THIS EP! HOLY MOLY! First of all, this episode slapped back all of my opinions about how I dislike the way Ark was portrayed with its manipulating and calculating power. Because, man do I LOVE how pragmatic the Ark was in this episode. It was as if Evolt stopped playing around and went to serious mode. I rarely see such a villain like Ark, who doesn't give a moment for our heroes to breath or transform. It was this episode that cemented how Ark didn't give a sh*t for humanity to survive. That shot where he cancelled Fuwa's transformation and went for the kill, that WAS brutal. I think the Ark was fed up after waiting Aruto transformed to Metal Cluster Hopper, accompanied by Thouser' dance, in the previous episode.
Now for Zero Two. For the longest time, I really despised this form as much as I despite Zi-O II. However as time passes, my opinions about it start to warm up and I do like and enjoy Zero-Two by large margin. Even I started appreciate the sleek and slim body of Zero Two which I thought was a weak follow-up from MCH. If Toei wanted, they could make a cluster clutter of Final Form but I respect their decision to go back to the basic for this instance.
At first, I also dislike how basically Zero-Two just copycatted Shinning Hopper's ability. But after thorough and multiple rewatching, I started to find how distinct Zero-Two's ability. Obliviously, they went an extra mile to use TWO Zero-Two's suits to emulate the superspeed and Zero-Two's ability to counter the Ark's prediction. There's a small detail in Enchilada's GIF in how the Ark couldn't read Zero-Two's movement. There was an obvious delay in Ark's movement because he acted based on what it PREDICTS and not what is actually HAPPENING.
Basically, I like to think that Zero-Two's ability is more of a reality bending or simply making impossibility to be possible. Like making the binary code to 020202, making the Ark having a tremendous lag, and having a body double which in reality NOT possible. But it DO happened and it IS possible. Unlike Shining Hopper's superspeed and calculation, Zero-Two basically willed something like miracle to happen! It's no wonder why Zero-Two was made from Izu reaching more than Singularity because for such a lifeless robot, of course, it was impossible. But it WAS possible! If Takeru said 'Humanity's potential is infinite!', then I would say 'Humanity AND Humagears' potential is more than infinite!'
Other than that, this episode made me realized how much I love seeing Aruto and Izu on every possible scenes they had. They almost feel a good old-couple together, even Aruto like to crack a joke like an old man too. It was heartbreaking to see Izu started begging Aruto to open his eyes. It was as if an old wife had just lost his beloved husband and life partner. If I was Izu, of course, I wouldn't easily forgive Aruto for basically tormenting me in a never ending nightmare like that. Aruto legitly MADE an almost unforgivable sins not unlike Gai. But it was just so cute to see those two together in every possible moments. I hope nothing bad WILL happen to either Aruto and Izu.
Fun fact too: During the filming, Izu's actress, Noa Tsurushima, forced herself to cry too much to the point that she couldn't stop shedding tears. Because of this, the staff had to take an immediate break to comfort and relieve the girl from the weight of the scenario.
