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.

Makoto (Specter) didn't appear out of suit in this episode at all (and his hair is black). Aran is the younger villanous guy, and he was the one who drew the eye and released all those Ganma Eyecons.

Fight me.

Thanks. Like I said, it happened so fast and I haven't gotten enough of a look at that guy to tell if it was one character or two. I assume Spectre is the dude in the blue leather in the trailer for episode 5, then?

Yup, guy in the black-and-blue leather suit is Specter.

You know what's really funny? Takeru acting stealthy even though he can become completely invisible with his Ghost powers and completely evade detection with them.

And he looks like he's apologizing when he walks past someone.

Yeah, I love that. Bowing and everything. He was also doing it last episode. Him just sort of still not getting the whole "being a ghost" thing is one of the better sources of humor in this show.

Four episodes in and Onari kind of makes me think of an over energetic Oren. He's bald, he yells his exclamations a lot, and claims to be a professional (where as Oren is a professional). Only Oren is gay and Onari is just slightly annoying. I love Yurusen and Gramps.

...Oren wasn't gay...

Episode was decent. Apparently I fucking blinked and missed him getting Newton, which was bullshit.
Spectre shouldn't have appeared this early. Felt crammed in. Villain was too ominous, and I just don't even know what the fuck.

Seeing Takeru realize his powers was cute. Like him bowing while sneaking, or forgetting he can become intangible.

Are you sure? The man was very flamboyant. And he fawned over Takatora. It was very obvious.
