This show is just amazing. Honestly.



It's like I get a new favorite Rider every week. Before, Pallad was shining and now Hiiro is shining.


Emu's actor is pretty great too. Going from soft-spoken, quiet genuinely nice guy to cocky asshole like that and pulling off both convincingly can't be too easy, but he did it.

And yeah, I'm hoping Taiga doesn't die from using the Dual Gear but there's definite death flags surrounding him. Maybe they're setting it up so Nico becomes Snipe....maybe?

He was a DKHZ Bugster though, when Emu scans him in episode 5 he shows the same symptoms as Hinata did when he was infected with the DKHZ virus in episode 9. And his attacks make reference to dragons and things. Deductions can be made.

Yes please. After the catalogue leak about a certain upcoming Rider I was annoyed Nico wasn't gonna be one when she honestly should

Well holy crap taddle fantasy just straight up gives the user magic. Really hoping those powers dont disappear after this episode

[Starscreamer]

Am I the only one who was kind of hoping for a Ryuki throwback when the finisher was about to hit?

What I find interesting is Genmu needs the data from the Bugsters...and our favorite over the top hyper side girl just happens to BE one of them! I have a feeling this will play in the end...

Speaking about the Bugsters...couldnt Poppy be the bugster for Doremifa Beat? xD

its either that...or they skip to jet combat since its Snipe's level 3 gashat.

I'd doubt that. DoReMiFa Beat is Hiiro's, after all, and it's quite telling that they didn't skip Robots instead considering this was the Hiiro episode.

Of course, they're also skipping Chambara for a bit, but...eh, who knows. For all we know it's like the Collabos case and the next person to get infected gets both Chambara and Combat...

They DIRECTLY stated that Poppy was a Bugster from DoReMiFa Beat.....

Anyway, for my thoughts on the Episode, trying to avoid what's already been said: I LOVE TADDLE FANTASY!!! At first I thought it was OK, but after seeing it in action, WOW!!! Not only does this thing aesthetically look awesome in combat, but THE THING CAN SUMMON LOW-CLASS BUGSTER MINIONS!!! THAT'S SOOOOOO COOL!!! Not to mention the telekinesis & various magical tricks. It's like Hiiro doesn't even need his Sword anymore.

Now, one thing that I don't think many people have caught onto yet.....But didn't ANYONE take note on how this Bugster operates? Since it's a high level(Lv.30), apparently high-level Bugsters can do a number of things:
1. When breaking out, instead of becoming a separate entity, they literally manifest over the host
2. The Bugster can disengage through some sort of "Sleep Mode," and rest back inside their host, dormant until they restart

Now, why am I bringing this up? Because where have we possibly seen this before....? "But GloryXros, this is the first high-level Bugster we've encountered---" OH REALLY...??? Ever stop to think that EMU's BUGSTER IS ALSO POSSIBLY A HIGH-LEVEL ONE?!! It manifests "over" Emu looking like.....well, Emu, and the thing will awaken & sleep at certain times. And after all, we're talking about a Bugster that apparently can mask itself from the detection of the CR tools, and is by far the most mysterious Bugster we have thus far in the Series, to the point where we're not even sure if Emu or M is the Bugster persona. This VOTW actually left possibly one of the biggest clues on Emu's Bugster.

Wait, no, that's not the part I was responding to, but that they skipped to Jet Combat because it was Snipe's. I obviously know Poppy is DoReMiFa's because I said as much in my own post in this thread earlier.

This is what I get for my unspecificity.
