[Dark Mercury]

^That scene surprised me, too! Though I have to admit I already like Himuro. Not only is he an obvious villain, but when he's not going after our heroes, he's making women uncomfortable just to be an ass.

I really should have looked up the cast for this series.

Haha, same here. (And I didn't recognize Ryuuga's actor either, despite really liking him in Amazons.) Yukari's haircut here is horrible distracting, though, so let's not blame ourselves!

As a fan of early Heisei shows, I'm cautiously optimistic. I only know the writer from the Crows Zero movies, which I remember enjoying, but I don't really need to let myself get too hyped here. (Wizard traumatized me, too.)

I see what you mean, but that ending actually got me excited for the next episode even without a cliffhanger. Sento and Ryuuga are on the run from the authorities, plus they're already starting to develop a fun bromance. I love that the main characters are proper vigilantes! Someone also mentioned in another thread that Build's personality gives off Spider-Man vibes - it would be great to see him quip at the bad guys while the media brands him a dangerous menace.
