The Pass that will change the future!
The Imagin are here to stay, especially one of them. Who is the hooded man? What is a Singular Point? Will the next station be the past, or future? So Let's Watch Den-O 1-3!

Let's ride the Denliner! ... again... hopefully it'll fare better this time.
1: This is an excellent debut episode, it was fun, had good action and introduced the core concepts without feeling exposition heavy. Characters wise I really like Ryutaro and Hana, as such Momotaros victimizing him in this episode and next ones really annoy me. But it is a very good episode. 2: The story was simple but well done, Ryotaro changing the past for better shows how much of a cool guy he is, and counter-trolling Momo at the end was awesome. ![]() I like the idea of traveliing to their most important memories, it allows the time travel memory aspect to be present in all arcs but keeps it to a small timeframe, so they can continue to use the same locations and sets. 3: Never cared much for this episode, it had Momo unwillingly entering a theft plan and stuff Last edited by algo448; 05-28-2014 at 10:49 AM.. |

The first three episodes of this show were probably the weirdest for me, because when I first tried watching it, I was not into them.
There's some ridiculousness to be had in that damage caused in the past somehow creates mass destruction in the future. As if a building has been standing for years without supports only to collapse at the exact moment Ryoutaro needs convincing. Which even the writers seemed to realise as in later episodes stuff just dissapears. (though sometimes the whole "well okay if that scafolding didn't exist, how did the guy get two stories up.") There's also a sense that they weren't sure of the tone, like when that lady gets dropped, and the uber-sob story of dead mothers. And yeah, Momo being a thief just kind of is a weird episode. |

The whole thing about time travel is that different properties/franchises set different rules for it. Back to The Future, The Time Machine, Den-O, Quantum Leap. Den-O tried to set down firm rules in the early part of the story but never quite nailed it down as the show went on. Destroying things in the past in essence steals all of the time that would've elapsed between that moment in the past and the moment in the present the Imagin came from. It ruins everything that came between.
Look at it this way and hopefully it won't induce headaches. Time progressed normally as it was intended, until a moment in the future where an Imagin forces it's way to the past. Up to this point history has unfolded naturally. Now they've inserted themselves into a past event to wreak havoc thereby altering the history that proceeds from the event. So those ripple effects are felt at the exact moment the Imagin left in the present. Hence why the buildings and such disappear. The explosions thing is just for dramatic effect as they clearly let go of that later. But the basic premise for why things are destroyed/disappear is the same.

...Man, this wonderful time tripping series. How I adored and cherished Den-O so much that I never wanted the climax to end. Will always love Ryutaros as my favorite Imagin though.

Fun to see this again. First couple are weird since its just Momo and it seems like there is a different voice when he is possessing Momo sometimes.
Other than that I have missed this show, and if I make it the whole time without buying a Den-O belt finally, I will laugh. ![]()
