Early Heisei series is usually dark. ryuki is considered one of the darkest(kuuga is still the darkest). I don't know why they don't touched it either. My guess is to not give a reason for parent backlash. Implied is ok but you can't directly said/show it. One of the reason there is barely little to no civilian death in the beginning of the series. From Kuugo to Decade, monster still kill civilian. Starting Fourza, we barely see it. I don't know whether it's correct or not though.

What makes Kuuga the darkest series? Sure they show the MOTW kill an innocent person, but other series did that too (like Agito). Most of the darkness is implied (I remember stuff like a reporter saying how many people died, but the show not actually showing much of it).

Eh, one of the many different endings had the female lead kill herself before ending on a cliffhanger that basically said that Ryuga is going to destroy the world. It's a story about people in a battle royale of sorts. It's very dark but most of it is bland and boring. imo.

Maybe for you but Ryuki still hold a spot in my top 5 best kamen rider: Kuuga,Ryuki,Faiz, Blade, W, & Build.

Also at 5:19 is the sentence "He disappears places where there's nowhere to run". However, I'm looking at the 720p version, which seems to be old, so it could have been fixed.

And at 13.38 is "Realy sly."

Uhh sounds okay to me what's wrong with it?

"He disappears places" should be "He disappears from places". "He disappears places" means "he causes places to disappear".

"Realy" should be spelled "Really".

Doesn't necessarily need a particle there. It would make the meaning more obvious but tbh I think it's pretty obvious by context he's not a magician.

the really was fixed

For many mistakes, it's obvious from context what the mistake is supposed to be.

Disappear as a transitive verb means to make someone or something disappear.

Except in this case it's not being used as a transitive verb. I'm not arguing that it couldn't be used in that context but you have to remeber that slang is a thing and in this case it'd be fine to drop the particle because it's pretty obvious what the situation is.

Disappear as a transitive verb is extremely sloppy English. The line as written was fine. It's slang, and how people actually speak, as opposed to using Disappear as a transitive verb, which is how small children speak when they don't know any better.

I wish the power up arcs had higher stakes like they used to in older series.

That makes two of us. But at least Sougo will stop getting his ass kicked every week.

This has been bugging me since I saw this episode. I get they were going for a "Print is dead" vibe, but wouldn't a site where users reported on the news be INSANELY popular in this age of social media? Maybe it's a cultural difference thing......

He covers up the mirrors because he's scared of his mirror self, but if he's afraid for his life, why commit suicide? That theory just doesn't add up to me.

Because if he dies then so does his counterpart. At least that was my initial thought. But if that were the case then he probably would have embraced Geiz cutting him down. It probably was their intention but they decided not to follow up on it for whatever reason.

This episode was just alright. It wasn't terrible but didn't set the world on fire either. Ryuki was always an interesting setting but I feel they're not using it to it's full potential.
