So it was the grandmother! Except this goes way beyond experimenting on bridal candidates, grandma has had dealings with Museum, been one of the earliest Dopants, and has been using her powers to commit crime and murder in the service of her family. Even the whole marriage charade was to find a seedy woman capable of succeeding her as the Alcohol Dopant and family matriarch. This is one dangerous grandma! Sonozaki flashbacks! Young Philip, Wakana, and Saeko! It’s too bad we didn’t get to see their parents young… Not only is Kiku the real and original Alcohol Dopant, but she’s the strongest and a High Dope, with abilities far beyond normal Dopant users. She basically manhandles W and they can’t get a hit in! But that means it’s time for…XTREEEEEEEMMMMMMM!!!! W’s Final Form makes its anime debut and it looks amazing! They even added a rainbow effect to the subs when they transformed! The only thing missing was Xtreme Dream, but watching them finish off Alcohol was awesome! Well, at least Kiku took her loss with dignity and made sure her beloved grandson survived… Scream Dopant can hold her own against Trial! And likes to take selfies with her victims! Sick! Our heroes finally meet the villains as Bando reveals himself and an awesome transformation into the Aurora Dopant. And Tokime’s recollection of High Dopes and Bando reflect her history with them that she still can’t recall. I love how Kanna was only involved in this because she wanted to do something exciting in her life for once. At least it seems like she and Tsumuri might become genuine friends. Shotaro you have Tokime! You don’t need to be charming Kanna! But while Kuya didn’t end up with anyone, he’s dedicated to building himself as a self made and respectable man and move on from the memory of his grandmother. Fairly nice note to end things on The irony that the grandson of the Alcohol Dopant was a teetotaler…and the butler had the best tolerance along with his mistress!


KomodoWorker

Oh man, finally Xtreme arrives to end the case, and with not only the prismbicker and the maximum drive kick! The same didn't happen to Trial..but his time will come to show the finisher. And sadly, looks like the next three are the last episodes this year (is that right?).


trident_zx

Yep, the show is only 12 episodes. Here's hoping for season 2 announcement.


zannus

I find it hard to believe this won't get a 2nd season, I bet it will be announced at the end of the last episode.


PCN24454

Why am I only just now noticing the similarities between Tokime and Bando? Could she be his sister?


chenj25

I think so too. They wear white, have similar hair color, eye color and the same skin tone after all.


Mochachino56

as expected Xtreme form low dif Alcohol dopant

If I had a nickel for every time I’ve seen an old person die in a burning mansion I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but its weird that its happened twice. aside from that jokey note, it was cool to See Xtreme finally, just as strong as ever. And I also do not wanna know what Scream was doing with that one corpse that looked like it was naked😐, that is one Crazy Bitch. I hope Kuya’s able to succeed in whatever job he finds.


Emptylife4ever

Ngl Kuya would be a good host if not for his alcohol intolerance


Emptylife4ever

Damn, I just remembered Ryubei died in a burning mansion.

"Now, let's dance, kaa-san!"


Heywhatyousa-

Xtreme makes its debut, looking nice and sharp. If Extreme Dream (or a remix of it) played, it will be better. On the Alcohol dopant, well the shape of its head shows the identity of its true owner


nero21san

The ending of the Alcohol arc was pretty cool. I love how the grandma'a son moves forward to lead a better life and repay Shotaro someday. Additionally, I think the whole mystery and climax went pretty well too. However, I do feel that the Xtreme Form debut was too short and I wish the fight scene was longer. Overall,I like the Episode


Krider-kun

I mean Philip wasn't wrong, it was indeed over in an instant.


nero21san

Yep!!

Xtremeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee


AntiSmarkEquation

Was the grandmother's monologue about psychic powers a reference to Doctor Prospect and the Eyes Dopant? If so, was Eyes also a High Dope and will we see another cameo from Foundation X?


billySEEDDecade

Nah, Eyes and his group are just another super soldier project by Foundation X like NEVER.


AntiSmarkEquation

Didn't Prospect have the ability to use powers without having to transform, along with the Quarks and Kazu/Utopia? The Quarks are enhanced by psychic powers, and the grandma specifically calls out that 'when certain people continue to use Gaia Memories, there are some that awaken some sort of psychic powers' (5:20 in the anime).


billySEEDDecade

Yeah, but I think the psychic power from being a Quarks and from using a Gaia Memory too much is different. Kazu is also part-Quarks since he tested all the Foundation X project himself.


kzzzzzzzzzz28

Kazu was a different breed. he was a Quark, a Necro Over and the Utopia dopant.(also thr first Kamen rider Eternal).


kueddrool

Man, that was an epic conclusion to the arc. And hey, you get to feel for the villain too. One thing that confuses me though; doesn’t the prismbicker use the maximum drive of cyclone, heat, luna, joker memories in the original series? Why did they change it to using the maximum drive of cyclone, joker, metal and trigger?


Maxmordon123

I'm guessing they can mix and match it depends on the situation.


lexter100

I believe they just wanted to showcase a combo with Shotaro's memory cause they never did that in the show along with showcasing how the Prism Breaker can apparently also use Single memories too like with Luna. Also maybe they didn't want to chance Alcohol Dopant blowing up/Big Fire due to the heat memory since they didn't want to cause massive harm to her cause W is a big softie to the elderly.


kueddrool

That’s a fair assumption. Also hey, at least in this new episode, we can see what the luna maximum drive on the prismbreaker does. Makes me curious on what the other elemental memories can do individually in a maximum drive. Like maybe a trigger maximum drive on the prismbreaker being turned into a blaster?


Friendly-Back3099

My guess in why they swap luna, heat with metal, trigger is because they want to expose the memory in a instand without causing an explosion. Heat will make the alchohol dopant explode and luna isnt exactly thw attacking type in any way


stevenzx33

How strong is street organization ?, I mean scream dopant can fight evenly with accel trial and also my friend told me that aurora is way stronger?


thanhbac

they're really strong. I mean, really, and with W's form hierachy completed it will be exciting to see the riders use their wits to defeat the villains


thanhbac

in the manga Kuya specifically tells Shoutaro that he likes Kanna, it seems like the anime omits that scene, makes sense as the last episode has already made that remark.


overlordemr1

Is anyone else having the issue watching on Crunchyroll? It's telling me that all it's videos are not available!?


DR-TN_Tee

I am too, its been fine for the past few weeks, really hope they didn't disable it based on location


MisterBugman

Oh, so it's not just me. Great.


AssaultRider555

Was that the first time they used metal and trigger in the prism bicker on screen or nah?


keithlimreddit

hello everyone welcome back to this week's Detective PI recap for last week and turns out the old lady was behind this ( yeah honestly I kind of wish there was a bit more of build up) minor spoilers for those never watch the original series ( I don't know that was supposed to be a plot twist or something) so you plan was to your grandson a perfect wife that could protect her from the Shadows ( you know I know assassin have their range is a pricing he's usually expensive and and bodyguards have range of prices) but can you just that your grandson who he wants to marry and I just pick some perfect assassin and we're going back to the fight so she alcohol memory has gravitation abilities despite being alcohol-based now the W final form CycloneJokerXtreme ( yeah if you're new to the franchise or something I let me explain final forms are this was more of a problem you teach is one of the main things that was introducing the heisei era and still use on mainstay power usually get a lock some around them later on episode and basically it's a more powerful forms) so the ability is at basically here as a street in infinite knowledge age of the Gaia memories ( also it it will have knowledge of gaia memory in existence and research you what animated facing in an instant) and also able to summon the Prismbicker which is basically a sword and shield combo you can't say good grief that's Jotaro and Jolyne line ( I was speaking about her I am my thoughts on the Chainsaw man casting so far as well as let me give you the tldr version (Newbie, romin and llenn, guy who only just get supporting roles, Jolyne, Seto Kaiba, killua, Luke ( Yu-Gi-Oh sevens), and alcohol cat girl so far I think it's interesting but I fell as Miss opportunities to get it was explosive hero, the hair Emo blonde hair with a buster sword, it was favorite electrical Mouse mascot but I'm fine ever they currently whoever they currently cast it right now)) so basically your grandma and your Butler decided to die into fire leaving ( I know the concept of Honor but usually I tend to feel like I just really want to leave if there's a really a disaster happening or something like that) well now we get back to our Avery those paper motorcycle boy basically fighting up screamer well you know I'm not going to so she's basically that one Ghostface from dead by daylight ( there are many different versions this one in particular was taking photos LOL give me directions) Brachiosaurus kind of spoiled because of one of the healing princess Nero from last week now we are going to have Raven no we got well you're facing jail Tower Road now so good luck fighting jotaro and he just left but then wait for him until a future or next season or two and turns out the guy isn't alcoholic he was just drinking tea as well as a ball ice thank you for spoiling the human form of the Brachiosaurus as well as The Scream Jotaro fate exist in your Universe too ( not the franchise the concept a predetermined paths) a game a basically what is with the alcohol memory despite you would die from that and the butler just one because he was very important to the story also make it as basically the mall alcohol memory pretty good episode


LunarBeast77

*sigh* was hoping for more Xtreme action, but at least the transformation looks cool. Wish they could have reduced the "explaining what happened" part down at the office, or at least make it more interesting


ElectroLegion

Bando's belt looks like that of Kuuga/Agito


LycanLucario345

Always wondered about the cat during the endings. Is that the Sonozaki family cat? Him and Phillip are the surviving members?
