Spoiler:

Good buildup this episode especially with Junya and the Majin Queen. Loved the confidence in Hoshino's eyes as well. Pretty excited for this final fight.~

Recap for today:

[n0m@n]

Anyone realised how there was 4 tea cups on the table when China called out Sei?

Maybe the other "two" people besides them were Reiji and Aila?

[Yesman]

Geez, man. Another filler episode with no fights? Are they even trying?

Spoiler for Rageon:

Yes...I saw that too. Nice hint I guess.

I think that Sekai is indeed a dumbass now. He still haven't figured out that assimilation is a pure burden at this moment. I was looking forward the entire episode for Sekai to brought up the assimilation's issue but no, I got nothing. Heck, I even hope that Junya will told him about it but lol no, Jun just knocked him down and expect him to memorize that technique out of sudden.

Seriously, we need more Sekai X Shia scenes. The Shia was drawn cute in this episode but the time Sekai and Shia spent together were too short.

I don't have high expectation on the final fight after the Minato's battle.

So, is next episode final episode?

Spoiler for Rageon:

Not filler, just your usual prep episode before the final round. Sadly though nowhere near as interesting as the one in S1 (well I guess thats to be expected since it was a world tournament with a giant ass fair/expo right before the finals)


Where did Minato's hax magic building skills go btw?


Nice to see that Junya survived that car ride lol. But seriously dude, knocking out Sekai with a technique and leaving him out cold there (in the middle of a park at night too) to figure things out IS NOT how you teach someone something (other than perhaps, not going out alone at night, lolololololol)


Wait....did Suga crash the car into Junya or something?????



Welp, time to wait another week, the good thing though is that its more or less 99% we are getting an episode full of nothing but action. The fight better wrap up in one episode (Im pretty damn sure 22 or so min is more than adequate as we saw in the Lucas match) to leave us the last episode for other fun stuff.

And Saga's wrist better not be some stupid plot device to make him lose, its going to be utter BS if Yuuma wins solely because of that

Judging from the preview, its safe to assume Yuuma/Adou and Fumina/Shia are going to wreck each other leaving only Sekai (and their leftover parts) and Wilfred to duke it out





As for the 4 cups, ppl please stop reading too much into it, living and studying overseas is expensive as f***, living with additional people to cut the cost is quite normal under those circumstances. Not to mention the place they are staying is in Paris, and looks 1st class at that too.........

[Tormenk]

Worthy build-up episode. Don't really like how Adou's wrist is brought up again at this moment though. Hopefully the final fight will live up to a exciting climax. And the question that's being bugging me all this time might finally be answered: Does every machine on Celestial Sphere pack the Trans-Am mechanic?

[Retrorock]

Ships, ships everywhere. That JunyaXAkira, MinatoXYuuma and SekaiXShia. More Sei teasing!! Guess he won't be meeting Team Try fighters this season since he is in France

[Random14]

Kind of a boring episode. I know they probably wouldn't have gone with another cameo/reference overload like in the first series, but so much of this feels like retread of earlier build-up episodes. Its nice to see some of the recurring cast again (Yuuma and Sakai are still the best rivals) but this is like the third time Fumina thanked them for joining her team and making it this far, a challenge to Lady Meijin, etc.

Spending a few minutes recapping the Lucas fight doesn't help either. But guess this series has been more about their growth (both teams) rather than just the fun of Gunpla. At least next time should be pure action (and hope the running out of particle excuse won't be brought up too often), just hope that wrist injury won't give Yuuma the win, that would feel like a cop-out. Wonder if this will be a 2-part battle or if something else will come up.

What do you mean? I think Minato's skill is doing fine. When he first fought Sekai, he could build the SD Gundam in a flash because it was a straight-build (and it's only a simple SD kit). However, in this episode, he is helping Yuuma doing some mods/customization of HG kit(s) to make it able to stand a chance in the final tourney, so the difficulty-level cannot be compared with straight-building an SD kit imo.

[pampz21]

Bore me to death.

Btw this is bothering me for the whole series. Why the hell do they only make gunpla rather than studying?

[DuelGundam2099]

Bore me to death.

Seconded, there just isn't much excitement unfortunately.

[Terrestrial Dream]

They definitely could have done the build up episode better. I would have love to see almost all the characters from Try appearing, whether that would be interaction as they heading to the watch the match or talking to the Team Try.

I didn't expect much so I guess I got what I expected

[Benigmatica]

For some reason, that random doctor at the end is gonna ruin Adou's game pretty bad!

Still, this week's episode is so boring... Might as well get hyped for next week's "penultimate" episode!

[Yan3242]

Whats with everyone another filler/boring/no fight episode? They just saving it for the last big fight, and several previous episode is all about fight fight fight and now you guys complain "another" no fight episode?

[DuelGundam2099]

The vast majority of episodes in the first series had action in it while still building up to things and having character development. Try on the other hand does what every Kamen Rider series from Kuuga to the first half of Kiva did and threw in as much unnecessary talking bits as they could before they realized "hey, this is an action series! we should throw some in!" and you get it last second except here sometimes it isn't even in the episode itself. Its just really dry. Good thing Kamen Rider got out of that rut with the second half of Kiva and Decade. Even G-Reco manages to be entertaining to some degree every episode.

[Tactics]

Looks like I'm the only one who enjoy this episode so far.

Loved how Mirai starts the episode and how the team profile screen included each team members quote.

Shia appearance in front of Sekai pointed contrasts between Sekai and Wilfrid.
Sekai is a beginner with little knowledge about gunpla, it's hard for him to work together with Fumina and Yuuma outside the battle.
While Wilfrid problem come because he is the strongest in his team, it became hard for him to share his work with Shia and Adou; both aces actually suffer despite their strength.



Now we saw why Adou wrist hurt.

He's working too hard to increase his reaction time leading to injuries;
His style basically using Fangs to corner enemy or create an opening before finally wrecked his opponent.
Against stronger opponents (Wilfrid, Lucas, Tatsuya) or an experienced one (Yuuma) its technically useless unless his Fangs got faster or stronger.

Considering he said he battles almost every years, seems like he know no rest when it comes to break his limit.
It's good to know both Yuuma and Adou pull an all-nighter with same purpose, break their own limit to achieve victory.

Junya returns. Now as a proper senpai (who would leave his kouhai slept outside in a cold night LOL); I wish for rematch Try Burning vs. Denial.
Suga-- excellent pilot in G-Bomber but as a car driver. He sure managed to leave bad impression to Junya, no wonder nobody wants to ride with him.



Minato returns as well, as reinforcement in workshop.
Loved how he and Yuuma keep complaining while their hand didn't even clash while taking and tuning parts without seeing.

Shimon x Gyanko? I don't mind.

I thought Fumina would be the one who most worried about the final round;
Surprisingly, I can see confidence in Fumina eyes; "If I win, may I fight you once again?"

BGMs used throughout this episode is excellent, especially the one before they launched. Can't wait for next week!

[Beefsquatch]

Your basic filler episode that could have been worse.

Loved how Shia poked Sekai with a stick lol! It was adorable. Also the move that Junya taught seemed kind of plain... Maybe Sekai will mod it with his other moves? 4x flaming bird attack?

[Yan3242]

- i can understand suga crash his car in previous episode but.... Thats not even 10km/h, its more or less the same speed with junya walk, how the hell?

- china with 4 cup of tea is probably not reiji and aila, more like sei mom and dad

- adou lost is quite obvious i guess, something something wrist

- that head banging on the next episode preview, is that try burning with some lightning gundam parts? (And probably winning too), they gattai?

Your basic filler episode that could have been worse

Agree, at least this filler episode is still a whole new scene not cut and paste from previous episode scene lumb together with main character act as narator, thats the worse

Maybe Sekai will mod it with his other moves? 4x flaming bird attack?

It could be, i can see sekai using that attack but 4 bird instead of 1
