Wow, that was terrible, huh? I guess I should be impressed that the episode managed to explain everything without actually answering any questions. I'm not a Phantom, I used science to become one and wield magic! What how?

Haruto you were chosen to be a Wizard, because you would power Koyomi, who is actually the Philosophers stone! What, why? And how?

. This plan is almost as ludicrously overcomplicated as Golgom's are and somehow the plan seems to have even less purpose and direction.

Haruto was such a dick this week, even with all the haters out there you can't say he is a passive protagonist like so many other Riders, yet here he continued to refuse to act and shit spiralled out of control because of it. It's funny, Nitou went from pointlessly standing in the background, being another unneeded comic relief character to becoming the more active, more herolike Rider.

Not to mention that Haruto has completely forgotten everything he learnt about friendship and sharing the load, fuck man I try so hard to defend you and I genuinely love you but come on man, work with me here.

Everything else? Koyomi really is a fucking TERRIBLE actress, coupling that with how much I don't give a fuck about her made most of the episode as unintentionally hilarious as it was dull. Anyone else think of this?

. That being said, I can't work out who is the worse actor, her or Fueki.

Also, this should be Koyomi's themesong:
