Was a really solid episode. Good action, loved seeing what must be 2/3 of Saber's next form or notable upgrade and I really like the distinct fighting styles of each of the riders. There were some great character moments too, especially between Kento and Touma. I really liked where Touma realized that Kento will open up to him when the time is right and he wasn't going to push him on it anymore. Also got a bit more building towards a general plot direction or hinting towards more of where things are going.

Show's definitely improving. Last week's episode was pretty good and this time felt properly paced. I like how the show isn't wasting any time establishing character relationships and motivations. Espada is proper cool, Blades seems to have some backstory with a Megido general and we learn about Calibur and his true identity. Even Buster's role in the series is starting to become clearer. And though we have 6 Riders with Kenzan entering the fray next week - plus a whole lot of form changes - I'm actually impressed that the show is balancing all of these things rather well. Rough start, but it's growing on me.
Fun thing to note is that when the show was first teased, they had this chromatic aberration effect going on along with the bubbles, but when the show aired its first episode they had ditched the former and kept the latter. Now it seems they pulled the Uno reverse card by ditching the bubbles and bringing back the chromatic aberration for the Wonder World scenes. |

I would prefer the bubbles over the chroma effect, but I get that the latter is a lot more convenient to do than the latter. Ideally for me, they'd just not bother! If the show just tells me they are in a wonder world, I will take their word for it.

I'd rather have that chroma effect than bubbles, because If there was a serious or dramatic moment, wouldn't having bubbles in the scene ruin the mood a bit.

Gonna just say this show already feels like it has a stronger cast than Ghost. I'm liking all the Riders so far, which is a good sign.

I hate to say it but this show is taking a bit of time to really get excited about for me, not to giving up levels because I rarely do that but it just seems a bit average is all. I know people probably hate that female lead but I actually don't mind her! My only criticism is how she seems to hang on the main guy's every word, I mean she is coming after Yua Yaiba so I suppose that's understandable.

I just realized how neat it is that Ogami, the character who comforted Kento about his treacherous father, is a father himself. If Hayato/Calibur doesn't get a redemption arc, I wouldn't be surprised if Ogami becomes like a new father figure to Kento.
And I'm glad that the writers just openly told us now that Hayato is Kento's father, instead of doing that annoying thing some shows do where even though something isn't a secret to the characters they still avoid saying it to keep it secret to the audience.
