I'm not sure he even does like the drugs? There's not much about Tachibana I'd call "happy" right now, you know? Like, I think part of his arc right now is convincing himself that this is what he's supposed to do, even if it's making him miserable. He's wrapped his self-image so thoroughly in Not A Coward that he's actually suffering more now than when he was a coward.

Beat Lion

An Undead working for Isaka, who possesses powerful punching abilities.

And for the memes, we’ll let’s just say that a character that first appears in this episode is at the centre of a meme not for a specific scene, but for his entire screen time.

Excited to see more of Leangle, if I've cracked your code.

But now he's regurgitating them and leaving them for women to find as a way of connecting with them emotionally, which is much much worse.

Edit: Oh! This was the episode where Kenzaki rescued the high school kid in the storm drain and was all Smiling Mysterious Kamen Rider Urban Legend! I LOVED that scene

They did a hell of a job on Spider Monster's suit. Not to trigger you or anything, but, those grasping legs behind the head, those three light-up eyes... really great suit!

And, yeah, fun scene with Kenzaki getting to be the successful hero. He's so happy to be helping people! And he's the only Kamen Rider on this show who smiles! At least at times besides when he's threatening to kill people or faking his way through an anxiety attack!
