Also I noticed something similar between this and Journeys: Bel got Perfect Dangerous as abruptly as Goh's Drizzile evolved into Inteleon.

Yeah I agree, very random but it was inevitable nonetheless

Episode 44
Shu: But it's not our job to make him (Payne) realize that.
Valt: (smiles) you're right. 

Meaning Valt and Shu left it to the pros (Bell and Rashad)

Why would we get Valt vs Pain? That was just a match to show off heavy mode and what the armor can do.

Bell and Rashad are not the pros, Valt and Shu are.

He meant that in a sarcastic manner. Why so serious?

Maybe this is when Rashad truly losses it and really shows off his antagonist vibes just like the manga

Hell I wouldn’t be surprised if Rashad breaks Phoenix and calls Phenomeno something even more morbid than “boring”

This might trigger Bell and make him wanna beat him for good and make him realize that he’s the one who is wrong idk it’s just my little theory

It's cool, and yes I'm sensitive to Valt losing. I admit that.

To be fair right when Pain hit Valkyrie to the bottom floor just to trap it in its armor Valt could have easily just used Ultimate Slash V to counter Phoenix attack right before it could hit it to the bottom floor plus it’s not he got destroyed I just say it’s plot and that they just don’t have writing skills to make sense as to why Valt lost when they give us so many reasons of how he can win etc but either way Pain winning shouldn’t be a problem I say Valt fans should be glad by the fact they need plot or an antagonist or protagonist to even beat him

Seriously? Valt fan's should be lucky that the characters have plot? Plot is part of the show. That's like saying "oh, my favorite character only lost because of plot nothing else." I can say the same thing about the end of the show: "oh, Shu only lost to Valt because of plot armor." I've never heard anyone say plot armor when Bell loses or a rookie but when its Shu, Lui, Free, and Valt now you bring up plot armor. The rookies have evolved over the course of the years. Not all of them are like Valt and need practice, some are just naturally talented. Same in the real world.

Thank you, it's about time someone said it. It's annoying seeing fans say plot armor when a new blader defeats Valt, Free, Lui, or Shu. Like, get off your high horse and just accept that your favorite character lost fair and square.
