It's Micchy all over again. Someone who was an unprecedented asshole that everybody wanted to see them get the worst punishment possible, but then they get the unexpected outcome of them releasing how much of a total prick they were being and want to redeem themselves. That's the most endearing thing about Rider. I liked it a bit better than Gentoku from Build, and I much as I love Build, even I'm willing to admit it was disappointing how out of nowhere and hand waved it was.
Can't wait for the next ep, Zero Two is coming soon.

Gai's not being forgiven in an instant, in fact, a major point in next week's episode is him trying to convince Yaiba and Fuwa to forgive him, which they don't want to do. Even Aruto wasn't expecting him to turn around, no one did and no one has just upped and forgiven him yet. Relax please. Last edited by TreyEl; 07-13-2020 at 01:28 PM.. |

I really don't think Gai's start on the road to redemption, emphasis on start, is as unbelievable as Mitsuzane's sudden OOC good guy business in the final arc of Gaim. Gai actually has a tragic backstory and his restored faith in AI gives him a reason to stop being so terrible. Mitsuzane is the worst and he can go to hell or jail, as far as I'm concerned, he didn't earn my sympathy at all.

I have a feeling Gai will later get possessed by the Ark in order for it to gain Ark-One.
I can imagine while inside of the Ark's influence, he sees his father scolding him as torment. But eventually, Aruto & illusions of Ichi-Gata & Korenosuke come to his rescue with the power of Zero-Two. It's a theory I thought up on. |

I almost shed a tear for Gai this episode. Being told that his best wasn't good enough must have really messed with him, and it's pretty interesting that despite his decision to get rid of Dogser, he still named his Rider form after him because it was his only source of happiness.

Wonder what’ll be the fate of Ikazuchi? Who’s side is he on? And what if he passes his key to Subaru to be the new Ikazuchi if he dies?

There is a very Citizen Kane vibe that I get from Gai especially as of this episode.

That's what I thought! Glad someone who's better with faces/cast listings could answer it.
