Aguilera's so frustrated about him showing up and stealing her focus, Julio's mocking her about it and Olteca's waiting to see what happens next. They're an entertaining group of villains.
This had happened before too, where Ex-Aid had Graphite beaten at ep. 10, the first time the doctor Riders worked together. But later he'd got an upgrade to the point that he's on par with Cronus. I guess upgrades in some form too for Olteca and Julio? I feel that Aguilera purposely acted demure, for some reason against Kagerou.. despite her manhandling Sakura and her showing bossy attitude to others that time, but don't think she has been upstaged yet. And this kinda reminds me of, for example, the tokusatsu originated from my country Bima (not the X one), where Topeng Besi, the supposed 2nd in command, was upstaged quickly, exploding from a slash of Helios (bow mode)... Rasputin did refer to him as failure too at one point.

She may also be a pervert, as Sakura seems to be trying to avoid romantic relationships the most. Also, given that we have a kaijin demon and a human demon, I will assume that its variation turns out to be a pet toy.
No offense, but for "trying to avoid romantic relationships", I think like Genta and Yukimi, you too need to learn for how males and females can interact without building love, in her with "Tamaki", as she'd befriend the other males at her dojo too y'know, like the one she apologized too after sparring. Really... interacting with "Tamaki" for a short time while him being utterly unable to properly socialize doesn't spark anything romantic, moreover Sakura didn't even interact with him more closely compared to other males in the dojo.
Otherwise, I honestly don't know how will the demons manifest, though it seems to exist in everyone, like Hiromi at the beginning, but his Rider form doesn't involve demons, other than the name, so dunno if Sakura's demon would be someone who interacted with her regularly like Vice and Kagerou, but personally I don't think that being funny, chatty, and girly isn't a negative trait (of which a demon seems to represent), so I'd think her demon may be someone who'd wish the worst or attacking anyone who has "unimpressive" or "undesirable" traits; from how she reacts negatively to many things regarding her family (but has limits where she'd compliment those who did well like Ikki at ep. 3), but didn't go for malicious route for them (where the demons may will, and for outside family as well).

The show is pretty weird! There are a lot of aspects I can really appreciate, but then there are also parts that feel like complete misfires too. Conceptually, I really like both the drama and the humor. Like, everything with Daiji is interesting, but it is an awful lot to have so much happen to him in the span of 8 episodes. I don’t know enough about him, or heck, anyone at this point to get invested beyond the surface level of “Oh no, bad things are happening to this nice family!”. Similarly, I find a lot of the humor pretty good, but the delivery is often not great! Except George, who is always in peak weirdo comedy form. The show isn’t bad, but the plot beats feel more like episode 30 than episode 8 to me, so I hope they slow down and let the character get more low stakes moments more often.
I guess George's shady and suspicious side weren't really played for comedy, except him moping at Vice mocking his JAckal design I guess, so this one doesn't fall under comedic sociopathy. Still George is a blatantly over the top character so... I'd hope the "solution" is not to make everyone like George or such, where there are unfair view where characters who are act like a clown, or loud obnoxious, or being wild, over-the-top, etc. where otherwise people are quick to label them as if they have "no personality" (for comedy wise too, yeah being over-the-top can have divided reaction though not for George, but other forms of accepted comedy is usually people causing others misery and having no shame; and usually morally questionable comedic characters are the ones that is universally accepted, which George is one of them; other examples are Kuroto and the Taros Imagins except Kintaros). I think I want to give a normal, grounded characters more credit in characterization (probably kinda one of the reasons I post long here). I guess people can make fast assumptions about Daiji as well, like thinking he may be Micchy 2.0 or such (while personally I think he's similar to Ichijou from Kuuga so far).
