KR Gaim 13 released

So getting attacked by an Inves makes you suddenly grow vines and fruit on you. Nice little scheme Yggdrasill created. Deflect the blame to the Beat Riders and then use the wild card to create the "hero" to defeat the evil Beat Riders. It also helps that Kaito further makes things worse by summoning Inves to attack people. Your pride makes you do some stupid things.

For a second I thought Oren would turn down Takatora's offer but he would have accepted it regardless if he knew Takatora was Zangtesu or not.

So now we have the answer if you eat the forbidden fruit, you become an Inves. Now the question is have all the Inves they fought so far have been human previously?

[takenoko]

I still suspect that the first Inves they fought was Yuuya.

So Kouta and Micchi still aren't fighting together. Luckily, having a common foe is a great way to make alliances. We welcome our new oddball pairing of Kouta and Kaito with open arms.

It's interesting that simply being attacked by an Inves is enough to have plants growing out of you. I wonder if these guys are going to turn into Inves as well.

Things are looking bad for our heroes. The giant corporation has set them up as patsies for the inevitable monster invasion. No one is going to believe them since they're kids. What's there to do?

Preview:

Spoiler

More Riders again?

I probably think that the belts gives them enough protection to prevent the vines and fruits growing from them.

[Merisusa]

I really enjoyed the whole Kouta and Kaito versus Bravo fight, and looking forward to seeing more of it. It's funny, but I think the Banana Arms looked so much better on Gaim. I already miss Zangetsu's shield, it suited his character better.

I completely agree with the hypothesis regarding Yuuya being the first Inves they fought, and probably because he ate the fruit. It will be interesting to see how much they play with that idea of people eating the fruit, and their internal battle with becoming a monster. More and more this show is really surprising me with their direction and execution of story... I can't help but wonder if the fruit overlay was just a move to mess with audiences ideas of what makes for a strong Kamen Rider. (∩⌣̀_⌣́)

Not gonna lie... I am really excited to get a good look at the female rider. o(^▽^)o

[takenoko]

I think it's more funny that Zangetsu was beating everyone with just a shield. Looking back, it's really just a handicap. Since a shield isn't really a weapon the way a bow is.

To be fair, Zanegtsu didn't have JUST a shield, he also had a musou saber. And the shield obviously had some offensive elements to it's design, too.

I love this song. It's so rad.

[Connie_Edogawa]

I actually watched this episode without subs just to see if they'd have Hase eat a fruit in the episode or wait until 14 to show what happens.

crazy theory based partly on the preview:

Spoiler

I saw stuff about the energy riders weeks ago. they made a point of not saying who the one on the far right was. my theory is that, somehow, it's hase, and being an energy rider keeps him from going full invess

[Dengar]

I was afraid something like this would happen to Hase. He is the prime target for horrible fates all around. And to show both our heroes and the viewers that this really isn't a game.

[takenoko]

Bad things happen to Hell Brothers?!

[squashy]

WOOHOO!

[kyoichikiller90]

Owh shoot this things. I really can't buy this.. Why our Hase-chan must be an Inves mature type... Could Hase-chan will be safe? Fuck with all blamer on beat riders..

[Dengar]

Oh by the way, concerning the stupid people blaming the Beat Riders.

Just so you know, in general, people actually are that stupid.

Actually, I think it's sort of common sense to suspect the Beat Riders. What's more, further investigation is for the police, citizens always take what's on the surface.

Captain America takes offense to that remark.
[And Hawkeye, one of a handful of other guys mad skilled enough to pull it off, only doesn't do the whole shield thing because he doesn't think he's worthy of copying the Cap.]
