...What? Why on earth would a kid be at a tire shop? Why is a tire store promoting KAMEN RIDER?

You must have forgotten about the kids accompanying their parents to the tire shop and it makes sense ... the kid is essentially promoting both Rider and Dunlop and i think Dunlop are the tires for the Mashiggler and Meteor Star (unless someone can correct me)

Kids can bug their parents to go to Dunlop tire store for the Fourze card, and they may end up buying a tire or two while they're in the shop. :thumbs:

- This is the first time in a while where the plot is about saving a real-life city, isn't it? I like that.

- Yukina looks like a younger Yuka Hirata.

- It's pretty strange seeing a maiko with a cast such as in a modern Toei toku. Sometimes if you watch so much of this you can forget that the Japan as portrayed in the news and regular TV shows is still there, if you get my meaning.

- I like the way Ryusei keeps breaking up Yukina and Gentaro and that Gentaro is unphased by it all. As though he sees what's going on but doesn't say anything.

Though I must say, I wanted to avoid bringing this up but as someone else already did, I'll say it: this episode goes way overboard with the cartoony effects. If they want to lighten the mood after the last two episodes, fine. But... can't you find a less overt way?

- Kengo's father looks more rugged than he does.

- This whole thing with Cosmic Energy reminds me of the idea of Hyperdimensional Physics and the 4th Dimension that James Clerk Maxwell proposed and now Richard C. Hoagland is promoting. I wonder if that's where the idea came from.

Actually this whole universe of W through Fourze feels like something out a Coast to Coast AM show. Strange, almost paranormal phenomena are occurring all around Earth and space, and "secret societies" are working to harness them for their own ends.

- I don't think those pools are that deep.... are they?

And why was there a dinosaur in the water??

This was a fun episode for its Kyoto setting. Are Capricorn and Aquarius appearing next week or the week after? And as the Aquarius costume seems to have breasts, and despite the "Virgo is male" rumors, I'm guessing it'll be female.
 
I have a feeling that if Emoto is Virgo, then he might be another Cygnus and have another personality dormant within him that just happens to be female hence the Virgo Horoscope.

Or there is a woman, but Emoto delivers Kengo to Gamou, so I'm leaning towards him being it.

I still hope that a woman is Virgo, instead of a man in drag when he henshins into this Horoscope, but given that Emoto's name is tied to Virgo like Sonada did for Scorpion it seems like it's a foregone conclusion that he's Virgo.
 
Well, I was surprised to see that Foundation X now exists outside of the World of W. My guess is that it's a reference to the MEGAMIX film.

dude i just said that over at rangerboard, hahaha they acted like i was committing this terrible sin. it was hysterical, its nice to be reminded why i moved here instead. I guess i just don't find FX all that interesting seeing as they're never actively doing anything, they just kinda dish out money, they're the "daddy warbucks" of japanese terrorist organizations.
also is it just me or does it seem kinda weird that they would be funding gamou, he doesn't seem to really have any monetary component in his scheme thus far, how is FX supposed to get any profit from their investment, i'd have loved to see the pitch for how investing in "cosmic energy" was a good idea haha.
 
Another great episode of Fourze!

- It seems getting all 12 Horoscopes is only a part of Gamou's master plan, judging by his plans in Kyoto. Maybe the reason no new Zodiarts were created after Scorpio was because Gamou was too busy making preparations for whatever he needs all that Cosmic Energy for. And Foundation X! They're a tenacious bunch, but it's not surprising to find them in a Tsukada produced show. Considering how little Gamou worries about them, it appears their "defeats" in W and Megamax have set them back quite a bit. Whether their influence will still be felt in Fourze is up in the air, but I'm sure if the next Rider show is produced by Tsukada, we can expect them back in some form.

- I just love how Ryusei sees his redemption for killing Gentaro and betraying the club as protecting Gentaro from any and all things he deems a threat... which includes women who are interested in Gentaro. I already like this Ryusei way more than the one we met at the beginning. He's even using Gentaro's first name now! I'm going to look forward to more bromance between those two in the coming episodes since they wouldn't be Double Riders without it.

- I'm going to say right now that I don't think Emoto is Virgo. I'm well aware of the evidence that leans towards him being Virgo, but his demeanor just struck me as too bumbling to actually be a Horoscope. Of course, all of the Horoscopes are good actors so it might just be a performance. But when it gets right down to it, I just find it kinda creepy that Virgo could be a guy. Scorpio I can understand, as it wasn't really inclined to either male or female, but Virgo looks specifically female.

- Jeez Gentaro, the ladies just can't get enough of you can they! You've even had a proverbial alien organism fall for you! And truth be told, despite appearing oblivious to love, Gentaro has much better luck with women than I think any Main Rider... well, I guess Tendo could give him a run for his money. He's definitely got Shotaro beat though.

- DOUBLE RIDER KIC... :redface2:. We get our first Double Rider Kick and it misses completely... all that waiting for nothing! There better be something to make up for this >:(.

- LEO!!!! Admittedly he doesn't do much in Zodiart form, but his human form is certainly intimidating. Not to mention it looks like he's going to be giving both Riders a hard time next week even with their Ultimate Forms. I guess it was a good thing he never actually came out to fight the Riders... they'd be screwed!

- Why does Ohsugi getting sprayed by Softonya strike me as becoming a running gag? Hasn't the man gone through enough? Oh wait, he's the butt monkey... he can never go through enough :sweat:.

- Can't wait next week for Kengo to learn the truth about his father's fate, the Riders attempting to halt Gamou's plans, and Fourze vs Libra!
