Added 2022-12-16 12:45:45 +0000 UTCHey everyone! I'm back today with Kamen Rider Geats episode 14!!! WOW!! Lots revealed in this one! Jyamato have feelings/personalities, DGP has rich corporate sponsors, and Ace's mom was once a navigator!!! Dang! I was so down for a Punkjack redemption story lol but it looks like we'll have to wait. Oh yeah, and KAMEN RIDER BEN AND JOHN, YESSS!!!! We're digging so deep now, I can't wait to learn more! I have no clue how Ace will keep going with his search if he's out of the game, but knowing Ace, he's already got a plan! Great ep! Enjoy! ~ MH

OMG I know!!! Like seriously, what will be left! Yup, that part did go over my head, thanks for clarifying! HAHAHA Yang would be proud! Lol I couldn't agree more about how shortsighted Girori was being with Win, as well as the choice of words. That's such a good point about the benefits when there are constant reboots, unless the sponsors are shielded from it somehow?? Also that's an excellent question about Ben and John, and Neon's dad's whole deal in general. Aww, that's sweet about their henshins! HAHAHA he's a bull alright! LOL whoa I did not put together the RWBY vibes till just now but wow, the similarities are there! Oh yes, Girori's interference could have some consequences when it comes to Ace losing! Really hoping it gets undone! OMG yes someone get Sherlock Anya!!!

2022-12-20 13:40:53 +0000 UTCHi Spadeas! :) LOL!!!!! I hope I can make Barbara proud!!! Yeah I wouldn't mind that ship either! Ohhhhhh, what a twist about Girori and Tsumuri really being related to him, that would be a shock!!! That's awesome, I didn't realize Ben would be the first black Kamen Rider! I'm really happy to see toku starting to become more international as well. I didn't realize there were other black actors in other toku, too. I didn't realize that about France's history with toku!!! I know, Glare is a whole different kind of Rider, I'm so curious to know more!!

2022-12-20 13:36:15 +0000 UTCOMG!!!! They totally would!! XD I'd love that! Whoa, that would have been a HUGE twist if Ace had died, I'm not sure if I could've handled that!!! But it makes a degree of sense as a theory, gotta say!!! That's true, I didn't think we'd get such a direct confrontation with the Game Master so soon! I agree that he can't last too long as the big villain if they busted him out this early. OMG!!! I have seen SAO and I had no idea that was Kirito, wow! I can totally see the Demons vibes. Cool about the homage to the original's too. I know, I'm curious about Glare too! Hmm, interesting point about the heroic sound, maybe there's a reason for that? Oh that's a good theory about what the DGP is really all about. Sick that these are the test subjects that are "defective" if they are indeed trying to make them more human. Guess we'll see!

2022-12-20 13:31:22 +0000 UTCOh that's a great point! Maybe the organization won't honor that decision. Sounds good!

2022-12-18 17:09:46 +0000 UTCHahahahaha yup :D He's the best!!!

2022-12-18 17:09:21 +0000 UTCI did miss it, oops!! Thanks for clarifying. So my theory is looking more and more correct!!! Yay!
Melissa Moore
2022-12-18 17:09:10 +0000 UTCYes, I realize that now, oops!! So it seems that my theory is on point!
Melissa Moore
2022-12-18 17:08:51 +0000 UTCYeah I can't believe he'll just get away with it that easily!!!
Melissa Moore
2022-12-18 17:08:35 +0000 UTCOh no, I realize that now, I feel silly for missing it! Well at least that confirms my theory. It is curious isn't it!! I doubt it's about protecting the world either, sadly.

2022-12-18 17:08:21 +0000 UTCWell, the Fact that Game Master couldn't interfere the game, it settle one thing. Game Master is breaking the law, and that might make Geats' lost doesn't count. I will be back with the information of revealed DGP's staffs soon if I'm not forget about it.

2022-12-17 19:48:14 +0000 UTCWow he did have an Ace up his sleeve 😳 😍 He's so cool! 😎

2022-12-17 12:49:44 +0000 UTCThere’s a LOT to unpack in this episode… are they gonna have anything left to DO at the end of the series!? 😅 …I probably shouldn’t be asking that, should I? Okay, I have to start with this one because I think it went completely over your head during the reaction. The Jyamoto Keiwa was fighting near the start of the episode actually spoke. In Japanese (or English translation for us.) He said “I have to win, no matter what!” Which is exactly what the Rider who “died” at the start of Keiwa’s first mission was saying. This is lending more credence to our theory about Jyamoto being deceased riders. Also, an ACE up his sleeve? I don’t know rather to yell at Yang or give you props for that one. 😆 Okay. So Win (Punkjack’s actual name) is all on board with everything and all Girori had to do to get things to go according to plan was… NOT screw him over? Talk about shortsightedness. This all could’ve been avoided if you’d just not decided to be such a… what’s the word… let’s go with prick. That sounds good. So Mitsune is the name of Ace’s mom, and she held the position previously that Tsumuri does now… so here’s my theory, I think you might be onto something… but you didn’t go FAR enough. I think a clue is in what we see happening currently with Tsumuri: she saw the DGP starting to get shady. And then she tried to DO something about it. And I’m going to guess the admins didn’t exactly take that well… that’s my shot, anyway. Now, the DGP is being sponsored, but what’s the benefit of sponsoring a show that just keeps rebooting everything? It doesn’t really make sense. But MORE importantly: how did two former Kamen Riders end up working for Neon’s father… and even MORE pressing: why is Neon’s father so interested in having her in the game, what’s in it for her? Also, on the Keiwa/Neon shipping front, have you noticed that when they Henshin together, Keiwa times his Henshin to perfectly end with hers, which she draws out longer? I’m just saying. Michinaga is so BULL-headed (get it?) about his obsession with Ace he doesn’t seem to see much of the big picture. Yeah, Girori as a Rider threw me for a loop… but then again I shouldn’t be surprised. Also interesting that part of his Henshin is “DOMINATE A SYSTEM.” He also hacks Punkjack… meanwhile another Jyamoto can create illusions to make people attack each other (Emerald, is that you…?) I’m getting serious RWBY Volume 3 vibes… so what do we call him, Kamen Rider Glare? I don’t know. 🤷♂️ And Ace is retired… but I think Girori’s made a critical error. There’s a lot going on, but it seems the DGP rules at the end of each episode are actual regulations. This one said “The Game Master is not ALLOWED to affect the game’s outcome.” What’d he just do? Keep in mind while Girori has a lot of power, after what we saw last week, that gave me enough info to know he’s not fully in charge. If the higher ups get wind of this, this seems like it will be undone very quickly according to the “rules.” Get Sherlock Anya over here, we’ve got more clues to get on the case with!

2022-12-17 06:21:27 +0000 UTCHi Hime :) "an Ace up is sleeve" godammit Melissa, I'm sure Barbara Dunkelman would be proud of you lol I'm also on board for a Neon/Keiwa ship, for Ace, as weird as it may seem, I can see it with Tsumuri, unless... Attention, theory time, Tsumuri is really Ace's sister but neither of them knows it yet. I mean, having Girori as a father and Tsumuri as a sister, even for fakes, knowing now that Ace's mother was Navigator, wouldn't it be totally mindblowing that Girori and Tsumuri were really Ace's family? A kind of foreshadowing. John and Ben being Kamen Rider has been talked about on the networks, since it makes Ben, the first Kamen Rider being black from the Japanese version. I like the fact that super sentai and Toku in general are opening up more and more internationally, we had Robert Baldwin playing Ramirez, the ranger Cian in Kyoryuger (Dino Charge in Power Rangers). But we also had Ike Nwala who played Commander Samuel Hilltop in Lupinranger VS Patranger, who was the first black actor I saw in a Toku. It seems to me that there is also Bernard Ackah who played the Phantom Caitsìth in Kamen Rider Wizard who was black. In Garo's spin-off, Black Blood, the big bad called Ring was played by Thane Camus, who is from author Albert Camus' family, which surprised me to hear him speak French with the lead actor, before learning that this one (Ray Fujita) is Franco-Japanese. In short, I like the fact that Toku is no longer limited, just in Japan. Finally, as French, we will say that we have a particular history with the Toku, since long before Saban did the Power Rangers, we were treated to Gavan (renamed X-Or at home) and its two sequels , but also 4 series of Super Sentai started by Bioman, with even the presenter who broadcast these programs (Dorothé), making a cameo in one of the episodes (scene added of course). But here it is, all that to say that I have loved Toku since I was little and seeing it become more democratic makes me happy. To come back to Geats, I had already seen images of Kamen Rider Glare before his appearance, that's why I theorized on the fact that the powers of the riders participating in the DGP could be borrowed from another Rider. We'll see what happens, but Glare's power clearly comes from a source other than that of Ace and the others, he seems to be able to control all controlers, by hacking them and has no core ID. The mystery surrounding the DGP and Girori thickens as much as it uncovers.

2022-12-16 15:16:05 +0000 UTCI think you missed one scene where the Jyamato Rider said "I have to win this, no matter what." which reminded Keiwa of what the guy in the very first round said (the one who was killed by the Jyamato). It seems like your theory that the Jyamato Riders are the people who died, might be right. Or at least the Jyamato have their memories for some reason.

2022-12-16 15:08:24 +0000 UTCThat Jyamato Rider that spoke, said the exact same words as the previous rider who interviewed Keiwa! Meaning that either the Jyamato gain the memories of the fallen riders or that the fallen riders are REBORN as Jyamato

2022-12-16 15:03:29 +0000 UTCYou just KNOW Ben and John named their little team 'The Cool Cats'. 🤣 I'm with you, there NEEDS to be a Spin-Off telling their tales in the DGP. So here's my theory how this season's DGP would've ended... I thought they were going to kill Ace off in order to eliminate him... Which is why Tycoon got his mitts on the Mid-Season upgrade as well, so that he can be the one who ends up winning and bring Ace back. Thus setting the stage for the next season, and setting up Glare as that arc's villain to beat. ...But then Glare just eliminated Ace without killing him, soooo.... so much for that. 😥 ...But y'know, when I said Game Master was going to be Mid-Boss I was thinking more he of an "Arm-Chair" kind of opponent. That he was going to send someone else in to deal with Ace, not deal with Ace himself! 😂 ...Though if he's going to be THIS aggressive, I don't think he's going to last much longer if he doesn't end up backing off. Also have you seen SAO? Does the belt sound familiar? It's Kirito's Japanese Voice actor! ... I got to say I get a LOT of Demons Driver vibes from this driver, though I do like the Vision Driver's presentation a lot more. Like you might notice how the lights would make the driver pay homage to the Original Kamen Rider's classic Belt. After seeing a demonstration of the toy, I'm intrigued about what else Glare can do. ...However I don't like the Standby beat. Like it can fit the Driver, it just sounds a little too heroic considering who's wielding the belt and what that Belt can do. If I can switch the Standby beat with the Demon Driver's when using the Heracles Beetle Vistamp(The one after the Belt says: "Contract."), I'd call it perfect. 👌 If I were to make a guess about the true goal of the Desire Grand Prix, I'd say they were trying to perfect growing Jyamato. Maybe the ID cores and Jyamato were meant to basically revive the dead, make them effectively immortal through being able to be reborn. Of course I'm sure the goal is to have them look exactly like humans, so maybe the Desire Grand Prix was made so they can dispose of the failed test subjects. ...Of course the fact that the Winner gets their wish granted would throw a wrench into that theory....

2022-12-16 14:43:19 +0000 UTCThere definitely has to be consequences for the Game Master interfering with the game, maybe the man we saw last week who sent Ace the Jet Buckle will do something.

2022-12-16 13:20:58 +0000 UTCI don't know if you noticed it, but one of the Jyamato Riders spoke Kamen Rider Ginpens (the guy who interviewed Keiwa and who had a sick son) line from episode 2. This combined with the reveal of the ID Cores in the Jyamato Garden pretty much seems to confirm that the Jyamato are made from the people or maybe only Riders who get killed during the Desire Grand Prix. Honestly makes me interested about how/why the Desire Grand Prix began and what the real purpose of all this is, because it sure doesn't seem to be about protecting the world.
