Hey everyone, guess what time it is!
Time for more understated, yet somehow even cooler behind-the-back explosions. Koichi Sakamoto knows what the people want.
I utterly adored this episode. It's definitely got most of the same problems that have been hounding Zi-O since the start (namely questionable story logic and a whole lot of missed opportunities), but between my guy Takkun stealing the show even when he's just standing around, the increasingly strong characterization of the main cast, the way the plot pays off all the setup from last week, and the once again excellent action, this is my favorite episode of the show so far.
They really exceeded my expectations when it came to blending the Fourze and Faiz plots together by not only having some clever twists (the shooting star thing was
very
smooth), but using the revelations of the Another Rider's motives to effortlessly pivot the story in a darker, more melodramatic direction that matches up perfectly with Faiz just as much as the last episode matched Fourze.
I also cannot understate how much I appreciate Sougo giving Geiz the Faiz Ride Watch as a gesture of trust. That was a shockingly proactive move from him and is just one more sign that he's gradually growing into the interesting character he was meant to be. He gets more and more kingly with each passing episode. The following dual timeline fight using Over Quartzer to highlight the teamwork going on was equally nice.
The whole concept of Geiz coming from the future and the ups and downs his relationship with the guy he's pretty sure is going to become an evil overlord one day has is just filled to the brim with dramatic potential, so the more focus that aspect of the show gets the happier I am.
