[Spoilers] Toujima Tanzaburou wa Kamen Rider ni Naritai - Episode 12

"This anime will continue broadcasting as a 2-cour anime show with 24 episodes.".
(Yeah baby, I need more than 12 episodes of that good stuff.)

To celebrate the conclusion of the Strongest Decider Tournament, the group gathers at Izakaya Futaba for a belated wrap-up party. During the festivities, Ichiyo once again confesses her feelings to Yuriko, only to be rejected without mercy.

As everyone spends the evening enjoying themselves in their own way, Yukarisu suddenly senses the presence of Shocker combatants, casting an ominous shadow over what was meant to be a carefree night.

Honestly, this episode finally delivered on the "big shift" I was hoping for. For the first eleven episodes, this show felt like a fun but silly parody about middle-aged guys having a mid-life crisis, but Episode 12 completely changed that vibe lol.It’s easily the best episode so far because it stops being a cringe and finally starts being more of a superhero show now lol.
