EPISODE REVIEWS

Honestly, the ending and the twist of it all feels rather cheap. I feel like we should have just stayed on track with the premise of the bomb and all of that, but we simply couldn't do that because we needed another layer of complexity and craziness. Even without that, though, I felt like there were a couple of filler sequences which just dragged the runtime of the episode out and made the overall vibe drag slightly; we did, in fact, not need Kyo and Kai debating a book for two minutes in the middle of them tracking down the bomb and defeating enemies. Momo was annoying as ever and, while we got a little about Shura and Futaba's history, that really wasn't enough to make me like or care about Shura. Ryu, however, has really sweet moments this whole episode and they did a good job at making his level of protectiveness cute rather than borderline obsessive (take notes, Kyo). All in all, there's been worse episodes this season, but at least the ending leaves us with a plot point that might actually be halfway interesting if handled well.

Getting the family expelled after everything they've done for the association feels like a cheap way to raise tension. Kyoichiro shouting at Izumo was the only part I actually felt something about

Momo's apology video is the funniest thing this show has done all season. No ukulele. No sigh. Just grand threats wrapped in a polite bow. Top tier troll villain
