But I don't think we were ever supposed care that much, as he was basically just a plot device. Shame really, considering he's a whole new Rider.

So Ryuki just literally turns into his contract monster and gives Decade his Rider Kick? But doesn't Decade get that anyway if he turns into Ryuki? Well that was lame...

Luckily the Trial Battle itself continues to be a deliciously thought out and imaginative set up for fighting. I am really sad it isn't its own show, it could have been really interesting. I'm sad to leave this world, but now we're seeing the effects of the world's combining I'm more than game for Blade World. Another show I didn't care for so I'm excited to see what they do, but considering Tsukasa has already beaten an Ace Undead with Ryuki Powers I dunno how they are gonna have any tension in the next story.

Yusuke and Tsukasa's bromance actually makes me appreciate Tsukasa a lot more as a character than I necessarily did at the beginning. He's a lot more charismatic than the haters lead me to believe, and his wry humour reminds me a lot of Haruto and you all know I love him.

The only downside to the Ryuki world was it needed more Zolda. Kitaoka was an actual lawyer in the series, it'd make sense for his AU version to be around.
