Superhero Time 6-12-12Now that E3 is over, it's time for everyone to return to the land of the rising sun. It's a shame for all of those people at the convention, because they missed out on one the most ridiculous fights of the century taking place right in front of the convention center. Unfortunately, there was no one there to capture it on film since everyone was busy checking out the latest things from all of the game companies attending E3. The mission was a success, except that the data containing the trailer related to Fire Emblem Awakening's announcement for a North American release got infected by the Metavirus. In other words, the Go-Busters had to shutdown a Fire Emblem Metaroid and Megazord. You heard the truth behind Fire Emblem Awakening's announcement right here, folks. It's now time to take the first exit on the delusional expressway.
Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters Episode 16
It looks like we are not going to have a rivalry between the current Go-Busters and the two new ones, since their motives don't seem to be a threat to the Energy Management Center -- at least for now. If last week's ending was not much of a hint, it looks like Enter has figured out the source behind the third party that is interfering in the sub hyperspace. Aside from another episode focusing on Beet and Stag Buster's abilities, today was meant to establish the line between the five Rangers. There is also a new twist on Jin's appearance, which happens to be connected to Enter in a way. I have a feeling that whatever allowed Jin and Beet J. Stag to obtain their abilities is also connected to the stolen blueprints, which might explain why the Vaglass have not created anything with it yet. With these mysteries and more, Go-Busters is still busting up some good entertainment.
Kamen Rider Fourze Episode 39
Rules may be important in creating order in society, but sometimes things can go out of hand if there are too many unnecessary ones. The beginning of this Horoscope arc is going to play around with this saying since the students of Amanogawa are having their freedom revoked. Oh hey look at that, there are ten to eleven episodes left until Fourze ends, and Gamou's final plan continues to be teased upon us. As we wait for the big reveal, we get to see Gentaro and JK in a whole new way that we have never seen before. It also creates a set up for the group to approach the new Horoscope in a different manner than before, which ends up putting a few things at stake.
Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger Episode 9
As the group is becoming more powerful in mastering the ways of the delusions, Malshina's plan in opening the rift between both worlds continues to progress to the next step. In order to stop the evil mistress, Hiroyo attempted to relinquish the group of their devices in hopes that her plan is put to an end. However, there is a greater power that surpasses Malshina, and his presence is about to be known to the world. And you are not going to believe who decides to make an appearance this week on Akibaranger. His experience has been known throughout many as an entertaining voice actor, and he is playing as an actual person in the series, which is one heck of a treat for those who are familiar with his works -- especially if you have watched any of the previous Super Sentai shows and/or a particular anime that is covered in Shonen Showdown. I think that the connections between everything is going to be made clear next week as we are hit with some more exciting twists that will have you jumping out of your chair. This is also a sign that Akibaranger is going to enter its finale soon, and I only expect things to get more ridiculous and silly from here on out. Did you know?
