Very interesting show so far, I enjoyed watching this episode. Very high stakes and drama already, damn. I'm kind of fascinated by a main Rider who can be a huge douchebag sometimes. I mean they nerfed his attitude a bit in the end by showing his caring side, which they kind of need to do so the kids watching still cheer for him, but I wish they left that side of him a bit more hidden.

Oh well, he's a fox, a trickster, so not just a bad guy. It needs balance.

What I like about this show so far the most is probably that the enemies take a backseat which I think is good. You don't need to introduce the "generals" early on like - I think every Reiwa show so far did? Zero-One had Metsubojinrai.net (at least two of them) in the first episode; Saber the three evil guys whose names I've forgotten, plus Calibur, and Revice had all the Deadmans.

So Geats just says "here's evil dudes just because" and uses that saved time on characters, world building and action instead. I like that.
