with their villains.

So in the end, what is Vudo's' grand plan? To smash the two worlds together using the energies generated by the Power Spots, and to have their own "Vudo Power Stones" gain full power as a result. And you might think "Wow, that'd probably result in a ton of casualties" and, yeah, it probably would. The Vudo Empire are the bad guys, afterall.

Anyway, the episode in itself is overall fine. It's the first stage of the final battle, and it does what it does well enough.
