I like Fifteen too.
Reasons? Or did you post it on Tumblr? I’d like to know!
I dunno. Something about the design just clicked with me. The sort of Showa era combatant-esque design and the teeth and fang motif that does slightly remind me of the BADAN logo. Plus the kabuki-hair.
Although if there’s one failing it’s that the giant chinese letters/kanji of FIFTEEN on the forehead is a bit eh, and I would prefered it not to be called Kamen Rider.
Shadow Moon wasn’t called a Rider and neither was Apollo Geist, so why should this guy? Though this is just a general problem of Heisei era, just throwing around the rider name like it’s candy.
It reminds me of the weird hannibal deer guy you see around on tumblr.
But but LOOKIT HIS SILLY SWORDANDCOAT
Well, we don’t technically know those explosions are enough to outright kill the Kurokage troopers, to be fair, and they were the aggressors in that situation, on behalf of the people who indirectly lead to Hase’s death to begin with.
As for the Inves, that’s actually an interesting question – could you summon one who was once a human using a Lockseed? Quite a creepy thing to think about. Maybe Micchy would have stopped to think about that, but I’m not sure Kouta would with people in danger. One friend of his could have died because of him letting an Inves go before after all.
How are disembodied human mouths on a tree, which we’ve never seen before in Helheim, not a hint, exactly? That seems like just willfully ignoring something because you want to say the writing is bad, sorry.
I hope this doesn’t sound harsh.
The mouths mean nothing. They are something that demands attention, but some of the theories and speculation spun off of them are down right silly given that they hang upon the mouths which could be completely irrelevant. I need more information before I can be wowed. teasing just to tease isn’t good writing, it artificially raises expectations and excitement.
Hiya, I was probably one of the biggest critics of this, so I did the right thing and took a shot of the frame in question, and I SWEAR TO YOU I will bring it up every episode until it becomes relevant! For real. I’m half Geordie, we can’t lie.
My question is what are these “mouths” (which honestly just look like typical Helheim vegetation to me) supposed to be a hint *at*? I’m interested in your personal opinion, not popular theories.
Well, I think they’re the remains of people who didn’t eat the fruit, but were devoured by Helheim in some way. They’re too small to eat anything but rodents or something, and we haven’t seen any in Helheim. The place has been encroaching on Zawame for a reason after all, and Yggdrasil has been burning any plant that does it, even ones that can’t bear fruit.
And no, I wasn’t offended at all, Munoz. You have a right to critique this show just like I do.
Literally didn’t notice them, bro. I was looking at the characters in case they indicated something with their faces.
