When she died, he only clung onto the wish even harder.

Michinaga never going to find his friend more or less has to do with the fact that he's always accepted that Tohru was gone. He moved on from the past, and only sought to stop the DGP from continuing to trample on other people. It would've been a bad regression of his character if he went and searched for Tohru.



They clearly pointed out that Jitt/Zitt was the Game Master of Bad Ends, and hinted that he had a hand in making Keiwa's wish go the way that it did. It was a wish that, while more specific than his first wish of world peace, was still vague enough that they could maneuver around it to make it work to their advantage. And it isn't like the DGP isn't necessarily above changing and adding rules, too.

So they could've easily made it so that the wish gave only the criminal and more antagonistic DGP Riders their memories and gear back, and the DGP could've just told them that they could've gone on a riot with what they got (and heck, Beroba had to go out of her way to give Kanato his gear back, so it wasn't instant for all of them). And that any of the more law-abiding DGP Riders were just not given back their memories or gear. Like I'm pretty sure that resurrected Sara before she died referred to Turbon as a "guy in a weird mask" rather than a "Kamen Rider", so she wasn't brought back with her memories.

As for meta reasons as to why we don't see previous other Riders from earlier coming back. Simply scheduling issues, the fact that they've retooled helmets pretty heavily (especially the Mary helmet), and just the fact that it would just be too many actors to bring back. Hell, I didn't even think they were going to bring back Kanato/Da-Paan until they did.
.

Except, throughout the show (in the Mary focus episode, the episodes where the Jyamato with Tohru's likeness and memories) Michinaga didn't seem to move on at all from the past, just shifted his focus to ending the DGP. That and it seems strange that Michinaga knows the benefits of working with others (working with Geats, his interactions with Keiwa and Neon) so it's odd that he didn't try at all. Not a plot hole, but quite a bit out of character.


As for the rest, the problem is that none of that is stated. Could Jit have manipulated the wish? Possibly, but it is never shown, stated, or even implied that someone else tampered in the outcome somehow.

I guess it's just a really odd choice (a lot of that in Geats). Kind of like if Revice had an event where Stamps got out to the general public for easy access/manufacturing but then literally nothing comes of it. Or if in Saber the Wonder World merged with the real world but somehow the worlds don't have any conflicts or actual interactions. Is that possible? Yes, but it would be poor storytelling.
