Hoo boy! Lots to talk about...

Internet's been bad here lately and I've got some work coming up, so I'll speed through this as best I can.

So Hiromi (Rider) kicked the bucket, which is funny since that wasn't a very convincing death scene to start out with. Like everyone else, I do like Hiromi, ever since Episode 1 where he tried to transform himself to fight the Deadmans, to how willing he was to be a hero he was willing to let the brand spanking new belt kill him or be killed in battle to fight against the enemies. That and Demons is just such a cool looking suit.

Speaking of cool looking suits, we got Vail. Absolutely love the militaristic aesthetic tied in with his insect motif. That and he's voiced by Kenjiro Tsuda, what's not to love? Certainly the best villain in this show to me...

Akashic... This guy who just walked in with a big neon sign reading "the villain" who's in charge of FENIX and talks to Gif, even making very suspicious comments at every opportunity. I do want to talk more about him at a later date, but for now, I can say, I don't like him, but I also see some genius in him.

We have the Sakura/Aguilera thing going on, which is nice and all, but we're slowly but surely losing sight about what Revice was set up to be, which I'll talk about more later, but first... Jack Revice. I love this suit, it's nice and simple but has all the charm I love about Revi and Vice (mostly Vice) rolled up in one.

Now again, the plots have this very weird sort of being too short, yet the ends are (mostly) satisfactory, to me at least. And the continuing Ikki vanishing from photos, that I kept being drawn towards over the revelations about Gif (you know, the big statue that everyone wants a piece of?).

Olteca on the other hand, is absolutely my favorite villain of the show, as much as I was saying stuff about Vail, I just really enjoy Olteca being absolute scum. Put another way, Olteca has the charisma and atmosphere of a villain, while Vail is the most thematically appropriate villain to oppose our cast. Sure, I give a lot of credit to Kagerou for making Daichi an interesting character on his own, but then again, I always liked his sense of justice and duty to protecting the world.

Oh yeah, then there's Weekend... Definitely thought they would be our new bad guys given how FENIX seemed just about as obvious as them, and the Deadmans thoroughly lost Big Daddy Gif. And of course, the man in the mask is already giving off villain vibes, but for some reason, I kind of thought more to Mirage (was that her name?) from W.

But anyway, we're now getting into the meat of Revice, and that's going to be something... And meanwhile, I've still not seen the Mystery or Beyond Generations Movie (except that Century is a beautiful suit and Promise is a beautiful song), but at least the little stuff Androzani throws in here have been entertaining, thank you for sharing!
