Dang! Now THAT was a great episode! So many revelations and new questions popped up. Zune Aoi's voice actress! Her father revealed! Sayaka seeing Akagi transform! The list goes on.

Can't wait to see how this plot plays out in future episodes.

If I don't get at least one 'Yatte Yaruze' out of Dr Z, I'm going to be hella pissed.

I think we all saw that clearly, and we're all pretty sure that the pain Hakase felt has some significance to the episodes coming up.

This episode was terrific! Akagi has finally become a great Sentai Red. When he transformed in the real world I was in awe. I love how the big bad is played by Kazuki Yao who has voiced Franky, Bon Clay, and Django from One Piece, along with NinjaMan from Kakuranger who previously appeared in Gokaiger. I can hardly remember the last time that a guy villain has been out of suit, since girls are usually out of suit, like Kegaleshia, Mele, Kaze no Shizuka and Malshinna.

Dr Z is played by the seiyu Kazuki Yao. One of his early popular roles was Shinobu Fujiwara in Super Machine Beast God Dancouga and 'Yatte Yaruze' was his catch phrase. Since then, it's kind of become the actors catch phrase, it usually sneaks into roles in other anime as well.

Just knowing Akibaranger, it would be a waste not to have it.

Apparently Nobuo's reality-breaking Delusion Power impressed Mitsuki, since he upgraded from "Old Man" to "Akagi-san" after that fight.

This series gets better with every episode; I guess it's the lower episode count and experimental format that's bringing the best out of the writers.

this episode has way too much revelations, and i can't damn take it.. aaaaah!. hehe. the fight scene between Akagi (with the help of his overflowing delusions, transformed into akiba-red in reality, i repeat: REALITY!) and the elder alpaca in the end is too freaking awesome! 100% badass. i suddenly changed my impressions on akagi on being a crazed otaku to a self-made hero. yes, he really proved himself to be a hero on his own way.

Haruko Momoi appears on this episode as an extra, but the male, correct me if i'm wrong, is he the one who sings the opening theme for Bouken and Gosei?

and i just noticed.. Hakase has a slight resemblance with SNSD's taehyon. oh yeah! :)

Next Episode

Spoiler
is that guy mimicking Ryu Terui aka Kamen Rider Accel? i'm almost fooled. more revelations on this episode, i can't wait for it! :)

Man, it sure got serious in this show quick. So many revelations here and now we finally know the plot. I laughed when Nobuo said that there were too many revelations in one scene. It was pretty badass when Nobuo was able to henshin in real life too. That scene was done very well and the music made it better. Kenji Kawai's music score is awesome. Lastly, I liked that Hakase got more screen time too. I find her very attractive and I'm liking her more and more. Can't wait for the next episode.

Also, being a series targeted towards adults and not kids probably lifted some restrictions the writers had.

This show is getting good, that's for sure. You have to remember that in the Akibaranger world, Super Sentai is still just a TV show. I find it awesome that this "Unofficial Sentai" are striving to become official, yet they're already more "real" than any team before them.
