I definitely agree that having Ryou come back this early feels really weird, especially since his disappearance was only hinted at in the previous episode. It absolutely feels like this episode should have happened later after Kagami has been more fully established. That said, I don't care because this episode is fantastic.
Everything with Kagami and his brother is so well done and the final fight in the frozen rain is definitely one of the moments that's always stuck with me about this show. The events may feel narratively too early, but it still gives us some good insights into Kagami. I'm not sure I agree with your read on how Kagami's story went down. I think he knew early on that Ryou was a Worm, he was just trying really hard to convince himself that it wasn't true.
I think this is one of Kagami's best character traits and worst flaws. He's a guy who genuinely tries to believe the best in people. We saw it with Worm Ryou here and it will be a defining aspect of his relationship with Tendou. Kagami can definitely see the flaws in people, but he always has faith that they can rise above them and become better than they appear (or at least that they'll stop charging him for fish).

what is your favorite sibling relationship in the Kamen Rider franchise?
That's pretty easy, it's totally...

Something we'll talk about in an upcoming thread, I suppose.
With that option closed off, I'm really tempted to say Kotaro and Nobuhiko. It loses something because Nobuhiko is kidnapped/gestating for the first half of the series and totally subsumed by evil for the other half, but it's still a relationship that drives the emotional core of Black. We don't get much in the present, but there are always flashbacks set to instrumental Long Long Ago 20th Century.
