This week's Try went EXACTLY how I thought it went down. I've made my complaints about this show very clear by now so I'll just say I was underwhelmed.
I got panicky during the end credits because I realised that with only 4 teams left (Try Fighters, Build Busters, Gunpla Academy and Lucas Nemesis) that Try Fighters might not even end up fighting Build Busters in the tourney. Then the preview surprised me by having the next ep be the Academy vs Lucas. Interesting twist, but now the show's either built up a rivalry thats not going to be settled in the tournament or introduced a strong character for no real reason.

If Lucas wins, that's going to put a lot of doubt in Team Try Fighter's heads because he will beat all of their rivals by himself. You know Lucas' teammates will go down pretty much right away, so it'll just be him. He wins, and it puts a huge amount of "What if we can't win?" in their heads. I bet it's how it turns out, which is ok because it still gives a reason for the rivalry to have been started and it still makes Lucas a beast.

The rivalry may not be settled in the tournament, but that's the point. It's showing that Lucas is insanely strong. It's setting up for an insane uphill battle for Team Try Fighters.

Better than last week's episode that's for sure. We finally get a shining finger reference our of build burning. Next week looks interesting but also really predictable. The Gunpla academy is going to have a hard time up to the end of the episode and then in the episode after they rally and beat lucas. Insert moral here and we're done

So theory: Build Burning has an Arista Gem built into it. The abdomen had that circle that shined the most.

That could be cool. Though that would beg the question of where it came from. Unless Sei managed to recover a fragment 7 years ago.

Yeah, the thing about Build FIghters is that they never show the same fight twice.

This is all theoretically staying within the confines of the tournament, but with only five episodes left the show is running out of time to move outside of that. Especially since it's stretched a fair few fights into two episodes so far.
