Okay, I usually don't comment on episodes because as a whole I think Revice has been pretty good aside from minor nitpicks, but this episode really bothered me. Making Subaru the demon creator is good in theory. But in execution, it's idiotic.

So, he summoned a demon, monsters that are very well known threats and could definitely hurt innocent civilians, all so he could get Ikki and Koji to make up. As opposed to, I don't know, just sitting Ikki down and telling him what he did since he clearly didn't remember. I know the monster only seemed to focus on attacking Ikki, but considering it also attacked Subaru himself, I'm not sure he was even in control of it. And he did it so Koji could get a voice acting job, when he probably could have just called in sick or something.

And we finally get an explanation for him disappearing from photos, and it really should have been foreshadowed more. As far as we know, Ikki hasn't had any memory problems all season long. He has only forgotten two things, but both things were memories Ikki wanted to forget. Now we're being told if Ikki uses more power he will forget more memories, but again, we haven't seen any evidence of that.

I have really liked Revice, but I'm afraid it is dropping the ball hard.
