Ryotaro’s grief was just a mirror of what I was going through. Like Yuuto, I’d’ve eaten a thousand bowls of (gross) mushrooms to honor Deneb’s passing. It’s incredibly effective as tragedy.
And then the reveal that, no, of course all of these heroic imagination monsters from the end of time aren’t gone. They wanted to wait a beat, then surprise their friends, but now the moment has gone on a little long and oh no they are crying really hard and it feels bad and uh oh this joke is going to feel a little cruel now and uh he’s still crying and now Hana’s crying too and Sieg’s realizing that Ryotaro didn’t even mourn him like the rest and they’re all being a little too loud and the jig is definitely up because Ryotaro is looking this way hi I’ve arrived ha ha
whoops

It's not Blade's ending, no, but Blade's ending murdered me to death and I might have run screaming from Kamen Rider if we'd had another one like that just 3 series later...
I did love this ending for Den-Oh, and it's stuck with me really, really well. Kobayashi's ability to nail emotion is something I love about her writing and I will happily watch pretty much anything she's ever done regardless of the rest of its flaws when it gives me moments like this one. It makes me v happy that it resonated with you, too.
I want to say that I also enjoy the Time Nonsense but then it occurs to me that I somehow completely forgot that Hana was their kid All Along so apparently I am less attached to the Time Nonsense than I thought I was, haha
My favorite specific thing about this finale is that Sato absolutely nailed the scene of Ryotaro mourning his lost friends and then finding them arguing about their prank, and I think it's arguably his best (of many great) moments on the series. His FACE, it also killed me, but, you know. In a good way.
