Wait until you start watching the .5 episodes. You probably might not like how the characters are explaining what is going on with in the show since you have already stated watching the episodes.

Done! Just finished Episode #06 now. Watched 3 & 4 this morning. Then 5 & 6 back to back within the last couple of hours. Now to figure out a four character name for my Zi-O adaptation!

I watched episode 6. Conclusion of the Fourze and Faiz arc. Over Quartzer is used as background music during Geiz Faiz Armor vs Another Faiz and Zi-O Fourze Armor vs Another Fourze. Anyway, remember how I pointed out EX-Aid and Ghost lyrics? Well, Rider Wiki has attempted to point some out and EX-Aid and Ghost were overlooked! Not just overlooked, they confused them for Agito and Kuuga respectively. It's like that time they thought Poppy Pipopapo was Genm Level 0.
Swartz's experiment was interesting. The only way to defeat Another Fourze and Faiz was for Zi-O and Geiz to work together and defeat both of them in 2011 and 2003. Maybe there will be other combinations like Kabuto/Drive.
Oddly, so far Geiz has activated more Armor Times than Zi-O. Including Wizard and Genm Armor, it's twofold the Armor Times. Zi-O has Build, EX-Aid and Fourze but Geiz has Ghost, Drive, Build, Faiz, Wizard and Genm! Not that it bothers me since I think Geiz is the better character and I prefer his suit design.
Following the time alteration, Takumi and Kusaka are back to life for the foreseeable future! I thought it was funny how Takumi considered Kusaka his friend although this episode is shared with Fourze after all, so it may have undermined the friendship theme if they didn't acknowledge their strange affiliation based on mutual interest.
Tangentially, I noticed something about Zi-O II and something else that connects this show to the Heisei Phase 2 number pattern. Before I elaborate, I should probably explain to all Final Fantasy outsiders that II is Roman numeral for 2. If you observe closely, you can see that II actually resembles 11.
Furthermore, 11 is a palindrome and also the most common factor of palindromic numbers (excluding 1). Considering the time motif, this could easily reference reverse causality.

I just wish Zi-O would use the other Main Heisei Armors since they're his immediate predecessors.

Sh, they just skipped 10 for the number thing. Build was 11 with the bottles. The clock itself is 12 for the pattern.

^ Um dude, I don't see how Build is 11. There are 10 Full Bottles per panel, 10 Best Matches per state and creation (1) vs destruction (0). Unless you mean 2 Full Bottles in the Build Driver resemble 11?

What Kusaka did during 555's actual season reminds me of someone I used to be friends with who still contacts me via fake accounts to continue his "work".

It's makes more sense than Roman numeral II actually has resemblance to 11

Ok, just looked up the number theory, and toei officially addressed it. It was ended with Ex-Aid. They said Ex-Aid's number was 10 (even though a gashat looks like a nine). So if nine was skipped, and it did continue. The Bottles still make 11 and the watches are 12.

^ I just did the same, looked it up on Rider Wiki. Yeah, I guess either Ghost was the last in the pattern with 8 or they just skipped 9. Reminds me of Windows.

I have a quick question about episode six of Zi-O and it's about the Time Jackers and the Another Faiz interrupting Takumi's debut rider kick. Is Mari even alive at this point or is she now officially dead in this alternate timeline, because if Takumi never performed the Crimson Smash rider kick as Faiz, then she is going to die by being crushed by that giant Orphnoch. And does that also mean that the Takumi and Masato of the present timeline have no memories of them being Kamen Riders at this point?!
I am so confused.

^ I presume the Elephant Orphenoch suddenly vanished just like the Scorpio Horoscope that Fourze was fighting. So Mari is still alive and it's likely that Takumi and Kusaka forgot they were Kamen Riders the moment Another Faiz was destroyed.
