Kamen Rider Wizard EP 30 "The Day The Magic Died"

^When t he guy's right he's right. BTW, how come Haruto used Gravity and Thunder outside of dragon here?

He's become experienced to the point where he can use the Dragon Rings outside of Dragon Forms? I mean, it could be possible.

*Reads the episode title, and feels creative* ... I can't remember if I cried, when I read about his wizard's pride, but something struck me deep inside... The day the magic died~ 10 points to anyone who knows what I'm referencing. :169:

--His name is Legion?! HE IS L!!!!
--You know, if you are going to have a bunch of shots of hands reaching for Haruto's low hanging belt buckle, maybe you should have the actual Henshin Belt there. :sayin:
--Oh Shotaro, forced to be a street performer after all these years... Oh well! :anime: Maybe you'll get to perform a duo with Philip and--Oh. Well, guess we won't be seeing him in any more Rider team ups. :disappoin
--Rinko's got quite the healthy appetite. I can now seeing her being a little portly in her elder years. :hmm:
--Entertaining kids seems like a really irresponsible use of power, especially after using it to help Koyomi. No provocation, no reasons, just doing it because.... Kamen Riders are natural suckers for little kids? :shrug:
--So the L Phantom attacks nice, kind-hearted people. Yep, I see the pattern all ready. :rolleyes2:
--No mantles in Hyper? I call bull! No way Toei or Bandai would want to waste a chance at more toys! >8(
--So what is his sister's condition? I know I should pay attention to the action, but what does she need cheering up for? Is she terminally ill or something? :eyebrow: I guess Haruto should be lucky her brother is mad at him for 1 upping him earlier.
--Cool! Gremlin finally getting punished! About time someone put him in his place.
--So he forces himself into people's Underworlds, gate or not, and reeks all kind of havoc... Is this the Phantom version of rape? :confused2
--HA! Beast doesn't like putting rings on dudes. :laugh: I love self-aware humor!
--The Dragon and the Chimera fighting the Phantom? I don't care what anyone says about the CGI; this battle is AWESOME!
--:O_O: T-That finale... The Dragon, the belt, and that preview! MORE NOW, DANG YOU!!!

I really wish Hyper had been able to keep on using the mantles, as I think those are the most innovative (and cool) part of Beast's design. It would be pretty neat if his upgrade was just gaining access to the Mirage Magnum, but retaining his base form so he could continue to use the mantle powers.

Secondary Riders usually don't sell anyway, that's why we only have one of them for every show since W.

You forgot that when Accel attained Trial, he never used the Engine Blade (maybe he did but i can't remember for sure) and Meteor rarely used Meteor Galaxy (again, maybe he did) while in Meteor Storm

My point is that when secondary Riders attained their power-up form, they usually don't make use of their primary form's weaponry/powers and make full use of their power-ups.

But Beast Hyper can still fall back on Dice Saber (but that would be risky considering the element of luck involved :laugh and hypothetically, use Kick Strike as well so he is in the same vein as Meteor and have 2 different finishers.

Terui used the Engine Blade a few times with Accel Trial but it simply couldn't keep up for what he could do in Trial.

Would you rather deliver a dousin kicks or a single sword swing?

A single sword swing. What if I pull something after too many kicks?

I wasn't really excited about this episode before I sat down to watch it. I think I'd already dismissed it due to them using the same idea as last year of the main Rider getting "killed". I was pleasantly surprised though. The secondary plot wasn't boring, Beast actually had a role to play in the story, we got to see the other normal Styles (I thought Toei had forgotten them already!), Gremlin's paying off and we get a pretty cool bad guy (though I don't really get what the costume has to do with the "legion" idea - it looks more like a fishman with a marble in it's mouth?!).

The only weakness I can really think of is that the CGI on Chimera was a bit weak. He was just really stiff and barely moved his legs at all, when it would have been cool to seem him pouncing and clawing and stuff. But oh well, forgiveable.

I think that Koyomi is probably housing the Philosopher stone and the magic Haruto has been giving her is powering it

Yeah as soon as they said that I though "oh, so that's what she is then" lol.

Accel in Trial used an Engine Blade finisher once, I think.Maybe twice.It was basically the same thing as his Machine Gun Spike but with fast sword slashing instead of rapid kicks.

Ryusei never used the Meteor Galaxy in Meteor Storm.At least he did the Rider Kick 3 times in Meteor Storm.He also used a Fire in his belt in Storm once.

There's a Hyper Slash Strike sound in the Dice Saber, so I hope Beast does use the attack.I'd also like to see a Rider Kick, since he's only used his Rider Kick once and that was in his default form.
