Episode 15
Episode 15 at first shows an old-man demon whose main power seems to
be ingesting a lot of alcohol and breathing green smoke that makes
other people see pink pigs that turn into dangerous snakes.
Lúci is sitting in the bar where the demon is wreaking havoc.
Meanwhile, the Angels are standing around at rehearsal reflecting on
what happened when Crow came in. Reiko gets a phone call from
Kirari's manager, who is standing beside a truck with the Hearts'
picture on it. Next thing we see, the Angels and Reiko are in their
van heading over there. They see a poster that advertises Kirari
and the Hearts and having a joint concert. As soon as they walk
into the concert hall, a book hits Reiko in the face. Although I've
wanted to do that since the series started, the credit actually
goes to Kazuya, who follows it up by saying something the Angels
don't like. Hishou goes after him, but Kazuya simply steps aside
and Kyle leaps forward to protect him.
Incidentally, the Hearts are already wearing their long black coats
and stage make-up. Hishou goes for Kazuya again and this time
Kirari gets in the way. Hishou throws a temper tantrum over Kazuya
in the backstage area while the other Angels talk (Ginga is putting
on make-up with a powder puff).
The Angels are next seen dressed up as the Hearts (wigs, make-up,
clothes) while Kazuya inspects them (not surprisingly, Hishou is the
one dressed as Kazuya). The Angels rehearse at the instruments
posing as the Hearts. When the actual concert begins, the Angels
(still in costume) are watching the Hearts perform on a backstage
monitor. The old-man drunk demon shows up.
Kazuya is interviewed with Kirari and talks about his background.
We see him as a kid who didn't have anything in common with other
children until he started playing a guitar and then they all flocked
to him. Kazuya seems to issue a personal challenge/insult to Hishou
(maybe something about his not belonging on their stage). The
Hearts perform again, the Angels are watching from the wings in
costume. At a certain point, the Angels run onstage and take the
place of the Hearts.
The demon arrives and unleashes his power on the audience. Hishou
is about to act when Kazuya puts a hand on his shoulder and speaks
to Kirari. He starts playing an acoustic guitar while she sings a
different song than usual. No one else is making a sound onstage
but the two of them. The song seems to nullify the effect of the
demon. The Angels are watching and even Hishou admits it's pretty
cool. The demon mutates in a big white flash into a worse-looking
demon, and Kazuya quickly gets Kirari off the stage as the audience
is attacked.
There's an onscreen five-way transformation for the Angels. Eagle
Flare and Condor Lance are used, but the snakes coming off the demon
grab Falcon, and then Crow shows up, cutting the snake in two with
Crow Sword. Crow says something to Hishou that reminds him of
something Kazuya said, and so realizes who he is. Crow uses an
attack Crow Cut, coming off as two shots that hit either side of the
demon. He then tells the other Reideens something about what's
going on (concerning the gems and the bad guys etc) and they seem
rather shocked by it.
When his back is turned, the snakes attack Crow and then the other
five Reideens. They're hopelessly trapped until a rainbow attack
hits the demon--Reideen Isis has arrived. His outfit is green and
gold, with an elaborate Egyptian design on the chest and cool
backswept 'feathers' on his helmet. Crow knows him. Isis uses the
attack Isis 'Subyuto' that uses a pair of drumsticks which attach
themselves to the demon with long ropes (looks like a whip). He
uses Isis Rainbow again. It goes down the demons throat and the
thing explodes from the inside out. Crow and Isis go off together
while Lúci watches.
Later, Hishou, his mother, and Tsubasa watch Kazuya and Kirari being
interviewed again, Kazuya says something about believing in power.
Hishou looks very intense as he watches.
Meanwhile, the other boys aren't too happy either. Hishou stands
onstage alone, listening to Kazuya's voice in his head. His feather
appears on his arm. He makes what sounds like a vow concerning
Crow/Kazuya.
