Plus, won't lie, I definitely felt for Yuriko during the scenes where she made her promise with Shigeru and then after the fight where she passes on. There was an effort to this last episode that I totally won't discredit.
This is one of the most memorable Showa Rider episodes I've watched. It's tragic that, unlike Jo who is fully committed to the lonely Kamen Rider lifestyle, Misaki still dreams of a normal life after the fighting is all over, but being a remodified human means having to fight as long as you live, so the only way out of that cursed life was by death. It's also a shame that this is Toei's official reason for why Tackle isn't labeled a Rider (unofficial reason being "girl"), an outdated concept by modern standards. Nevertheless, this is still a little victory for Misaki, that she chose to reject the slow helpless death by poison that Dr. Kate dealt her, in favor of a heroic sacrifice that saved the day and became a legacy for Jo to continue fighting as well.
It would've been preferable if this was saved for the final arc, since it's not like Stronger has any other recurring female characters to take her place. Judged on its own merits though, this episode is full of genuine emotion and gave us one last lighthearted scene between Jo, Misaki and Tachibana before the trio is broken forever.
