Ikki finds that he lacks certain skills required for Kamen Riders, while the Deadmans find a new way to make powerful soldiers.

Huh, you know I gotta say, in terms of like overarching narrative it didn't really hit me till the end of this episode when Ikki gets his full load out. But Episodes 1 through 4 make a real good starting arc for Revice. Like yeah we're in the First Quarter, but we basically spend 4 Episodes with Ikki fully getting into the Rider Groove so to speak.
Also it's so weird that the mom is still in the hospital, like, usually they just brush that off as a quick fix. But it's a nice way to change locations and stuff. |

Sugihara delivers with the action! I also liked the bit where when Ikki transforms, Vice just turns around and sits down, chilling while an emotional moment is going. That's hilarious.
Edit: I don't think Daiji is Evil anymore. Producer comment on today's episode was wondering where Kadota was and the one who stole the Evil equipment used Kadota's card. Ohohohohohooh Last edited by TheRaizin; 09-25-2021 at 07:49 PM.. |

Nothing too special to say about the episode.
On the positive side, that's kinda what I wanted to see when the show was said to be about family. I want to see siblings kinda clash together with their ideas about things. On the negative side. The CGI. plz no. Stop it. I understand the want to be more creative to not be redundant but not at the cost of 2000 Playstation 2 graphics... |

Very standard fare episode. My little gripes are only that the mom and Ayaka got together pretty quick, I was suppose a little bit of berating from Ikki, but ah well.
Some few stands outs. The Bat Vistamp is actually already in George's possession and most likely complete. God, how many belts is he working on? Kadota is strangely missing here, too. That's one evidence for our two suspects for Evil. Daiji, since he knows where the Bat Vistamp is, or Kadota whom is missing and the website has the producer teasing us about it. I kinda hope it's Kadota, since I kinda want a little more build up to Daiji becoming a rider. I like that little part of Vice and Ikki in the dark just talking, with Ikki admitting that Vice may be right. Sweet scene, I wish they'd use Vice like this more in the future. Ikki disappearing from the picture, which is actually extremely odd considering this is mostly a tech-based season. I'd have thought this would be a thing that happens in Saber! But in terms of the meaning of it, I wonder if they're going to pull a Blade out of it. The more Ikki uses Revice/collects Vistamps, the more Vice fuses with him or replaces him. The suited Ikki in the opening may seem so. It'd be a neat spin on the classic Kamen Rider trope. We do know that Vice still has ulterior motives and isn't still completely on board with ikki, considering that last part and him just completing ignoring the part where Revi tries to stop Ayaka and just chill at the back. Edit: I'm liking this family themes going around, as well, actually. Something I forgot as well is the show dives in other aspects of Families. I know it may be a bit tough for their target audience but I wouldn't mind if it tackles stuff like divorce, abuse, and orphaned kids. The show already doing parent neglect gives me a bit of hope.

George really flexing with that collection, huh.
This series has been a pretty strong start and I'm glad to see it continue; not much I can add since my thoughts on the show tackling the idea of imperfect families are pretty consistent with everyone else! |

I liked this episode. Story and character development are on point, and the Ptera Genome Henshin sequence was pretty darn great.
I'm really glad that I can enjoy watching some Kamen Rider again. |

This episode proved that Vice can be used for emotional moments as well. Very nice. Although this may be where I stop watching for a while to recover from toku burnout. Looking solid for a 50th anniversary show so far despite my personal issue with the demon theme.

Man, you do not get a lot of toku shows that feel this... "complete", I guess, this early on. Like, this episode absolutely blew me away with how thoroughly it explored a ton of themes that are clearly going to be central to the show going forward. Revice already knows exactly what it wants to be about, and it's benefitting from that clear vision by giving us some unusually tight storytelling. The development for the guest characters is great; the development for Daiji is great; the development for Ikki is great. The action is Sugihara. (He really loves watching characters fly through CG cities for some reason.)
Revice is setting a very high standard for itself, and I really hope it keeps it up.
