I gotta go buy a bottle of glue so I can pull off the official mecha combination now!

Also, you are all way more cynical than you think the show is.

Whether or not the humagears 'can' be restored is maybe a moot point since this show has played so fast and loose when it comes to the mortality (or lack thereof) of the humagears. I don't really blame anyone for not being able to look past that, especially when it comes to Jin in particular. I myse...

Since the very final episode is clearly going to be all about Aruto vs Horobi, this episode is sorta everyone else's last chance to weigh in on the situation, and I was into it. This episode is chock full of dramatic, emotional speeches, and most of them landed surprisingly well for me. That said, C...

I was really touched by the deceptively simple message this episode had to offer. Yeah, it's funny to go 'haha Fire encouraging children to make a mess', but the episode really went all the way for it's point about how simply offering encouragement to someone, even if they're not doing things right,...

Personally, I'm not really counting on nor expecting any of the other riders to contribute much in this final stretch, outside of one or two token attempt to talk either Aruto or Horobi down. For me personally, the ideal way for this story to conclude is purely through Aruto and Horobi either decidi...

I continue to be really into this final stretch so far. With this final conflict being so squarely focused on Aruto and Horobi, I don't think I necessarily mind at this point the other Riders taking a backseat during this time (even if I still wished they all could have done more before we got here,...

We're probably at the end of these pairing Silver with one other person episodes, and this one was just as nice as the others if you ask me. Jyuru embracing that classic Red attitude by now allowing anyone to suffer even if everyone else believes it's inevitable. I'm always into that. Putting mean e...

I like the slow steps the show is taking with peeling at Horobi's character, which makes it all the more nonsensical that this is the same show that gave us Thouser's turn via robot dog. Actually, one thing that struck out to me is that this featured all our initial main characters in one episode an...

I'm gonna miss LVSP, but it was nice to see them all one last time. This really isn't so much of a 'send-off', since there's still so many threads that will forever go unresolved, but I guess I had long since accepted that. As always, the biggest appeal of the VS movies is just seeing the two (or th...

Tametomo miiiight be my favourite character? Hard to say for sure but he's definitely up there. The little funhouse adventure he has with Takamichi is probably my favourite of these Silver+Friend focus episodes. It's a mostly silly series of games, that feels a lot more heartfelt once Tame lays out ...

Horobi is just so cool. I feel like an excited five-year-old whenever he just comes in, says a line in the same tone of voice as always and effortlessly martial arts his enemies into exploding. That might sound sarcastic but I honestly am constantly surprised at myself by how much I like him for jus...

Immediate problems I have include likewise, the Ark deciding it now wants to kill Aruto even though it easily could have done so on multiple previous occasions including the end of the last episode, and the rather odd form of cause and correlation of how our new toys are created in this episode. But...

I'm gonna take a guess and say that whatever treasure Takamichi is looking for is what will allow his Mashin to turn into a robot. They're surprisingly taking their time with debuting it, favouring for now the new auxiliary mechs even though the first batch all appeared in a single episode! Not a co...

I guess aside from the landing being kinda gentle, I thought it did it's job fine of being a really intense moment, matched with the music slowing down just as his transformation disappears.

it was a slow fall for dramatic effect. What is so odd about it? This can't be the first time any of you have seen such a thing in a show or movie.
