So things aren't looking so hot in Biida as the "gears of fate" begin to turn as the narrator puts it.

In something that'll be a great trend in this episode --the BG work is super on point.

So with the ultimate battle of ultimate destiny brewing, what's a narrator to do? GTFO out of town? Sure, don't mind if he does!

Grey's going over the data they managed to get from the lab, and seemingly has what's needed to get the combination going...

But the question now is how does Kuro's Black Devastator figure into things?

Meanwhile Aka's not even trying to hide her very obvious crush on Kuro.

Ki: Unless you're *trying* to give him diabetes which I'm actually down for, why does he get more cake? Ak: I just like you less, I guess. K: ...It's actually refreshing to be told that straight to my face, but GIVE ME CAKE DAMMIT.

Kiiro decides he's going to have his cake and eat it too, much to Aka's chagrin. My boy has no class, but I still love him.

Ngl, when I first saw this in Chinese, I though Shiro was saying something like "See what I have to deal with here? Now I understand why you fight alone." (He's actually commenting on how weird it is to have Kuro in the lab, and I agree.)

(Though the interpretation I got from the Chinese/Cantonese version is much funnier, tbh.)

So while Kiiro's being emasculated, Shiro and Kuro talk about the new combined robot Grey is researching.

"It doesn't really change that it takes three of our robots to equal one Gundam. Doesn't that bother you guys a little?"

Before Kuro can lapse into the politics and nuances of "Tear 'em all down Tomino", Grey calls them down to the lab and only has one phrase "Saint Dragon!"

Again, understanding what they're saying really helps here (obviously) so Grey is aware that their super combined robot is called the Saint Dragon --something I thought wasn't revealed till the finale before.

Turns out all of their robots can indeed combine, but how's that possible when Kuro's bot wasn't created by the prof?

Ao: So you know how the iPod's biggest change is basically only the charger and basically nothing else between gens? Are robots are like that, they have the same parts.

Shi: So then we don't even *need* a 48th episode. We can just combine our bots and kick ass *now*! Grey: I'd like you to meet mr. plot, and he says "Nah, bro."

Grey: Sure I know what the results will be, but there's still the whole thing of getting there, which I haven't figured out yet. K: Then who needs you? S: We could be eating cake right now... G: I hope you all die messily and are regaled as DLC of a past era.

In any case the mystery parts in their bots are apparently to take in the "Planet energy" that will allow their robots to combine.

Kiiro in the second pic is big mood.Grey's not sure how to activate the device that will take in the Planet Energy so he asks for more time --please understand. Kuro's like most of Nintendo's fanbase --impatient and says he'll figure something out on his own.

Shi: Wait Kuro! I'm sure Smash bros for the switch will be out soon and we'll all be in it! Kuro: Even *you* don't believe that. Shiro: It's true, but I don't say it out loud!

The kids ask Kuro to slow his roll, they get that while he's p-p-p-poker facing, he's actually really concerned for the DP --his brother Jack and that's why he wants to move fast.

Ki: Besides we don't even know if the Dark Emperor was telling the truth. Ak: Sure that's true but you don't have to say it! Ki: Ah I hate reusing memes. (Almost actual dialog.)

Shiro's optimistic --if it is true that the DP is Jack, then all they gotta do is repeat what they did when Hiryu and Kiiro were possessed. Easy as pie, no?

Aka: That's right! We can just shoot your brother up with love and justice! Ku: *Shooting* and *love and justice* in the same sentence.... Shi: Welcome to the land of Bomberman anime.

Kuro: You all should just leave me alone. This isn't your problem. Kiiro: That's what I've been telling them the *entire* series.

Meanwhile the Dark Prince is pleading his case with the Dark Emperor --he wants to make this last outing with Kuro the final one.
