Observations:
I think i get how the production of heroic eyecons goes. A subject that has a sincere connection (appreciation, it seems) to a particular spirit gets nudged by the Ganma's mindfuck power into channeling that hero's characteristics, which strengthens the bond to the spirit. This can reach a boiling point, when an eyecon can either be produced on its own through magic, or helped along by KR Ghost's power.

As for the pacing comments . . . it went by a little fast, but any longer and it would have dragged. They hit the points they needed to hit and moved on, allowing us to get to the fight and further down the overall story of the series.

I enjoyed the Urusan scoffing at Takeru as he was almost trapped by the falling city block; he forgot he can phase through matter.

Speaking of which, Takero still tiptoeing around Metal Gear style even though he's invisible and can phase through matter is always amusing; he still bows to people as he sneaks through.

Specter is gonna have some badass music.

Question:
The Robin form finisher multiple shots were fired - did he clone himself? If so, where'd that power come from? Were they just trying to illustrate his focusing his aim, or did he really copy himself, because that power can easily be broken and OP.

Why the fuck is Old Man fucking with Takeru?

Yeah. It looks like Robin's Driver Omega Drive allows ghost to clone himself briefly and rapid fire shots at the enemy. This episode had so many OOO references in it, I wouldn't be surprised if Robin was only given that ability to directly mirror GataKiriBa.

This episode was pretty good. Probably my favorite Ghost so far since some of the plot seems to be beginning to unravel. I don't mind the way Newton was introduced, really, it was used well enough. I don't even mind that it's a two parter since I feel this episode has a pretty good lead up into the second part.

Interesting that Sage seems to have granted the title of Kamen Rider to someone else besides Takeru...but then again, I suppose that's the only way to get a Ghost Driver. I wonder what qualifications made Spectre and Takeru worthy enough to become Riders in Sage's eye.

The preview indicates that the mysterious guy knows Spectre. Maybe he and the mystery man were fighting him before Ghost or maybe it was something else. I think someone said Spectre reminded them of Ren from Ryuki and judging from Spectre's words in the preview, I can see that may be the case. Maybe he became a Rider to save someone else's life?

Good episode. Newton coming out of nowhere (especially with the Drive reference) was kinda stupid, other than that I enjoyed it.

But now I need to wait two weeks before seeing Spectre in action? That sucks.

I love the cord that played during Specter's ghost grab.

I love Yurusen, he/she's easily the best character on this show.

SHF Ghost needs to come with a little Yurusen as an accessory.

I would say Gramps is the best, just because how crazy the role is and how well the actor pulls it off. And I fully suspect him to become a lot more serious and important over the course of the show, he heavily reminds me of DJ Sagara.

This. Even if it's just a first run bonus, they need to include a small Yurusen figure with a stand so I can have the little dude next to Ghost in my cabinet.

Not a bad episode, better than three at least. I will say that Spectre was kinda weird in how they showed him. That whole day to night flash showing was just weird to me. When he actually appears it's decent, but I dunno, kinda wish he just walked onto the scene and just took the Eyecon and left without saying anything. Oh well.

Not a fan of Newton form to be honest. I think it looks a little silly/dumb.

I'm a little more bothered by the fact that Newton apparently happened out of context with the rest of the show...

Okay, this was definitely an episode where the show's fast pacing got problematic. Two new Eyecons, debut of the secondary Rider, and a standard MotW plot were way too much to cram into 24 minutes. It wasn't a bad episode, but everything in the last 5-6 minutes felt incredibly rushed. The biggest problem is I can't tell how many dudes with blonde highlights there are - was one of them Spectre and the other one mysterious villain guy, or was that MVG who drew the eye symbol and made all the little Eyecons. It went by so fast and I've seen so little of the bad guy that I honestly can't tell whether it was the same guy or different ones.
