Joking aside I have to agree. Medusa was a great character then somewhere around the late 30's eps she kinda got boring and one note.

Yeah I dunno what happened, she went from this real badass, oh shit kinda villain to just wandering around going 'hmm' with a slapped arse expression, while occasionally purring and rubbing against Wiseman's legs.

Episodes like these are exactly why I try to stick with things until the end. Had I given up on Wizard weeks ago, I wouldn't have got to see this utterly fantastic episode.

Despite her being possibly the dullest villain ever, that was a brilliant send off for Medusa. Those few scenes really showed how hopelessly devoted she was to Wiseman and how in denial she wanted to be about being used. Its a pity that the character didn't have any room to emote outside of that.

These last few episodes are going to be great. Between Haruto and Nitou starting not to see eye to eye on a few things (I know it'll never amount to much, but I enjoy those little bits of conflict) and Mayu easily becoming the best female Japanese Kamen Rider (in terms of character anyway), its really good to start looking forward to episodes of this show again

So how many episodes do we have left? Three, maybe four at the most? I'm interested to see how the series is going to wrap up. Is three eps enough to satisfy all the plot threads thought?

4, I believe, and yeah. I'm sure that's ample time to tie up all the plot threads, especially if they don't dilly dally.

Betrayal is one nasty business ain't it? Seeing the reactions of the betrayed and the betrayer is always interesting. From the betrayed's "Why????" to the betrayers's "You've served your purpose. Thanks. Bye." It creates great moments like the one in this episode.

So I guess Fueki will now kidnap Todoroki (Damn it I can't remember his name here). And he'll probably brainwash Mayu or something. And what will Gremlin do now? He was the forgotten character this episode but he probably still has some play left in him.

I'm somewhat disappointed that Phoenix hasn't managed to return from the Sun. That would've been kickass.

With only 4 episodes left I doubt that will happen in the series proper. Maybe in the Wizard/Gaim crossover.

You're lying if you didn't see this twist coming. :P

Still, I did really like how it went down. Fueki attacking Medusa as Wiseman and then finishing her off as White Wizard was pretty cool.

I do still wonder about him though. Is Fueki really in complete control as Wiseman? What spawned that form? To be a Wizrad you have to have a Phantom inside you... So is Wiseman the actual Phantom, or a humanoid manifestation of it? The only other examples are all distinct personalities from the person they're inside, so is he actually different?

Also, I wish Mayu had gotten an uniquely colored suit over the generic Mage one... Yuzuru's blue seen in the preview really pops. I'm guessing Masahiro will be the green one we saw in the magazine scans.

I mother fu- Oh... everybody else called it? Well. This is awkward.

Also, as one the same thing that everybody else is saying. Medusa? Damn good actress. Which is only odd, because when she plays her sister? Awful...

Actually? I hated Medusa. Thought she was an absolutely terrible character up until they pulled the twin sister arc. She just sulked in the background with a sultry voice until then. Now her character has a bit more depth and her death was excellent. But Phoenix is still the only Phantom that's really grabbed me at all. I absolutely, and I mean absolutely, can't stand anything about Gremlin.
