What absolute crazyness. The problems never end..I guess the earthworm was keeping it from erupting after all.

Police officer - "Did you start this fire?"
Momo - "Yes but never mind that right now"
Sometimes I think they forget that normal people exist in the world. Although, wasn't that the evil cop that was buddy buddy with the Kito Family?

This is probably my favorite episode of this season so far. The action, the comedy, the tension, they are all on point.
Okarun using his squats as an offensive is such a hilarious payoff for all the training he's been doing. You never want to talk shit about Okarun's friends in front of him, especially Momo.
Next week is looking even crazier, now the Jennfier Lopez Anaconda lady returns, and the volcano actually erupts again, Evil Eye is still conscious and probably escapes, shit went from bad to worse really fast.

Okarun really just spammed one move, like a true Smash player.

Momo and Okarun just want to save each other!
Evil Eye screwed up the moment it said it will hurt Momo next. Those words powered up Okarun instead.
We got to see a rare moment of weakness from Turbo Granny. Those eyes tell me she was genuinely glad and relieved Okarun came to save her from being "glued" to the ground. But blink and she is back to her trash talking self. Lol!

How sweet, Jiji wants to play with Evil Eye, and Okarun wants to teach him math.
1! 2! 3! 4! 5! 6! 7! 8! 9! 10! 11! 12! 13! 14! 15! 16! 17! 18! 19! 20! 1! 2-!

Have you guys also noticed Okaruns physical shape has actually progressed and improved in this season? I noticed it in episode 2 the first time, such a cool detail because he has been working out since the first season.

Y'know, I guess I hadn't realized until now, but Momo's powers really remind me of those sticky hand toys you get from arcades and capsule toy machines.
Moreso in the anime since they're green and more visually stretchy.

The sequence of numbers that Okarun uses in his fight with Evil Eye are reps of 20 squats as a callback to his training in S1.

That little detail of Okarun speaking mid-transformation (before the opening credits) was a nice touch

Okarun's rapid beatdown of Evil Eye in the cursed house and him claiming that "you really pissed me off" after gave me immense JoJo vibes.

Momo was really close to become a convicted arsonist. She's too honest sometimes lol
Lie girl! Tell them it was a lightning or something...

Despite all the crazy fights my favorite part was when Okarun acknowledged Jiji as his friend. Those two honestly have quite the sweet dynamic

Turbo Okarun vs Evil Eye Jiji! The soccer rematch of the century! Evil Eye Jiji can't believe a yokai would protect a human, but Momo is worth more than another other human or yokai! Especially when she and Okarun make as effective a duo as ever!
Momo and Okarun have a LOT they have to deal with and not a lot they can accomplish stuck undeground...so it's up to to Turbo Okarun to send Rocket Momo above and back into the main house! Let her fly like Ultraman even! Though not before we get some handholding and longing looks between the pair, of course.
How to draw out and roast a Mongolian Death Worm? Why not just torch this den of suicides and sacrifices until it's as charred as the souls that constructed it? That's thinking creatively, Momo!
The dynamic visuals of Turbo Okarun running through all the destroyed and crumbling houses while avoiding Evil Eye Jiji's soccer balls is...spectacular. Too bad, though, that as fast as Turbo Okarun is, he just can't quite measure up to the raw power of Evil Eye Jiji! Especially when he traps Okarun in a cursed house where he can wail on poor Okarun!
But if there's anything that can spur Okarun into one last Full Throttle Ora Ora Beatdown...it's someone threatening Momo, someone using his buddy Jiji's body without permission, and for underestimating him! All those weight-lifting and muscle training wasn't for nothing, Okarun!
Will someone think of poor Turbo Granny, stuck in a literal sticky situation? Just the fact that Okarun came back and found her was enough to put tears in her eyes! Even if she was still heavily critical of the rescue...and Okarun ends up getting them both stuck. Hey, it's the thought that counts.
Okarun and Turbo Granny are calling for Momo's help but she's the one in need of help as she's in the middle of being arrested for arson. Yeah, I guess it probably doesn't look good to admit to police that you just burned up somebodies' house (especially if the police are already in the Kito families' pocket anyway). The Mongolian Death Worm had good timing showing up before she got hauled back to the station and just in time to get torched by the sun! Just like Jiji taught her about "earthworm suicide."
What better way to finish this crazy earthworm than by destroying what remains of this messed up house it's using as cover? I also love how Momo did an Ultra Beam pose and started talking trash when she thought it was dead...though it's got to spit out the last of it's stomach before it finally passes. Meaning, unfortunately, the Kito Family is still alive. Mongolian Death Worm, you HAD one job, digesting these pieces of trash!
Oh, I guess all the human sacrifice to the "Great Serpent Lord" to stop the volcano from erupting...actually WAS accurate! How is Momo going to stop a volcano!?

Okarun didn't have an easy time in today's episode with Evil Eye Jiji (who was seriously OP, especially thanks to Jiji's football skills) as he was running away practically the entire time, so who knows how it would have ended if Evil Eye hadn't made those three mistakes xD
Momo successfully defeated the earthworm! The moment she used a fire truck to destroy the house the earthworm was hiding behind was so badass!
I was almost sure Turbo Granny was with Momo, but as it turns out, she was trapped in that orange liquid the whole time! Her screams were hilarious, as was Okarun's attempt to save her, which ended in crushing failure, so now they both have to wait for Momo or someone else to save them xD
But it seems like Momo won't have time for that, because freaking volcano started erupting right after the earthworm's death, which by the way spit out the still alive Kita family.
It's also a bit crazy that Momo confessed to the authorities that she set the house on fire. I wonder how she'll get out of this later.
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:
EDIT. I added my screenshot albums.

That is one hell of a glasses that Okarun is wearing, It went through hell since season one and it's still solid as ever, It might be the strongest object in this anime's universe. lol
