Let's Watch Kamen Rider Ryuki 41-45!
Who will the "core 4" encounter next? Will Yui come closer to finding out what she really is? What is afflicting Kitaoka, and is Goro-chan truly his best bodyguard? Who will Asakura kill next? What about the Alternatives, will they really find a way to seal the Mirror World?
How will Shimada react when she meets a clumsy rival? Will Ore Journal ever be the same? DISCUSS! |
And after these 5 episodes Tiger is officially my least favorite Rider out of the entire series.

I gotta be honest. I.... I actually like.... Gai better than Tiger. I mean I ABSOLUTELY hated Gai but Tiger actually succeeded in making me hate him even more. I also hate that he got a damn heroic death. He didn't deserve that. His twisted logic always messed with my head and made me hate him. Although I really appreciated him killing Imperer. He was a bitch.
|
I do like his design though...

Oh Tiger's death was one of my least favorite parts of his entire story arc. He really didn't deserve an honorable death; it's just too twisted to justify his actions by actually making him a hero.
|
I hate that he got to do some good while dying. But man oh man did I love that he died.
|
Oh, since the Let's Watch for Ryuki are coming close to the end, I guess I'll ask this question. Will there be Let's Watch for Episode Final and 13 Riders?

In 41-45 I loved seeing Magna Giga finally do some damage against not only Asakura but Toujo. It was also great to see Asakura kick the crap out of Toujo. Both were bad guys but still, it was like karma coming to Toujo. I'm surprised Goro didn't end up hooking up with Megumi too. That one episode where they seemed evenly match alluded to them falling for each other. |
I was sad to see Tiger die, but new it was coming. I kept holding my breath worried each time he showed up could be his last, but glad he made it as far as he did. I liked that he was able to go out that way, and actually made me a bit teary on seeing how it played out. Pretty much became one of my favorite Rider characters after his story ended. Next is that damn ending.

In a lot of ways I think Toujo is probably the most tragic character in Ryuki and certainly the most psychologically fascinating. He means well, he just has such a totally wrong outlook on the world that he just keeps doing bad things that he thinks are for the greater good. |

Toujo is tragic in that he has no true concept of what being a rider in the Ryuki-verse means. Nor does he understand what real ethics and heroism are. He may think that he means well but he has such a disconnect with reality and other humans that his credibility as a 'hero' is destroyed. I understand the irony of his death, that he finally performed his first heroic act, in the process of dying. But it doesn't change my view that he was horrible. The most tragic character is really Shinji in my opinion. But I'll save that for nexts weeks discussion since it involves spoilers from the final episodes. |
My favorite thing about Episode Final is that it gave us Ryuga, but I'll get more into that when the time is right.

At some point he stopped trying to do everything right and wanted to just do whatever it took to be a hero. I saw his death as a karmic death; he spent a few episodes taking lives to be a hero, and ironically it was giving his own life that ended up being the most heroic action of all. I didn't see it as redemption for him so much as it teaching him a lesson. Also with the karma, I saw it as punishment as well, like "oh now you're a hero but...you're also...DEAD". |
