It?s kind of obvious in the finished episode, given that after Giff reacts to her pleas like she made tasteless jokes about his sick wife on stage, all she gets are a few scenes with Tamaki that look like they were added in post-production, and the only acknowledgment she gets from anyone else is Sakura calling her name, which could easily have been for an impromptu mourning session.
I didn't even dislike Aguilera too much at this point, but honestly, for her to get swallowed by Gif would've been preferable. Feels like Revice is always in a "first draft" state and all these changes are just whatever seems intriguing at the time, but don't necessarily leave enough consideration for the show to execute them in a way that makes sense.
The Gif slap is the most emotion I've ever seen from that rock though.

My problem with this is that it's basically Ikki's entire thing with Olteca, like there's nothing else going on between them other than hatred and it makes for a disappointing final confrontation between them, since neither of them are actually saying anything of value.
For comparison:
Takeru and Ikki are both saying similar things, that Adel and Olteca have done unforgivable things. But that's where it ends for Ikki, since he wasn't around to hear the exposition about Olteca's tragic backstory. Takeru's father was murdered by Adel, a fact that Adel exploited to try and make Takeru lose sympathy for him, but even that couldn't stop Takeru from reaching out to him and wanting him to stop suffering. So, it leaves a bad taste to me that Ikki, the Ultimate Busybody, makes an exception for unforgivable people and it leaves Olteca's arc without any closure since he got swallowed by Gif.
There's also Kamen Rider Revice's declaration that, "We're not devils, we're Revice!", which sounds dumb and fallacious. The show spent a lot of time preaching how devils aren't inherently bad and can actually be beneficial for development, only for them to be like, "yeah, we're not really devils, cause we're good guys, haha". Not very convincing at all, especially since Olteca's accusation wasn't even difficult to rebut! Everything Ikki says to Olteca here rings hollow.
Overall, Episode 28 is the first episode where I realized how disappointing this show was getting to watch and the next infamous incident would seal the deal for my decision to take hiatus.
