#I just hope it's not some shenanigans and Horobi is 'faking'

[firebirdsdaughter]

Let me get this straight, Aruto and Jin were on the same side for a bit now, but suddenly something happens and Aruto is going against Jin, only for Horobi to step in between them and shield his son. Also, it looks like Aruto is 'purifying' Horobi and protecting him (but from whom?).

Uh… Yes?

To me, Aruto and Jin ‘coming together’ was a bit rushed, so I don’t mind them stepping back a bit, but I do wonder how they’re going to swing it bc the most logical reasons feel like they’ve already been ignored/smoothed over, from my perspective. Jin doesn’t seem to care Aruto killed him, hasn’t mentioned Horobi’s death. Aruto’s acting like he didn’t kill him… It’s weird.

Maybe Aruto called a HumaGear a human’s partner one too many times, I don’t know.

Meanwhile, while I do hope that’s actually what it looks like and Horobi really is protecting Jin… Oh my gods, you idiot. Your son is henshined, at most he’ll be knocked out of his henshin. You are not henshined, you’re going to bloody die. Also he’s not wearing the ForceRiser, so he’s not transforming…

As for the other images… Parts of the scans I didn’t share show both Horobi and Aruto also fighting Thouser, along w/ some big headline that indicates a three way battle. Going by location, Horobi also fights Gai in the same area were Aruto is apparently protecting him… So it kinda seems like maybe Thouser knocks Horobi out of his henshin and then Aruto protects him… But there’s no way to actually know.
