For a show with largely pretty solid, if not a little unfocused, storytelling I was disappointed the No Men come from nowhere and everyone acts like they're some huge deal. Honestly though I guess I'd rather this, than all of the fantastic introductions for things that ultimately end up going nowhere.

Huge chunks of Dragon Knight are just made up of wasted potential, honestly. Rewatching this show has not been kind. Kinda makes me wanna rewatch RPM and see how that holds up as it came out around the same time and it's been about the same length of time since I last saw that as well.

Not really all that hot on Wrath's suit design, but both he and Siren make feathers awesome - although Siren kinda sucks, Wrath seems a bit more of a badass. There were some really great action sequences in this episode.

Blade is still best as it only has four riders. Dragon Knight is proof that more Riders =/= better series. Pretty much all of the Dragon Knight Riders, bar Kit and Len, have been entirely pointless in the long term. And the actual Ryuki footage has largely been completely disconnected from their actual story and characters. It feels like they actively hate adapting Ryuki and will fight tooth and claw to deviate as far from that show as possible.

In itself it's great, as it creates very imaginative storytelling, but I can't help but wonder how much better the show could have been if they got to adapt a Rider show with a small cast of core Riders like they clearly wanted.
