Not a whole lot of action this episode, but the character interactions were great. Not sure how I'm supposed to feel about Hiro's betrayal. I'm really hoping there's something more to it, otherwise it just makes him seem incredibly short-sighted. Not to mention Level 50 Brave somehow swatting Level 99 Ex-Aid out of a Critical Finish when Para-DX could only futilely paw at him a few episodes prior. Hope it all gets explained next episode.

I'm guessing Level 99 Ex-Aid has a big opening on his back side when doing his rider kick. Para-DX may or may not have known about it.

Ghost levels of bad writing with Hiiro. Hoping there is more to his betrayal, cause wow.

Hiiro's betrayal kinda makes sense to me, he wants Saki back, Masamune will just give him Saki if he joins him instead of having to beat the guy who can kill you in less than a second

Just because they didn't show him agreeing to join Cronus doesn't mean he did it on a whim. Cronus has the Proto Gashats - the cards are in his hand. The fact that he can revive Kiriya under his control means he very likely has some kind of control over them and their data (and that's beyond the fact that there's nothing stopping him from destroying them).
Not only does that mean Saki, but everyone who got a game over.

Hence why I said I hope there is more to it. I don't like repeating myself. Because as it stands, it's terrible writing.

I'm absolutely loving how much Ex-Aid is really pushing the video game theme for its narrative. You've got the devs like Kuroto who genuinely want people to enjoy the game, the tournament players like Emu and Nico, the actual video game antagonists like Pallad, Graphite and Poppy and then the publishers like Genm Corp with its corrupt CEO that merely sees video games as a way to profit.

It's why I love this series so much. It really feels like everything is centered around the video game industry to some extent, and isn't just a typical Kamen Rider show.
Glad to see someone else pick up on that. He kinda gives off a Keiji Inafune vibe.
I wonder if that actually inspired his character in some way. I would'nt be surprised with the overt and subtle video game references they keep weaving in.

I'm glad to see the shift back into Video Games as I remember we had at least 8 episodes about doctors in which the series forgot the other half of its theme.

So it seems like Genm Corp. moved into the now former offices of the Kougami Foundation. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Can't really judge whether or not something is terrible writing before the show even has a chance to explain anything.

Ohhhhhh, we got an Edge Lord in the house! - I kid, I kid!
Look, Ex-Aid, while certainly not perfect, has at least explained their seemingly bad decisions to make sense of them pretty much every time thusfar. Typically, when we're not shown an otherwise important chunk of information, it's for dramatic purposes and we get the rest of that scene in the following episode. There's no reason to believe this development will be any different.
