Seriously. I think it's really hard to argue there's a better single episode of Build. The impact it left on everyone was just nuts, and what's really crazy to me is that I think we all gathered from the preview and everything beforehand that Sento was going to make someone kick the bucket. The story was shocking and edgy, but instead of being because of a surprise character death, it was more just in how freakin' far they pushed the drama after it happens.

And of course, the direction in both 21 and 22 is just flawless thanks to Kazuya Kamihoriuchi. I think both those episodes show more than anything else he's done just how much attention to detail he brings outside of the action scenes, where other directors would probably put less care in. Every shot feels so carefully considered, and I'm pretty sure the production schedule for a show like Kamen Rider does not give you a lot of time to spend thinking about it.
