On the topic of Yuri's phone, from whose wallet did that come out of? Or did Yuri just magic himself some money like he does? I'd think it came out of Touma's, he does own a bookstore, though I don't know how successful that bookstore is. Probably is, though.

Regarding Reika's plan, by putting up what we know, she's looking for the sword of light and most likely has Kurayami in possession. Either her or Master Logos. So, she's most likely a follower to Master Logos' plan of the "Hontō no Chikara" or the true powah.

Personally, I can't imagine working three jobs is going great for Touma myself. He's got nobody to run that store but him, and lately it seems like most of his time is spent being hunched over and covered in bruises and cuts, which probably freaks out potential customers on the rare occasions he even has the opportunity to have the place open. I kinda wish Rider shows were still as episodic as Double or Wizard just so we could get a hilarious two-parter out of this about Touma trying to hire a part-timer or something. :lol

Oh THAT'S why this arc has been blowing my mind so much! I've been thinking this whole time "riders fighting each other is nothing new, why is it giving me emotions in Saber that it hasn't before?" and you just put it into words.

Am I going to be the only one here commenting on just how bad the continuity was in this episode? The time of day was changing from afternoon to sunset back to afternoon after almost every cut. It was incredibly distracting.

Otherwise, another solid episode. I can finally feel myself getting invested in these characters, so I can't wait to see how Fukuda wrecks it when he's put back in charge.

I still like the look of Saikou X-Swordsman. Yes, it's gaudy but that is entirely the point. And the design honestly looks more like an actual Rider than a good chunk of the other Swordsmen (which makes sense considering its roots).

I think Mei paid for that phone since she is probably annoyed by Yuri constantly stealing her phone for his own use/amusement.

Probably bought it off a secondary electronics store, since those really have good quality stuff with low prices.

I am absolutely treating this as canon now.

Welp, can't wait for it to nodded in ya writing.

haha, I was just thinking about how to work it in. :p

Huh? You write? Cool.

I write too much! In fact, I even have a thread about my tokusatsu fanfic here. :p Though, it's lacking any real index by show. I always feel self-conscious talking about my nonsense, because I feel it's unbecoming to blow your own horn, but if there is any interest, I will edit that first post with a proper list of what I've done.

*subliminal message: please buy my books if you like my fanfiction. :p*
