I think Hyulick is still the guy to stick it to Tytania. I have no doubt that the rivalry between the dukes will be a main plot, but I can't help but think that somewhere, somehow, (maybe next episode) Hyulick takes that step and decides to go into the ring.

I actually like that he's a "normal" guy. The Dukes are interesting in their own way, but they're also so very stiff it's almost like they're robots. They do have a few characteristics that set them apart and give them personality, but it's still hard to relate to them.

Besides, Hyulick and his crew makes me chuckle sometimes.
