Just finished getting caught up on Zero-One. Started with ep 7 on July 31st, just finished ep 43 tonight. It's a pretty good show! The competition arc sucks massively, and it's a shame that it took so long given them loosing 5 episodes to Covid, but I'm sure if they knew they would only have 45 episodes they wouldn't have spent so long on it. Everything after that arc is great though. The dreams stuff with Fuwa, Yua and Naki is reminiscent of the really good parts of Faiz, and though it's a shame Naki hasn't done much since then, it's still pretty cool we got a first non-binary Rider. The Ark arc has been fantastic as well. Raiden and Naki's morals seem to be weirdly inconsistent, but Horobi and Jin have been extremely well written and acted. The twist of Ark being destroyed before the finale and Aruto becoming the new final boss was crazy. I don't think anything like that's ever happened in the franchise before. And for him to kill a major heroic character like Jin, his friend even, was so messed up. Even worse than Sento killing Aoba back in Build. I'm excited and terrified to see what these last two episodes will be like, because at this point it feels like anything could happen!
