Makoto's role seems to be more antivillain than antihero, which is rather interesting. I wonder how long that's going to last--it'd be interesting if it was, well, more than like two episodes or something. Him appearing to be clearly heroic in Genesis raises some questions, but they could probably handle that like they did Takatora in the Sengoku movie (that is to say, pretty poorly, but still).

I didn't expect him to take the Edison Eyecon this early, but hey, I don't mind. The fact that they went out of their way to have him just barely not get Newton makes me think he's not going to be stealing that one, though.

Anyway, all of Makoto's finishers are pretty fucking cool, especially the Omega Fang. Makoto is cool.

Yeah, one of the biggest problems I've had with Ghost, and I thought Spectre would fix this, is the fights. They're too short and don't really do much in terms of leaving an impact on the viewer.
