It's really quite brilliant. His reveal at the end was just perfect, just out of the blue shooting Shiori? Oh yes, just the kind of bad guys I like.

As for Noa I actually prefer his appearance to Nexus Anphans and Junis Blue. I really liked standard Junis but Noa just seems so much more regal than Nexus. The Next was organic, unrefined. Nexus is streamlined but wild and intense. Noa is powerful and again pretty regal looking. In contrast to Zagi whose just a dark inversion of Noa. I find that I like Noa's design even more when paired with Zagi, it really just works. But I'm a sucker for OP good guys too

I too wouldn't have watched the show without LWW. Of course I also wouldn't have forced my way through Tiga if I hadn't seen Nexus. Trust me when I say that Tiga is ridiculously passable and slow. You may get a headache watching that one like I did.

You know, you're right. Usually when we have a consumate schemer or manipulator they are all out in the open. The show never drew attention to Ishibori so him being the grand manipulator was a big twist. Maybe if we had a few more episodes to deal with the fallout I would have been really happy with it.

If it's the episodic nature of the show, that won't bother me. Max is highly episodic, too, and I love the hell out of it.

Yeah, Nexus has a really good helmet design.
