Again, watched the OverTime double release, so to review - it was alright. The problem with wiping Geiz and Tsukuyomi's memories is that we get no new insight into their character, and while it's nice to see Geiz'c character development in fast motion, as if to remind everyone that it's not flip-flopping when it fucking makes sense, it's nothing we haven't seen before. The Time Jackers finally get to do something, and it's be disposed of by Schwartz, and you know what? It's fitting they go down so easily. As people in this thread have said, they're useless villains, but, in hindsight? It makes sense. Schwartz is the mastermind behind all this, as much as Hora likes to believe otherwise, and he's not going to give powers to people with more than three brain cells to run together.
That brings us to Kaito. I've seen Decade, I've seen SHT, I've even watched the Diend movie that the Den-O cast were in for some reason. And boy, do I hate his guts. I know it's cliche, wanting Riders to fight for good and all that, but Diend? He's not even an anti-hero, he's just a troll, and his "it's about me" attitude got old back in 2011. So to have it in 2019, especially in a move that gives the bad guy exactly what he wants (Decade's powers, in another question of 'How the hell do Ridewatches work', essay coming soon) is pretty annoying. Is he my least favourite secondary? Yes.
Good stuff is that even with their minds wiped, I do like the characters, so it's still an enjoyable watch, and seeing Hiryu get his ass kicked is satisfying enough, even if he's not quite been enough of a threat compared to Schwartz. Of course, that's the point, but it's still a little off. And Hiryu is a villain who I like for just being so petty, btw. His entire reason for thie arc is 'You took pity on me, stop being so above me, Sougo you ass', which is, if you put it through the usual Another Rider obsessiveness, is understandable. Not, you know, being molested as a child, whoever said that. Seriously, ewww. Also, Another Kuuga showing up just raises further questions about the movie. Shirakura, what a hack.
So yeah, overall, enjoyable, but nothing much of substance. But, looks like we're moving into the endgame. Plus, Aqua's back, so I'm big hype for that.
