You know, for some I always thought that the ORE Journal investigation into Mirror World petered out and died (it has been years since I saw Ryuki). But I guess the truth comes out and the editor guy gives Shinji some advice

I always kind of liked the way they handled the end of this episode. I also like the questions it raises for people watching through this series for the first time. The main character is dead, so who's the real main character? What's the true story behind the Riders and Mirror World? And who will get their wish in the end?

Ultimately who will win the Rider battle?

Is it me or Shirou's voice completely changed when Yui was about to disappear completely? I guess his stoic voice is a front to hide his fear about losing Yui completely.

That punk Shinji died. And kind of cheaply too. A grunt took him out. @_@

You completely missed the point of his death. He didn't die cheaply. He died as a person protecting another life not as a Rider who fought for himself only like about all the other Riders were (except Raia). Shinji's death wouldn't mean as much if he died while fighting Odin or even Knight. He died in a good way I suppose.

Wow. What an episode. I can honestly say I wasn't expecting that to happen, that and the amount of blood that came out of him, jebus!

Like people have said before, if this doesn't have a Blade level ending, its going to be a disappointment. Its been so great so far.

I was shocked with this episode. We lost two people. Kanzaki reverting back to his younger personality and stopped being the "I am god" nonsense, was a big plus. Still, more questions where brought up. Why did the parents just not care? What about the grandmother now. The ending is fully up in the air.

Well the grandmother did make a comment in the previous episode to the effect she had no idea the parents were raising the kids in the way they were. I though she was implying they were strict to the point of being what we'd consider abusive.

As to Shinji... well I have to say his actor really impressed me. 48 episodes of playing an indecisive dork and suddenly he does this poignant death scene. (The bit a few episodes back where he kicked the tail of that creep and sent him packing from the restaurant was also nice). Also, I was as floored as Shinji that Ren was all breaking down from his death. I wonder of Ren will now be fighting to win -- to resurrect his buddy?

Man this scene always makes me tear up inside every time I see it. And seeing it again after watching the series all the way through makes it just as sad as the first time. Now it's up to Ren to decide everyone' fate.

Am I bad that I cried more for Shinji than I did for Yui??

I was not expecting that. Ryuki so far is my favorite Rider series now thanks to this episode

Shinji's death only further strengthens my theory the show should actually be called Kamen Rider Knight.

I agree. In my eyes Ren has always been more of the main character than Shinji. Shinji always felt like the well-meaning, bumbling sidekick that most of the Kamen Rider series have.
