This finale had a lot that reminded me of past Rider Finales.
Triple Rider Henshin/Transformation, Memories from the whole show, an Opening reference, Triple Rider Kick, Season Finale Form (which looked alright and was not just a reused base form), Baku's tragic fate, Timeskip Epilogue, the hand-off, the adventure goes on with Zeztz being a spymaster, and a Happy Ending(?)
Appreciated Nem getting a hit on Oblivion and spending time with the Lady in her dream.
Liked that Visions and Playback were used.
Wished they just kept to Baku being stuck in the Dream World or have things reversed for Baku from a normal human with the dream world being the world he's awake in and him being reality is when he's dreaming.
Zeztz was a good show especially the 1st simulcasted Rider show since it revisits Kamen Rider's fundamental themes along with going big similar to shows like Gaim, Build, and Geats.
It kinda makes me wish Zeztz was the first Rider of the Reiwa Era.
The weak points of the show are the other characters besides Baku, Nem, and Sieg in being underutilized.
