Also, what the heck was with the sudden jump in episode 28? For those of you who have seen Kabuto I'm talking about the sudden jump to Kabuto and Gattack fighting Kabuto Hyper form? No introduction, no lead up just BAM. I'm assuming it's a Worm due to the preview at the end of episode 30 but I wasn't prepared for that sudden jump! It was a bit jarring to be honest.

I actually find those 2 episodes to be some of the worst "comedic" fillers in any Kamen Rider series. They were absolutely awful.

However in regards to the spoilered question here's an answer As I recall he's the Kabuto from the future. He begins appearing very briefly in a few episodes, has that one fight with them, and saves Hiyori one time before never really showing up again. It's assumed that the Hyper Kabuto from the future could be the one from the God Speed Love film. Then Tendou gets his Hyper Zecter (with it's own time-travel shenanigans).

I have to rewatch Kabuto, because I can't think of what you're talking about when it comes to comedic episodes (Though I generally tend to forget about them pretty much immediately after I finish watching them :lol)

Ah gotcha. Oh boy...time travel. I hope they do it right...I love Den-O but the time travel aspect created some fairly big plot holes. Hopefully Kabuto won't (not holding my breath). Althought Den-O is still one of my favorite series regardless of the plot holes so maybe Kabuto will be alright.

...Yes. That's what's going through my head thanks to this conversation :lol

Those iron chef episodes were so damn godawful that it hurt. I thought I was watching a parody of Kabuto. Completely tonally different from the rest of the series. And like Switchblade said that series has more plot holes than swiss cheese. When you get to the end you're going to have just as many questions as you do answers. Kabuto handled time-travel, just not very well.
