Huh, I guess they really did kill off Fumi-baa. I appreciate that they took time to flesh her out and make her a likeable character before they dropped it on us, makes her death all the more potent. You could see it really shook up Alain.

I really love the Shiritori stuff at the end. Alain you so silly XD

They killed off the only likable character in the series (minus Yurusen). Guess I can quit watching Ghost now.

Also, the way Alain walked in while eating takos. What. The. Heck?!

Was a pretty good scene. At first I thought Alain got the box of Takoyaki, that Fumi-baa dropped, on the ground...but at the end he had gotten another fresh box...
Wonder where he is getting his fix of free Takoyaki since he literally has no money and has been given free meals by her kindness.

Surprise to be seeing the Base Form of spectre and ghost being used more often this late into the series, when theres Toucon Boost and Deep Spectre, which we haven't seen any possible side effects of it yet.

My thought process before and during the fight scene, "Yes Alain is in the zone" "Epic slow entry walk" "He's in Civ clothing! and carrying a box of Takoyaki!" "Epic unmorphed fight while eating the Takoyaki" "aww support no more epic...no wait MORE EPICNESS" and so on.

Out of all the supporting cast we've had over recent Rider and Sentai Years I can't remember any that had a bigger impact on the world than Fumi-baa did, I mean look at the amount of people that showed up to send her off, that plus all the fleshing out the writing team has done with her made this two parter a feel fest. It made me realise that the underlying message Ghost has been trying to get through, the whole hearts connecting thing has fit the series and while most times (i.e the hug power) have been tough to get through times like this with Fumi-baa, Yuki's father and Alain understanding what a human heart is were really really good and felt like that message fits.

Also was anyone else surprised that the writers remembered that in Ghost's appearances in movies and in Drive he could levitate like that? plus while I really like the MV for the Opening song (plus the song itself) I felt like it lacked the impact that Gaim or Drive gave, but that's just me

In the end I have only one negative thing to say, Houdini was wasted on this two parter, it's like someone just wanted to have confetti explode out of no where and Yuki draped in Chains (making me expect Chain Shadow to show up humming his tune)

I forget who was in charge of the Drive episode, but in either case, it's more the director than the writers. Ghost's episodes 29 and 30 just happened to have Koichi Sakamoto on them, and well, wirework abuse~~.

Kamen Riders have always used a belt to transform. If Alain's item of transformation is a bracelet, is he truly entitled to be a Kamen Rider?

I'm starting to not like / feel apathetic towards Ghost (apart from Fumi-baa's death :( ). I don't like the fact that it is starting to feel more like Fourze in ways it shouldn't have. This is not a high school drama!

Oh and the three Riders' clothes match the colors of their base forms now (Ghost: Orange-Black, Specter: Blue-Black, Necrom: Green-White).

Most likely scenario was that he cooked it himself. We'll never know though...

What a ridiculous allegation.

Necrom really needs power up badly, heck he even rarely get to use Sanzo or Grimm anymore.

But still, that takoyaki-eating-while-wearing-casual-clothes is easily his best scene.

Nice episode.

Takeru is seeing memories. Was he meant to die to gain this ability? I think his arc is next.

Alan's arc is finaly over! It was a good arc overall but it dragged at times.

Kanon is going to get a role boost. Not I that hate her, she's more for backstory than anything, but she is one-dimensional.

Overall, the series is my 3rd favourite,behind Kabuto and Gaim so far.

At the very least Necrom deserves a bike of his own. Plus a super form.

Take a shot whenever someone says "kokoro"!

Really great episode and fantastic conclusion to this arc. Still very sad that Fumi-baa is gone, but damn, she influenced so many lives!
Loved the fight with the Ganmaizer. Alain has grown so much since the beginning of this series and it's great that he such an amazing story arc. Also like how his slogan is now "Listen to your heart!" It's small touches like that that show how fleshed out a character is.

Really wondering where the Takoyaki is coming from. I wonder if someone took over Fumi-baa's stand or if Alain is just walking up and "stealing" some takoyaki. It's a small thing, but I really hope they explain that.
