Fridge Brilliance[]

  • Why does Gorou, upon assuming Zolda's identity, stick to using ranged attacks, despite being a good hand-to-hand fighter? Because he didn't want to give away the deception to Asakura.
  • Ren/Knight, despite having little or no qualms about fully participating in the Rider War, can't bring himself to kill another Rider, and the one whom he did, Odin, never really died in the sense of the Odin persona remaining alive. It makes more sense when his status as a Batman Expy is remembered.
  • Kanzaki's right hand man is Kamen Rider Odin, whose motif is a phoenix. What are phoenixes known for?
  • Asakura's death scene makes a lot more sense when you realize he's obsessed with finishing what he started. Look at how he manipulated Reiko into tracking down and reuniting him with his brother, all for the sake of getting another shot at him. That was years ago, when they were kids, but he never forgot and was probably thinking about it all this time. Now he spent the whole series trying to kill Kitaoka, and failing. The weaselly lawyer always got away. After what happened with his brother, he probably decided he would never let someone he was trying to kill escape. When he again failed to kill him, it finally drove him insane... well, insaner.
  • If you watched Kamen Rider Agito, you'll know why the evil Agito Burning Form, existing simultaneously with regular Agito in the Ryuki vs Agito short, isn't that farfetched an idea.[1]
    • It also relate to how Shinji had a mirror copy who was downright evil.
  1. The premise of Agito states that certain humans can evolve past humanity and into an Agito, and it's happened to several characters already (Shoichi, Dr Kino, Shoichi's sister in the past, and Ryo/Gills could also count)
