[Kamen Rider Die]

I don't want this to be all Kamen Rider Die Hates Jean, so lemme try and think of something relevant to say about these Kuuga episodes.

The dog, thing... it's maybe too dark? I don't know what animal culture is like in Japan, but in America, you could launch an incredibly violent series of action movies on a gang of Russian mobsters killing a dog and the swift, terrible vengeance that's wrought against them, their associates, their family members, and anyone who gets in the way of that vengeance. Mikado was a cop and a dog, and it's insane that the entire citizenry of Japan didn't rise up and defeat the Grongi in a weekend. It's easily the most unrealistic thing in Kamen Rider Kuuga, and I'm counting the fact that Pole Pole somehow stays in business.

Okay, there, non-Jean content, now let's get down to business:

Could Yuusuke get into a fight in a kitchen and grab a nearby rolling pin by one end? Would a rolled up newspaper do in a pinch? Or would that one be more for the Dragon Rod?

Maybe Kuuga can pick Jean up by the ankles and drive him through a monster, making everyone happy!

I kid.

The monster would be 100% more Jean, and that's got to be worse than be exploded by a Kamen Rider. No monster deserves that.
