And even if they are dosen't that ties backt o idea of Kamen Rider in the first place being born from evil but trying to do good.

I mean, it doesn't really? It's the show explicitly stating that every time a Rider gains power, they're creating and sustaining evil. That's, like, the opposite of the central theme of Kamen Riders?

This was from the dude who brought us Gorider, right? So it makes sense that he'd nail the voice and tone of Ex-Aid.

Man, I really like Woz'z opening recap, and him skipping ahead a little bit into the upcoming episode. The first time he did it, I totally fell for it. I was super confused, thinking I'd completely forgotten the end of the previous episode. (It's not impossible! My memory is real bad!) It's a good gag.

It's okay! Despite this being a real important story for me -- the good introduction to Kamen Rider Zi-O -- I can see how it might not stick in the memories of most viewers. It's not a huge story, or particularly clever in its plotting. But I love Ex-Aid, and I loved how this story defined its recurring cast. Hopefully I'll remember it!
