Well that was an interesting episode. Contracting with demons really reminded me of Wizard's contract with WizarDragon, except that in this case Vice can actually talk. He's not as bad as I thought he is, and as much as I hate to admit it I really do like his personality despite the fourth wall breaks (which I'm not too fond of but that's just me). Plenty of potential tensions between him and Ikki which I'm almost certain would be smoothed out gradually via friendship no jutsu (not too familiar with the writer's work) but so far pretty fun. Although if Vice ends up becoming the final boss (highly unlikely) then that's gonna be interesting.
No fart jokes thankfully.
The stamps and contracts are really nice touches. Stamps are used to literally stamp contracts with demons here, and whenever a new demon appears they're accompanied by demonic contracts floating in the air. Meanwhile, when Revi transforms a message board appears, which I recall someone on YouTube commnting that it might be a reference to the LINE messaging app that's huge in Japan, which allow you to send little emote things called (you guessed it) 'stamps'. So the stamp motif works both ways wonderfully.
Unless the next few episodes become really interesting, I might just watch the next two or three episodes before dropping this because as I've said before, toku fatigue; more specifically keeping up with weekly episodes (I'm just here for the henshin jingles and the fact that I love watching debut episodes). However, good start to the show dedicated to the 50th anniversary of Kamen Rider.
EDIT: It's been some time since I saw Amazons but I swear Fenix's airbase uses Nozama Pharmacy's hallway or something? If not, it sure looks similar.
