This is for sure my favorite episode so far, it started calm but interesting and finished a little bit sad but man, Yomogi really stepped up this time.

It seems he can control kaiju's too and he is finally getting closer to Minami, soo good.

Probably one of the better episodes of the series, it meshed the mundane 'Doing stuff with the gang' bits with the kaiju of the week a lot better than some previous episode which borderline felt like they were having to pause the actually interesting character stuff just to shoehorn in a fight.

This episode was hilarious. The most different by far. So it seems that Yomogi has a connection with kaijus, as he made the instance domination for a couple of seconds, and also the scene where the kaiju stared at him. One thing I noticed in this episode is the landscapes, which are beautiully done. I'm so glad I'm watching this series while it is being released!

It was funny to see the eugenicists just doing normal things haha It shows that they are people like us after all. All the female characters are charming and cute. Impressive.

Yeah I totally agree. It's a really good ep. The best ep for me so far.

I also really liked the scene before ED, then Minami offers Yomogi to eat. She smiled so tenderly and carefree, then replied that she didn't care where to eat, and then the frame changed to Yomogi's dazed face, which was slowly covered by sunlight...
Damn that's such a trivial trope, but it was soo good!

Great episode! The Kaiju Eugenicists out here just having fun lmao, that was great, Eugenicist screentime is always great because you know, we also get Mujina screentime. While Gauma gang is having depressing problems. Really wondering who this princess Gauma is referring to, It could be Akane, it could also be not Akane. Shizumu probably let the Eugenicists just chill on purpose, so he could see how Yomogi develops or turns into a kaiju user or something. What the hell was that quick computer world vision of Yomogi though, and that white thing is growing on Chise. We are nearing the end and if it's like Gridman, shit's about to pop off in these remaining episodes.

Really love the awkward pauses in the interactions and the lack of background music, it just sells the realism of the interactions. Anti even inherited Samurai Calibur bumping into things gag, but it was a subtle ding lmao. Koyomi going through a midlife crisis though. And loving the development of Yomogi and Yume's relationship, I sure hope nothing bad happens to hinder this relationship. Really looking forward to the next episode.

I think in the earlier episodes Glasses Eugenicist remarked that he wanted to recruit Yomogi and the others to join the Eugenicist group, kinda suggest that the Dyna Pilots have the potential or power to control the Kaiju.

I like the part where the gang stated on how Anti and 2nd are so very knowledgeable about Kaijus

Maybe they can use the instant domination thingy when they start having doubts towards killing kaijus and actually starts trying to understand them. Gauma cant use it anymore cause he started seeing kaijus as things to be killed.
I liked how the start of the ep and the ending of it were parallels, start was Yomogi asking Yume to eat somewhere (was awkward af btw when Yume just stared at him after his invitation and kinda just shrugged him off) while in the ed Yume repeated the exact shiz Yomogi asked her but Yomogi as the head over heels young guy wanting to bang the hot popular chik that asked him that ofc saw a bright ray of sunshine after he gets asked that.
Comedy scenes hit good this episode, still not a fan of NEET dude and his backstories btw, Gauma's comments are getting more and more obvious that he is talking about
Mujina being adorable and hot as usual in every scene she is in and Chise with her stuffs... damn what an episode.

Also I swear that ED song gives me such nostalgic vibes... I love it!

The main highlight of Dynazenon to me isn't the action but arguably the way the conversations are handled in like every episode. Trigger surely has stepped up their game in manipulating the flow of a scene, thus eliminating or at least minimizing any sense of boredom in a lengthy dialogue with outstanding visual tricks. Simply put, there's no redundancy as far as I'm aware when it comes to talking, the character expression and gestures are just spot-on.

One major concern is probably the lack of explanation with the setting, like human's life wasn't taken so seriously till recent episode and even so they just decided to speed up those moments instead so idk what's the point lol, and not to mention how cheap of a suspense it was when Yume was trapped in this episode, especially with how she kept dropping stuff randomly which wasn't very convincing at all, but whatever.

Arguably the best episode yet, it was loaded with charm. Loved the character interactions throughout the whole episode.

It was surprisingly entertaining to see the Eugenists having fun.

I find it a bit strange that throughout the series, they can't decide whether or not they value human life or not. Koyomi stopped Gauma from firing because of being in the city, but they've fought multiple kaiju before and it wasn't an issue. I wish it was a little more decisive in that regard.

The scene flashing between Yomogi and the kaiju was especially striking.

Ultimately Yomogi had to choose between something that may have a heart and Minami. I have a feeling as time goes on they'll make this concept of kaiju's with hearts more prominent.

It's quite different from Gridman, where the main cast tended to acknowledge those killed by Akane's kaiju attacks (even if nobody remembered them anymore after the city gets auto-repaired).

I find Dynazenon tends to put greater emphasis on interpersonal character relationships and troubles; at the possible expense of worldbuilding stuff and reveals still being somewhat blurry at this point.

Finally some big plot development, I was awaiting for it. Im not sure how their gonna TRIGGER-ify it in less than 4 eps but they're gonna do something I just know it. Also props to the facts that they did the whole tease with Yomogi and use it in the same ep rather than doing it at a later time. Can't wait to see the next few eps.

this was a great episode. I loved the eugenicists just hanging out and I love Anti/Knight getting more screen time. also at some point during the episode, I noticed there was a poster for diaclone hanging in the background. so that's cool.

So Yomogi is a kaiju user too? So if they aren't mindless beasts, then that changes the game.

Colorful episode, especially cute seeing Onija and Mujina being on the same wavelength after the last battle. Although the city still got a bit damaged, its nice to see the team think about its people and in Yogomi's case think about the Kaiju before firing mindlessly.

So I forgot but do kaiju regularly show up in this world or have they only been popping up recently? Because this city has absolutely no defense mechanisms in place in case kaiju should show up. The military never shows up here either, although that would be boring to see since they probably wouldn't be able to do much. Yeah I know I'm looking for too much realism in a trigger anime. Still, was just a thought that came to mind.

I love how to everyone kaiju really isn't that big of a deal; everyone's mostly nonchalant and chill about it. Oh a kaiju that could level the entire city and destroy our lives as we know it, showed up? Ok guys might as well go and take it down I guess. And no lol don't worry I'm not nitpicking, I just think it's kind of funny. Or maybe what they said is true, and kaiju are chill in this world. It's just the human extinction dudes who control them who make them wreck havoc. And maybe they don't appear all that frequently in the first place; if they really emerge as a result of human emotions, that would make sense since already this city has its fair share of angsty teenagers

Although in the case of this episode I guess none of what I said applies. Today we had to deal with a kaiju that fell flat on its face and stayed there. Would've been funny, and cool actually, if Guama kept that look for the rest of the series lmao. Also deadass these kids need to be more careful with their dynazenon counterparts. And I like how our main characters always get the bus all to themselves, just like in gridman.

TL;DR? This series is more random and makes less sense than even Gridman, but it's Trigger so ultimately I don't care and am happy with the fun we are getting, like this:

"How do we find it?"

"We search for it."

"Okay"

AND YUME KARATE-CHOP!!! Yeah since this series is so random anyway, I'd like for our two lovers to just randomly bang out of nowhere by the end. Have characters bang when you don't expect them to and I'll give the whole anime a 10 out of 10

Seems like no one outside of the Kaiju Eugenicists has any real aptitude with Instance Domination, which is expected.

Eight episodes had to pass to finally see people freaking out because of a Kaiju attack.

Also it seems Onija and Mujina developed quite an interesting sibling dynamic after last episode's events.
