Kaito is obsessed with strength and what it means, and has his own deffinition about what strength really is, for better or worse. Micchy is ultimately selfish, but his selfishness is not one-dimensional. His scheming was born from him just wanting to keep things the way they were. He's gone from cunning, to self-absorbed, and it's evolving into a full-on villain with nothing to lose and everything to gain. Sid was slimy, but he was also outright villainous. He, much like Micchy, was selfish in his goals, but unlike Micchy lacked any kind of subtlety, which led to his early demise. And so on, and so on. Maybe because historically Kamen Rider has relentlessly drilled every aspect of the show into the viewer's heads due to it's fixed length and often basic stories, but just becasue Gaim doesn't have every character reiterate their arc each episode to pad out the show as most do to make up for the lack of substance, doesn't make it underdevloped. You can overdo just as much as you can underdo.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Saying we don't know anything about the characters is just factually wrong.
