This episode is so good and it gives Gyro so much character growth.

I may be wrong but I think the male robber's helmet may be a nod to Joker, from Akira the leader of the Clown Gang, he's a much bigger part of the manga.

I don't think FOWL is limited to only birds, but no, Akita is not part of the organization. His goals pretty much go against what High Command wants- Bradford keeps saying how they're not destroying the world, just controlling it, and Akita obviously is going the traditional burn-cities-to-the-ground supervillain route.

To answer some of your questions. Doctor Akita was a Shiba Inu. The title of this episode and B.O.Y.D.s backstory is actually a reference to the anime Astro Boy, and that last "unnecessary shot" was actually one of Astro Boys most recognizable poses.
Anyways, with that said, this was a great reaction! I can't wait to see your reaction to the next episode, it's one of my favorites! The only downside was that it happened right before Ducktales FIRST break of season 3 and we had to wait 3 more months to get episodes 8+. Luckilly you don't have to deal with that though! xD
