He didnt chose to do anything. He used the fruit to have his species evolve like you are supposed to do with it (something Kouta refused to do later on) and that resulted in their society falling apart and beings like Redyue killing those she saw weaker than herself.

The Fruit gives you the power to spark evolution and control the forces of Helheim. It doesnt let you rewrite history at your will or bring people back from the dead. That was made clear at multiple points in the show.

Hmm...which KR should I watch next...? Kiva, Wizard, or Den-O?

Also, anyone know where I can find all the Kuuga eps subbed and for direct download (non-torrents)? TVN doesn't seem to have all of them...

Out of those three, I'd go with Den-O.

Den-O. All the way.
But if you do finish Den-O, I'd recommend Ryuki.

Already watched Ryuki, and LOVED it. The versatility of that show was incredible. From its' complex characters to the amazing arcs was phenomenal.

Omg...THIS! I haven't been able to finish Faiz because of the magnitude of betrayal this guy exhibits/exudes, good lawd...

MCS is the only group with complete Kuuga subs. No idea where to get them via DDL, though. Maybe check krdl.info?

Also, I'd go with Den-O out of those three. Never Kiva.

Kiva!

Maybe I'm just more tolerant than some, but while there are some series I dislike as a whole, I don't think any of the Heisei Rider shows aren't worth seeing through to the end. I found every single one enjoyable in its own way.

Den-O
