Main Riders Posing as Others.

[Japaneseseriesfan]

When was the last time we had a main Rider who used another Rider's device or power and transformed into them? The only times I remembered these happening were:

SPOILERS

[hide] Agito: Shoichi becoming G3-X
Ryuki: Shinji taking Ren's deck when he died in the 13 Rider Special and transformed into Knight
Faiz: The entire series was developed around belt stealing.
Blade: As far as I remembered, Kenzaki never used another Rider's buckle. Unless you want to count that incident that he was affected with the Leangle's buckle.
Kabuto: Perfect Zecter doesn't count. He didn't transform into another Rider.
Decade: Doesn't count cause technically, those are his forms.
OOO: I do not really know to judge but, I doubt Eiji will take on the Birth Driver anytime soon [/hide]

I guess you could count both guys who started as TheBee then became Gackts entourage..er, excuse me The Hoppers.

I think it's a lame shtick to begin with and I don't miss it at all. Faiz ran the well completely dry on that and it wasn't great there either. At least when Shouichi was G3 it was basically for laughs. It's kinda like asking Clark Kent to don the Iron Man suit. Awkward...

I liked when it happened in Ryuki. I'm hit and miss on the instanses of it in faiz but at least there it made sense. Same with kabuto

Does CycloneAccel Xtreme count? It did finally happen in one of the movies, right?

I mean, not fully because it's still the accel memory but Ryu /would/ be posing as half of W/Double

No, I don't think it does count. Not unless it would become a W Returns exclusive
