Hello
, most ridiculous thing I've maybe ever seen in a Kamen Rider show.
Good source of fiber?

aghast
. Kenzaki is his friend, and he wants him to stick around. Plus, who the hell knows if Tachibana’s even honest, or right? And there’s this
excitement
on Kenzaki’s face, a smile as big and broad as anything. Kotaro
cares
about him. Kotaro’s his
friend.
It’s so pure, that scene. It’s not just a Rider that desperately needs the support of the people in his life, but one who understands how necessary and special that support is. It’s not someone who needs to be convinced that they’re a good person, or that they need people in their life. It’s someone who knows what they want, and appreciates it when it’s given to them. It’s earnest, and adorable, and it made me love this show even more.
This is a scene that, in particular, makes me enjoy going back through these shows in order again. It's a moment that draws a really sharp contrast between our current and previous main Riders. You just know that this is how Keitaro wanted (expected, even?) every conversation with Takumi to turn out.
Blade's not as in-your-face about it as Fourze, but friendship is a major theme of the show and a really important part of Kenzaki's character.
