Kamen Rider Ryuki - Talkback

[Forever Knight]

There's more meaning to the use of the Time Vent card.

When I look at Ryuki, it was more close to how the real world is. Just beacuse someone got this power doesn't mean he or she will automatically use it for good. Not to mention that the 13 Riders are people from different parts of society itself. In the end, nothing good came from the Rider War itself. Especially since Kanzaki kept restarting it, mostly due to the outcomes. While many fans didn't like the restart, it was for the best since Yui would never accept a new life at the expense of 12 individials.

Memory lapse here.

Was it not Shiro that did the restart?.

He did the restart minus the Rider War, when he finally accepted that Yui would never want a new life at the expense of others.

Which is a PERFECT excuse to accept the restart, in my opinion anyway.

QFT. The people who hate Ryuki's ending don't get its significance and how bittersweet it is.

A message that could just as well have been portrayed without erasing everything that happened. You could have had Ren win, save Eri and either live on and show the epilogue from his point of view; or have him die (It was never clear in that final scene) and then keep telling the story from Daisuke's point of view.

The point is you could have had that bittersweet ending without resorting to making everything that happened in the last 49 episodes virtually irrelevant. Using Time Vent in a battle or something like that is one thing, but in the way they did it, there's no stopping Kanzaki from just it using whenever he felt like it.

You've learned nothing.

I used to justify the finale too. Now I think differently. If anything I learned a bit from other people and from seeing more shows.
