Shinkalion Change the World Ep 14 Review: Judgement
After the intense fight last episode, now it’s time to check out the aftermath. And in my surprise, Ina…might actually return for good this time. Since this episode mainly deals with what will happen to Ina as well as what happened to her. And we get a slight reveal of the next villain. Once again, the series is portraying ERDA in a bad light, a huge contrast to the previous 2 series. Other than that, we also get to see our next Driver!
For Ina, she has no memories of when she was brainwashed (of course). But the funny thing is she remember where and what she was doing right before she was “captured”. So at least she still has some clues. But what also baffles me is that Ina and ERDA didn’t immediately quarantine and investigate the “glitchy zoo” that we saw. Kacchan-sensei is trying his best to comfort Ina since she just lost years of her life to an evil organization and was doing their bidding. I really like him since he’s the dorky and caring sensei that is both reliable but also can joke with the youngsters.
But of course, the grumpy old man wouldn’t have it. He insisted on jailing Ina and assumed she was lying to spy on ERDA. Basically dude can’t look at a single positive thing in this whole incident. I wonder if he is secretly working with the villains or has a sinister plan of his own. Either way, he needs to be put in his place and the series is doing VERY well to create an unlikeable top wig in the mc’s organization that we usually see in more mature series.

And then we get to the new Driver – this time it is a high-school student president. I really like this guy – both his design and his personality. He’s the type to follow the rules to a miniscule T. Very similar to those “strict prefect and rebellious gyaru” romcom type. But Mogami Ganma is actually not averse to romance as he is in a relationship with his vice president – who is a caring and comforting onee-san (dude won). But yes, one can see how he will be “convince” to drive the Shinkalion. And his will be the E8 Tsubasa – the first of its type since previous Tsubasas were all E3.
For his piloting type, either he will fight with an iron fist or he will be bamboozled and refuse to participate in such “activities”. But of course, he will give in and fight – probably to protect his girlfriend. And by fighting, he will officially allow Taisei’s club to exist. I find it funny that he could even over-argue a teacher. But as we established before, Kacchan can be a pushover sometimes.

At least at the end, Ina finally was absolved of her actions and was even assigned the head of the Shinkalion Engineering division. This is similar to the original Shinkalion anime where the mc’s family is in charge of developing power-ups and stuff. No doubt Ina will create some badass equipment and, of course, once again drive a Shinkalion to “dock” with her little brother ( iykwim 😉 ). But for now, I look forward to Mogami and the E8 debut.
