I'm really hoping that this will lead to the dancing part of the Beat Riders to be able actually become important to the plot instead of just as a part of the setting. Mai started dancing as a beat rider to try and remind the city of the Summer festival but that will probably be more expanded on during the summer.

This is much more in-line with what I want to see from the show, given what we've seen so far.

The future idea is cool and all, but it seems like it comes out of nowhere. It doesn't have the thematic resonance that I expect from the show. Maybe it will by the time it's revealed (if that's where the show is going), but I have my doubts.

If anything, I expect things to get more mystical as the series goes on. Throwing in a big sci-fi twist like time travel seems incongruent with the direction the show appears to be traveling.

But really, it's too early to know. Still fun to speculate.
