But that doesn't make much sense unless we're talking about a season where she's going to be the main Rider. At least secondary. Because other Riders are needed to experience the principles of the main one and either take its side, remaining themselves, but becoming a little better; or die in battle. I wouldn't say that Snipe or Grease is too much in line with classic Ryder values. So, for me personally, let her be an interesting character with her own motives and a dark side, rather than the cheerleader of the main Ryder in armor. In general, Reiwa definitely should give us a women's season. But not now, because after Jeanne, Aguilera may experience satiety and rejection, like what is happening now in Western culture.

They don't have to be the main rider, secondary, tertiary or whatever trivial ranking to embody anything. Just look at Hiromi.
I just want female rider that's entertaining to watch, that's something I honestly can't say for the current year. |

My personal hope for the female Rider (very nice that we can casually assume there'll be one somewhere along the line, thanks Reiwa) is that they take a page out of Sophia! Calibur and Izu! Zero-Two and give us a female Rider with a more androgynous design?
(Don't get me wrong, Sabela and Jeanne are solid designs! But I feel like there's more freedom in designs if you don't pigeonhole yourself into thinking "But how will they know this one's the girl??????", yknow? And a more androgynous design might soothe the suits' worries about the potenial of the toys of a female Rider not selling well too...) |

On account of Reika: a distinctive feature of the Shindai is their boundless devotion to the Sword of the Logos. They went against Isaac only after he himself said that he was no longer the Master of the Logos. Therefore, from the point of view of Reika and her brother, she did the right thing in the case of Sophia. Sophia herself, apparently, does not hold a grudge against Reika, which is quite in the nature of this character. Sophia is very restrained, keeps her feelings to herself and even alone over the photo with her dead friends does not cry, but simply looks sad. It is quite logical that such a person will not express her own claims to Reika (for Sophia's resentment is most likely directed at Isaac) and will not tell other characters about what happened, who could just get angry with Sabella. So maybe this outcome is wrong from the point of view of justice, but it is correct specifically for these characters and context. Of course, it would be great to see some kind of growth and development of Reika (especially since the potential, when exactly she defeated the Sage, was laid), but we will get this only in some kind of V-cinema / special.

It's just the season. We have the: - male couple with the most uniforms; - female couple favorites of the director; - unloved middle child; - and lazy designers. In such a company, Hiromi just has to be a classic Rider Quote:

Not so much for Zero Two, since I'd like for characters to have unique Rider identities, not just copying a form from the Primary Rider. Quote:
Sophia's owed an apology for what she had to endure, but I've never seen Reika ever feel remorse for any of her actions or attempt to make amends with the people she hurt, which is what makes her difficult for me to tolerate. Quote:

I'm going to agree with Rei on this. I think Saya as Delta was a way better character than those two, for how little time she got. Honestly, she's probably my favorite Delta user.

In Fourze, I had more in mind the monsters of two weeks. Gentaro offered to be friends with everyone, so that he would not be fooled, although the actions were very diverse. Quote:
I did mention that she seemed more tolerable in Beyond Generations, even sitting at the same table as Sophia without rancor. Same goes for her brief appearance in Trio of Deep Sin, actually. So maybe she softened a little offscreen in the time since Saber's finale.

But it's still something I would've liked to see addressed in the show. If a V-Cinema is needed to fix a character, then something is wrong there.

Speaking of female Riders: What type do you think we'll get in the Geats? We have (sort of) tsundere Jeanne, yandere Sabella and bookworm Valkiria. So what will be the next one? Party girl gyaru? Сheerful genki? Also thought what kind of dynamic would it create if the female Ryder was also the eldest in the whole cast?
