Haven't been talking much on Decker here, generally just been really enjoying the show, but wow, this latest episode really feels like something straight out of the Showa era. How it deals with a subset of the cast discovering a strange and eclectic mystery, just the overall way it was paced and directed.

Something I really have to give credit for Decker is how well it's been balancing between its episodic and serial plots. It's something I think the New Gen shows have somewhat struggle with, partly due to their lower episode count, but Decker has been doing a really great job at it. What helps is that the episodic plots, while disconnected from each other, all still contribute to the shows overall messages and themes. Like just in this ep, we're still commenting on the effect of the Spheres and how their actions have shaped both the world and the characters.
