How could she, though? She didn't have the equipment for that. I doubt Shinnosuke without the Drive Driver could've done any better. It'd would've been nice, but as it was happening I really didn't have any idea what else she could've done.
I thought the plan was incredibly gutsy for her, especially considering that just in the previous episode, she was literally frozen by trauma.
I just felt that it came across as pulling the proverbial rug out from under her feet? I agree there wasn't anything much she could have done, but (IMO) it feels self-defeating to have what is supposed to be a major character-establishing moment show that she can't stand on her own and needs another character around her to function (especially when she expressly says "I have to keep going because I'm here to help Drive!")
There's the possibility that Chase doesn't himself know exactly what's going on with him.
Yeah ... I know we're only four episodes in, it's a little early to judge. But from the promotional descriptions of Chase, it made it sound like the question of whether or not he's a real Roidmude was going to be a major part of his character, so seeing him presented as if there's no question of him being anything other than a Roidmude was a little jarring for me. Maybe he's being built up to be fanatical only to discover he's not a Roidmude after all and force him down a new direction, I guess we'll see
