I think peace and happiness are slightly different. You could say Neon was peaceful when she lost her Kirakira and started obeying Irumi, but she wasn't happy, as she later told Kyuun to let her remember everything if it happened again. Like, what does peace mean for someone like Beroba, who can only be happy if others are suffering? Peace opposes sadism, yet sadism is necessary for happiness, as part of human nature. Ace is simply trying to keep the world safe from Jyamatos so people can find their own happiness and he's only using his own Kirakira for power. This would satisfy Michinaga, but it's probably not enough for Keiwa, who demands justice for the dead, something that would require a lot more Kirakira.

The DX Monster Raise Buckle was paired with Punkjack's Core ID. If you think screen time means anything, then remember that a Tertiary Rider like Espada was absent for over 20 episodes.

There's a rumor that Neon is going to get a new Core ID, which makes me wonder if Na-Go's Core ID is permadead, like the Holy Wing Vistamp. I guess Hakubi won't be coming back anytime soon, but good to see that Sara is continuing to give support for Neon's happiness, now that disappearing is no longer an option. She still has an important role as the heart and being a Rider or not doesn't change that.

If anything happens to Sara, I definitely won't forgive Kekera.

I didn't even recognize Daichi at first without his glasses. Based on the weird veins across his face, looks like he might be going through Jyamafication, so maybe that comes with improved vision. Or he switched to contacts.
