"All aboard! The Mammoth Express will be leaving shortly!"

I'll admit, I was a little skeptical about how they'd handle the Remixes, but seeing as to how they're bringing out one every time he transforms and how they're executed, I love them.

Revice is handling the Legend Rider theme splendidly, which is great for people who weren't pleased, or think it's been too soon since Zi-O, and having them throw in so many references and aesthetics into them is even better. I also love the detail that George modifies the Deadmans' Vistamps by adding Legend Rider details to them.

I think the cast is really doing great here! Ikki and Vice have pretty good dynamic, the latter being the boisterous spice and visual flare for the former, whose able to interact with the world around him, leading them through the conflict. And boy, looks like Sakura's going to be able to hold out on her own here (though I won't get my hopes up, folks), and Daiji's arc is happening sooner than expected. Rider and Sentai really stole this year.

The story is working very well and we now have a glimpse of the next Driver, which I have a feeling might have a different color palette, like white with the FENIX logo or something. Curious on how his Demon Partner's going to be like. And the cliffhanger was pretty good going for the show-don't-tell approach, really setting things up for an interesting dynamic for the weekly villains lineup.

Next Week: "You may choose one for your fair love. Vice or Desast?"

"I choose Desast."
