Let's go! Kakugo! Episo-o-ode 13!

-Opening gag so good. Love these kids so much.

-Another Ghost! Looks real cool! Interesting dilemma to handle the fact that they already have the Ghost Ridewatch! As you said, a bit of a shame they're playing it straight in how the MOTW reflects the Legend Rider's season, I can let it slide this time. That is of course, because something far more interesting is here...

-Tsukasa!! Wouldn't be Decade if he didn't insert himself into someone's story uninvinted, but it seems he's recieved a formal invination from the Time Jackers (and Woz) this time? And of course he accepts. If you asked me if pick out any main rider that would go and fight some teenagers for an afternoon or three for some odd amusement, I'd have to pick Tsukasa. Causing chaos is his forte, so I'm excited to see what happens next. (Tsukasa is rather hard to gauge on the "actor with slightly different hair" gauge for obvious reasons, but I think I like this look of his?)

-Oh and Takeru's here too!!! I'm kinda happy this an arc where the Legend Rider tags along for the ride. Not only because I like him a lot, I just think him and Sougo are fun to pair up together. Geniunely don't remember him having cool monk-excorist powers or whatever on top of being a Rider, maybe he had time to do so in this revised timeline? Kinda sad they couldn't get Onari or Akari's actors, wouldve been fun.

-We did it, gang! Took us a bit, but Zi-o's dead(?). Show's over, go home, and make sure to buy a Ridewatch or two on the way out! .......But seriously, I love how Geiz spends the opening scene going "I'm your enemy! Don't forget that!!!" but when Tsukuyomi says he's not breathing, he gets equally concerned.

-Some comments here and there in the .5s, and especially the whole Drive bit makes me wonder how exactly they manage to corral up actors for a project like this. Were they just going to do this episode with Shibuya and Narita if Shun Nishime's schedule's never opened up? Are there actors who barely couldn't make it?

Once again, not much here. Just prep for next episode, but it was very fun prep indeed! (Now if you'll excuse me, I will follow Takeru's advice and go re-watch the Specter v-cin.)
