Almost none? He legitimately got none. Despite having one of the highest amount of collateral damages for a Rider none of the Rider action or the copious amounts of death impacted him in any way. His passive nature clashed with his show and came across as utterly disgusting. I hate him.

Riders like Haruto prove you don't have to sit on your hands and wait for people to die, so why wasn't a Rider directly linked to his enemy like Godai was out fighting? Instead he made curry and showed off his hideous teeth while literally thousands of people died. Grr he makes my blood boil.

Wow the scenes between Maya and Pryce are legitimately fantastic. It kind of makes me wish JTC was a better realised character so I could appreciate this all more. Either way, when was Maya's actress so good?! I wasn't expecting such a naturalistic feeling reaction from her at all. She's been a bit all over the place lately, but for a show where it has plot literally from the first episode to the last it is nice to have a side character who has always been relevant in one way or another.

Although I kind of like the idea of a motorcycle that is also a dragon, Survive Mode SUCKS. There is no noticeable sense of any kind of real power leap, despite being introduced like it was some huge deal. I wanted to really be into the clash between Adam and Len as the voice acting and dialogue was fantastic but the actual action really left a lot to be desired.

Plus, I have to ask, why is Dragon Knight still Adam? I know Adam is important to the story, I know that the Dragon Knight title of the show is probably more in reference to him than it is Kit and honestly Adam's story is a fantastic one. But even with all this in mind, Kit is the guy we've been following from the very start and for the show to suddenly change who it is following around in the closing moments of the series is just really jarring. Whenever Kit comes back it feels shoehorned and forced, which is a damn shame as I was enjoying his character arc a lot. I guess the reason he and Kase stick like glue now is they both know how it feels to once be important, and have all of their potential utterly wasted.

So that is it then, we're just gonna forgive Adam? Well these episodes running up to this have been a massive waste of time, but is that really a surprise at this point? Dragon Knight is worse than Dino Thunder for setting up something interesting and then taking it nowhere. Oh well, at least we got that sweet homosexual tension between Hunt and Chance.
