You know, that whole scene where Hiiro opens up about his grief over Saki's death, how he blames himself over it, how he thinks he can't be a doctor until he gets her back (though him literally just ignoring the patient seems a bit too 180) is pretty good. It then gets followed up by the incredibly dumb scene where the group just lets him go. Like why, what justifiable reason is there for them to just let him leave like that especially when he had Emu/Kiriya Gamer Driver in hand?

This episodes use of the Game World, a concept that had only been introduced to us back in episode 30, really brings to mind how Ex-Aid doesn't do a great job at explaning the inner workings of its mechanics. Just what exactly is the Game World? Is it where the Bugsters originated from? Why does it contain the data of those infected with the Bugster Virus? Considering how the Stage Select function works, does it have any relation to that?

Seeing Parad and Graphite working together in this episode is pretty cool since we never got to see much of that because of Graphite getting kiiled so early. They are kinda like the Ex-Aid/Brave duo of the Bugsters in a sense.

Using Kiriya as an example of how Masamune is able to bring someone back to life is actually a neat way to both revive him and have Hiiro still work for Masamune.
