KR Gaim 17 released

[Revorse]

Does anyone else hear that?

Yeah. Just went back. He said it all singsong like. 12:29ish.

[takenoko]

Okay, luna hears it too. Good catch!

I think it's strange that Ryouma made the Sengoku Driver compatible with the Core Slot or whatever it's called, but had no idea what the result would be. Like... he made this thing, he must have designed their armours and the various Arms as well, but he's all "this was a very interesting result" over Jimber Lemon.

And Micchi is a dipshit. You can't have everything, brother, you're going to have to pick a side someday, and the longer you put it off the harder it will be when the issue is forced.

Yeah I find it weird that Ryouma created that slot anyways.

[Kogashi]

Professor Sengoku strikes me as the type who would do as many different things to his invention to connect to everything he makes from that point on, or alternatively he would make his follow up work link back to his original product, just out of boredom.

[squashy]

Micchi had it easy this time, but you gotta wonder how he can save his ass the next time.

Hey next wee

k is a Walnut guy! Nutty brothers reborn?

I'm not the only one who loved the shootout battle between Malika and Fourze? awesome! But what sold it for was how each was analyzing the other like Kouta comparing Malika to Sid while Malika thought about how much the power-up parts made Kouta stronger.

About the core-slot. It actually makes sense. I assume Ryouma wanted to use the sengoku driver still, but the company said it would cost too much to make the belt then the slots then the energy lockseeds. It's a possibility right?

Most likely, Ryouma had never tested mixing the lockseeds. Or maybe the actual result is exceeding his simulations XD

i think it fits with his character. he is the kind of guy who is constantly going "what would happen if i do this?" and see what happens. as such he probably was thinking "what would happen if i combine regular lock seeds with energy lock seeds?". he has no idea what is going to happen, and is extremely happy when there is an unexpected result, because that means there is more research he can do.

[Glutinus]

Didn't post a lot so it would be also about episode 16.

I secretly hope we won't see what Mitch has seen in Hellheim forest, but I guess that everything will be explained. And just by seeing this show rythm, it will be soon !

Oh god, how many combinations can exist ? Can you really mix all the Lock seeds you meet ? And then if Gaim can take Budou or Durian lockseeds later in show. And would it be the same with Baron ? So many possibilities !!!

Just episode 17 and we've already seen 10 different Riders. Guess we have to wait episode 24 or somewhat to see another ones ?

HOW FREAKY is Minato smile when the giant peach covers her head.

Ho ? I wasn't that excited about this show, but I really like the fact that Minato is a real rider by her own ; always complain about the other rider girls I have seen until that.

I'm happy that Mitch has not turned his back to Kouta yet. The later it will be, the more exciting it will get !

[Ambadi]

Ep 15: KR Sigurd
Ep 16: Lion Inves, Zimber Lemon Arms
Ep 17: KR Malika

Spoiler

future eps: KR Knucle, KR Duke

Can they keep this up for every episode? KR Gaim's production cost must be breaking some sort of series record, I wonder if this means we'll get a low-budget KR series next season (like Go-Buster after Gokaiger)

[CuervaLocura]

I'm glad my fears about Malika are crushed and her overall fighting style is more "Garo" like.

so, it's possible the sengoku driver doesn't perfectly protect against the stuff helheim fruits do to you, thus why they tried to make better belts and artificial lock seeds, and they upgraded Guridon and Bravo for their own safety?

They could pull a Blade on us when the series ends. I mean, they talked about someone who'll be chosen by the forest.

[Actar]

In my opinion, Ryouma invented it, but hadn't bothered to test it out yet. Since Gaim started using it, he's taking the opportunity to collect the data.

I agree with this. Ryouma has implied in all previous mentions of the Core Slot that it's a recent development, that he had it locked away, and that it somehow ended up in ~test subject 01~'s hands, along with a Lemon Energy Lockseed.

Spoiler

Personally, I still believe he set it up on purpose to get the data he needed/wanted without having to clear the use of a test subject with Takatora.

[Dengar]

I don't think Sagara's in on it. I think Sagara, Ryouma, Takatora, and arguably Cid are all doing their own thing.

Maybe we could even add Micchi to that list.

[locuas]

I think, so far, Malika is the only person in Yggdrassil who is not doing her own thing...and that's because she is doing what Ryouma tells her, who IS doing his own thing.
