Eh, how are you getting that? The way he talks about it, it sounds like some players in previous games tried to get access before. He's not saying it like Beroba was the one who did it. I kind of feel like when he calls the people who broke in yaban, he's talking about people that he think are more primitive like people in the past
Well, I could be wrong. I just assumed she had tried it before because she knows all of this info and she thinks it will work this time if she just has the game master's Vision driver alone. I just want to know how she has all this detailed info about the DGP and how it works, which I also presume not all the sponsors have. And I just naturally assumed this to be the explanation to that.

It's not her fault. It was a game thing. She's not exactly doing it on her own, that's not the kind of person she is. Would Ziin blame Ace if he were the Dezastar? I doubt it. Same for Keiwa and Kekera. Then why is Kyuun blaming Neon for the whole thing? She's not the natural saboteur, we've been shown that many times previously. No reason to blame her for the game thing.

So you mean their future world is 4D?

Oh, I thought they were just fucked up Japanese teeth, but you're probably right. Seems like a weird choice when you know this actress is going to be constantly laughing, having food put in it, and getting close ups on it
Lol, what do you mean "f*d up Japanese teeth"?

Wait, who's the resident Build-hater here, takenoko or Luna? That part wasn't clear in the statement.

Lol, it's so easy to forget that TimeFire's actor is playing Neon's dad(could be because I haven't watched Time ranger yet... 🤷‍♀️). But yeah, I never thought about connecting the time travel part with TimeFire's actor being in the show. :lol:

What do you mean? She's the one who chose to throw the bomb at her friends. I assume she had a choice about whether to be the Dezastar too. It's not an accident that she betrayed her friends

Personally I didn't hate Build but it's not my favorite either. The cast was great and the designs were cool, but ultimately I felt it got bogged down somewhere in the middle and didn't have as fleshed-out of a story as it could have. As a whole, it's above average for me, though the story leaves something to be desired.

Was it ever mentioned that it was Neon's choice to be the Dezastar? If so, I must've missed it. Because I never took her to be the kind of character who is willing to do anything (in this case, sabotaging other players) to win the game. Cuz they can't set her up to be a good girl this whole time, and then redo the whole thing without a proper explanation. If it was her choice, then I must've missed something. And therefore I'm misunderstanding the situation. I hope I've made myself clear.

So not such an engaging story. Got it. 👍

I think it's a fair assumption since she does the Dezastar thing. Like the Dezastar does get in the way of the other players this round. If she really didn't want to do it, the show hasn't really shown us any examples of Neon having doubt, or second thoughts about betraying her friends. Just her going "Alright, gotta win this thing"

IMO, it got off track with the Max Hazard arc. That's when the story began getting too convoluted for its own good, and at the same time it was just spinning its wheels for half a dozen episodes until they were ready to introduce Build's proper upgrade form.

I was feeling bad about being totally lost even on watching it a second time sober until I read the posts & realized younger sharper minds were also in disagreement.

OK story seems to be picking up but I still don't like the whole reality TV thing. Seems way too gimicky to me and now they go and make like everything and everyone is destroyed for founding out the truth. So what everything gets reset? Usually in a rider show, the rider gets a upgrade by now, but Geats doesn't seem to have one, is there even going to be a final form? I do like the suit designs for some of the riders though. Looks like from the same guy who design 01 with that minimum-ist design, look pretty decent.

So I can only speak for myself, but I have a HORRIBLE habit of falling behind on Rider.

Drive: My laptop broke which forced me to go behind.

Ghost: I tended to watch in chunks, so I'd watch like 2 months' worth of episodes at once, which made it hard to follow.

Ex-Aid: Just stopped watching for a few weeks but caught up quickly.

Build: Just stopped. In my defence I'd just moved to Austria and then Italy, so I had other things on my mind, although I still kept up with Kyuranger/Lupato in that time. Caught up to prepare for Zi-O.

Zi-O: Despite my hatred of this show I kept watching somehow, mostly for the guest stars who ended up doing nothing.

Zero-One: Did actually keep up with this one too.

Saber: Fell behind and eventually marathoned it during Revice.

Revice: Fell off in the 30s and haven't caught up yet.

Geats: So far I've watched every week.

This usually doesn't happen with Sentai, although I did get behind on Zenkaiger.
Seen:
Super Sentai: Fiveman onwards
Kamen Rider: Ichigou-Skyrider, all the Heisei/Reiwa series except the American shows.
Precure: DokiDoki-Go Pri
Metal Heroes: Gavan
Other: Spiderman, Power Rangers

Geats is one of the shows that I eagerly watch every week, but I had a business trip last week so I can only watch it just now. What an episode. We got more and more question that need to be answered now :lol: .

On side note, I really like this Beroba character. The actress does a good job portraying her. And her henshin pose is cool, too.

On another note, did you change Ziin henshin effect? It has Geats logo, I think.
