In fact, the episode was quite good. Very dramatic, even melodramatic in places. Finally, Hikaru was developed, albeit in such a cruel way. But, by the way, Revise was never afraid to kill characters (does this mean that the world will be rewritten again in the finale?). It even played into the hands of Hikaru becoming Rider. After all, he wanted a belt, because he could not do anything without it, but it turns out that even with a belt he is still not able to protect a person dear to him. Cruel.
Of course, Kinoshita is in his repertoire: girls console crying boys. And if this was in the subject with Sakura and Hikaru, then the scene with Hana and Tamaki is clearly superfluous. I still think that Tamaki needs to save the former queen of the deadmen in order to move on in his own way.
Daiji of course quickly switched to active villain. But his motivation... In short, it's Michi from Gaim, if he was really stupid. It is strange that he is so surprised by the reaction of people when he himself is not able to explain why Giff needs to submit. Or rather, it's the show's fault for not showing off a strong enough main antagonist. About Kagero: for some reason it seems to me that his ghost follows Daiji with a constant facepalm. But still, I liked this episode much more than the previous ones and I look forward to continuing.
