[FreshToku]

Much as I like Evolt, I agree that there isn't much or any depth to him and all the appeal of him as a villain comes in his charisma and spectacle. I don't think it's a big problem when all the good character stuff is made up for by the heroes though.

Everyone is just at their best, and honestly it's hard to think of a moment across the entire series when they aren't, but Sento being out of commission for a few episodes gives even more highlight to the other riders. Seeing Rogue and Grease coming together after all fistfighting out their differences just feels right somehow.

Of course, Banjou stole the scene by forcefully powering himself up and then beating on Evol like a chump. I distinctly remember feeling myself shake in excitement when he turned into Great Cross-Z the first time, and as someone who loves Magma, watching him just beating on Evol was probably the most hype I got since episode 22. Granted, we don't get to take in this victory for very long since he gets his Black Hole form like thirty seconds later...
