Yaiba absolutely killed it (literally) in her debut as Valkyrie, and for female Riders in general, where even after a certain other female Rider's debut, I'm still thinking on which one I like better.

Now, I'll talk more about the theme going with the Humagears in a later episode (there's one in particular I really like), but it's pretty clever how they set up the weekly dynamic of Metsubojinrai.Net hacking them into the monsters of the week (look at those transformations, pure robot horror), and just how the designs somewhat blend a streamlined, linear robotic look, with a warped bestial form consuming them.

RealXEyes, I'll admit, out of the three Reiwa openings, I feel like they got better onwards (even though I'm still at odds with myself on which one I like better). Nothing against RealXEyes, the lyrics are clever (I'm not going to go nuts thinking there's references to past Riders, but I did put together some connections), Zero-One's name is part of the opening, something we haven't gotten since Drive, and the visuals are excellent. I'm just not too into the song, but it's not bad, it is good, but not my favorite from Reiwa.
