Gotchard 27:
Spoiler for Oh my ...:
Feels like a blast to have Katsuyuki Konishi (Gotchard Driver), Misato Fukuen (Hopper), Nobuyuki Hiyama (Steamliner), Rie Takahashi (X-Wizard) and Ryotaro Okiayu (Dread Driver) in one episode. Spoiler for Producer Letter for Episode 27:

With Geryon seemingly out of the picture, I wonder what's next for Lachesis.
While she did turn on Geryon by helping out Kyoka and Minato, she's only doing it for her own survival, with that smile at the end implying that she's up to no good. On the other hand, she's probably still being branded as a traitor by her sisters (especially Atropos). |

I think that will be direction we're heading to since this series theme is "Find your Gotcha!"
One might as well said this episode is clash between Houtarou's Gotcha! and Geryon's Gotcha! Now Geryon died, what to do? Houtarou have no ties with Geryon so he can keep training alchemy with Chemies; Fuga whereabouts still unknown so Rinne can keep going as well. This episode have Minato find his own "Gotcha!" that is to protect his students journey to maturity. Renge and Sabimaru are on similar boat, as senpai instead of teacher. How about Spanner since his quest for revenge technically ends here? Can he finally take things easy like Kyouka suggested. Lachesis is not so different, now she's a traitor also her source of insecurity pretty much gone. Clearly they're in need to find their own Gotcha! Look at it again, I guess whatever behind the gate already foreshadowed by Daybreak flashback. Instead of world envisioned by Geryon, its a mass destruction without Geryon presence (unlike, example, Sougo met Oma Zi-O, confirmed what Geiz and Woz said are true). Then again that beating rubiks raise question, did Geryon do his homework (rubiks is his real body) or simply abuse power from his rubiks (rubiks is body part of Trismegistus).

Platinum Gotchard looks great, it could have very well been a final form. Best suit in the series so far. I did like Iron Gotchard too when he didn't have the stupid train arms on. The actual debut of the form was not very impressive though.
Very much doubt Geryon is dead, Atropos herself said it's not over and she's his loyal servant. Whatever Lachesis chooses to do, I hope she keeps her outfit. It's just so sexy. If she can find one even better though, then by all means...

Kajiki return. Also Japanese netizens find swords used by Minato-sensei and Geryon in this episode. https://twitter.com/Ryuho488/status/1769513286691893329 So that's why the swords looks familiar.

Breather episodes from ghost story to detective story.
The staffs made post about how it become more difficult to have a fun, quirky episode in KR lately; rare to have breather episodes like this. I guess KR really have that pressure to be serious, everything connected, compare to sentai, despite existence of Den-O and Riku Sanjo works. Spoiler for Arc 3 Promotional Poster:
https://www.kamen-rider-official.com/gotchard/30 16 of 100 Chemies left, so 101st Chemy is something entirely new.

Gotchard Episode 30
Spin-off Daybreak timeline announced. Legend appears on CM, Toei really tried their best to ensure all side-materials canon. We fast forward now Houtarou is third year, with Rinne and Kajiki ended up on same class with him. Rinne jealous of female transfer student who also Houtarou childhood friend, doesn't help that Renge and Sabimaru instinctively consider Tsukumo as better version of Rinne. Meanwhile Lachesis tried to convince Spanner to let Clotho join them. Donbrothers cameo. Dread become more taxing with more component; Clotho not even lasted for five minutes using Type Three unlike Geryon, allowing Valvarad to defeat her. Lachesis suspected Atropos is unlike them she wished Clotho ignores Geryon as well; true that, Atropos considered Geryon to be her most important. Atropos gaslighting Rinne made me wonders if she and Geryon actually not evil counterpart of Rinne and Fuga but Rinne and Houtarou.

Renge and Sabimaru reaction are callback to earlier episode.
Renge believed Rinne won't outshine her, Sabimaru is into idea of Houtarou and Rinne as 1 + 9 = 10. This time Renge is quick to say she's not into competing against Tsukumo when it comes to love, while Sabimaru point out Tsukumo is 99 in kanji so Houtarou and Tsukumo is 1 + 99 = 100. Both implied Rinne is inferior to Tsukumo even if they didn't truly meant it. Well, if Lachesis didn't try to convince Spanner, no need for her to prevent Spanner finish her by pointed out his treatment.

And Lachesis just didn't want her sister to die. Had nothing to do with trying to get her to join. |

A nice little Rinne focused episode:
- Looks like next week will be the true beginning of the 2nd half of the series, as we'll have a new villain which according to the production note is called Dark King Gigist. - Poor Supana got the short end of the stick. At least he got a new sidekick in Lachesis, even though he's understandably still very distrustful of the former villain. - Speaking of Lachesis, looks like Clotho will be the next to defect to the side of good next week. |

No problem killing Atropos if she choose to transform into Malgam.
Kind of wished last episodes (Ninetails Malgam) went to Rinne instead of Renge. I do wanted Rinne focused episode but it spreaded too thin to my liking. Now Spanner and Lachesis will become duo as well, Clotho decision and upcoming Legend; it felt crowded that Fuga or Houtarou Dad's V-Cinext sounds plausible for better conclusion.

Googles with Chemistry Arrow Eyes?
Since Legend is coming, does it mean Houtarou transmute himself somehow? Upon further look, it add one more to "3" motifs throughout the show. Three MC, three sisters (the one actually referring Mind, Body and Soul), 3x3 rubiks cube, three mentors, now three dragons.
