Definitely not a ninja.
Because Seikai is not doing his training and prefers slacking off, Tsuruhime is disappointed with the actions of this ninja. As for the MOTW of this episode, just like Seikai, he likes to eat a lot. Because the MOTW wants to eat silently, he ends up entering Seikai's body just to eat! Can Seikai stop his craving for food controlled by the MOTW?
Seikai is one of my favorite Kakurangers aside from his faces worthy for reaction images is his attitude. He is a bit of slacker, and thinks that he is a ladies man... which often leads to hilarious situations concerning girls. In the case of this episode, he is about to order in a fast food and just didn't notice that the girls are screaming because of the appearance of the MOTW that kinda looks like a fat Terry Bogart from King of Fighters. The MOTW is basically a guy who likes to eat a lot and not surprising, his moves are based on food!
Much to my surprise, they decided to do the Shark Driver finisher early in the episode, only for it to miss! Seriously, the guy didn't trigger the necessary death flags for an early defeat. Oh well, at least his sudden disappearance has something to do with the plot of this episode because he has the ability to change his size! In this case, he became small like a fly just to enter Seikai's mouth and use it as a shield for any potential attack while he is busy munching down anything that Seikai eats!
Because Seikai is currently under the influence of the MOTW, he keeps on eating and eating until he becomes a giant! If there is one thing that impressed me in this scene aside from the special effects is Seikai's clothes. I mean, that stretching can rip his clothes in an instant! But considering the MOTW's ability to change its size, including its clothes, then I guess his clothes might have been affecting by the ability. After Sasuke investigates Tsuruhime's chest, I mean, Seikai's stomach, our heroes discovered the cause of Seikai's sudden growth spurt and they will do everything just to remove the MOTW out of Seikai's body.
Aside from the usual pepper plot just to remove something out of someone's body, they also tried the giant roast chicken plot so that the MOTW will be forced to leave outside Seikai's body. The thing with the giant roast chicken plot is that it will work, just as long as Seikai has self-control. The problem is Seikai doesn't have any self-control that is why he just breaks the chains that binds his body and munches down the giant roast chicken.
Tsuruhime is disappointed because of Seikai's lack of self-control and the willpower to resist food. This leads to Seikai's proposition to have Tsuruhime inside the food because Seikai can't eat her for one reason, he likes Tsuruhime. I am not sure what's running on his mind when he did that confession but considering Tsuruhime's face, I guess she is not happy about it. It didn't help that the guy who likes her is someone that you can't say, your ideal man.
Tsuruhime leaves Seikai and after realizing Seikai's sincerity, she checks Seikai's condition. Much to her surprise, the guy is actually trying his best to remove the MOTW out of his body on his own! For once, we saw Seikai do something in his own hands without relying much on his teammates. Because of this determination, Tsuruhime finally agrees with Seikai's plan to well, have Tsuruhime inside a giant food, in this case, Tsuruhime transforms into one tasty and juicy hamburger. Much to my surprise, Seikai can actually resist the temptation of eating a hamburger considering that this is one of his favorite foods to munch on.
At the end, the MOTW left his body because of Seikai's willpower not to eat a hamburger. Now that Seikai is back to normal, it is time to fight the MOTW! The quality of the fight scenes is still the same from the previous episode. The only thing noteworthy is Tsuruhime and Seikai's own slashes. Just like what Saizou did in one episode, they did a specific slash that corresponds to the symbol in their forehead protectors or ninja headbands. In Tsuruhime's case, her slash is the K Slash while Seikai's slash is the Triple Slash.
The MOTW decides to grow big after receiving a lot of damage coming from our heroes. The Muteki Shogun combining scene in this episode is not as cool as the previous Muteki Shogun combining scene, because they just rush it in a really bad way. Instead of showing us key scenes of the combining sequence, what they did is to create a new clip featuring all five Juusho then do a hand gesture to form Muteki Shogun. It's so boring compared to the cool running sequence in the original Muteki Shogun combining scene.
After defeating the MOTW after they formed Muteki Shogun, Seikai is eating hamburgers when Tsuruhime approached him. This is when he asked if he can have a date with our favorite ninja princess. Her answer is something that I already expected, a big no. Guess the scene on how he resisted eating a Tsuruhime hamburger is not enough to impress her!
