[Xtreme RX]

A good episode, evenly paced, but 4 episodes from the ending and I don't feel the endgame stress kicking in.

I loved White-Woz's role and I am glad they didn't reverse his change-of-heart from the last time we saw him. Honestly, seeing him again reminded me how much I missed those little mannerisms that differed from Black-Woz. Plus, the Woz vs Woz fight was cool, however (intentionally) brief it was. Instructing Sougo to use Trinity, his creation, was some pretty good writing.

Eternal also had some great moments. He had some fun fights with Aqua (seriously, that beach location is ACE) and even performed two Maximum Drive's, the second being a recreation of his Ultimate Armament attack from AtoZ. And on the topic of Double, it was super exciting to hear his battle theme play while Zi-O fought Eternal in Double Armour. Redirecting his attack to destroy the Another World was pretty cool and I'm glad Daido was okay with getting erased since it means he at least got a happy ending.

Kinda heartbreaking to see Geiz's world of possibilities and I hope all ends well for him and Sougo. Also, it was cool to see Yuki again but a lot of these Dark Rider suits got wasted. Only G4 used a special attack. I loved the dramatic music that played when they figured out Schwarz's target was Sougo all along... Like DUH. Ora's death was boring, so fitting for a boring character.

Now the real kicker here is that they killed Aqua! I didn't believe they had the creative liberty to kill off a Legend Rider and then they go off and do it! And just when he was starting to feel like a part of the main cast! I kind of doubt he's gone for good though. He'll be back when the timeline resets, mark my words.
