[Switchblade]

After how goofy 27 was, I'm really impressed that 28 was able to take that set-up and skew it into something much more dramatic. The Gon stuff continued to be really strong, though, and I am all about the moment at the end where Daisuke puts the beanie back on her.

I liked the extensive use of Masked Forms in the big Rider brawl, too. Those forms are the kind of things that later Rider shows would eventually phase out - like what happened with the Level 1 forms in Ex-Aid - so it's cool to see them still getting extensive use here as we're getting into the show's second half.

The big thing about this episode, though, is that now that we're through 28 that means that we're going into 29 next. Episodes 29 and 30 are some of the most memorable episodes of the entire series. I hope you have a bell pepper and a copy of the Backdraft soundtrack, because the heat will be on!
