[Switchblade]

Wow, that was some Agito-tier brutality in Sid's death. It's been a long damn time since Rider has been this gruesome.

Welcome back, horrible deaths. I've missed you, buddy.

Good episode. I really think we're starting to see some of the characters move into the final phases of their development with stuff like Kaito coming to realize that he needs to work with Kouta. There are still some wild cards, though, that still could end up on either side of this fight (I'm mostly thinking Yoko here - she seemed to show some hesitation at sending wave after wave of Kurokages to their deaths; is it possible she may betray Ryouma?).

Anyway, next week looks awesome with Marika, Bravo, Baron, Gridon, and Knuckle all teaming up together. Not liking the looks of Kiwami Arms, though. I'd hoped it would continue the aesthetic direction of Orange and Kachidoki, not Rainbow Sherbet.
