[Frontier]

It's nice to see Impact has been upgraded to be able to better fight Nightmares it couldn't handle the first go-around.

I love Nem leaning into the "Tough Girl" act for this persona.

Man, Dawn is making a bad habit of beating Baku so thoroughly until he wakes up.

So Sieg feels some kinship with Nem because of their shared Nightmare aspect? Feel like Sieg mentally broke which drove him to embrace nightmares as the only way to 'save" the world.

The command room has now basically become the dining room. Minami giving Baku a good reality check about how he's not alone and he's got a little sister who still needs him.

So Zero wants the three Riders to fight and tire each other out so CODE can swoop in...but he also has an attachment to Zeztz as a whole, which is why he's restraining himself? But 3 seems like he's planning to disobey him and ropes 5 into CODE: Somnia. If it makes you stronger at the cost of your humanity, does it turn you into a humanoid Nightmare?

I missed 7 being smooth with Nem. Though he's really not 7 anymore...so now he's Zeztz! And he even makes fun of how Odaka had to be so Chuuni in coming up with the "NOX" codename.

Sieg WAS Code 01 and he and the Lady were the pioneers of Dream Learning. Though he was still slightly unhinged and devil-may-care about everything, though what could he possibly have had a thousand-year prison sentence that would lead him to work for CODE to avoid being in prison?

So basically Sieg is what Baku could be like if he let the Catastrophe Nightmare fully fuse into him. Sieg embraced the Punish Nightmare and became a living Nightmare himself.

Kouhai vs Senpai! Zeztz Catastrom vs Dawn! Power-wise they seem about even but Dawn can maneuver and is more agile than Catastrom.

There's absolute victory and then there's draining the upgrade out of the Wolf Nightmare so you can punch him into the moon...and then Rider Kick him in said moon, destroying it AND him. Too bad Zeztz didn't have enough juice left to keep fighting.

Just when it seemed like Odaka was finally going to wake up, having gained newfound respect/appreciation for both Baku and Nem...Sieg grabs him for his underground Nightmare dungeon. Yikes.

Next week: Agent Minami! The return of Kamen Rider Nox! The Cat Nightmare! And Zeztz Orderm!?
