there are so many plot threads here. Here are my guesstimates on how many episodes it's going to be.

1. introductions to powers at play: 8 episodes
2. Introductions to each states: 12 episodes.
3. Build and Claws rivarly: 6 episodes
4. Build's first upgrade: 3 episodes
5. Build vs Night Rouge: 3 episodes
6. Build vs Blood Stalk: 3 episodes
7. More faustian devils: 10 episodes

That's 42 episodes already.

Ryuga looks really annoying in end of this episode but yeah because Ryuga really want to know about Faust's hideout.

Next episode looks more serious.....

Man, five episodes in and we are already getting some big plot revelations. This is awesome. I can't wait to see what is in store next.

I had a REALLY hard time with this episode, and the sudden tone change of revealing our hero's past as a ROCKER and his.....let's say "enthusiastic" room-mate.....threw me for a loop. I actually see this episode as the first major fumble for this show, both for throwing in a character who is ACTIVELY annoying to see on screen (also, I'm not usually bothered by such things, but something about his personality and appearance felt kind of OFFENSIVE), and for revealing our amnesiac hero's "mysterious past" FAR too close to the starting gate (thus throwing away one of the big mysteries keeping us engaged).....and for not doing anything really interesting with it either. I feel this show was on a ROLE, with a great tone interspersed with moments of great comedy from characters who I could still take totally seriously. I'm going to give it time, see if the show gets back into it's stride.......hope to GOODNESS there is more to his past then a wanna-be rocker living in a trashy apartment with an offensive stereotype of a room-mate......and just keep my fingers crossed.

Have to give it 1 out of 5 in my option. I know you should judge a media as a whole, but the things that bugged me about this episode actually kept me from enjoying ANY part of it. Sometimes, it only takes a few gripes to completly overshadow any good qualities an episode might present for some people. I simply found the episode difficult to watch, no matter WHAT awesome stuff might have been happening between the cringy bits. Similar to how many folks who might have otherwise liked a movie could come out ABSOLUTELY HATING IT for on annoying flaw. The new anime "Black Clover" is a good example......the show itself looks like it has potential, but it is getting BASHED on the review front because the main character's voice is "annoying".......which appears to be pretty much the only criticism I see spoken of it, but still caused people to actively LOATHE the thing. Thankfully, he isn't screaming "ANIKI!!!" in my ear repeatedly while flailing about looking like an offensive otaku stereotype, so I can look past that one so far.

Still, I'm glad my opinion on this episode seems to be in the minority. Maybe the issue is mostly just me, as I don't really like "cringey" characters. Here's hoping these reveals didn't bother most other viewers, cause this show REALLY does seem to have potential, and I'd hate to have anybody else's faith shaken as badly as mine was.
