Kamen Rider Ryuki is starting to sound a lot like Puella Magi Madoka Magica, a dark and unintentionally subversive take on the magical girl genre in anime. What with all this talk about contracts, battling in pocket dimensions and characters dying if they don't fight and being killed by the very thing that gave them their powers... funny world isn't it?

Yep. He genuinely wants to stop the fighting.

EDIT: Apparently he's a fan of the show, so that probably explains it.

Ugh, this show just got really retarded. Gai's the new editor-in-chief, and is sitting RIGHT THERE and Ryuki doesn't just, I dunno, take the card back?
This is so, so dumb. He lost a fucking square of paper and the guy who took it is right there and he doesn't just take it back? Am I watching Yu-Gi-Oh? Can someone tell me when he gets the card back so I can fastforward? Also, Ren says he can't transform into Ryuki. Uh, bullshit he can't. He was in his blank form after losing the card, and he could transform before he met Dragredder. He just has no special powers. I just realised something... why are the riders fighting? There's no real explanation for why they fight eachother. This show builds up this grand idea of rider infighting, but neglects to give a solid reason.

Decade episode 10: 'Sup DiEnd? It was ok. That tennis scene was weird. I figured that kid was Faiz. Kaito was interesting. I have a feeling that there's a glaring flaw I'm missing. Isn't there, Matrix?

And they explain why, but it's a bit later (I think Odin's reveal comes with the explanation of why the Riders are fighting, but it could be before that).

Ryuki got his card back, but that episode really hurt the show for me in how contrived and moronic it was. I still don't understand how taking the card works, since the card is part of his Advent deck. The deck and cards are one and change togther when a contract is formed. I say that shouldn't work, but since they never bothered to explain how the decks work... (again, why the hell does no rider series explain the powers?) I dunno, I'll keep watching, but I'm no longer gung-ho for this series. Which sucks because Raia is really interesting, but he's practically a non-character. There's serious mismanaging of assets here. Gai, this stupid looking stupid character gets the spotlight over the only other non-combative rider. In fact, Raia and Ryuki have barely spoken to eachother, despite the fact that the two should be going nuts for finding another rider who wants to end the fighting. |

Man, it's hard to talk about this series without blatantly spoiling it

Tell me about it. Trying to explain how awesome it is winds up being pretty difficult when almost anything is a major spoiler
