This is from the next episode preview, I guess no comment is further required.

To be fair the show wasn't really going anywhere without him either lol

Really liked this episode. Its about time we get some actual character development for some of the other characters and to be honest I really like Lt. Otta when the show actually does something with him. Being Charcterized as a big klutz that really takes pride in being a cop and takes his job very seriously. Thats something that never really shined through before and makes the comedy bits that he has in this episode much more tolerable.

I also like that we get more Cop stuff in this episode. This felt like a police drama for kids that had super heroes in it and thts what I wanted this show to be from the very start. The case is interesting too and while reminiscent of a similiar case in Double approaches it very differently.

I cant wait to see the conclusion of this case since even though the twist made it look like Tachibana was Judge I get the feeling there is still something more to it.

I Agree, my respect for Lt. Otta just went up a lot, I hope he gets the spotlight again one day.

His goofyness just works alot better in my opinion when its just an expect of his character and not the only thing his character is about. And I hope he learns about Shinnosuke being Drive next episode. It wouldnt make any sense for him not to find out about it.

Yea, He deserves to know the truth XD and also its cool to see more of Rinna's inventions, I can see her making her own rider down the road

Yeah its cool that her own inventions are getting more advnced now and that she isnt just building stuff that was designed by Steinbelt.

I think it'd be best if Otta knows Shinnosuke is Drive and Gou is Mach. That way they can assist him on some crime missions that can't be solved easily.

Its for the best that we get everyone in on the secret now over the next few episodes. There was no need at all to stretch this sideplot for so long and its even more pointless to stretch it any further.
