I like how its just “Blade’s ending is sad and melancholic, showing how just a normal man needs to abandon all that makes him happy to save the world, and centuries later after loosing his friends and seeing wars pass by him. Now he is just a husk of his former self.” “AND THEN ZI-O HAPPENED-“

Blade's and Gaim's endings to me play into the morals of the original Kamen Rider's. The protagonists both lose their humanity, however they do what they can for people around them. Both are great wrap up's imo, dispite my overall opinions on Blade as a season...

[@OhKeh]

Blade and Gaim have always been my favorite Rider seasons. A lot of morality comes into question in both shows and you get to see each protagonist mature for the sake of saving the world.

[@kamenriderXIV]

just my thoughts on interpreting the endings: 1. Kuuga: a man who was torn body and spirit to protect the smiles of those around him finds that he can't smile the way he used to. he goes off on a journey to regain his smile once again. 2. Agito: the real main character(s) were not the kamen riders themselves but it was the two forces who had planted the agito seed in humans. (otherwise, Agito was just an awkward series that tried to someone link to Kuuga in continuity) 3. Faiz: a coming to terms with death 4. Ryuki: the power to give up the things that you want for a better future 5. W: a story of a person becoming "full fledge" 6. Decade: profiting off nostalgia with no real explanation of anything except that everything is getting screwed by the merger of worlds (still one of my favourites because of nostalgia, plus being able to use other rider powers? awesome) 7. Gaim: using a biblical Genesis Motif in finding an Adam and Eve. Also the franchise maximizing profit from kamen rider toys and goods 8. build: a journey of identity and finding your place in the world and you can make your own world! or something like that. I just thought the cinematography and story telling was great. Grease was my favourite. 9. OOO: a story of finding and achieving your dreams; the real ending wasn't in the tv series but in the movies where Eiji actually dies 10. Drive: didn't watch it. but Kiriko is hot as hell. happy to see a rider marry his love 11. Fourze: friendship and bond and graduation, nuff said. I just don't get how a guy in modern Japan goes around wearing an old regent hair cut 12. Amazons: sorry, I was just tramautized by the whole thing, so let's interpret the ending as love. 13. Blade: he became the very thing he was meant to destroy and sacrificed his humanity to save humanity. one thing that I will always love about the kamen rider series is that the rider system is always born out of darkness, but it becomes the light that fights the darkness.

[@justinusknovarianto2536]

lol one thing ugly about DECADE is just that the other riders power activation is ugly as hell, wtf split or bend torso tu be a weapon, ffff (still one of my fav too), that thing about DRIVE future child + marriage ending on the last movie is all I asked for (in kamen rider movie)

[@alfianfawzi2064]

6:10 I wish Toei would revisit the lost ending's story concepts for a Decade 20th Anniversary Project (possibly much later in 2029), albeit with some changes following the developments Decade had gone through for the past few years until now. That would be a good chance to do him justice, provided that he's handled right. I still believe Toei & Bandai would do something more with Decade by looking with their releases of Neo Decadriver, K-Touch 21, & the CSM Decadriver Ver. 2. They've already broken through the limits of the old Decadriver with those toys and I can see them keep doing this in the foreseeable future. Not to mention, Diend's also confirmed to appear in KR Outsiders, so the implications might still be there. I wish that this Decade 20th Anniversary project would have the same duration (or more) as Kamen Rider Black Sun with 10 episodes X 40 minutes to provide more room to work with the plot, the actions, & the fanservices. Here's what I'm expecting: - Decade & Diend get new forms, possibly a better-looking Strongest Complete Form 21 and a new version of Violent Emotion for Decade. - Decade teams up with fellow Legacy gimmick users, being Zi-O, Revice, & Fifteen (possibly along with 10th Reiwa Rider) - Narutaki becomes the main/final villain and transforms into Kamen Rider Dark Decade. Would be a perfect time to explore his character here since Toei hasn't bothered to do so for years. - The story would heavily emphasize on the Kamen Rider legacy; how they would uphold its ideals, how their past, present, and future are connected with each other, and how they would maintain the legacy for generations to come. Kinda like an epic way of saying "respect the past, embrace the future".

[@TheGloryXros]

FORREAL THO, I was so hoping for this during Zi-O....!!! They really should've taken some time to give Decade the justice it deserves!!! Heck, they should've done this in the Zi-O vs Decade Specials. But NOPE, unfortunately Tsukasa dies a lame death, and apparently Masahiro Inoue is saying that that's the official wrap-up of his character.....SMH.

[@Princeomishore]

[@alfianfawzi2064]

@@Princeomishore The "lost episode"/teaser from Ep. 31

[@Lorfofm]

Ren's wish was not to bring everyone back to life, it was to wake up Eri. The reason why everyone came back to life in the ending was because of Shiro Kanzaki resetting the Timeline with Time Vent, as had been shown off in Ryuki's Clip Show Episode, and was implied to have been doing so in the final episode.

[@Marcosatsu]

Ooo's Ending Is Awesome And Tragic Because Of Ankh"s Sacrifice

[@GR-ic7mt]

All of ryuki ending are weird but that's part of the fun and the fact that there is so many different alternative endings kinda makes me feel like the show exists as this never ending purgatory battle royal just restarting agian and agian

[@Agito4774]

Oh man, Kuuga, Blade, & OOO have my absolute top 3 most favorite Rider endings ever as they're just absolutely so beautiful & phenomenal ;)

[@jancelabobo8238]

I really wish the 10year anniv movie for OOO was written better, especially since it led to the part where Eiji sacrificing himself mirrors how Ankh did so in the series, including the sequence towards the final henshin

[@muhamadnurilafton1898]

Yeah i agree... Could've been better... I dont mind if they make Eiji died but i think it couldve done more emotional... Like if u make Hina brother dying again before ankh show up again. And then at the end ankh want to save eiji because he is dying too, but this time ankh cannot save both person... So eiji have to let it go ankh so Hina brother can survive... And then the moment Eiji let go Ankh, i think that couldve more message to viewer who is eiji and good farewell to us... If that they do that, i think we could get more emotional.... Im sorry its just my opinion...

[@zilongma5067]

Blade has a really good ending Heisei era riders always had good story telling in one form or another you just don't really see that anymore. Geats so far is a step in the right direction but hopefully they make something truly special again.

[@MisterDangerousX]

Blade's ending is the most emotional and brave one.

[@reinjameslobidojr.24]

And then zi-o happened

[@ducpham1478]

For me, W original run's ending (the last 2 episodes) made me had a lot of different feelings, depending on the time I watched them. The first time was like almost a decade ago, near to its original run. And back then I hated it so much. The younger me could not feel the weight of their loss, and hated the way they just bring back a character after such build up for his end. But the me a decade after, after going through life & losses, saw a deeply attached emotion with the characters, understanding the bond of our main characters, and almost cried at that scene with Shotaro. I also stopped hating on the way they brought back Philip too, that's pretty normal, and tbh fits the universe quite well. So, mixed feelings. But turns out to be good after all.

[@Kuchiri]

Ryuki - It wasn't Ren's wish. It was Yui's wish. One of the final lines is her asking her brother to reset everything and just live in the mirror dimension with her. Since Ren technically died and Shiro is somehow still alive he decided to grant that wish.

[@Account-ow6rz]

Ren made Shinji's wish come true, by closing the mirror world

[@Kuchiri]

@@Account-ow6rz Ren uses his wish to revive Eri then Dies. Shiro then rewinds time to make everything he did not happen because Yui asks him to. You're free to rewatch the final episode if you want to fact check me. Ren's wish was for Eri to be alive like his wish always was. Then he died.

[@firewolf950tfwgaming7]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@KuchiriI disagree. If that were Ren’s wish, it’d defeat the whole point of episode 49 where he pleads for Shinji to live while hearing out his wish. Rather, I think he did close the mirror world or was in some way able to stop the fighting by make it not happen, either by his wish or by his and Shinji’s effect on Kenzaki to the point where he learned to stop resetting time for Yui which in turn saves Eri as she would have no reason to be in a coma.

[@Kuchiri]

@firewolf950tfwgaming7 Yui literally asks Shiro in the final episode to fix everything. Then the reset happened. Ren's wish was to see his girlfriend revived, which she was, then she saw his motionless body. The whole ending is horrible, and it makes me hate the entire season because of it.

[@kradfreedom9624]

Doctor: Female Shinji isn't real, it wont hurt you... FEMALE SHINJI: 1:16

[@jeremytirtokusumo6171]

Jokes aside, what made blade's ending a "bright side" for me is knowing that kenzaki's journey has only just begun. After the end, eventually he'll meet other riders and help protect the world as another...i kid you not...another passing by rider He may not have his old friends but he'll meet more Nuff said

[@spoogtastic]

So first thought when I read the title: Blade is #1 for me. I also really loved Gaim and Builds endings. Especially the final battle in Gaim, prolly my favorite fight in a rider series.

[@aroundtheflatearth2388]

Kamen rider , the toys are for kids and gimmicks but the stories are for the adults , that was I always told my friends.

[@Account-ow6rz]

Ryuki was a nice series but the last episode summed up the whole series and its ending was the most convincing and reasonable from all the other alternative endings. If the rider war takes place in real life on day, the same scenario would happen. Many people would fight selflessly and kill others just to grant their wish, others would join in for fun. Best option is to never let something like this happen at all

[@grizzakaful]

Build was my favorite, even with the movie extensions. Only wish they did it differently for Banjo.

[@shadowmage319]

Ryuki ended with Shiro accepting his sister's death and reset the timeline and remove the rider war to honor her.

[@ZephyrBW]

Yeah I gotta say zi-O really messed up a lot. But my favorites are definitely decade as you said even though we all rooted for Tsukasa to change his course he still couldn’t stop that in the end he’s the destroyer of everything. Yet there’s something about how he may not be a guardian like the other Kamen riders but him being more like a guardian devil who fights to protect the guardians, really makes for a cool and great story.

[@DrageLee]

6:04 I am but a high schooler, yet you somehow managed to make me feel old.

[@OkMakuTree]

Build’s ending - Sento and his friends sacrifice everything so that a world might exist without all the pain and suffering caused by Evolt and the Pandora’s Box Build’s V-Cinemas - Brings back Evolt and has Sento and co knowingly set him loose on the new universe 🫠

[@Badingading]

Gaim would've had an amazing ending if it had ended one episode sooner. While I'm generally fine with the idea of putting Micchi on the path to redemption, I feel that the actual final episode handled it in a very forced and overreaching manner, between bringing back a villain (and expecting the audience to know them) who only really had a presence in the otherwise completely optional movie and then having Micchi's severed and ruined relationships with the rest of the remaining cast almost completely repaired after the battle ended despite the whole... basically everything he did in the rest of the series. If they'd gone with a different villain (say, a stray Inves or a weakened remaining overlord) and put more emphasis on this being just a step forward in Micchi's path to redemption I feel it would've been a stronger ending overall while still more or less having the same end state.

[@sofialu226]

Wait, there is a Movie continuation of Build? Why? I thought the ending was perfect and so good. Even more with Sento at least Having One Person who also knows what they did. If Sento was left 100% alone that would be sad af and would be ok with the movie, but he had Banjou at least and their relationship development was so good that the ending was extremley satisfyng... So Why a Movie?
