KR Fourze 18 released
Gentarou once again shows his idiot savant tendencies. He sees right through Ryuusei, which is cool.
Oh, I didn't think of the significance of it, but I guess he does introduce himself as Kamen Rider Meteor. I guess he wasn't so against being called a Kamen Rider after all.
I wish Shun had said "Let's stuff him in a locker." Oh stereotypes.
Wait, the Meteor Driver was delivered to the hospital ROOM? I thought it was left in front of the hospital. Who's delivering this stuff anyway? Someone who's so shy he can't open the door and just hand it to Ryuusei in person?
Libra's random transformation are still pretty awesome, since it still catches me off guard.
Lynx went down pretty easily.
Oh man, Sono-chan was sent to the phantom zone?! Nooo!
And I believe Virgo is the first Horoscopes to be introduced whose human identity hasn't been revealed yet. Unless he's Oosugi or something, which would be weird. Weird and awkward.
Good thing Yuuki doesn't go "Ryuusei kitaaa!" "Ryuusei's here? What?" I guess the difference is that inseki is closer to "meteorite" while ryuusei is closer to "a shooting star"
Machine Massigler is the name of Fourze's bike, it's only been referred to as Machine before. It's based on the Japanese word Masshigura: 驀地 【まっしぐら】 (adv,n) at full speed
And Meteor's bike is called... Meteorstar, to the surprise of no one.

Re: KR Fourze 18 released
Playing catch-up. Even though I haven’t commented in a few episodes, I like how the show is developing for the most part.
I don’t think we’ve had a Rider be so deliberately two-faced since Kusaka, which was a character I despised, so the jury is still out on whether I like Ryuusei. Regardless of whether I like him or not, the character is interesting and is capable of putting new plots/subplots into action, which should ultimately be good for the story.
So, the Chairman is probably not behind Meteor. He didn’t answer Sonoda’s question, but he implied that Meteor was unexpected. I don’t think the Rabbit Hutch switch came from the same person as Meteor, though. Ryuusei doesn’t know things that Kengo was able to learn fairly easy (for example, the Switches are powered by Cosmic Energy or that Rabbit Hutch existed), but on the other hand Meteor has someone assisting him. If Tachibana (Fourze’s, not Blade’s), was behind Kengo’s switch, you’d think that he would have contacted the Rabbit Hutch crew before now or filled Ryuusei in about a few more details.
Man, just when you think Scorpion is making a comeback, down she goes. She’ll probably be back eventually since the Chairman is collecting Horoscopes, but I guess we won’t be seeing her before the final arc. Unless they decide to hide Virgo’s identity by putting an illusion on her to look like Sonoda. Or Virgo and Scorpion are secretly identical twins. Hey, it always worked for soap operas.
Any chance that someone in the Club figures out that Sonoda was Scorpion when (if) she doesn’t show back up at school so close to Scorpion being defeated?
The Club members must be enjoying their Libra scenes. Considering how closely Libra copied clothing, mannerisms and even catchphrases, I wonder about the extent of Libra’s powers. Is Hayami keeping that close of an eye on the Club members, does Libra’s power give some of the memories of the person that’s being imitated, or is it just the magic of television convenience?

Re: KR Fourze 18 released
So we pretty much figured Libra's MO. He gives switches to people who are annoyed by the things around them, and occasionally takes the shape of the thing that annoys them the most, to ensure that they grow farther from humanity and evolve into Horoscopes.
You know, I found it funny that Ohsugi seemed to fold the shutters explicitly to let the ninjas in lol.
If Ohsugi really was Virgo, then his infatuation with Sono-san would've been a lie.
It does make me wonder whether Virgo is somebody we already know. It's possible that it is indeed a male. Now THAT would be a real surprise.

Re: KR Fourze 18 released
Gen can be pretty shrewd sometimes, since he knew Ryusei is keeping things from them. But he's still an idiot.
Nice to see Ryusei kicking ass untransformed. And meteor's hyakuretsu ken is very cool. Meteor really took 4z's fights to another level.

I don't really think so. They already did the gender bait and switch. If they do it again it wont have the same impact.Dengar wrote:So we pretty much figured Libra's MO.

Not to mention that transvestite/cross-dressing villains are a dime a dozen in Japanese fiction.

Re: KR Fourze 18 released
I was minding my own art and there he was...
So if I'm to understand Donna Troy's logic, from his point of view the jedi are evil?
Its really disappointing that he doesn't make warbling noises out of the suit. Why even have him fight out of suit if he's not gonna warble?
Fjorzengaard, you're not quite connecting with someone by seeing their two-faced nature.
Remember this week's lesson, Japanese schools need to be leveled to the ground for them to consider closing.

Re: KR Fourze 18 released
I'm really surprised that Gentarou didn't call him out for why he hit him, unless he secretly knows he is Meteor and is just playing along.
And Sodona getting owned again is no surprise. Both times she didn't run away she got owned. But this banishing thing though, pretty hardcore.

Re: KR Fourze 18 released
This is the first time the Space is Awesome actually zoomed in on Fourze instead of out.
Wheel was awesome, I hope there is a limit break with Fire. Fire Wheel Limit Break!! Where Fourze flips through the air and turns into a disc of doom.
Aside from that I'm sure Gentarou knows that Ryusei is Meteor. He would have recognized the punch a mile away since that is the kind of guy Gentarou is.

Re: KR Fourze 18 released
Aries can save Ryusei's friend? Must be a lie... or there could be a twist in the story and Ryusei's friend might be one of the horoscopes :O

Re: KR Fourze 18 released
It is now official. Kamen Rider Meteor is my new favourite secondary rider. I loved seeing him fight his way through the Ninja like things at the school without being transformed. Sure he's kind of an ass but he also whoops so much ass in such as bad ass way I can't help but love him. His freakin' Limit Break with the million punches thing was so kick ass and done much better than in episode 17. By the way, ASS, just in case I haven't already said it enough.
Gentarou once again proving that being in idiot has it's advantages, what with discerning that Ryuusei wasn't being real with him then accepting him when he got punched because at that moment he was being real with him. This is one of the many reasons I like Gentarou. I don't know how much I like the Wheel Switch yet, I'm on the fence with it. Overall this weeks episode was just plain awesome and as always much of that was because of the amazing subs TV-Nihon puts out. Thanks for everything you guys do.
