Narutaki looks and sounds tired, and tbh, I feel that. But hey, good to see him back, still a friend to all Kamen Riders.
He's definitely a friend to Kamen Rider Oma Zi-O, that's for sure.
One of the things I sort of liked about this special is how it critiqued the solo, post-series Tsukasa appearances, and how much less heroic he gets as the years drag on. It's almost Oma Zi-O-esque, honestly: this guy who was a hero, goes it alone, stops seeing the worth of individuals as he defends a larger scale of humanity, and eventually becomes indistinguishable from a villain. (He's pretty disinterested in the people getting murdered in this special!)
But then Team Decade pops out of a floorboard, and he's a hero again, risking everything to save all of reality from someone else's narrative and nemesis.
Like, that's Zi-O's message as a show? That we need other people to keep us in check as well as lift us up?
INOUE!
