I'll agree with everyone else about the fast pace. That being said, I'm loving this show so far.

Sento is looking to be one of my favorite protagonists already just because he's not the naive idiot hero we've seen soooo much during the Neo-Heisei era. He's still fairly heroic, but he's also a cocky genius with a bit of snark and he stands out from the likes of Emu, Takeru, Eiji and even Kouta (to an extent).

Yeah, Ryuga is the latest character to join the "Dead Girlfriend Club" but I don't get why it's a problem for so many people. Outside of Ex-Aid, I can't think of a recent Rider show to feature a dead girlfriend (I'll also note that I did not see Wizard or Fourze). That trope was mostly used during the earlier Heisei series, and since this series is meant to pay homage to those, it makes sense. It's like complaining that Western movies always have stoic, gruff, loner protagonists. It kinda comes with the genre.

Night Rogue has such an awesome voice and an awesome design. That is all

The humor is also hitting really hard for me. It's not the annoying type of Ghost humor where people just act silly and make faces in front of the camera for no reason. The humor actually comes from who the characters are, so it feels organic and not forced the way some other shows do it.

So yeah, I'm liking Build. But I also liked Ghost this far into it, so I'm still cautiously optimistic.

EDIT: Oh, and the opening. It's not bad. Kinda reminds me of Ryuki. It's less action-y and more somber.
