My Honest Thought
Well Fuuto Pi episode 5 is an episode without a fight scene after all. I begin to know the pattern.
I think Fuuto Pi will be 2.5 episode per arc at this pace. After all the first arc climax is resolved on episode 3. This arc also starting from episode 4 seems to climax at episode 6 (next episode) as well.
Is it a Good episode though?
Without a fight scene, an action oriented anime or even Kamen Rider really sounds boring.
In short, it is a good episode. Let me explain first.
What this episode lacks in fight scene is covered with the heavy detective mystery tone of this episode.
We get the suspect, we get the interogation. In short, we get many character interaction in this episode. Most notable being Shotaro and Monako pararel and how it is in a way pararels Tokime too.
Tokime mysterious power
It doesn’t look like an incident. Tokime sounds knocking out a Dopant. It looks like scene from One Piece…yeah i’m talking about Conqueror Haki. It has pretty much the same resemblance.
I think this has connection to Tokime, most probably being a Dopant also? or might be a “High Dope”. Since it is kinda explained in this episode that “High Dope” possess a higher power than normal Dopant.
My Verdict
I think for mystery solving wise, this episode does a good job exploring that side of Kamen Rider W. It just lacks that little fighting scene though.
For me it is a 4 out of 5 in regards of that.
