Summary

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1_1_98.jpg
It's high noon... Zenkaiger style.
Setchan: Previously on… Zenkaiger!
Battle Caesar Robo showed up from out of nowhere, and threw Great Recycle Wald — his supposed ally — right in the trash!
Just what the heck's going on?

Under the promise that he'll be let into the Tozitend Palace from Stacy to retrieve the SDtopia Gear, Zocks challenges Kaito to another duel! With Kaito's life on the line, Stacy and Ijirude's plan starts to make itself known.

Tropes

  • Batman Gambit: Turns out Kaito's death (and the whole entire duel for that matter) was a ruse to expose Stacy's plan. After Zocks supposedly killed Kaito, Kaito used Sentai Gear #11 (Hikari Sentai Maskman) to utilize the Maskman' Aura Power to protect himself and escape before Zocks actually dealt the final blow.
  • Curb-Stomp Battle: After exchanging a few blows and one mode change, Zocks successfully destroys Battle Caesar Robo with TwokaiOh.
  • Dance-Off: When Kaito starts dancing thanks to the power of Battle Fever J, Zocks thinks he's trying to upstage him and dances too, resulting in this trope.
  • Duel to the Death: Kaito and Zocks engage in this once again, with the SDtopia Gear and Kaito's life on the line.
  • Empty Promise: It turns out Stacy never intended to keep his side of the deal, instead having planned to eliminate the Goldtsuikers after using them to execute Kaito. Everyone had expected this however, as it turns out the duel was just a Staged Shooting to fool him and Kaito was in fact alive all along.
  • Mythology Gag:
    • Kaito shouts out one of the final lyrics of the Liveman opening when using Sentai Gear #12.
    • Kaito floats in a pose akin to Commander Sanjurou Sugata when using Sentai Gear #11.
  • Power Up Let Down: Sentai Gear #3 (Battle Fever J) grants its user Dance Battler abilities...which proves to be entirely useless in the face of Twokaizer's Ohran form's raw power, as Kaito quickly finds out.
