While we talk about Saber, can i talk about my opinion on why Falchion is one of the best rider movie character?

Sure this guy originated from a 20 minutes movie, but he manage to move from said movie into the main series almost seamlessly without breaking the pacing, stake or the story beat.

Instead it all still remain consistent and he manage to raise the stake even higher while not feeling like he come seemingly at random thanks to Kyoumu being shown through Kento vision.

He even get some development in the main series and doesn't overstay his welcome at all, like usually movie rider cameo into the main series are barebone and look obviously shoe horne, but Falchion feel like a main series rider introduce early through movie rather than movie rider migrating into main series.

Him being the last seiken user to show up also help.


Only thing that feel random is emotional dragon but even then emotional dragon just feel like the usual rider cameo than anything so is pretty easy to swallow.

And while we at it, i also want to say Kyoumu is probably the best movie rider item i have ever seen.

I know that in my opinion the seiken in general are probably one of the best transformation device to come in rider due to how they're written in the series, but Kyoumu is just a gigachad.

This sword show up in a movie, go to the main series seamlessly while also become one of the key item for final form, get use by the characters in main series one even transforming once using it, have one of the best finisher and moment in rider series, then it was use again in the movie as the main antagonist main transformation device and said movie is one of the rider movie that the majority regard as one of the best rider movie too.

Seriously i'm really impressed with Falchion and Kyoumu in general that i can't help but praise it, but damn did i create a wall of text lol.
