I guess I'll give my thoughts as well. I think Daimonji could be even more of a narcissist than Gai, since he attempts to validate himself to Yua by citing majority opinion, instead of actually making any effort to justify his own. His conversations with her all sound so self-entitled and condescending, treating her like a tool and expecting her to be completely subservient. He's a terrible person with no redeeming qualities and I don't like him at all!
The messages in these V-Cinemas are good, but I think they're a little blunt in their execution. Like Isamu literally declaring he hates "justice", which is in character, but not really the kind of line a role model should have, as it can easily be misunderstood. There was probably a more subtle way to convey something like that, like the spirit of justice is more important than the letter and people have their own ideas of what justice means to them. Yua was right that majority isn't absolute truth, but that was ridiculously easy to prove since there's no ambiguity about Daimonji being a complete a**hole. I like the symbolism here though, which is something that Zero One does with consistent profoundness. When you die honorably in battle, who guides you to Valhalla? A Valkyrie of course! It's very appropriate that Yua shows up just in time to send off Isamu in his last moments, which is depicted with him fading in to light in the credits. Kamen Rider Vulcan wasn't an idealistic hero fighting for love and peace, but he was always authentic and encouraged people to live freely. His death was sad, but it was also very heroic and I think that's exactly what he wanted. I'm proud of him. Lightning Hornet is still Valkyrie's best final form!
