and this arc shows what happens when you blow your load halfway thorugh, this ep is basically setting everything for next week up. the preview for next week also makes it obvious what's going to happen here Daiji sees Akeshi's monster form realizes he's been maniuplated this whole time and that Akeshi was behind Akemi's death and rejoins the good guys. I'm more interested in seeing if KAgerou will be back (we'll probably see Evil's equivalent to Holy Live in a V Cinema)

Oh Daiji, why you are so stupid?
Seriously, he even more annoying than Kenzan and Daiji's conflict is really forced and boring.... But, maybe Kagerou can be comeback because triggered by Daiji's negative emotion.. |

honestly the worst part of this show by a country mile is the villains other than Aguelia(Whose been redeemed I'd be fine with this if the show didn't warp itself to let it happen but whatever), Julio (who is barely in the show but he was fine in that he actively hasn't annoyed me yet unlike Giff/Akeshi/Daiji and he is on the good guys now I'd be fine with this if he wasn't just there), and Otelca(who I said it before and I'll say it again they shouldn't have killed him off when they did) Last edited by Mmicb0b; 06-12-2022 at 03:45 AM.. |

I kind of don't care what happens in this show anymore. It's mostly all just background noise at this point, what a shame.
Daichi is such a ridiculously dumb written character though. Absolutely awful. The only saving grace in this episode was Sakura calling him out on his bullshit and was absolutely going to physically rip him apart if they would've let her. I wish they did. Seeing George handing over the Drivers makes me hopeful to see the real Kamen Rider Demons return though, that would be cool. Also, Kamen Rider Vail obviously still has some role to play, I only today remembered that his belt and the Kabuto stamp have still not been released as toys, meaning they have a function that was not yet shown. And Vail did just offer a partnership to Daichi that the latter might now be desperate enough to accept after what happened and is going to happen next week. |

Was it just me, or was that whole actoin sequence at the end in that forest filled with a lot of really awkward and abrupt cuts?
Very much a Part 1 of 2 episode, this one, and the preview does seem to heavily indicate that this thread of Daiji turning to the dark side is going to end(?) with Revi and Live punching it out. I do find myself wondering though, after that brief scene early on with Vice talking to Ikki about humanity and Gifu possibly getting along if... that could actually end up happening? As of now, we've not had any reason to assume Gifu is anything other than an evil force of nature, but what a twist would it be if it turned out to be something for our heroes to get to know and befriend instead?! It would be one heck of a way to make Akashi and Vail 'lose'. |

I appreciate Akaishi having an actual Deadmans form because by this point in the last two shows they usually can't resist making a major villain into a Rider.
I'm surprised it's not more based off of Apollo Geist though. Is it meant to homage Great Leader? It doesn't really look it. It reminds me more of Z from ToQger. |

It's Episode 39!
-Things are getting a bit wild as we rapidly approach the endgame, they even pulled out the Amazons filter for a bit! Let's see what we have here.... -Hey! Akaishi commented on Revice's new power, but Daiji....You were literally watching their debut, saw them dispel a direct attack from the Giff you're so scared of, and yet you still say what they're doing is a waste of time?! I know he's off the deep end, but not even addressing Ultimate's potenial seems like he's being willfully ignornant. -I know I'm probably not supposed to take Vice's line seriously but like. I wonder how "peaceful" method of combating Giff even work..? I haven't been keeping my pulse on the show's mythos on demons(Im not sure the show is either, at certain points!) but like. Isn't Giff like, an alien or something. I feel like that inherently puts a wrench in understanding each other, in comparsion to normal demons, who are inherently connected to humanity, in all its good and evil? It's a tricky thing to figure out. -We get more Hikaru focused beats! I actually did want something like "Although the Ushijima family is a mere ruse, Hikaru grows attached and starts seeing them as such, and protecting that "family" is a major part as to why he fights as Over Demons". However, this is.....Ngl, it's an interesting idea with a fumbled exceution? For starters, Weekend Mom's been absent for like a dozen eps, quitely returning to the cast at EP 36. She's by far the least developed of the family by a landslide. If they wanted to make me feel something, at least give them a moment or two, can't you? (I will say Vice suddenly going up and hugging him, that was unexpectedly sweet.) -The last chunk of this episode....it's a Lot! There's always been an implication that Daiji and Sakura are a bit closer to each other than to Ikki (younger siblings typically are!) so Sakura being unwilling to fight makes sense, but her staying untransformed for so long feels a bit weird? We've seen Jeanne can play defense plenty of times before too? Daiji..is a mess! For all his talk about justice and protecting the world, he really just sounds a blubbering fool trying to lick his wounds, hurling insults at his family that could be easily directed at him. It's ugly, it's pathetic, it's an downright embrassing look-and I'm kinda enjoying the ride. Granted, I wish the road to this path wasn't so.....ham-fisted/strung together at points. Looking forward to see how the hell Ikki pulls him back from this one seeing the level of delusion he's operating on. |

Oh, hey. Akaishi is gonna get a monster form. Neat.
Anyway, I can actually see why Daiji is being the way he is. He's not his brother, who meddles in things he doesn't understand and gets rewarded, nor his sister, in which reality itself warps around. He's a realist who did everything in his power to save those around him, and still failed. Mentally broken, he's taking the path of least resistance. He knows Akaishi is playing him. He knows Giff is evil. He just wants to save as many lives as possible. Conversely, Ikki and Sakura wants to give humanity a choice rather than live under oppression. However, that means lives will be lost, as demonstrated in this episode. The key issue isn't about whether or not Ikki can beat Giff. It's about how many lives will Giff, Akaishi, and Vail can (And will) take before he can accomplish that. (Unfortunately, the series does seem to imply that Daiji doesn't have faith in Ikki's ability to win, but still, this point does stand) Anyway, despite building up to the climax, Revice is definitely dragging it's heels.
