Then after the first hesitation tell Gauche to hack away. Sort of like. Your identities or your friend. That would've made for a bit more dramatic reveal. Aside from that, the main way monsters grew big is dead. We have officially hit the Endgame of Lupin.
Or even the low-tech method of a second mask underneath their first ones, or face paint. The way they first hid their faces with their hats really raised my anticipation that they had come with a gimmick.
The moral of the story is that if you are a monster grower and you don't act romantically interested in big evil expect to be tossed away like yesterday's trash. A least Gauche's death came as she was doing what she loved.scot64 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 22, 2019 6:27 pm Dorgranio opening all the safes and suddenly taking back all collection pieces and telling Gauche’s that she has been doing what ever she wanted, now he is doing it. Leaving her to take a stand on her own two feet. I thought Dorgranio had a soft spot for Gauche by the way he let her have so much freedom to plot and play. New Dorgranio plot twists, would have been better around 45 or 46.

(Don't ask. I don't know either) And this one actually had me shivering, and it's quite a hot night where I live.
My brain says "Give the episode a 3 or 4", but my heart says "Give it a 6".
It really got to me.
Can I give it a 6?
Why wouldn't Noel configure the VS vehicles that way? What if a Ganglar got one of the VS vehicles and put it in his safe? That would be a scary thought. And, it's doesn't have to be a DNA test, maybe the planet that Noel and the Ganglars are from is colder so their body temperatures have evolved lower? It's something that could be eventually cracked but it seems like a sensible safeguard.takenoko wrote: ↑Sat Jan 19, 2019 10:01 pm Oh yeah, I wrote in my notes that we finally know why Noel doesn't use the VS vehicles. It's because he configured them to work with humans. Motherfucker, are you putting a gene lock into the devices, because the VS Changers sure don't look like they run a DNA test to make sure the items are being used by a human.
I thought the final shot of was effective with Sayaka crushed and nearly out of the scene, Tuskasa comforting him, and Kei in the foreground stoically trying to process everything.
