It's the BEST BEAT, because Woz goes on forever about the horrible, deadly side effects -- like Geiz cares -- and then wraps up with asking Geiz if defeating Zi-O and saving the future is really worth risking his life.

HIS WHOLE DEAL IS RISKING HIS LIFE TO SAVE THE FUTURE

Sure it's technically part of the ongoing plot, but I feel like Hiryuu's own angst has no room to breathe or be explored a bit more with everything going on.....It's a bit of a letdown for an Another Rider based on the protagonist.

Yeah, he's just a distraction in this episode. There's no pathos to his thwarted attempts at relevance, because the guy he's got a grudge against doesn't even know or care about him. He's like a dumber Inigo Montoya, you know? He's got this weird grudge, he can't stop talking about it, and no one cares.
