So you did have that consideration... yeah that plot is used to ascend Toujou...and also probably a plot point where Toujou ruins everything, himself and others by that. There's still his notes though. I wonder what your opinion would be if that plot continues, but Toujou probably wouldn't be in spotlight.

Oh so you meant for a moment 1 episode earlier... because Shinji only recently know right there, that would solve the mystery only 1 episode earlier, I think which isn't that much faster? Here she practically has a remark exactly the same as what you think Shinji should tell (I guess the only knowledge he got was that she's connected to Mirror World?) Otherwise...blame Inoue for this. Shinji didn't tell ORE Journal about the Mirror stuff either with them in ruins and scattered around!

Ren is someone who has encountered Odin longer than others and also knowing more of its nature like it will always exist in Rider War, controlled personally by Shiro, etc.... I guess that's where he got it. Just my thoughts; Ren just knows the fact that Shiro also participates too in the war himself as Odin, where Riders fight to gain a wish, and Ren deduces that it's to save her. FYI; saving Yui is related to that exact wish. Shinji was right. Everyone was just manipulated by Shiro. He creates a game where 13 people fight to the death as Riders where last man standing gets a wish. Unbeknowist to them, one of the 13 Riders is Shiro himself (though he uses puppets as Odin to physically fight), intending to win his own game himself with his OP Rider and take the wish himself to save Yui.

Not refering specifically to you but just internet environment in general. I did change my mind regarding explanations sometimes like here too. But one thing for sure, I must explain if others got something wrong due to a wrong take like the wish part above, for that's not opinion, but a fact (fact about how a system works in a fantasy series).
