Does any one else feel Thunder Gale is kind of treading old water? This is like the third time Ikki and Vice have had to accept they are one. Honestly I liked it when it was theorized Vice was the embodiment of Ikki's resentment towards his family after giving up his dream of being a soccer player. Now that it's been revealed Vice has been around Ikki since childhood, it makes a lot of earlier moments of Vice's antagonism feel really out of place.

As for Thunder Gale, on top of not being good to look at, it doesn't really even feel like an upgrade. Unlike other upgrades, there is no connectivity between the Rolling Vistamp and Thunder Gale Vistamp. Maybe it's supposed to be like like a Zi-O Trinity situation, where it's an another Super Form. At the very least if past forms are anything to go by we won't have to see this form for much longer before it's replaced.
