VR Troopers Episode 39 The Reality Virus

Well hello there everybody welcome to another Magic Happy VR Troopers Review, and today we are looking at The Reality Virus written by Mark Litton, and directed by John Grant Weil.

So we start off with today’s “my dad taught me” moment where Ryan talks about how his dad taught him that the one thing universal we take for granted is reality.

We then go to Tao dojo where the Troopers, and Tao are practicing karate, and after Tao leaves the Troopers get a message from the Professor telling them that Ivar, and Icebot are invading reality with Air Fighters, and Quantum Cruisers so they transform, and get in the Skybase.

When the Troopers fight the Air Fighters, and Quantum Cruisers Ivar, and Icebot load something called the reality virus (title drop) into a war head, and fire it at the Skybase but all it really does is cover the Troopers in green slime that disappears anyway, and Grimlord’s forces retreat.

At Ziktor industries Ziktor plays with his balls (that doesn’t sound right), and transforms into Grimlord, and summons Ivar, and Icebot, and they all explain that it was a trap to infect the Troopers with the reality virus which will now spread, and infect all reality.

Back at Tao dojo the Troopers talk about what happened earlier while some green slime spreads around the plants, and at the virtual dungeon Grimlord, and his mutants remind us of stuff we already know.

Then we go to the Underground Voice Daily where Woody is talking to the reporters when Kaitlin sees some of the green slime in her coffee cup, and on a paper, and Percy thinks it’s Sick Building Syndrome but Kaitlin suspects something worse.

Back at the virtual dungeon (or the Air Castle I’m not sure) Ivar, and Icebot talk about how there’s something that can destroy the reality virus but they don’t say what.

Ryan, JB, and Tao are trying to get the plants away from the green slime, and they notice it’s eating at the reality barrier then someone from the power company comes over for a courtesy call but tries to steal a plant, and transforms into an army of Skugs.

Ryan, JB, and Tao fight off the Skugs by punching, and kicking them then Ryan, and JB go into another room to fight two Skugs while Tao fights the other three.

Then it just goes back, and forth between Ryan, and JB in one room, and Tao in the other until they all kick the Skugs into each other.

At Ziktor industries one of Ziktor’s secretaries informs him of what’s going on while in the Virtual Dungeon Crabor is goofing around.

Grimlord appears, and summons the other mutants, and orders Renegade (who now has his old boring head), Minotaurbot, Chrome Dome, and Crabor to defend the virus.

Back at Tao dojo the Troopers get a message from the Professor explaining what’s going on, and they look at where the Skugs tried to steal the plants, and see a spot that hasn’t been infected with the virus but they don’t know which plant it was so they take some branches to the lab.

After an awesome but impractical scene with the Troopers in Kaitlin’s car they arrive at the lab, and give the Professor the branches, and he figures out what plant they need but they need more, and Grimlord’s mutants are attacking so JB, and Kaitlin transform while Ryan stays to help the Professor.

Air Fighters fire on the Skybase but JB, and Kaitlin destroy them, and some Quantum Cruisers while at the lab the Professor tells Ryan he’s programmed the coordinates to find more plants in his Turbo Cycle so he also transforms.

Renegade, Minotaurbot, Chrome Dome, and Crabor go to deal with Ryan so Renegade fires a laser at Ryan but he hides underwater.

But Crabor appears, and whips Ryan with his tentacles, and grabs him but JB fires a laser at Crabor so he retreats.

Then we see Ryan rescue a rabbit before he finds Crabor who goes back to grabbing, and whipping Ryan, and also throws blobs of slime from his hand to trap Ryan so Crabor can electrocute Ryan, and spit more green slime from his tongue.

But Ryan uses Supercharge to free himself then uses Lighting Hand to sever one of Crabor’s tentacles but it regenerates into a claw but Ryan uses Lighting Hand on Crabor, and kicks him destroying him.

Then Ryan finds the plant they need then Ryan jumps into the Skybase, and the Professor is able to right then, and there make an antidote, and load it into the missiles.

The Troopers fire missiles at random scenery, and that saves reality, and Grimlord once again swears vengeance on the Troopers.

Back at the Underground Voice Daily Woody shows the Troopers a story about the Troopers saving reality, and we get one last comedy bit with Percy.

Anyway “I miss you dad” the end.

Final Thoughts.

I liked the idea of a virus that could disintegrate the reality barrier.

Especially since it reminded me of Error in the System because of how the virus worked more like a computer virus than an organic one, and that episode had it where they had to make a computer virus in a factory, and transmit it from their end.

Really my only problems are nitpicks like some of the parts at Virtual Dungeon seeming redundant, or the part with the weird sky when everyone was in Kaitlin’s car.

I liked the fight with Crabor but once again I wished the Metalder episode had a new monster instead of just bringing back an old one back but that was more of a problem with Metalder.

And I didn’t like how they made Renegade go back to his old boring head after the cool winged serpent one in Ghost Biker but that could have been solved by just making this an earlier episode.

And the only thing I think they skipped from Metalder was stuff that they already used in Defending Dark Heart so there’s that.

Tune in next time everyone for more Magic Happy VR Troopers Reviews.
