Oh, I also watched Missing Ace, since it premiered right around Episode 31. It was certainly a thing. Themes of moving on, being replaced by the next generation all tried to crop up, only to disappear into a big betrayal apocalypse plot focused on Hajime and Amane. Don't get me wrong, I like Hajime, but would it kill for our Blade movie to be about Blade? Or maybe that's the point - Kenzaki is just such an everyman, that it would miss the point to make a movie be about some big event happening to him. The Ace Riders are pretty big jerks, so that's unfortunate, because they're not played for huge comedy. Idk, Missing Ace was alright, but nothing really stuck out about it. And it's still weird to have a movie set post-finale when we're barely halfway through the show. Like, Ex-Aid got away with it because it aired during the endgame. This is just odd.
