Good way to finally bring imagination back into the story (it seems as if the show had completely forgotten about its own motif for several episodes, opting instead for a simple light vs. dark motif)
To be fair it was handled quite horribly, what with treating it like it was the Force or Qi. Dropping it was for the best.
ToQ 47: - Well, Akira's "death wish" plot got resolved quite suddenly.
- Ah. The rows of lanterns resembles train tracks.
- There are Europeans at this star festival.
- Another year at the "city ruins" set for the finale, I see. Is that on actual studio grounds?
- I like the idea of as the ToQgers turn into adults, they (or at least Right) lose their childlike view of how to defeat the bad guys and try being like them, only to return to their childlike state after learning their lesson.
- How was Right suddenly cured of his darkness taint?
- Wait a minute, if Zett was there when Subarugahama was buried by the Terminal, where was he in the beginning of the show? Shouldn't he have been in the Terminal too?
- Why would putting in the Hyper Ressha now turn Right into ToQ Rainbow instead of the usual Hyper ToQ 1? Was it because he swapped the other trains in a row beforehand? Or did they imagine this new form?
- Give the show credit: this is one of the more unique ways to finish off the villains. But what are they going to do from now on? What happens to the empire?
- This is how we're resolving the families issue? They just imagined that they remembered their children and recognize them as adults? You could at least do some semblance of a bittersweet ending, or if not that then turn them back into children but with their memories intact. That would at least make a bit more sense.
Oh... they were turned back into children.... Never mind then.
- Little kids call each other "chan"?
- Did they imagine their adult selves beneath the tree?
