It's interesting how the MM sort of get treated like the attack dogs when they're really calling the shots. Like how Zolda and his monster faked his death, or how Ryuki stopped Dragredder from taking a monster's energy once.

Gotta say, though, that was a fumbled plot. Ryuki gets all down because he kills Zolda and it's treated all serious, but then when he finds out he didn't he grovels and then it goes into bumbling comedy. Uh...

Ah, alright then.

And I guess that they don't expand enough on the Mirror Monsters and the contract aspect enough, when 9 times out of 10 you'll see a monster like Darkwing or Magnugiga only ever show up just for finishers.

And plots involving Kitaoka and Shinji do feel more comedy, it's odd when Kitaoka is generally more of a serious character when in a scene with literally any other character.
