Not reading the spoiler, but I'm glad it's not permanent. Nothing against RageoftheDinobots, in fact I quite like him, that's why I'm bummed he's so underdeveleoped.

Also, onto episode 33: Welp, Hana's gone. It really stinks that not only is she now a child and now 50% less awesome (seriously she was like my favourite character) she didn't even get a good sendoff. She was completely absent for the last two eps and had a bit part before that. I heard she left due to illness, so that explains it. Still kind of a bummer.

Onto my next favourite character who's not Moe "Red Guy" Torboat, the explanation behind Yuuto's cards is both kinda cool and... nonsensical. I'm sure it'll be explained, but "Every time he uses one the memory of him dissapears from the minds of people he's met" is really weird and specific. It's almost, I dunno, like it exists as an explanation for Rambo's sister's loss of memory, rather than it being a more reasonable problem unrelated. Like maybe, I dunno, he lost his own memories and her memory loss was just good old mental scarring due to the traumatic way in which he passed away? Or something not so vague and complex. Also, I assume it'll be solved since the next episode on Youtube's thumbnails shows him in Altair form, so it will probably have equally a vague and yet somehow complex explanation. Though I'm glad because he hasn't used Vega form in a while and I like that form.

I don't know about that...a secondary rider's power is typically more limited than the main rider's (though it's usually just they use less of the same gimmick, Accel using one gaia Momory, Meteor only having one switch slot). Don't worry about Ryoutaro. He does get more develpoment in a bit.

Regardless of the reason, it is still lame. I agree with Split, as Hana was one of the only things that I felt was the strong point of the show. Turning her into a child was just dumb. They could have really done something else to account for her not being there. Like maybe write a plot around it that they realize they forgot about someone or something.

Just watched the first two episodes of Ryuki. It looks a little dated, but I kinda dig that early noughties style of filming Japanese series seem to have so its all good. Having only watched Rider shows from Decade-onwards, I can already tell Ryuki has a darker/eerier edge to it. Looking forward to watching more.

Yeah what you said doesn't make sense. It's not his limited power that's nonsense, it's why it's limited. It's convoluted and seems like an afterthought.
