I think I like the name Skearhead better than Darkhead, but I like the cape he gained and the speckly animated skin. Transportation powers always make for fun fights (and always seemingly tend to be used by villains in anime, I guess due to the easy thematic extension to duplicity?). Seems like the enemy strongholds are always in dark blues and purples in this franchise. Turning Sora's ideals of hero and strength against her is pretty nice for a ending sorta-conflict (and I like her design with the black wings). Sora blended for with Darkhead made for some pretty awesome animation (and Darkhead getting more angry and flustered let his VA act with less of a subdued tone), especially that giant flaming fist sorta attack (which incidentally sorta reminds me of Symphogear but only kinda). Kinda wish dark-themed Sora lasted a bit longer and got to wreak more havoc but oh well.
