[Enchilada645]

Alright, so...

Honestly I don't mind Foundation X too much, I definitely forgot they got pushed this early (any episode before the mid-forties is early to me) into W, but overall/later on they do the job they need to and that's fine by me. Also I enjoy Saeko's current sub-plot of being on the run, and considering what's showing up soon, I'm excited to revisit this part of the show and see how it goes.

The Hopper Dopant is such a weird suit. Just when I feel like I figure out the head, it looks in a different direction and I just can't figure it out? Like the head is insanely distracting for me on an already kinda meh color palette.

As for the ending as I feel that's the biggest part aside from revelations I was already aware of because this is a rewatch... I'm kind of mixed on it. Like I knew what was coming but I forgot how we got there. I forgot Ryubei just yeets Wakana somewhere else to talk to her. I feel like we missed a step between that and her last confrontation with Philip at the end of this two-parter though.

That being said I do enjoy the bookend with her saying "behind you" and it coming across in two different tones during both episodes. The phone stuff was also cute and chilling in both instances.

But uh... I don't really get why the killing part was necessary? I legit was shocked by this because I was under the impression that her attacking Philip at the end, from what I remembered, was her trying to capture and bring him back. I feel like that would've been the better scenario to write but that's just me.
