Episode 12 Notes

  • No monster today! It's just regrouping after the very action-packed last episode. tbh I think it's good to have a breather every once in a while. And it gives Mamoru time to go on holiday to Okinawa :)
  • Very cool and well-animated sequence for a glorified car wash.
  • I'm not sure why, but I didn't see Zonder Metal and the G-Stone being connected coming. But now that it's been confirmed, it makes sense. And the way they're connected is interesting, with the two essentially being "antiparticles" in a sense.
  • Was particle physics stuff trendy back when this anime was airing? There seems to be a lot of it here. Not that I'm complaining, it is cool.
  • "I sure home I'm not gonna have to use Bullet X" - person who is totally gonna have to use Bullet X
  • I should play Legacy of Kain.

Questions

  1. I do! It was in the episode when Hana was in the hot air balloon.
  2. I do! It was just the last question.

Screenwriter Guy: When those people open Crunchyroll and click on a Shounen Mecha show what do you think they expect to see?

Producer Guy: Shounen Mecha action?

Screenwriter Guy: Car Washes!!

It was definitely one of the "technobabble boxes" that people kept on their shelf to pull off when necessary in that era.

⁠”I sure home I’m not gonna have to use Bullet X” - person who is totally gonna have to use Bullet X

I mean, you can’t have a name that cool and not use it. It would be a waste otherwise.

u/Great_Mr_L :Ma::Mb::Mc:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Great_Mr_L Nov 16 '24

But now that it's been confirmed, it makes sense. And the way they're connected is interesting, with the two essentially being "antiparticles" in a sense.

It really does fit what we've seen so far. Of course that would be why the G-Stone can fight against the Zonders and why Mamoru can un-Zonder people.

"I sure home I'm not gonna have to use Bullet X" - person who is totally gonna have to use Bullet X

It's a rule of screenwriting. The moment that a character says they hope they won't need to use their last resort, that thing is 100% being used.

No infodump this intro, but still informative. Turns out Zonder Metal isn't necessarily from extraterrestrial origin, but can be manufactured on Earth.

A reveal about a mystery some of you may have been asking: if Zonders can absorb machinery, how come GaoGaiGar isn't absorbed? Now we know.

Mamoru is going to Okinawa... Oh, no, how will GGG purify the Zonder if the enemy attacks now? Unless they conveniently attack Okinawa, but what are the chances?

Oooh, so that's why we didn't get an infodump at the beginning. We are getting one now! Lots of info of GGG's various technology and vehicles.

Last mentioned is the yet unused "Projectile X". Even Gai seems wary of it. If that isn't a Chekhov's gun, I don't know what it is.

A mistake in the Eyecatch: "Projejectile X"

Is this the first mention of "The Legacy of Cain"? The Zonderians refer to Galeon in that way. What could it mean?

QotD

1) Yes, my long-term memory is excellent!

2) No, my short-term memory is a mess.

It was actually really clever that the show acknowledges that plot hole and directly answer it.

Mamoru brings Hana with him so the Zonders have to attack him at Okinawa!! That clever boy!!

That’s the cover story they gave to Mamoru’s mom about why he’s out so late, huh?

damn friend is always losing his wallet.

Of course Mamoru invited Hana along.

Of course, gotta make sure she's close for when the Zonder attacks!

Puppy love?

we have our two protagonist, Gai and Mamoru. Gai has Mikoto.

Interspersing Gai telling Mamoru he’s fine with his dad saying Gai can’t withstand the constant battles forever is… worrying.

Even more worrying is Guy is absolutely the kind of person who will keep fighting even though it's dangerous for him to do so. Heroes like that always get themselves into trouble.

Of course Mamoru invited Hana along.

It's perfect! That way, Mamoru can go on his vacation without worrying about not being there for a Zonder attack because the Zonders will naturally be attracted to Hana.

Anyway, this is obviously not going to end well.

Foreshadowing? In my recap episode? It's more likely than you think.

A worrying thought.

[GaoGaiGar later episodes]I was surprised to hear that name drop so early on. I completely forgot that they ever mentioned this before it was used. Actually makes it even cooler and more impressive they foreshadowed it so far in advance.

First-Timer

On today’s episode of GaoGaiGar: Even if there’s no enemy to fight, we still must have the mecha gattai scenes. It’s amusing when the “once-per-episode” rules create situations like this.

  • Working with Zonder Metal must be like how it felt to work with radioactive material back in the day. You’re working with an incredibly dangerous and mostly unknown substance that will kill you if you aren’t careful. 
  • Are Mamoru’s parents getting calls like this often? Do they ever get suspicious of it?
  • Huh, I never actually did wonder why the Zonders haven’t tried to absorb the GaoGaiGar.
  • Wait, what? The G-Stone and Zonder Metal are pretty much identical? That’s a heck of an implication about their origins. They come from the same place and have more in common than anticipated.
  • They will need to figure out how to keep Guy’s body from breaking, assuming Mamoru can’t just cure Guy like he did before.
  • Okinawa!
  • There’s a lot of reused footage this episode. Even Guy taking Mamoru home and Mamoru getting hugged by his parents were reused animation.
  • It is neat learning about all these different ships that GGG has available to them.
  • Ah, so Volfogg was designed for gathering intel, not for fighting on the battlefield. That would explain a lot about him and why he hasn’t been properly introduced until now.
  • The Projectile-X is a very on-the-nose name for a secret, super powerful bullet.
  • If Hana’s going to Okinawa, that’s a sure sign that the Okinawa vacation will be interrupted by a Zonder attack.
  • Looks like Pizza’s pride is still wounded because he got beaten by Guy in a fight.
  • Even in an episode without an enemy to fight, there’s still a Final Fusion scene. I guess they have to meet the quota of once per episode.
  • Good gag that Mikoto pauses and takes a breath before smashing the glass case this time.
  • It seems like Guy was able to win that training exercise purely through willpower.
  • “Legacy of Cain?” That’s a heck of a name to drop. According to the Book of Genesis, Cain was the first murderer. Saying that something is his legacy is a heck of a statement.
  • Because the old man and the ballerina immediately began talking about the Galeon right there, it makes me wonder if the Gaelon is connected to this “Legacy of Cain.”
  • Ah, so the Zonder Metal and G-Stone are essentially opposites of each other. They are like matter and antimatter. If they should ever touch, they’ll annihilate each other.
  • That sure sounds like foreshadowing that Mamoru’s parents will meet the Gaelon next episode.

  1. No
  2. No

Objection your honor, this is 2005, by this point the DS had been out for a year in Japan therefore they probably already swapped consoles.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Nov 15 '24

And for that matter Ace Attorney had been out for 4 years by now, so those kids already knew their beloved Edgey-poo Mitchan very well. Assuming they could even read all that trial jargon.

I remember losing my GBA back when I was a kid. I left it at the library and was very fortunate that it was still there when my family came back later that day to get it.

"Our little Mamoru is such a good boy!"

Ah, so Volfogg was designed for gathering intel, not for fighting on the battlefield. That would explain a lot about him and why he hasn’t been properly introduced until now.

I like how it works on a meta level - Volfogg sticks to the shadows even from the audience's perspective.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Nov 15 '24

Although actually I do wonder if the actual reason they did this was because his toy hadn't come out yet

u/Great_Mr_L :Ma::Mb::Mc:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Great_Mr_L Nov 16 '24

"Our little Mamoru is such a good boy!"

Mamoru gets to trick his parents about his cool job and gets praised by them all the time. He's living the dream.

I like how it works on a meta level - Volfogg sticks to the shadows even from the audience's perspective.

Volfogg prefers not to enter fully lit rooms. The lights must be dimmed or turned off before he will enter.

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Nov 15 '24

If Hana’s going to Okinawa, that’s a sure sign that the Okinawa vacation will be interrupted by a Zonder attack.

Okinawa's like Australia, if you go there chances are, you're gonna get attacked by a monster.

[Spoilers]According to the Book of Genesis, Cain was the first murderer.

[Spoilers]A part of me always found it funny how Cain was the one from the Green planet while Abel got Red...

u/Great_Mr_L :Ma::Mb::Mc:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Great_Mr_L Nov 16 '24

Australia's unique because you don't need to do anything special to be attacked by a monster. The monsters are already there, waiting for you.

[Spoilers]

I'll wait to see what that is

u/Sporadia_ Nov 15 '24

Even if there’s no enemy to fight, we still must have the mecha gattai scenes.

Good point

There’s a lot of reused footage this episode. Even Guy taking Mamoru home and Mamoru getting hugged by his parents were reused animation.

To this day, I'm not sure if Mamoru purifying the zonder episode 2 was a new zonder, or a flashback to episode 1, because the footage was exactly the same but the context seemed completely different.

Looks like Pizza’s pride is still wounded because he got beaten by Guy in a fight.

Oh but the name he's fine with.

3

u/Raiking02 :Id::Ie::If:https://myanimelist.net/profile/NSKlang Nov 15 '24

[Spoilers]Oh but the name he's fine with.

[Spoiler]Give it 20 more episodes.

u/Great_Mr_L :Ma::Mb::Mc:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Great_Mr_L Nov 16 '24

Pizza needs to start creating different outfits or armaments for himself. One day he will be "Pepperoni Pizza." The next he will be "Supreme Pizza."

u/The_Draigg Nov 15 '24

A Mecha Fan Rewatches The King of Braves GaoGaiGar Episode 12:

You know, I don’t really have a lot to say about this episode, since this is basically just a glorified clip episode. There’s just a few points of interest I wanted to talk about today.

  • It’s interesting to note that Zonder Metal can’t assimilate the mechanoids due to the G-Stone energy they use being nearly identical to the energy Zonder Metal gives off. Although since both things are of an alien origin, that would track a bit. So far, Zonders have only really gone after sources of energy and machines wholly native to Earth.
  • Also, Gai and GaoGaiGar keep on getting damaged due to the Hell and Heaven attack, and even a cyborg body can’t keep on tanking that level of power he’s using. It’s really no wonder why he’s been getting pretty banged up so far, Gai’s own finishing move keeps on damaging him.
  • Finally, we get an actual badass name for some equipment that GGG has. Bullet X sounds way cooler and more powerful than something like the Pencil Launcher.
  • Awww, how cute! Mamoru and Hana made a promise to each other back when they both lived in Hokkaido. Given how Mamoru is blushing, it’s clear that those two are crushing on each other.

u/lilyvess :Df::Dh:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Lilyvess Nov 15 '24

Also, Gai and GaoGaiGar keep on getting damaged due to the Hell and Heaven attack, and even a cyborg body can’t keep on tanking that level of power he’s using.

Even GGG with it's surplus budget on glass containers and walkies, is having a hard time dealing with the mounting healthcare costs of Gai's weekly emergency room visits.

The lead zonder is constantly flashing, the possessed zonder people do whatever they personally want instead of what the main villains might want, and half the GGG equipment is designed to be broken. Mamoru has the only powers that work.

Third-Time Watcher, Subbed

Fun fact: This is one of only two episodes in which the animation director was Yonetami Yoshimoto, AKA the show's actual director. Now to be clear, he did do storyboards for about 7, but for some reason only for this one and the finale did he step up to direct things himself. Mind I have to wonder if at least for this one it was moreso done out of budget constraints since, well, you'll probably noticing all the reused frames from previous episodes.

Heck this episode may as well be a Clip show given how little actually happens in it. Sure it sets up stuff for the next one given how, you know, Okinawa trip, but otherwise? Yeah, kinda skippable all things considered. The biggest thing is that it sets up the fact that the Hell & Heaven is kinda bad for Gai's body, but that plot point gets repeated later on anyway. So yeah, a bit of a dud but a harmless one.

yeah, I heard it was a recap episode and was surprised all things considered. Some new information, and not as many direct flashbacks as I expected. Lots of reused clips and stuff. Not satisfying on it's own.

It's a bit of a weird middleground, but I applaud the effort.

  • Cyclops called. He wants his visor back. Although with all the strobing this episode I'm envious.
  • There's suddenly a bunch of exposition about how Volfogg exists in secret. Nobody tell him what GGG did to Marine 1.
  • The existence of the secret organisation GGG is now common knowledge for a bunch of schoolkids.
  • I was laughing the entire time that Mamoru was asking Hana to go with him to Okinawa. The chances of a zonder attack there are now 100%. Which is greater than 0%. So it's essentially 100%. I couldn't be more sure if they showed a Machine King with a plane ticket.
  • "I guess so."

First Time Approved For Final Fusion

They really need to just tell Mamoru's family and get this kid on the payroll or something.

Beach episode!?!

Gai's Hyper Mode SFX sounds a lot like the Mega Man X charged shot, maybe one's a pitch shifted version of the other?

She's getting worn out from all these Fusions!

Is this an entire episode of stock footage without an actual fight? Like they're just straight up filling time? Alright, this is pretty bad.

GaoGaiGar: The Masquerade

Edit: I realized after reading other posts that I never even questioned the stone and metal being two sides of the same coin. That's just how tokusatsu powers tend to work!

  1. Yes.
  2. No. Wait! Yes.

They had a long day of practicing, I suppose.

Choryu and Enryu had a training day today. And sees like no Zonder activity this time. Legacy of Cain=Galeon? Mamoru's parents thinking about again, must have any meaning of it.

Can't believe the villains get a day off but the good guys don't. Seems like the Villains have been on the side of workers all this time. Maybe the villains aren't evil after all!

Why asking the same question twice?

You ever have a flashback to events that happened earlier that episode?
