Ore, Sanjou!
Today's ep was really good, in that it was both fun and enternaining, as well as plot-relevant. they really made the most out of Kyoto, especially with the scenery and the dress-up, and it's it's interesting that this ep introduces a girl who wants to become Gentaro's girlfriend, when he's only interested in making friends
as for the plot, we do seem to be getting into the nature of Cosmic Energy and what plans Gamo has. additionally, it's really intriguing to see the show make use of the Chinese Four Symbols of the North, East, South, and West, and as the preview showed, have them correspond to the four symbols on Fourze's limbs
as for Tachibana being Kengo's father, next week's episode preview kinda puts that into doubt
[HIDE]since Gamo blatantly tells Kengo that he was the one who killed his father. It's hard to think he'd still be alive if Gamo's truly certain that he killed Rokuro[/HIDE]

But Gamo flew off before the explosion. Unless there are some parts not shown or he went back there again to make sure Kengo's father is dead.

Wow. I just thought this episode was really funny, and the comedy was really spot on and got some good laughs out of everyone! Ryuusei's comedic moments were really funny. I remember when Terui had some funny moments in the Gene arc, and it reminded me of him when I saw Ryuusei.
Leo was a badass for sure. Looks like he'll be punishing Hayami for his failures. I must say, Amano has improved his acting for sure since Blade. His back and forth nature between congenial and evil is pretty good, and Tatsugami is just..menacing.
I didn't like the fights though. I felt like we had too much Rocket CGI and not enough of the physical stuff. Especially in a creative set like the Kyoto one, I think it could have been much better. Cosmic was fine, just the base form. 21 Core Medals had some awesome fights so it's possible.
Looks like Emoto might be Virgo after all. Especially since he delivers Kengo to Gamou in the preview.

Ep. 33 is an attempt to get back to the comedy of the series after the previous episode's dealing with death and afterlife, and they really went out with the silliness by adding noises and cartoon to enhance the wackiness. However, it is also a very cool episode in the midst of the mayhem, with the first dual rider kick in the series, the cameo by Fountain X, and the first true premiere of the Leo Horoscope. Since Leo is my sign, I'm very pleased with not just his design but also the powers he displayed against Fourze and Meteor. One get the sense that despite their Ultimate forms, Leo will give them a run for their money.
Hmm, do we have our first suspect of the Virgo Horoscope?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! SUBARASHI!!!!
About Virgo:
[HIDE]Emoto being Virgo is very likely now. Not only because of the name, but the fact that his office is situated in Kyoto, and he can find Gamou for Kengo. We all know that Kyoto has something to do with the plot, so Gamou can send Emoto there to monitor situations. Moreover since Virgo can teleport, he can always go back to Amanogawa when he needs to.[/HIDE]

I actually found this episode hard to watch.
Sure, the bubbly slapstick at first was expected and fun to watch, because Fourze tends to have its episodes centered around making much of the first half or so like this, before getting more serious and down to business in the second, but it felt like most of the episode is pure slapstick and hijinks. I reduced myself to just sitting there, eye anxiously watching the episode timer tick away, and Leo still hadn't entered the fray after 20 minutes.
The girl absolutely gets on my nerves, though Ryusei's reaction towards it is amusing. It's funny how no one else in the show has really annoyed me this much, up until this Yukina girl. Sure, it's probably the ultimate point of her - to be annoying - but God, I hate this guest character. She's making me wish for this otherwise interesting Kyoto arc to end. :redface2:
I do like how Tatsugami is quite clearly a menacing badass, and even better was the series re-debut of Foundation X. Gamou and the Horoscopes getting gritty with business in Kyoto, and this business of "The Hole" is wonderfully relevant to the overarching plot.
At the 33rd episode, we truly do need to accelerate the story somewhere. It's just too bad that as I said already, much of the episode was just slapstick and hijink, relegating everything else to the background, including the woefully sub-par action.
Here's hoping I like the next episode a lot more. It's getting obvious by now that Kengo's father is Tachibana (and Shroud 2.0 essentially), and well, hello to you, possible Virgo.
