Episode 9 of Brave Bang Bravern! is a suggestion that no matter how wild your work is, you can constantly toss another curveball at your audience.
Uh, I think Smith simply is Bravern? I needed to back it up and enjoy it two times to validate however it sure appears like Smith was born-again as Bravern and handled to return in time. I'm truthfully in wonder of the boldness of this plot point, simply a huge middle finger to paradox and time travel problems. Through the power of love, all things are possible, and so on. I didn't believe that there might be anymore homoerotic stress in the Isami-Smith-Bravern love triangle, and in some way Smith discovered a method to heroically compromise himself so hard that he collapsed the waveform and folded himself into Bravern entirely. Obviously, Bravern imitates a huge extremely robot/tokusatsu hero, due to the fact that he was covertly Smith and matured enjoying those programs. Impressive things.
I've likewise got to commend Smith for the elegant exit from the afterlife. Sure, all of us pass away ultimately, and we wind up in among any variety of relatively unlimited holding areas: Heaven, Hell, HFIL, Valhalla, the Shadow Realm, an inadequately lit Costco at 3 AM. Smith handles to not just get away from this zone of everlasting PS2 bootup area, however he does so in the most incredible method you can picture: by making a huge mecha robotic girl experience human feelings for the very first time and have a wonderful area climax. Smith, you outright legend!
There's some other things that takes place in this episode too! Bravern gets a rad brand-new type that is the envy of all kids who like toy robotics (I'm in that group too). The wicked robotics passing away was humorous, “I'm unfortunate that I'm not unfortunate” is a terrific last death line. It's a little difficult to parse in genuine time as I discovered myself believing about the time travel ramifications for the series, however it is fantastic.
