So yeah, Kagerou. He’s a fairly popular character (he came third in a Japanese popularity poll, only beaten out by Aguilera and Hiromi), but I never cared much for him. Mostly because his personality can basically sum up as “hates Ikki”. I’d say a bit more, but I’ll let you watch the next few episodes.

Casting trivia: The guy playing the lawyer was previously the butler from Gaim Gaiden: Baron, while the judge was previously the cafe owner who briefly employed Takumi in Faiz. The latter is currently appearing as the butler Sebastian in King-Ohger.

Ikki: It’s Ikki and…

Vice: Vi- (gets knocked back by Kagerou, inhabiting Daiji, who will henceforth be referred to as “K-Daiji” to distinguish them)

K-Daiji: Daiji’s…

Both: Stamp Navi!

Ikki: A little unusual, but today’s Vistamp is… this one!

Kangaroo!

Jump up! Psych up! Kangaroo! The punch of victory has been set!

K-Daiji: Kangaroo Genome has the full statistics of the famous marsupial. It boasts a tremendous punching power.

Ikki: Wow, Daiji. I’m surprised you know so much about it.

K-Daiji: I’ve been reading Karizaki’s notes. But I’ll let him do the explanations for the Legend Rider.

(Suddenly, from out of the Kangaroo Vistamp, comes a shape that knocks an entering George out and takes the shape of…)

Evolt: Pah. Why would you want to hear the story told by this geek, when I personally witnessed the whole thing, even contributing to some parts of it?

Desire Driver: Build.

Are you ready?

Sento: Henshin!

Hagane no Moonsault, RabbitTank! Yay!

Evolt: Kamen Rider Build. Originally the Devil’s Scientist Takumi Katsuragi, an unfortunate accident gave him a new identity as Genius Physicist Sento Kiryu. Using the Best Match abilities of his Fullbottles, he battled the attempts to drive his country into anarchy through warfare.

Sento: The laws of victory have be-

Sougo: BEEN SET!

Vice: ‘Devil’s Scientist’, huh? Sounds like my kind of guy.

Evolt: Yeah, Katsuragi was cool. Shame he got betrayed by someone who he trusted unconditionally. (He starts sniffing K-Daiji, before turning to Ikki) Tell me, Boy. Do you trust this man unconditionally?

Ikki: Sure. Daiji’s my precious little bro. He’d never hurt me.

Evolt: (laughing) I see. (He turns to K-Daiji) Good luck with your task, kid. Ciao.

(And with that, Evolt disappears as George wakes up)

George: What was all that about?

K-Daiji: (feigning friendliness) We hope you enjoy the next instalment.

Self-production notes: K-Daiji isn’t just an invention of this feature. It’s how the scripts for the show referred to him.

The rationale behind the dialogue for Sento’s catchphrase being the scene of Sougo screwing it up is that unlike, George, who makes his montages out of the Rider’s most awesome moments, Evolt chose either Sento’s most humiliating moments, or scenes of Katsuragi Sr. as Build’s awesome moments.
