Obviously in the larger scheme of the story, the decisions Hiromu makes in this one are not meant to be seen as ideal, but man, as someone who's probably at least as big a fan of Red Buster as Enter is, I gotta tell ya' -- it's real hard to not just unironically love Hiromu going full macho action hero and deciding to settle things with Enter personally? Nick even hits all the classic loyal partner beats to earn the right to tag along, and the end result is like this epic teleporting sword fight that starts plummeting over the side of a building and ends with a desperate life-or-death gamble that puts the resolve and guile of hero and villain alike to the ultimate test?

It's really not healthy! The fact that Hiromu in the climax here would rather burn himself alive than ask somebody to help is not something I should be encouraging, but dude, when it makes for television this entertaining, I just can't find it in me to be too hard on the guy!

More seriously, I mean, of course I do quite like all that "larger scheme" stuff going on here too, and that's even a big reason why this fight sticks with me so much, but just for the spectacle alone, this is an episode I'm fond of.
