Just to clarify for those calling "plothole" for Adel killing Takeru's father.....C'mon now, this isn't that hard to understand. Takeru & Shinnosuke messed with time, so of course, when you mess with time, you screw things around. The stuff that happened with Da Vinci is simply another timeline, and in the main timeline, it was Adel. Simple as that.
Now as for it being Adel.......REALLY, WRITERS...? You couldn't be more creative with this...? It just so happens to be the main villain who killed his father...? SIGH..... The plot of Genesis was pretty much meaningless nonsense start to finish though, so honestly whether it's consistent with the series or not isn't much of an issue, because of course it's not. Anyway. Watch how it turns out what Adel actually means is Adonis was Takeru's real dad, so of course he already killed him. I actually really want that to be the plot twist here. It'd be stupid, but I want it to happen. |

Well, I thought it was great. These last couple episodes have sort of been one big story so it's kind of hard to talk about them individually, but there was a lot of good stuff here. I loved seeing some of the old VotW again and how they showed that they're actually acting on what they learned from the episodes they were in. It really fits with Ghost's themes and it's neat anytime a side character gets to come back. I wonder if only having three of them was a budget thing or just because there are only three Ganmizers. Either way, I love how they got the guy from waaaay back in episode 2. Brings things full circle, or something. Seeing Takeru's duel with Musashi was also cool, of course. I sort of wish it was just a dude in a suit still but whatever. Also, I'm gonna be so happy when Ex-Aid premieres and some of you guys can finally be happy, at least until Ex-Aid wears out its welcome too. That's honestly not an insult or anything. I can't imagine how depressing it must be to tune into a show every week and never not hate it. It's like, I'm over here having all this fun and I wonder if I'm even watching the same show as everybody else sometimes.

Also there’s plenty of Toku to watch nowadays and both the currently running Sentai and Ultraman shows are awesome in my book, and Thunderbolt Fantasy is something really different and refreshing to me, so there’s no need to think I’m depressed because the newest Rider show sucks balls.
It’s not depressing. It’s just wasting 20 minutes of my week waiting for this show to end, that’s all. |

That doesn't make it not a lazy plot development though. That's like saying 45 episodes into Gaim, "Oh, by the way, Ryoma was the one who killed Kouta's parents this whole time". It's an incredibly boring and predictable plot development and while it could lead to decent payoff, past experiences with this show make it seem unlikely.

I liked that part too. I also think the they used those three VotW specifically due to each of them representing a different VotW arc. The scientist was from the first episode of the "Gather the 15 Heroes" Arc. (Well technically episode 1 was the first episode of that Arc with Takeru summoning Mussashi, but the Scientist was the first person Takeru met in that Arc) The Space Engineer was from the first episode of the "Connect with the 15 Heroes" Arc. (Again Takeru did that already with Mussashi, but Ryoma came next.) The Girl was from the first episode of the"Connect with Peoples Emotions" Arc. |

Ohh... I didn't quite make that connection. That's really cool. One of my favorite things about Ghost is how much the premise has evolved over the course of the show, so that really does tie everything together.

I don't think that is the same though. Gaim never made a point that Kouta's parents were dead in the first episode. It's pretty lazy and straightforward, I guess, but just like with the whole Takeru's mom thing it reminds me more of Drive devoting 10 episodes in the middle to Shinnosuke's dad, and that turned out to be awesome.
That plot twist doesn't really do much for Ghost, at least for me, seeing as we're like 2 episodes from the official series finale. Once again, it could pay off, but as I've said in numerous topics, it just feels like it's too little, too late. I wish they got the ball rolling on this stuff like 10 episodes ago. Quote:
I was actually kind of worried I was laying it on a bit thick there. Really sorry if anybody was offended. I never said I wanted anyone to shut up though! I actually really like hearing everyone's opinions on Ghost, even though I pretty massively disagree with most of them.
I don't necessarily feel as much of a strong dislike for Ghost as some of the other guys do, for me, it's just a lot of wasted potential, but I'm glad you can see enjoyment out of this show where I can't.

Damn this end arc keeps getting better. Adel is just this sick sociopath right now and him taking over everyone is crazy. I love that they have been building up to this for a while and that Igor setting it up didn't like what happened. Adel taking over everyone and even forcing the Ganmaizers and Igor to obey is insanely mad. I am intrigued with the Makoto vs Makoto storyline and the connection with the Ganmaizers. I love that Makoto and Alain believe in Takeru and have changed so much. Takeru vs Musashi was great and I loved seeing Musashi help Takeru evolve more. Akari's determination is great and I can't wait to see what her experiment brings. That's one hell of a cliffhanger and I can't wait to see everything that'll happen next.

EDIT: Wow, I just freakin' realized....that's Kaido as Musashi! Was that him doing the voice the whole time? This is blowing my mind.
