[Switchblade]

Okay, so having Geed back is fun. I really liked that show (that I still haven't finished watching) and it's cool seeing him again. It does feel a little weird having it just be Riku, though, considering how much his supporting cast was a part of the story. The Pega cameo was nice, but I'm really feeling Laiha's absence. With that said, I really like how much of a dork Z is around Geed. It really brings out the whole "Zero's annoying tagalong kid brother*" vibe of Z that I picked up on from the early episodes. The double transformation scene, however, brought back some painful memories from R/B - there needs to come a point where you start streamlining these things, Tsubaraya.

Also, kind of annoyed that we're apparently doing Belial again. I know Ultraman as a franchise loves to bring back old monsters and aliens, but it feels like we just keep going back to the Belial well over and over and over again.

*Yes, I know he's not Zero's brother.
