EPISODE 01 - IT'S JUST A TOY COMMERCIAL, GUYS:

This 2-minute introduction prologue somehow succeeds in promoting the franchise itself and prompts to make even more merchandise after every model is introduced in this series. *sigh* At least has the effort to be fresh unlike other introductions, so it's not too bad. Also epic production values is one of the highest selling points.

Oh, and who cannot forget Mitsuru Hongo, and his roster which includes the infamous Outlaw Star, the boring first-half of IGPX, the epic, but poor Deltora Quest animation fiasco which didn't sync well with the models, the milking shit that is Battle Spirits, and... this?

Suddenly, he witnesses the voice who calls him.

As you can see, adults are ordered to change direction so that the adult can be able to work on their schedule. Yet this father has the gal to say this is the "last time", which Guren notices that he's lying. It will be another important plot point later on.

Max is your pet; pets are supposed to sympathize with humans, aren't it?

Someone launches out a origami bird paper into said new student and it turned out to be Ceylan. It's always noticeable on those other shows when you're the comic relief.

Ceylan(AKA Comic Relief) goes unnoticed during the class session.

Later on, that voice turns out to be a robot toy figure who walks out for mysterious purposes.

Then why discuss instead of entering immediately the shop? Then later on, it's clear the very "anyone" is the sole owner.

Maybe these two blocks with their distinct colors will be used somewhere when the plot demands to. What's next?

Later on, these distant events depicted in the dreams will somehow be occurred, and will affect these characters as well. Feels like we've been spoiled big time, guys.

Unexpectedly these two will be involved in what will be the biggest Quartron war still occurring. This just screams toy commercial whether it will be fooling, or at least guaranteeing you it's not.

Then we get directed to the tutorial scene. Forwards this scene, we have another plot point that involves Villius's attempt to exterminate these two knights. This isn't the first time this serious trope is not only abused, but overused as hell.

Mind if I suggest you to ask their Tenkai functions instead?

Suddenly we have... another Tenkai Army leaded by Beag. But following this episode I think this will be an awesome ride, if it doesn't stay like a shitty toy commercial that is. (-2 sins)

I said you it's Mitsuru Hongo's doing. Don't you dare deny it wasn't directed by him. Seriously, just google his name and look at his roster.

EPISODE 02 - WHAT ARE THESE TOYS AND WHAT ARE THEIR HISTORY:

Guren's narration is... a interesting attempt at awesomeness. Being this cool, huh?

That hologram though will calm you down for a quick exposition scene despite its intimidating stance, which is again an attempt to freshness. Did I mention "toy commercial"?

I also have lots of question on which I'll attempt to uncover very soon.

And Ceylan will give up at any given time, since he's nothing but a whiny brat when it comes to such tasks. He will refuse no matter what.

Cool shot, but it's a god damn spoiler about a distant event. Can't this be guarded off from later episodes or even for the final episode or something?

Ceylan just read my mind.

That Tenkai Statue will trigger an important plot element, and it's going to use two other characters for exactly that. It's now a Tenkai Key Stone, which will uncover another important plot element. But these two other characters? Why are they even there when they should be introduced like, RIGHT NOW or something?

Mr. White uses "pizza" as excuse for his research regarding the Tenkai terminology.

"What 'butt'?" They have their own terminology, so don't leave out weird words such as this.

Bravenwolf and... Tributon of the "Homework" are now under-prepared to take off into battle. Compared to the Beag army, which are perfectly fit for the awesome mess they'll involve themselves into.

The problem is this Bravenwolf is a newbie. No one recognizes that these are the new Tenkai Knights. And Tributon can't into battle because he is also a newbie.

Surprisingly, Valorn and Lydendor are better than those two other Knights around. Unlike Guren and Ceylan, they are the Tenkai Veterans.

They found a Tenkai Dragon piece. Yep, just like that Tenkai Key Stone they witnessed transforming into. Talk about "selling out its own merchandise" than "toy commercial".
