Losing his family at young age, being betrayed by his senpai... also later in Blade so much sad stuff happened... no. Nothing could explain Decade-Kenzaki.
And I don't consider the novel canon anyway. Especially not with the drama CD also suggesting that Kenzaki is not the bitter type of character.

Yup. The two nicest guys in Rider history all of a sudden become huge dicks for no reason.

Well, it's the fault of the writing. They clearly have no idea how the make Decade look good, so they just made everyone else look worse in comparison.

"But Kenzaki didn't eliminate Chalice in Blade"
I didn't say it wasn't out of character. I'm just saying that Kenzaki wasn't bitter when he was portrayed in Decade...

Well, it's a fact that Kenzaki is totally OOC in Decade, no matter if he have that "bitter" aspect or not. I was just saying why the argument of him being "bitter" wouldn't change that, even if it was true.
I mean, Kenzaki would'nt eliminate any other rider, even if it was Decade being... Decade.

That's another thing, too. Even power-level wise, guys like Kuuga, Agito and Kabuto alone all should have kicked Decade's ass.

If they need him to be a weak, frail man hiding behind a tough exterior, he is. If they need him to be a walking god and savior to us all, he is.
He's the epitome of a mary sue, perfect when he needs to be.
