I just noticed the sliding plate.
Looks like someone spent a little too much of their budget on the movie

Ryoma, though...Man, those weeks where he was gone? Beautiful. He's so boring and predictable as a villain it hurts. Ryoma feels like a low rent Lex Luthor.
"I'm a total monster and completely untrustworthy, but you spontaneously need me so you have to deal with it despite everyone knowing I'm going to stab you in the back. Oh? You saw it coming and had a plan? Well I had a SECOND plan because I knew you'd anticipate my first plan. Oh, you had a second plan too...Well, um...I have a THIRD PLAN because I'm just that smart and untouchable."
When the most shocking possible twist for their little alliance is that it's not a double cross, it shows how cliched the character is...

Because...shorts.

I love that quote though...low rent Lex Luthor. He really does little but twirl his mustache doesn't he?

Well, the actor for Mitsuzane certainly has learned how to do the crazy evil laugh right. I mean, seriously, he could date Gogo Yubari and it would be a perfect match of crazy laughter.

I don't even want to touch the whole Shin Zangetsu is more powerful in this episode than Triumphant and Kiwami Arms bit. That kind of makes my stomach hurt because there's no way that Kouta should be overpowered. I'm going to chalk it up to his inability to have the resolve of beating down Mitsuzane. I'm concerned though that they're gonna let it drag out the remainder of episodes until the end. At this point, I just want Mitsuzane to burn or be squished. He's getting in the way of everyone, Overlords and Riders combined. I really hope they don't try to make his manic ass do some sort of turn around. He's pretty much turned too much over to cheapen it.

Baron is once again less annoying in this episode, and more amazing. I could have watched an entire series with him and been happy.

Watching the lockseed drop from above, yes, Micchy's decent into madness, yes, the whole episode, yes.

I'm wondering now though if the reason Takatora's actor didn't get flowers is because he's still coming back, but only as Micchy's lovely hallucination.

Don't any of you know? She's a private dancer, a dancer for money, and any old music will do? Tina Turner. Respect it.

Yeah, at no point could I take him seriously in those shorts. They just looked ridiculous.

Hands down one of my favorite shots of the series, I think. Simple, quick, but very effective.

Overall, I'm just ready for Micchy to die now. I have to wonder, though, if his powering up has something to do with becoming an Overlord, since they're extra buff and he seems to be following a similar path to Redyue.

No, the sliding plate is something the drivers in the show actually have. It's how Kouta attaches the Genesis core to use the Jimba forms.

That said, it most likely is a toy, just beacuse it makes a lot more sense to grab one of the toys and mess it up than to damage the more expensive prop that goes with the Zangetsu suit. Either that or with the blank plate they just messed up one of the Kurokage trooper belt props.

Except on Hase's, then.

The pic of Hase's driver you posted certainly looks like it has a sliding faceplate to me. Why do you say it lacks one?
