Faiz Episode 31
All praise the Axel Watch!

Nobody gives a shit Keitaro. Just go back to eating and let the others think/eat as well. Okie dokie?

How are the neighbors not complaining about the noise? Oh well, it gave me more Naoya awesomeness. It's shit like this that cements him as my favorite character in the show. Plus is it just me, or was his dancing almost like Bender's from Breakfast Club?

She came to push you so that you could swing.

Kusaka continuing to play the game. You know with all of his lying and manipulation, he'd make a great politician. Or lawyer.

That was quite the nice little scene there between Mari and Takumi. It had some nice emotions, it came off as genuine, the music playing was good and fit. I really dig these emotional scenes, they always remind me that even though it's a show about transforming heroes, Kamen Rider pretty much is a drama series. And sometimes it's really nice to see those parts shine out through the insanity.

Don't you help people already though Keitaro? And how big do you want to be Naoya? Because no matter how big I will always support you!

Sawada you appear to still have human emotions. Maybe you haven't thrown away your humanity completely as you believe you have.

Hey look, it's Saturday Night Fever Orphenoch! He actually has a really bad ass design if you ask me. Plus he has two swords and as per the rules of bad assery, using two sword makes you an instant bad ass.

Wait, so what happened to the other guy? Did Sawada kill him? Did he get away? Does it even really matter? Probably not.

Uh Mari, pretty sure you could still move out of the way. No? Oh, okay.

Well that was 31. Quite the emotional episode it was.

Story wise I thought it actually had a pretty darn nice in story. It didn't really help advance the main story of the series, but for a story built into the episode, it was good. It also provided good character development as far as I'm concerned. Takumi, Sawada, and Mari all got development that was tied right into the story. Gotta love it.

As for action, there wasn't really a whole lot. All of the fights included were pretty average to me. Nothing really stood out or struck me as spectacular.

In total, 31 had good story and character development, but it lacked the action. 2/3rds there isn't that bad though. It was definitely one of the better episodes IMO. Just nowhere near as good as 27.
