So... the Yomutsuheareyoukiddingme Lock was the prototype of prototypes. Kinda makes me wonder how a Zangetsu Yomi would look... Still, Ryoma having it seems like something of an asspull considering it harnesses OVERLORD weapons, and he didn't even know about them until after the initial Driver testing... Ah well.

Unless we get some extra context in the next few episodes, which I really hope we do.

I teared up when he broke out the Yomu- you know what, Raisin Lockseed. I ain't typing all that out. I teared up when he broke out the Raisin lockseed. He's so completely broken and beyond hope, he's lost everything he ever considered living for- his friends, Mai, Takatora- he has absolutely nothing left to do but die and take as much with him as he can, which is an interesting parallel to Kaito. I wouldn't be surprised if his last words are him both damning Kouta and begging his- and everyone's- forgiveness.

I have to hand it to Gen and the rest of the staff for creating such a compellingly tragic character.

Just as importantly, we finally have context for Blonde Mai:

a projection of the golden fruit itself.

It's so goddamn obvious I feel like an idiot for not seeing it sooner.
