One thing about Gavv that I realized is how it is avoiding the "Specialist Main Character" trope with Shouma. He isn't special but instead abnormal. When the Red Gavv was first brought up, I thought that was going to mean having a red gavv meant something big in granute society, but instead the red gavv was Shouma being modify because he was initially a weak granute to the point where he couldn't make minions like the rest of them.
The dark treats taste better when they capture them when they're happy. The quality of the treats depends on how happy they are catch them, that's why they're mostly sneaking up on them. If it was the opposite they would be jumping in front of them to a scare them before turning them into treats.
The writing for this show has been fantastic so far. All of the characters actually feel like real people and have normal conversations. I love that all 3 Riders have lost a loved one to Stomach Inc. and all have a personal grudge with them, and yet all have such different approaches, with Shouma just wanting to save as many lives as possible, Hanto mainly seeking revenge but still wanting to help people, and Laage9 also wanting revenge, but doesn't give a damn about collateral damage. I'm very interested to see the dynamic of this trio once they fully form.
Interesting how each Rider in the season so far has had a dark and tragic backstory. I expect the pattern will continue with Bitter Gavv, even though he’ll be a villainous Rider. On account of him having snatched Shoma’s DNA, I think it’s even more likely now that Bitter Gavv will be Suga. The reason why Suva’s been eager to meet Shoma up until now appears to be because he requires Shoma’s special, rare Granute-Human hybrid DNA. Maybe he’s been trying to turn Hanto into an artificial Granute-Human hybrid as another way of getting the DNA, which would explain why he’s been monitoring how the Granute Organ has affected Hanto’s body. Perhaps hybrid DNA is the “final piece” toward completing the Bitter Gavv Driver/Organ. As for WHY Suga needs hybrid DNA specifically, maybe it’s the closest thing that matches his own…. If Suga is indeed a hybrid like Shoma completely unrelated to the Stomach Family, then that would open up the opportunity for the season to deliberately draw parallels between him and Shoma and their similar experiences. To show how Shoma could have easily ended up like him if he discarded his kindness and compassion.
I don’t think Kenzo snatched Shoma’s DNA to check if he was a Granute or not. He’s well-aware Shoma’s a Granute; he mentioned it when he was reviewing footage Nyelv sent him. In fact, when he encountered Shoma for the first time, Kenzo seemed to immediately figure out that Shoma was “different” from a regular Granute, which was flashed back to in this episode. He also seems to have a strange scar on his stomach where a Gavv would be located, which Hanto accidentally discovered when he checked to see if Kenzo was a Granute. I think Kenzo took Shoma’s DNA in order to create the Driver for the upcoming Dark Rider Bitter Gavv, who suspiciously is modeled after Shoma’s Rider form and whose Driver has the same design structure as Shoma’s Red Gavv organ that marks him as a Granute-Human hybrid….
@ Huh. So I guess Bitter Gavv IS gonna be a Granute-Human hybrid like Shoma, since the organ is shaped like Shoma’s Red Gavv. Maybe it’ll be an artificial Gavv for Kenzo to replace the one taken from him sometime in the past. On a related note, Bitter Gavv also seems to suspiciously look a lot like a wolf…. There’s little “ears” on the Gavv, there’s what look like wolf ears on the helmet, and there seems to be a paw print on the helmet as well.
They said in the show that the happier someone is before they're pressed, the better the dark treat will taste. Laage9's ability is what made it easier for him to rise in the ranks of the Stomach Inc. Part-Timers.
6:12 that comes down to the subs you watched, theres other subs (i think geosubs) that instead says "Because i was part of the stomach company once" which works far better
kenzo suga is played by the dude to voiced zanza in xenoblade......i will leave that there as the actor is channeling very similar energy to that character
The "Save Martha" moment didn't feel too forced in a way at the end there. Curious to see how next week's episode goes, since it looks like they're raiding Stomach INC's factory.
Lakia(Lage9/Vlam)'s backstory is very tragic, seeing how he lost Commel(his brother) to him succuming to his addiction to the Dark Confections.(I also agree that it's wild that the show with riders based on snacks could tackle such dark themes like addiction) As for Lakia's redemption arc; see this more in line with Michinaga's redemption arc where again, they have a common goal in wanting to bring Stomach inc down. So again, I wouldn't see him being totally buddy-buddy with Shouma and Hanto.(Either way, it's still would be a better redemption arc than Stacy's.) Although, I totally agree, that we should just get a rider who is just straight-up an antagonist.(I'm talking more in line like something like Ouja/Strike, and not just a straight-up villain like Chronus, Evolt, Storious, Regad(Omega) etc.) As for monsters that become riders; honestly appart from weird edge cases like Chinomonoko Diend, one-off MoTWs being a copy of a rider, or riders that aren't truely human but still are human in apperance(I'e Chaser, Kikai, the MetsubouJinrai riders, the DGP supporter riders) The only examples that come to mind of monsters becoming riders are the Imagins, and Vice.(And I guess we can add Lakia/Lage9 to the that list.)
sentai does Non-Human rangers a lot more common especially compared to Rider Kyuranger alone has 5 Rangers who are all Kaijin/Monsters, excluding your typical "non-human" human actors

The toy box actually confirmed that Bitter Gavv is an organ and not a driver.

I feel like the work under them was a mistranslation and he meant that he's been there before

Shouma says "I was one of them." as in the stomachs as family.
Shouma keeps hiding his secrets and telling half-truths gonna be a recipe for disaster later on.
Vlam has become the very thing he swore to destroy
Did you not watch any other episodes ?
kenzo suga is played by the dude to voiced zanza in xenoblade......i will leave that there as the actor is channeling very similar energy to that character

However, this is a great build-up for the eventual fallout between Shoma and Hanto.
we essentially have pudding and a gummy bear fighting is crazy 😂😂😂😂

'Evil fisherman' lol
He’s just juran voice actor.
ToQ Rokugo is also an example of a monster turning into a ranger! Also I think Desast got a form in one of the Saber movies.
sentai does Non-Human rangers a lot more common especially compared to Rider
Kyuranger alone has 5 Rangers who are all Kaijin/Monsters, excluding your typical "non-human" human actors
Of course. KR & toku series is not complete without the dramatics. 😊
🎉🎉🎉
The one who created Hanto’s henshin device is called Kenzo Suga
His full name is Kenzo Suga
I thought it was Nyelv that created Vlam's device
Il@@SymbiSpidey it was nylev
Orphnoch
Vlam is a better character than boon violet aka sakito
Rider psa
First mister dosmrider
