So, all but one of the episodes turned out to be Baku's prophetic dreams. So, essentially, he went back in time. Honestly, I'm of two minds about this scenario. It feels like they could have come up with something more interesting. And the gimmick itself was more suited to Geats, which was lacking time travel, and the concept itself seemed like a late addition. Sure, prophetic dreams are the next logical step after lucid dreams, but it would be much more interesting if the prophecy resembled a puzzle and felt more like a dream. On the other hand, I understand that half the show is over, and now is the time to unravel the plot threads, not tangle them even more. In short, I have the feeling that Takahashi has stepped on the same rake here as with Geats: for the sake of surprise, he sacrificed the flow and potential of the plot.
However, since the status quo remains the same and CODE are the villains, Zero's exile is quite logical. I would criticize Baku for not wanting to listen to his point of view, but, again, it's objectively the most correct decision. Plus, it justifies the lack of motorcycle scenes in the future. Although, it would be funny if now all the other riders and non-riders got motorcycles and circled around Baku the pedestrian.
The scene with the police was strange. Baku comes to them to persuade them to join forces, then changes his mind, but then says things that compel them to join him. It's clear that this is necessary for the inspiring ending of the episode, but it still feels strange. Baku seems to be acting impulsively, but in such a way that it turns out to his advantage.
Ultimately, everyone unites to prevent the future Baku dreamed of. And they'll have to work hard, because CODE has decided to speed things up and has already brought Kureha back into the game. This means the battle with NOX will happen much sooner.
Since the entire episode is dedicated to Baku's acclimatization, it only has one fight. From it, we learn that Catastrom is still in business, because there's nothing better, and Baku needs to break many (and many) things. Including fate itself.
But this led me to another thought. Baku and everyone on his team have extremely personal goals: to save specific people. In Nem's case, even herself. And together with Catastrom, this leads me to believe that ignoring strangers in need from the previous episode is still a pressing issue. So it's entirely possible that, caught up in the confrontation with CODE and Lady, Baku will forget (or won't have time) to save the Nightmare victims we saw. However, for now, this is just my speculation.
Another theory: Nem's joke with the handcuffs. I think the words "Zero became Three" will prove important in the future.
To sum it up, despite all my complaints, the episode was interesting to watch. And I really enjoyed the gathering team at the end. I hope things work out for Zezzz, although I definitely see dark clouds gathering over him. And that applies to both the character and the show.
