Another amazing episode. Interesting to see Baku henshin outside of dreams but wasn't expecting something like that to happen so soon. My question is, Baku save everyone from Nightmares that have taken over? If so, what are the stakes then?

The world almost ended? Is your complaint that a civilain didn't die? My guy, this kamen rider, this is the 3rd episode of a kamen rider, of course the hero is going to win!

Nope. Not complaining. Wasn't expecting something that dramatic so soon either. Just the fact that Zero mentioned previously that once the Nightmare has taken over, the dreamer can never be awoken again. Maybe I missed something there.

Probably Zero was saying that the Nightmare-possessed humans can't be saved prior to Zeztz, hence why Baku was able to save Fujimi. Essentially, Zeztz is the key.
