So Otoya is definitely one of the most memorable and entertaining characters from the show for a lot of people, myself included, but I would also like to talk about my favorite 86 character, Yuri! Possibly my favorite heroine in KR. I was in a rush with the last post, talking about different perceptions of art and the connection between Wataru and Otoya, so I forgot to mention her.

I like that Yuri is consistently the most competent and least weird character and how she's good in combat even without a Rider System. As a waitress, she acts similar to Hiyori, with how she speaks rudely to Otoya, but she has no problem being polite and formal around most other customers. Even though it's good etiquette to show respect to all customers equally, I can't really blame her for making an exception with Otoya who totally deserves most of the bad stuff that happens to him. It's not like Master cares either, since his tolerance for Otoya is also limited. Yuri's respect is hard to earn, especially by people whose flaws are always in the foreground of their behavior.
