Well, it's a pretty good episode. Kumade made a strong debut, but quickly faded into a supporting character. So a more focused episode is definitely needed. In fact, despite the humorous delivery, the topic is quite serious, as Gozyu Polar is truly very lonely. At the very least, Bun Violet had a life and adventures in space, while Kumade was simply whisked away from his time. So his resentment towards TegaSword and desire to take the fate of the world into his own hands are understandable. Although I didn't think he was so insecure that losing his cloak could hit him so hard.
In any case, Kumade and Bear Kuma's relationship in this episode is incredibly sweet. I even caught Gotchard's vibe, with his friendship between Hotaro and Hopper-1. And the inclusion of Goode Burn at the end was also very fitting.
I also really liked how Hoeru pointedly helped his comrades with this episode. What's special about Gozyu Woolf is that, despite understanding nothing about the topic, he manages to get right to the heart of it (in most cases). And here, Hoeru unmistakably recognized that the real topic of this episode wasn't fashion, but friendship.
Still, the events in this episode seemed very rushed to me. Perhaps such a plot wouldn't have prevented it from being split into two episodes, but at the same time, it could have robbed it of its charming lightness. So, most likely, it simply shouldn't have been Ribbon of Destruction's debut.
Speaking of which, this sweet, restless creature with terrifying strength is a very good addition to Bridan's team. It's a good thing she appeared closer to the end of the show, as such active characters with a pronounced childishness can become irritating if you watch them for too long. Moreover, she's connected to the secret behind Jun's malfunctioning powers, which will undoubtedly play out in the future.
But of course, it's hard to ignore the elephant in the room: Sumino's absence. It's a shame it happened this way. The interesting thing is that among the first episodes, there was already one where she and Rikuo appeared only in costume, and that episode wasn't about Gozyuger, so it's not all that bad or radically different. Still, the cutoffs are noticeable and interfere with the enjoyment. We'll see what Toei comes up with next.
