A really intense and emotional episode, with the best final battle built up in all Heisei Riders up to date! That's really something unexpected for me, coming from a fruit-themed rider series. And the way Kouta belt it out full force with Kaito is extremely exhilarating, and this is how they should have made Ryuki vs Knight years ago.

Though I hope they don't pull Ryuki's ending
Spoiler
where everyone got revived right at the end
. That would totally ruin the show.

Gaim seriously have the best Rider battle of all time yet. I have never felt so hyped up over a Rider battle.

I'm really sad Gaim is ending, but I hope it goes out with a bang.

My first post here, hello everyone.

Oh man, that was very good episode. So... Zack is dead, but he dies as a real warrior in order to protect what he belive. Now everything in Kouta hands. It was irritating that recently he was like "please stop, please don't, why you do that? that's not right". He AT LAST made a decision to fight against Kaito. I hope it will be cool battle!

Relationship between Youko and Kaito not convinced me. Her wish was just strange. When she died I was like "oh, another one".

And what about Mitchy?

If I'm not wrong, Kiwami arms is the seed of the Golden Fruit. I don't remember if it is Roshuo's own or New fruit but I remember Sagara taking only a seed.

I don't recall it being a seed, rather, a portion of it's power. But yah, Ryouma and the others knew it is just a portion of the true power of the fruit, and since now it's taken the form of Mai, Kaito would want the whole thing.

No, it's a key seed! Fruits Basket doesn't clip onto anything, even though it has a shackle. I feel mislead, like everything I ever thought I knew... is just wrong now.

You know what they say. If a Lock Seed can be opened by a bunch of Sengoku Drivers, it's a pretty shitty Lock Seed. But if a Key Seed can open a dozen Tears to Helheim Forest and turn you into a weird Nobunaga reference, well, it's probably a pretty good Key Seed.

It became a lock seed/ key after Sagara turned it into one, it was a fruit first xD

Kouta eating the fruit was interesting just because ... nothing happened. We knew he was changing but we didn't know for sure he was already changed. I don't think eating the fruit even gave him the power to open horde-quantity cracks. I just think he needed a snack.

Speaking of changing since Kaito keeps going on about having to find the strong, I thought maybe he would force Zack to eat a fruit and see if he was strong enough to absorb its power without mutating. It seems possible that using the drivers to sort of innoculate the body against the full mutagenic effects of the fruit is what happened for both Kaito and Kouta. (The one guy way earlier mutated of course but he'd only had his belt for a relatively short time and never used any of the high power fruit.) Compared to the overlords, who by their wildly varied appearances seemed to have all mutated from the fruit, our 2 guys are doing better.

So, I was just on TvTropes, and it seems the SDF member we see talking to the group at DruperS was Leo's actor from Fourze.

Roshuo takes a little piece from center of the apple. I'll say it is a seed. A little portion of power that will take root inside of you...
