|
| Rio is distraut that Ron took
Mele, Retsu tells Rio it is time they join
forces. Rio gets up to leave. Ran is the first to
go after him, she asks if he is going to get
Mele. He relates that would be what Ron wants and
he doesn't want to do that. Ken then runs |
|
towards him and grabs his
shoulder, saying that Mele was caught protecting
him. Rio moves a bit and grudgingly says that
Mele is just a minion, knowing he is lying.
Everyone shifts their feet. Gou then shouts if he
is okay with that. Out of everyone, Jan |
|
|
|
| states whatever Rio is afraid of,
that Mele loves him so much. Rio leaves, in the
verge of tears. Rio walks through the bushes and
this angers Jan. At SCRTC, Ran wants to know
where the bad guy headquarters is. Ken says for
now they will save Mele and |
|
will finish things with 'them'
later. Retsu says if Rio won't do it, they will
have to. Just then the door slides open and Bae
comes in, startling everyone, he says he will
show the way. At the dojo, Mele says Rio won't
come even if she is his bait.Ron says |
|
|
|
| what she always wanted someone
else to say, perhaps only Rio himself, that she
is in Rio's heart. She is not pleased Ron says
this. He teases her, saying isn't it what she
wanted. She remains strong, saying she doesn't
trust him. He then shocks her. |
|
Back at SCRTC, Jan says he can't
stop thinking about Rio. Gou walks toward Jan and
puts his hand on his shoulder, saying he can
probably do something. Master ShaFu tells Jan
that he was not able to save Maku, his old
friend, but if he could save Rio |
|
|
|
| for him. Jan grabs
ShaFu's paw and says he will. Ron says he won't
kill Mele, but when Rio comes to save her, he
wants him to see her suffer as she disappears.
She shouts otherwise to her, saying there's no
way he will come, he doesn't want Rio to save
her. |
|
Rio walks aimlessly in the snow.
Gou, Retsu, Ran, Ken, and Bae race toward
RinJyuDen. It is full of Rinki, but if they
believe in their Geki, the path will show itself.
Bae sits on Gou's shoulder. Retsu rallies them
and they jump forward and |
|
|
|
| start fighting the Rinshi. They
reach the temple and face Sanyo. Ken tells Retsu
and Ran to enter the dojo and they transform and
hold off Sanyo. They run past the three. Jan
finds Rio in the snow, while Ran and Retsu enter
the dojo. Mele addresses them as |
|
'losers.' Ron says he didn't
expect them. Bae asks Mele if she is okay. Mele
thinks he came because if she dies, he will too.
Ran clears up that Bae was worried about her, and
Retsu says them too. That a lot has occurred, so
they want to save her now. |
|
|
|
| Ron is mad and shoots fire at
them. They transform, him too and they fight.
Mele is touched. Back in the snow, Rio falls on
his knees and wonders his reason for living. Jan
makes his prescence known. Rio thinks he is there
to rub it in his face. Jan says he learned |
|
that even if you run away
(personal experience), your problems are still
there. He says to overcome it, you must believe
in your feelings. He then says Ron is being cruel
to Mele, to go save her together. He says he
can't. Jan says Mele is his kyuikyui, |
|
|
|
| important. He stands by what he
said, that she is just a Rinshi. Jan tells him
not to lie and grabs him by the shoulders,
reminding him that Ron killed his family and took
everything important from him. He pushes him off
and says that the strength he thought |
|
he obtained--hatred,
weakness... how could he understand being a cog
in a machine? He hides his face. Jan brings him
down and punches him. Rio then punches Jan and
grabs him by the collar. Jan says he made him
angry by punching him. He asks him if |
|
|
|
| he is angry by himself. He
doesn't exist because of Ron. His feelings belong
to him alone. Rio falls to his knees with this
notion. Jan reveals to him Ron not only took his
father, but his mother as well. His path is to
stop Ron from making people suffer. |
|
He asks what is Rio's path. Rio
is energized by this. Sanyo and Ron keep beating
up the Gekiranger. Ran and Retsu are out of their
armor and still keep fighting, even injured. Ron
wraps them up in gold tape to a collum. Bae fight
Ron to no avail. Ron approaches |
|
|
|
| Mele to keep toturing her, when
Rio and Jan jump in and kick Ron to the back
wall. Jan frees Retsu and Ran, while Rio frees
Mele. Mele asks Rio why he came to recue her. Rio
hugs Mele, asking her if he has to tell her. She
looks at him and then cries, he |
|
holds her tighter. Ron tempts Rio
once more. The five group up together, ready to
fight Ron. Ron reminds him he is already the
GenJyuOu. Rio says he will overcome up with his
power, will and his path. He says 'Pikapika,' Jan
smirks. He becomes |
|
|
|
| GenJyuOu and then forces it off.
Jan is touched. Mele says she will join him too.
This process makes the others sheild their faces.
For some reason, Ron is shocked Mele is doing it
too. They peal off their Genki and become their
RinJyuKen forms |
|
again.Like Rio's path, Mele says
it is her love. Ron runs outside to tell Sanyo
that there is a change of plans. Mele and Rio
kick down Sanyo. The Geki trio go to the aid of
Chopper and Violet. Black Lion extends his hand
for Violet to get up. |
|
|
|
| Violet is touched. The seven face
off to Sanyo and Ron. They present themselves.
The five Gekiranger call themselves Gekiranger.
The seven glow. Yellow commands them, which
leaves Mele and Rio surprised. Yellow, and Blue
upgrade, |
|
them with Chopper and Violet
fight Sanyo outside at a quarry, while Red, Rio,
and Mele fight Ron in the same basic area. Sanyo
makes the four not move. Just then, he is stopped
and they are saved. Mele's tongue appear on his
head. She stopped the |
|
|
|
| flow of his Ki. She says she
repaid her debt. Ron attacks Jan and Rio and
sends them flying up in a flow of energy, Jan
thinks back to when he was floating on a log,
yelling for his mom. Rio thinks back to the dark
day. They gain their power back and |
|
fight back, shocking Ron. They
lower down and run toward Ron, yelling.
Meanwhile, Gou and Ken beat Sanyo up. He falls
and Blue and Yellow attack him, by jumping on
their others' shoulders. The four then propell
Mele up to defeat Sanyo. Jan and Rio send |
|
|
|
| Ron back with a blow. They then
attack with their felines and attack themselves
by in the air. Jan calls his GekiBazooka and the
two blow Ron up. Jan is so happy, Rio is still
withdrawing. Everyone reunite, Mele knocks Jan
out of the way to get to Rio. |
|
Ron is now big. Rio and Mele call
their RinBeasts and SaiDaiGekiRinTouka is formed,
making Baevery very happy. Ron mocks them, saying
JyuKen is merely imitating animals. He shocks
them with electricty. Rio and Mele then do a |
|
|
|
| RinJyuKen double attack, with
barrages of the RinChameleon tongue. SaiDain's
horn brings Rio up and Cheetah, Jaguar, and Wolf
slash at Ron. They their finisher (Sai Dai Geki
Rin Zan), spinning around and slashing at him.
With a weakened and |
|
distressed voice, Ron says JyuKen
is interesting. He stands up and then explodes.
The GekiBeasts are gather. In the cockpit,
everyone celebrate. Mele goes to Rio. The sun is
setting, the Five Gekiranger are gathered in
acircle and congrulate each |
|
|
|
| other. Mele and Rio near them.
Jan smiles at them. Mele is thrilled Rio feels
the same about her. Bae tries comforting her but
as always, she knocks him over. Mele, flirtious,
asks Rio about living like they were in the Edo
Era. He tells her to be quiet. She |
|
giggles. The Gekiranger near them
and Gou asks Rio what he will do now. He says he
doesn't know, but he thinks he will be on his own
path from now on. Bae tells Mele blushing doesn't
suit her in the background. Jan thinks he's got
it, he grabs the two from |
|
|
|
| behind and tell them they should
join SCRTC. Gou and Ken near them, but Ran and
Retsu remain behind. Jan says that from now on,
they are 'Geki Black' and 'Geki Green.' Ken and
Gou laugh. Ran and Retsu are not for it. Not even
Bae is sure. Jan |
|
grabs the two and push them
forward, against their will. Mele tries to get
Jan's hand off her shoulder. Elsewhere, Sanyo
rises from the ground, saying it is not over yet,
he is immortal and he starts coughing, like he is
vomiting. |
Comments:
- This is the last appearance of Rio and
Mele's GenJyuKen forms. It is also the
only appearance of the
SaiDaiGekiRinTouja.
- Rio finally reciprocates Mele's feelings,
but it seems what they share in common is
unable to express some feelings. They
both lie in this episode to protect their
true emotions. Mele can't even see Bae's
love when it is right in front of her.
- The stick that holds the Bae puppet is
obvious in the teaser segment, when his
back is shown.
- ShaFu relating Jan saving Rio to him
unable to help Maku, touches my heart.
- I don't know how far fetched it is Ran
and Retsu really wanting to save Mele.
Maybe with the revelation from the last
episode, they feel for them a bit. But
wouldn't that fall under forgiveness and
a blank slate?
- It is strange Retsu was the first to
mention teaming up with Rio, but just
when Jan wants Rio and Mele joining
SCRTC, he and Ran have a fit.Good enough
to fight together, but not enough to join
your precious SCRTC?
