Oh it's a corpse flower. I missed the chance to see it in bloom once

Ikki swept the leg?! Also, why doesn't he remember that

The neighbor kid has a gun?

The doctor saw. Maybe she's finally going to get her part

Oh, Lovecov;s pocket is usable lol

Loved the expression on George's face as he's entranced by the demon belt

Oh, it's Vice's fault?

Wait are Ikki and Kouji really making up? They're still in the fart reality right?

Is everyone who uses a Vistamp a criminal? He handed the thing over. What else are they going to do?

LOL, Ikki can just draw elemental symbols and it powers up his brother? Dumb

Huh. Is there a difference between kioku and omoide? Don't they both mean memories?

That was a better episode than the previous one, but it still feels a lot like the episode of Wizard where his best friend appears out of nowhere and we learn that he has a soccer past. It just feels like trying to fill in Ikki's personality/background way too late

The memory sacrifice feels pretty derivative too. Zeronos already did that.

lol, I was gonna say:

Toei Exec 1: "Den-O was 15 years ago. children BORN when it was airing are close to aging out of our target demographic. We can reuse Zeronos and no one will complain, right?"

Toei Exec 2: "yeah, sure. I mean, we DID kinda remind everyone about him during those bits in Zi-O where he showed up, but we can just say he transformed a couple more times and we all forgot he exists, right?"

LOL yeah. It's also pretty random? It doesn't seem like Jeanne or Live work that way. And it doesn't seem like the kind of thing Vice would do. He's not a memory gremlin. It just feels crammed in there to add to the drama, which is where my negative reaction is coming from

the Fenix troops that takes Subaru-san, is it the same person that give Ikki the rolling vice stamp?

Except this sounds like the inverse of Zeronos. It's not the world losing memories of Ikki; it's Ikki losing memories of the world. As for why that's being symbolized by Ikki fading out of photographs, well...

Except he sort of is. Remember the flashback to young Ikki making the original contract with Vice. Vice specifically says that the price for his help in protecting the family will be that Ikki will forget some things. Vice may have only intended to keep Ikki from remembering the fire and who he saw cause it. But what's happening now that Ikki is a Rider still primarily focused on protecting his family is a logical, if unintentional, extension of that original deal.

Oh, I thought he suppressed those memories to protect Ikki. So is Vice's powers just to manipulate Ikki's memories, or does he have to take them to render his services?

I think that Vice's original intent was just to suppress young Ikki's memories of the fire, given that it looked like it was his father that caused the whole thing.

But because of the exact wording of that contract ("I can help you protect your family, but in return you'll forget some things.") combined with present Ikki's primary motivation for being a Rider, Ikki's now losing memories with every fight. And it's probably that Vice is suppressing them like he did originally, but he's either not choosing what to suppress, or is trying to suppress other painful memories before he has no option but to suppress good memories.

If you've ever seen the movie The Never Ending Story 2, there's something very similar that happens in that.

I dunno, I wish it were made more explicit in the story itself

Commercials:
Nintendo Switch Sports, finally getting some use out of that leg accelerator that comes with the Switch fit wheel
Feel like the Sentai backpack commercial and t-shirts should have been in the DonBrothers commercial
Sakura's first turn at the photo/illustrations corner. Interesting that each sibling calls it a different thing
