Turn Up! It's Episode 29!

-Jacaranda looks so pretty in the modern day! I'd totally go to a resturant with that kind of vibe, yknow?

-Kinda bummed Sougo's graduating high school is only mentioned briefly, I would've killed for at least one more school episode from Zi-O. Imagine what kind of lengthy speech Woz would have recited in celebration of his dear overlord's graduation...

-Woz and Geiz are so damn funny together this episode. And after tiptoeing and teasing for so long, we explicitly get their backstory this episode! "He's the overlord's right hand, so naturally we hate him" would've been fine, but the fact that he was a person they trusted who explicitly betrayed them slightly recontextualizes all his interactions with Tsuku/Geiz in a fun way?

-Daiki! They did his breakfast bit again, that's cute. Love the outfit, but the light hair will take some getting used to, I'm not sure if it suits him or not? According to his actor (in this very nice talk w/ him and Masahiro Inoue around this ep's airing), he's been chasing after Tsukasa for the past decade, and I don't know whether to be concerned or amused by that fact!

-Amane.....Cool that there's another Another Rider who's identity is a character we know, but....Let's just say I'm not really fond of the "Find Hajime" plot they gave her?

-Chalice is such a gorgeous suit, glad to see it and Hajime again! Kenzaki looks appropriately scuffed up for a guy who's supposedly been on the run for like, 14 years or so?

It's just a really fun episode of Zi-O! Enjoyed it quite a bit.
Edit: Placing the interview video at the end, formatting doesnt want to work with me today, it seems?
