HIDEN Manufacturing Co. Ltd.'s Office.

Aruto has created and founded a new company, known as HIDEN Manufacturing Co. Ltd.! All of a sudden a new client rushes in to see them! "I want to help people who are being affected by the sudden disappearances of their Humagears!" It was none other than Choichiro Ishizumi, the famous manga artist who had previously enlisted the assistance of the Manga Artist-Type Humagear, G-Pen Morifude! He wishes for G-Pen, who has been deactivated ever since ZAIA shut down the Humagears, to be reactivated again! Aruto decides to help by using a "turnover" system to restart G-Pen once again!


Episode Trope:

  • And Then What?: Horobi tries to convince Jin of this, arguing that even if they are freed, as long as humans are dominant, Humagears will be powerless, and without a support network, they will not survive on their own. Unsurprisingly, he agrees when Jin asks if that means they should be put under the control of metsuboujinrai.net.
  • Bait-and-Switch: Shesta was seemingly recovered to assist Aruto and Izu in HIDEN Manufacturing, but she instead transformed into Matsurida Z, feeling they would more importantly require a celebration instead.
  • Broken Record: Because G-Pen did not yet achieve Singularity before his shut-down, all he was able to do was wander aimlessly and occasionally repeat "I cannot connect to Satellite Zea."
  • The Bus Came Back: This episode marks the return of G-Pen Morifude and Choichiro Ishizumi since episode 5 and Matsurida Z since episode 13..
  • Character Development: Coming off from his Heel Realization in Episode 5, it is revealed the reason why Ishizumi wanted G-Pen to be reactivated was not so he can continue being his assistant, but after realizing G-Pen had what it takes to be one, he wants to help him debut as an independant manga artist.
  • Combination Attack: Attempted by Thouser and his two Battle Raiders to defeat Zero-One but ultimately defied by the arrival of Jin.
    • Done much more successfully by Jin and Aruto however, when they unleashed their double rider kicks on Thouser.
  • Conflicting Loyalty: Yua shows signs of this when Aruto talks to G-Pen about his new dream and not being a tool to someone else, which causes her to hesitate to shut down G-Pen.
  • Crowd Panic: A large crowd panics over witnessing a wandering G-Pen, incurring the arrival of A.I.M.S. to dispose of the HumaGear despite him acting completely non-malicious.
  • Percussive Pickpocket: During her fight with Fuwa, she snatches the Assault Wolf Progrise Key away from him this way.
  • Rule of Three: Yua thoroughly defeated for the third time by Fuwa.
  • Say My Name: "Don't act like this is over... Aruto Hiden! I will crush your company to the ground!"
  • Take a Third Option: Horobi states that there are only two paths for Humagears. Either as humanity's slaves under Zea's network, or as humanity's destroyers under Ark's network. Jin, upon seeing Aruto's true intentions, decides to instead help Humagears reach Singularity, so that Zea and Ark won't be needed at all.
  • Transformation Is a Free Action: Yua attempted to strike down Fuwa during his Transformation Sequence but to no avail as he managed to block off said attack.
  • Villainous Breakdown: Gai clearly doesn't have a good day for him after Yua's failed attempt of destroying G-Pen and his repeated defeat in the hands of Zero-One.
  • Villainous Rescue: Just before Thouser and his lackeys can execute their respective Finishing Move, Jin arrived just in time to assist Zero-One in his battle.
