Reiko pps up to protect Akira and just before Reiko can spill the beans on Akira's secret, the Hikaiders send MORE mooks like they were coming out of a 3D Printer! #AndroidKikaider01

Well, the "Hide the kids with kids" plan backfired...as the mooks are smarter than anybody thought as they figured "Yoink ALL the kids!"

That's when we hear a duet... #AndroidKikaider01

(Sees Jiro and Ichiro fighting dark agents at the same area) ...what was the point of separating them? #AndroidKikaider01

"A lovely maiden..." Anyone else having Cutey Honey Universe flashbacks? #AndroidKikaider01

Akira wrecks Gumbo's film...but because he's the comic relief, he's cool with the kids and agrees to watch as the brothers part ways.

Yeah, if you're shocked the reunion was short, this is the series that focuses on 01. You want the anime if you want 01 to be about Jiro. #AndroidKikaider01

The bad guys, and Reiko, vanish and Ichiro and Jiro take Akira to a school so he can blend in with the other kids!

I'd crack a joke about Prof. Gil not recognizing his own kid...but let's be frank, has Gil even been there for him outside of "You're my living battery?" #AndroidKikaider01

"Where's the sun? Isn't it sunrise yet?" Oh, damn, sorry, left the filter on. (Color comes back) #AndroidKikaider01

The Hikaiers find 01 and all seems lost...until some smoke pops outta nowhere and acts as a cover for him to...uh...crawl away...then we hear a certain guitar... #AndroidKikaider01

So, yeah, last time, we find out our hero is powered by the sun and it's now (day for) night and one of the Hikaiers turned our hero's legs into junk. #AndroidKikaider01

Up next, 3 eps in, and the brother passes the tourch. "The Return of Jiro-Kikaider!" #AndroidKikaider01

Around an hour from now, HUG ME BROTHA! #AndroidKikaider01

Tomorrow, three eps in, time to pass the torch as Jiro stops buy for some brotherly Deus Ex Machina! "The Return of Jiro-Kikaider!" #AndroidKikaider01

Next week, three eps in, time to pass the torch as Jiro stops buy for some brotherly Deus Ex Machina! "The Return of Jiro-Kikaider!" #AndroidKikaider01

I'll say this so far, if I didn't know the reason from the OVA, it'd be a good set up to keep me watching. And...that'd be it, because...yeah, I feel like for the budget one step forward, two steps hindrance. #AndroidKikaider01

Well,t he attack did SOMETHING, as Ihciro's legs are bloody useless, leaving him and Akira prey for the Hikaders...just as the ep ends. #AndroidKikaider01

"This is our Hakaider Four Stage Attack!" ...3 bendies and a net?

#AndroidKikaider01 #MST3K

(Sees the Sun go down...and it is now Day For Night) ...uh...never mind on that whole "Forgive" thing... #AndroidKikaider01

So, now he's at 10% power as the sun is se---uh...exploded bright orange...

...guys, this is the 70's and you're early Toku. I THINK we can forgive Dave For Night. #AndroidKikaider01

Well, we can't repeat the flaws of the last season both IRL and in continuity, so where as Jiro's weakness was the damn flute fucking with his circuit, Ichrio's is...the sun! Namely he's solar power and anytime the sun goes away, so does his power. #AndroidKikaider01

Reiko just happens to run into the real Ichiro just in time for him to appear to save Akira after his trumpet solo!

Yeah...were Trumpets the new thing in Japan by... (Sees when Kikaider ended and 01 started) ...a week? #AndroidKikaider01
