Tripping balls: Gaim 37 commentary

Akino Ame 11:07 pm
Ah
Okay. Something is horribly WRONG with Kiwami
Why else would they suddenly switch from Kiwami being shown in the opening for just a couple of episodes to Kachidoki?
Kaitou Mishou 11:30 pm
there's something horribly wrong with ultimate power, this IS Urobochi
Akino Ame 11:30 pm
Yeah, I know
But in a meta-sense, the fact that it's clearly warning us...
It's clear already, but it's scary when the theme decided to stop endorsing it
Kaitou Mishou 11:31 pm
Kachidoki is kind of like containing it
at least that's what it seems like to me
Akino Ame 11:31 pm
Okay, Sagara?
It's VERY OBVIOUSLY you
Kaitou Mishou 11:31 pm
since Kiwami is a cast off henshin
Akino Ame 11:31 pm
Even when you use the lighting effects and the magic carpet around your neck
....uh...
...I feel like I should say "Onore Dickeido," but Tsukasa's nowhere in sight
So let me get this straight
Sagara has the power to open dimensions
Apparently travel through them at will
Akino Ame 11:36 pm
HOW THE FUCK IS HE NOT A DECADE CHARACTER?
Akino Ame 11:48 pm
Oh god, Kaito. You actually used it to your benefit
Using amnesia as a cover story
Because this is Kamen Rider and every third series features it
Kaitou Mishou 11:49 pm
hehehe yes
Akino Ame 11:49 pm
I will give him points for this
Not many Riders would have the brains to think of that
Plopped in another world, everyone's expecting you to behave a certain way? Pretend the blow you just got made you lose your memory
Akino Ame 11:50 pm
...Although, I've got to wonder if there's a very confused soccer version of Kaito walking around in Gaim proper and wondering what the everliving fuck is going on
"Why is there an invasion? What's with all these plants? How'd I get this glowing green cut on my arm and does it look infected to you?"
Kaitou Mishou 11:51 pm
god yeah
Akino Ame 11:26 pm
So I think for the Gaim reviews, I'll have to separate out the crossover and other "does not fit in continuity" episodes
As "And now for something completely different"
Squall highwind KA 11:27 pm
yep
Akino Ame 11:29 pm
Also, I need to use the joke "And now with the effervescent scent of lemon" quite a bit
Squall highwind KA 11:29 pm
heheheh
HyprKnux 1 11:31 pm
...is there a Lemon Arms?
Akino Ame 11:31 pm
There's Duke
Squall highwind KA 11:31 pm
it stands that it might exist, seeing as there's an Energy version, but ATM...no
Akino Ame 11:31 pm
There's Jimber Lemon
There's Baron Lemon
HyprKnux 1 11:32 pm
Ahhh
Squall highwind KA 11:32 pm
im only basing this on the Melon/Melon Energy thing
Akino Ame 11:32 pm
Which I don't understand because...it's a new belt. He SHOULD become Duke, right?
There was a plain cherry in the beginning too
After that, I was surprised that cherry didn't become a major thing
Squall highwind KA 11:32 pm
maybe he rigged it to Baron's base?
Akino Ame 11:33 pm
I don't know
I'm going to write this off as "Ryoma is a crazy motherfucker"
Kaitou Mishou 11:33 pm
it's possible. I mean, obviously in a meta sense this is Toei wanting Baron to be readily identifiable in Lemon
Squall highwind KA 11:33 pm
I mean, it seems like the Next gen belts seem to keep the template, which is why Micchi can go Zangetsu
Akino Ame 11:33 pm
And that it was a rush job
Kaitou Mishou 11:33 pm
it's probably a custom job come to think about it
Akino Ame 11:34 pm
For SOME reason, they didn't expect their main-billed secondary to end up as popular as he did and in need of another upgrade
Kaitou Mishou 11:34 pm
which is why Kaito can swap between belts
Akino Ame 11:34 pm
To be fair, I like to think Kaito collects belts
Squall highwind KA 11:34 pm
yep
Akino Ame 11:34 pm
Like souveniers
HyprKnux 1 11:34 pm
It actually is a custom job.
Squall highwind KA 11:34 pm
and wouldnt have Ryouma have the data from Kaitou's sengoku driver?
that means he could copy the template into the genesis driver
Akino Ame 11:36 pm
...I'm so glad I'm saving Gaim for after Decade
Because I have a bone to pick with Sagara now
Kaitou Mishou 11:39 pm
hehehe
Akino Ame 11:39 pm
Okay, I honestly don't play soccer, but I'm PRETTY sure you're not supposed to use your hands
Squall highwind KA 11:39 pm
not unless youre an ape
Akino Ame 11:39 pm
Or make the balls explode
Although, considering Mr. Dangerous is saying that this is nothing compared to his team back in France...WHAT IS THE FRENCH TEAM LIKE?
I mean, are there Riders all over that world who just play soccer? Which season is the French team?
Squall highwind KA 11:40 pm
Tendou
Akino Ame 11:41 pm
Probably
Amazon is obviously Brazil
Akino Ame 11:41 pm
Ryuki probably gets America as an in-joke. Maybe Black RX too
"We have two soccer teams in America. Only ONE of them we will acknowledge."
Squall highwind KA 11:41 pm
Imperer is somewhere in east/central africa
Akino Ame 11:43 pm
...How would Agito work out? Considering G3 is a manmade Rider and ridiculously slow. Is he stuck as goalie?
Squall highwind KA 11:43 pm
that would work. the targetting system would be good
Akino Ame 11:43 pm
I kinda want to see this explored
Verde could also be in Africa, specifically Madagascar
Super-1, maybe Texas or something
Squall highwind KA 11:44 pm
Odin could be middle-east/eygpt
HyprKnux 1 11:44 pm
Fourze's Florada
Florida
Akino Ame 11:44 pm
Fourze is pure Florida
HyprKnux 1 11:44 pm
...
It's late
XD
Akino Ame 11:44 pm
Alternatively, Florida is just Right. Who's not a Rider, of course. He's just there. And mostly eating.
Squall highwind KA 11:45 pm
lol
HyprKnux 1 11:45 pm
XD
Akino Ame 11:45 pm
England has Sasword
Birth might be in Africa too
Squall highwind KA 11:45 pm
OOO is Germany
Akino Ame 11:45 pm
I want to say OOO is in Germany, or started in Germany and transfered to somewhere in Africa
HyprKnux 1 11:46 pm
No one knows where Decade's from. Though, if something goes wrong, it's obviously his fault.
Akino Ame 11:46 pm
Yep
Okay, so Zack with a K
Got it
I've honestly been wondering which way to spell his name the whole time
Kaitou Mishou 11:49 pm
yep
Akino Ame 11:52 pm
I kind of have to wonder
This is the second AU Kaito has found himself in
Kaitou Mishou 11:52 pm
okay I took my sleep medicine early tonight. For some reason I am completely strung out this evening
Akino Ame 11:52 pm
And he just throws himself into his roles
Shaun, you took sleep meds. That's the "some reason" you're wondering about
Kaitou Mishou 11:52 pm
it has yet to kick in! I just took them two seconds ago
Akino Ame 11:53 pm
Ah
But yeah. Does Kaito figure that if he plays according to the rules of the world, he's going to fix everything? Is he trying to outdo Tsukasa?
Kaitou Mishou 11:53 pm
whelp good night all. I'm taking the cat with me
she wants to sleep with someone tonight, and has been subtly attacking my feet
Akino Ame 11:54 pm
Pfft
Kaitou Mishou (Shaun Garin) has left the room. 11:54 pm
Squall highwind KA 11:55 pm
"I have a 32X up there on the shelf. I can't use it...I don't have all the wire-that's a pit" - Proton Jon
Akino Ame 11:59 pm
...I'm PRETTY sure that calling for a professional in the start of a soccer match is ALSO against the rules
Squall highwind KA 11:59 pm
yep
Akino Ame 12:00 am
When you're not entirely sure that Kaito is not, pardon the phrase, tripping balls
Squall highwind KA 12:00 am
pffftt
Akino Ame 12:05 am
...So in this world
Professional soccer players
Have the ability
To set soccer balls on fire
And envelope them with energy
When they kick
Squall highwind KA 12:05 am
so...its Prince of Football
Akino Ame 12:05 am
I OFFICIALLY GIVE UP
I'm PRETTY SURE that somewhere in the audience, Narutaki is sitting there, looking at his rulebook, sputtering, and trying to blame Tsukasa
Who's busy munching away on popcorn
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I'M ALREADY DOING
Squall highwind KA 12:06 am
lol
Akino Ame 12:09 am
...I'm not entirely sure what I just watched
But I like it
Squall highwind KA 12:10 am
Mars kinda feels like generic Movie Bad guy Rider
Akino Ame 12:10 am
Yeah
Which is a shame
Because that's a great design
Squall highwind KA 12:10 am
which is why im more interested in Silver Boy
even if I like Mars weaponry better
very Wolzard-esque
Akino Ame 12:10 am
Yeah
Ah
Okay. Something is horribly WRONG with Kiwami
Why else would they suddenly switch from Kiwami being shown in the opening for just a couple of episodes to Kachidoki?
