I've really enjoyed both of these episodes with Juuga, for the record. The show spent a ton of time in its back half building up the messy relationship between George and
Daddy
, so while I think the overly simplified "I'm *evil* now!" vibe he was giving off maybe set the wrong tone, I think doing a story this personal and small in scale at the very end made loads of sense for this series.
The entire reason Ikki formally committed to becoming a Kamen Rider in the first place was because he wanted to protect families, whether they were his own or not, so to bring everything back down to that, and have Revice fighting not to save the world, but to save a
relationship
, even if it means Ikki has to give up everything else that matters to him in the process -- I just can't see how that
isn't
part of a fitting, thematically coherent, and dramatically impactful conclusion for Revice? We've still got a couple episodes left, and it's not hard to guess the broad strokes of how they'll go based on the preview we have, but I expect I'll have nice things to say about those episodes as well.
For now though, this one was darn great in my book. A lot of great emotion thanks to stellar direction, and performances that let you feel the growth the actors have had over a year,. Above all else, it also emphasized that even in-universe, Kamen Rider Revice was
always
about family bonds. Can't go wrong with that.
