Y'know, you probably should have started watching a couple episodes back, because I think just about every major character has had development, and all the annoying side characters have lost their annoyingness. Sure we got a new annoying character, but he's antagonistic and is victim to a surprisingly funny joke this episode. Funny for me at least. |

Strong contender for a place among my least favorite Rider-shows that is. The episodes have gotten a lot better recently, but then there's still stuff like Drive flying around his Tridorion with the silly go-karts and battles giant Viral-Cores in a bad CGI-deathmatch and the same old morals and boring cases. They try to tie it all up with 001 and Shinnosuke's dad, but it all seems so forced to me. Same with Gou, I don't see how being the puppet for Brain adds anything for his character after he just got a good start with revealing his motives.
I actually liked Drive a lot more when it was silly but had interesting cases. I feel like that's the problem: They tightened up the plot so fast instead of having a smooth curve and now I don't even bother anymore. I liked the charm of the show at the beginning, then it got boring and silly, now it's starting to get interesting but I'm still stuck. If they do have a nice conclusion it could help me like this show as a whole, but if the end is as weak as I expect it to be I'll file this case under “Mixed Bag”. |

Chase is still the best part of the show.

Yeah, that's no doubt. Chase is the best part of this series, and the ending part of this episode highlighted a very simple thing: He's getting character development!

I really hope they go about taking down 001 smoothly and not repeat what happened with brain cause if Shinnosuke gets caught attacking the minister being kicked from the cops will be the lest of his worries

Not only 001 is happens to be Freeze Roidmude but he have ability to alter people's memory or I like to called "Iceflake" 001 already got Gou and now Shinnosuke but the only way for Shinnosuke to get his memory back is FINAL FORM! I predict that 001 won't be destroyed since he is leader of Roidmudes but who knows |

Chase lying about Gou is a bit disappointing, it feels it's only to drag the plot around . Well, it's nice to see him more human as time goes though.

After reading this thread, I was actually excited to check this episode out. Unfortunately, I don't get the praise. They're still dragging some things out and while an honest to god plot has actually developed lately, I don't find it very captivating. Also, while I'm happy that Chase is finally on the right team now, I think I liked him better (or at least found him more interesting) the first time he was coming around and more of an anti-hero + the suit was waaaay cooler than the spaceman spiff thing he's wearing now. Kind of wish he'd gone back to the proto-drive suit. In fact, all of the original suit designs: Drive/Proto Drive, Mach, Machine Chaser were so much better designs than any of the so-called "upgrades" we've gotten. Just so many things that bother me with this series and most of the good, like the Chief actually being a decent character have come too late in the game. I hate to say it, at this point I'm only watching it because it's what's on.
