Yeah, I mean this episode's nice and all, but we haven't seen those two in like a month and a half.

It was a good episode as usual.

Oh boy, Gridon still exists?
That could be interesting.

My God that was boring.

Pretty much.

Had hoped to see the last of Jinba, guess not. At least next week looks somewhat entertaining, but this was easily the shittiest episode of the show by far.

Considering that Jinba Cherry and Peach both have areas where they are far more usefull than Kachidoki, I don't see why you'd think they would dissapear from the show.

It wouldn't be so bad if the action was actually done well, but it was just boring action intercut with characters saying random empty bits of pretentious dialogue.

I don't give a shit, it's an ugly suit that makes for shitty action 'cuz of it's weapon and I wished there was no reason for it to exist.

Cherry and Peach only have those abilities because random why-the-hell-not. Kachidoki could've been given those abilities. Make it even more special. Lemon had no ability, too. It was clear they had no idea how to justify the jinba gimmick since it's just the same suit with a minor colour difference, so they pulled shit out of their big bubble butts.

You know how Gaim is usually about an episode and a half's worth of content in one episode?

This was like the inverted way, a half or less of an episode's worth of developement spread thin. The Overlords were barely seen, and the stuff with Mai feels like it should've been shorter. The fight with the Suika drones was just dumb. At least Kurokage troop fights are visually grabbing because of the number of people involved. Kaito sounds dumber and dumber. The only worthwhile scene was Micchy discovering the split within Yggdrasil.

The S lock seed's power is also awfully specific to these circumstances.

You'd be nutty too if you were having around Oren for so long.

I still don't get the hate & distaste for this episode. It's still leagues better than the dance off episode where Knuckle was introduced. This was a solid episode with enjoyable moments.

Barricade64 · 04-07-2014, 06:12 PM

Same here. I felt it moved the plot forward quite a bit and the only things I didn't really care for were the moments with Mai.
