Quite "human" for the way Aruto is written.
The guy with the biggest hopes will have the hardest falls. And for a guy to have gone through so much, its really not surprising that he becomes Ark One, especially when his morality pet bites the arrow. One way they might end this series is if he shoulders all that burden and takes Ark out. I'm not betting on it, but it would make an interesting ending to a Rider series. After all we did have Fruit Jesus leave Earth, anything can happen to the main rider really. |

I’m almost thinking Izu will stay dead. Aruto is consumed by grief right now, he doesn’t seem to be fully conscious and Ark/Azu/that key is clearly manipulating him in this weakened state. The only way he can win is by letting go of his malice himself, rather than having the source of that malice be rendered null. He has to forgive Horobi, or at least not hate him, and it needs to be Aruto who does that. I think bringing her back, at least for him, will undercut that.
I wonder if Aruto may even sacrifice himself to destroy Ark. The potential for a meaningful conclusion to this story is there, I just hope they don’t cop out. |

After seeing how he has been having doubts and briefly losing hope in previous episodes I'm not surprised he finally snapped

I assume* we'll get a final showdown between Zero-Two and Ark-One, but the question is, how?
I wouldn't be surprised if that final battle was entirely symbolic and inside Aruto's mind, just the two of them fighting in that "simulation" space as a metaphor for Aruto struggling against Ark's control. *(I could be wrong, but I'll be shocked if that's actually the case.)

If this show ends with Aruto destroying the world as Ark-One I would love it honestly.
Alternatively, Aruto gets killed by the other Riders who then carry on his dream. That would also make for a unique ending. The reality of what will happen though is that his friends will find a way to separate him from Ark-Zero and he transforms into Zero-Two again to finish what's left of the Ark. But I really did not expect this turn at all and I like it. There is no way of bringing her back, they explained way earlier in the show that all HumaGear involved in the Zero-One project (like Soreo, Wazu or Izu) are not connected to the backup function to prevent sensible data being stolen. I know what you mean of course, even with this information they could still easily find a way to bring her back (secret backup or something) but it would be neat if they actually stick to their rules. Personally I expect that Izu will "overwrite" Azu and we'll have a scene where she dramatically cuts her hair or something. |

What if Aruto becomes the big bad for the whole Reiwa first decade?
Here he is, a man who was so optimistic, so full of life, devastated when a father of dedication murder a child of hope, turns into a depressing husk of humanity and used by the eve of evil as the vessel of Devil. And he ended up destroying all he cared for. And it takes ten generations of heroes to take him down. And a man who walks through worlds. Destroyer meets Destroyer, who shall win? (and Ohma-Zio just sit still on his throne, because he knows exactly how this plays out and feeds into his rise of power) |

Well, It can still be possible if TOEI is pushing it.
But nevermind, let's see how Aruto pulls himself out of this funk |

I wouldn't really like that, anyway. I think for one season it could potentially be a cool idea, to have the main Rider having to take down last season's; but after the second year you'd be kinda sick of it, never mind 10. One of the great things about Rider to begin with is how most seasons are standalone stories that are all allowed to do their own thing and be wildly different from the last, and having the objective of each be having to deal with some edgy Evol Black Hole wannabe would quickly diminish that. Aruto's angst over his dead secretary is not capable of carrying a story for long.
Besides... honestly, I'm a bit sick of Zero-One and wanna quickly move on. This past stretch of episodes has been dire and I'm ready for something new.
