And I mean Zero-Two's honestly great as far as like Final Forms go since it's one of the like maybe two Final Forms in Rider to have an In-Series record of 0 Losses. Which is impressive when you think about it.

I'm also a fan of Zero Two, which is why I'm disappointed that it only got a few chances to shine. Most of that is you-know-what's fault, but the staff's decision to repurpose Ark One and throw in RealEyezing Hopper as a "new form" just made the problem even worse. The former I could kind of see what they were going for, but I can't defend the latter.

Shining Assault Hopper actually managed to keep up with Thouzer, so I think it performed as expected for a Q1 upgrade. Flying Falcon though, poor guy got "Edisoned" by Jin and when Aruto finally gets it back, Thouzer steals its data. Rarely have I felt so much pity for a form as I have for Flying Falcon.

Zero Two may have a 100% win rate in the show, but like a certain other president once said, 100% isn't good enough. The last time we see Aruto use it is when he gets his a*s kicked by Eden in the movie and when he gets another chance to use it later, nope, it's that damn RealEyezing Hopper again. It just seems like the plot goes out of its way to stop Aruto from using Zero Two.

Hmm, maybe I'll look in to it.
