Rui's suit is pretty rad as it exemplifies his strengths: because he is the internet, he can be everywhere at once.

And it's a very action packed opening, but the show is still playing to some of its original themes: understanding, dialogue, and an unyielding hope in the best of human nature. Suzuki's not a mindless thug, as a medical student, he should exemplify the most enlightened of modern society.

While his defeat should be different from what happened to the neo-hundred leader of S1, it should occur along similar lines.
