* [[Locked Out of the Loop]]: {{spoiler|The fact that he's a Singularity Point plays a major role in Sakurai and Airi's plans, which Ryotaro himself doesn't learn until the next-to-last episode, and only then by deceiving a past version of Airi.}}

* [[Meaningful Name]]: "Ryotaro" means "good boy".
* [[Multiform Balance]]: The forms Ryotaro can assume on his own.

* [[Eccentric Mentor]]
* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: The Owner and the Station Master have no names other than their job titles.

Line 128:

* [[Idiot Hero]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] through a [[Gilligan Cut]] by ''[[Kamen Rider Decade]]''.

* [[In the Name of The Moon]]: Either of Momo's catchphrases suffices.
* [[In the Style Of]]: The original Double-Action ([[Fan Nickname|nicknamed]] Sword Form to avoid confusion) = Eurobeat. Climax Jump Sword Form = Hard Rock.
Line 143:
** In ''Let's Go Kamen Rider'', he possesses [[Kamen Rider OOO|Ankh]] while ''he's'' already possessing the dead body of Shingo Izumi. He also possessed Eiji in a recent stage show.

* [[Regular Caller]]: Can detect enemy Imagin.
* [[Rule of Cool]]: What Momo usually tries to go by.
Line 155:

Line 175:

Line 282:
** The situation is inverted in ''Ore, Tanjo!'' where Sieg is the only Imagin available for a good portion of the movie<ref>Ura and Kin were held captive, Ryuta was temporarily convinced by Gaoh to his side, and Momo couldn't synchronize with Ryotaro because the latter has amnesia</ref>. Played straight again later, where Sieg is the only Den-O that isn't present in the movie's climax, although no explanation was given for that<ref>since Yuuto could have just kidnapped a Sieg-possessed Ryotaro for the battle</ref> except perhaps being injured after getting hit by Gaoh's Tyrant Clash as Den-O.
* [[Eleventh Hour Ranger]]
* [[
* [[Finishing Move]]: ''Royal Smash''
* [[Man in White|Imagin In White]]
* [[Incredible Shrinking Man]]: Has the power to make people shrink to action figure-size by saying "Bow your head!"<ref>''"Zu ga Takai!"'', lit. "Your head is high!"</ref>. The Imagin Anime gives him "Super Bow Your Head", which shrinks ''the whole world''.
* [[In the Style Of]]: Double-Action Wing Form = Arabic Pop

* [[The Thing That Would Not Leave]]: For the [[Kamen Rider Decade|Hikari Studio]].

* [[Weapon of Choice]]: When he's not [[Bare
** [[Dual
*** [[An Axe to Grind]]: / Handaxe Mode (made from the Axe and Gun parts)
*** [[Precision Guided Boomerang]]: DenLiner Boomerang Mode (made from the Sword and Rod parts)
Line 314:
* [[Distressed Damsel]]: ''Episode Red'' invokes this, since this is the condition of the contract between the Piggies Imagin and the [[Victim of the Week|Victim of the Movie]]: to put Airi in a dangerous situation so that he would be the one to rescue her, also invoking [[Rescue Romance]].
* [[In the Style Of]]: Double-Action Coffee Form, along with Naomi = Light Pop. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHtLUnjCFfU No, seriously].
* [[Laser
* [[Oblivious to Love]]
* [[The Pollyanna]]
* {{spoiler|[[Red Herring]]: as the identity of the Junction Point.}}
* [[Star
* [[Unwanted Harem]]: Not unwanted so much as [[Oblivious to Love|completely unnoticed]].
** ''Episode Red'' adds another one, which is an important part of the plot.
Line 366:
** Denebick Buster: ''Buster Nova''
* [[Heroic Willpower]]: While Ryotaro can't manifest any decent Den-O forms by himself (until Liner Form), Yuto's stronger will allows him to assume Zeronos Altair Form without the aid of an Imagin.
* [[Hey
* [[Holding Back the Phlebotinum]]: With good reason.
** And, apparently, Sakurai himself has a good reason for giving power with such a drawback in the first place. {{spoiler|Erasing [[Heroic Sacrifice|his (Sakurai's) own existence]] allows Yuto to [[Screw Destiny|write his *own* history]] <ref>in another timeline, anyway</ref>.}}
Line 401:
* [[Guile Hero]]
* [[The Plan]] {{spoiler|Most of the show's plot is predicated on a plan by Sakurai and Airi to protect their daughter Hana from the Imagin.}}
* [[Star
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: {{spoiler|1=Deneb tells off Sakurai for making Yuto use the Zeronos cards, even culminating in Deneb ''throwing Sakurai out of the ZeroGasher''.}}
-----
=== {{color|green|Deneb}}ZeroGasherKamen Rider Zeronos ({{spoiler|and New Den-O}}) Vega Form (voiced by [[Hochu Otsuka]]; suit actor Yoshifumi Oshikawa) ===
Line 428:
* [[Mighty Glacier]]: As {{color|gold|Vega}} Form, at least.
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood]]: The other Imagin call him Odebu<ref>A deformation on his name, it literally means "fatty"</ref>.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: Because he didn't tell Yuuto of his plans of going through a Haunted House event, Yuuto thought that Deneb was in danger when the latter was scared out of his wits; thus, Yuuto had to use up a Zeronos card even before finding out what really happened. [[What the Hell, Hero?|Yuuto didn't like Deneb's actions one bit.]]
* [[Noble Demon]]
* [[Shipper On Deck]]: Yuto/Airi, obviously.
* [[Sixth Ranger]]: With Yuto.
* [[
* [[Useful Notes On Japanese Culture]]: Inspired by the legend of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saitō_Musashibō_Benkei Benkei], as well as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tengu Tengu]. This second reference also ties into [[Tanabata]], where a bridge of birds (represented by the star Deneb) allows the two lovers to be together.
* [[Weapon of Choice]]
Line 456:
* [[Time Master]]: Unlike others, he's able to travel through time without a Time Train. {{spoiler|He's also able to tear open a hole in time and let loose an energy burst capable of erasing everything and everyone in the blast zone except himself from time.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Villainous Breakdown]]: Gets progressively more insane and unstable as the series goes on. But after discovering for that Sakurai ''isn't'' the Junction Point as he previously believed, he '''''snaps'''''. He tears apart the black calendar he'd been using to plan his attacks, gives all his remaining Imagin physical form, channels everything he's got left into the Death Imagin for an all-out attack on Tokyo. He then proceeds to try and completely erase the entire area from time despite his army still being present.}}
* [[Well
* [[You Have Failed Me]]: {{spoiler|pulls this on Ryutaros after the latter couldn't bring himself to kill Ryotaro.}} There's a good reason Ryutaros is so scared of him.

=== Imagin ===
The series' [[Monster of the Week]] creatures, Imagin are time-traveling spirits from a destroyed alternate future, with the goal of changing the past to bring their future back into existence. Initially they manifest as golden balls of light, but upon possessing a human victim (in a burst of energy and sand) they take a form from that person's imagination, drawing upon their mental image of various stories, legends, or folk tales. Once possessing a victim, Imagin offer them a "wish", twisting that person's desires to destructive ends. Once the wish is granted (by whatever loose definition the Imagin is using), a portal opens to the past via a particularly strong memory of victim's. From there the Imagin goes back in time and runs rampant in an attempt to alter the timeline. Upon defeat, particularly poweful Imagin will [[One
* [[Animal Motifs]]: as part of their fables and fairy tales theme designs.
Line 467:
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Say your wish. I will grant any wish." <ref>''"Omae no nozomi o ie. Donna nozomi mo kanaete yarou."''</ref>
* [[Deal With the Devil]]
* [[Dragon
** Rather than bring Kai back, they've had the Leo Imagin stand in to represent the Imagin any time the [[Kamen Rider]] evil organizations are gathered, like in ''Let's Go Kamen Riders''.
* [[Elite Mook]]: the New Molech Imagin, which always come up in large numbers.
* [[Hey
** Bat Imagin (1-2) = Kiyoyuki Tanaka ([[Bleach|Tessai Tsukabishi]])
** Chameleon Imagin (3-4) = [[Junichi Kanemaru]]
Line 504:
* [[Literal Genie]]: The Armadillo Imagin interprets its victim's wish to "cut ties" with the [[Yakuza]] literally - it walks up to his bosses, cuts their '''neck'''ties in half, and says "Contract fulfilled!"
* [[Meaningful Name]]: "Imagin" is derived from the words "imagine", "djinn"(the arabic word for genie), "Â�今" ("ima", Japanese for "now"), and "Â�人" ("jin", Japanese for "person").
* [[One
** [[Blow You Away|Heaven]]
** [[Making a Splash|Hades]]
Line 520:
* [[Big Bad]]: Of [[The Movie]]
* [[Big Eater]]: Quite literally; Gaoh spends most of his non-battle scenes munching on large quantities of food, such as whole turkey legs or pineapples.
* [[Card
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Everything, I'll devour it all." <ref>''"Zennin, ore ga kutte yaru."''</ref>
* [[Cool Old Guy]]: Hiroyuki Watanabe was 51 during filming, making him the oldest actor to portray a Kamen Rider.
Line 546:
* [[Butt Monkey]]
* [[Disappeared Dad]]: His father was a cop who died on the job when Kazuya was still very young.
* [[Hey
* [[Inspector Lestrade]]
* [[This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself]]: Though Hana could kick Kuroki's butt five ways from Sunday, she lets Suzuki collar him, even if it does mean a drawn-out fight where he takes his share of lumps.
* [[This Loser Is You]]
* [["Well Done, Son" Guy]]: His goal is to follow in his father's footsteps. {{spoiler|Amusingly, during their trip to 1986 to give Kazuya closure, we hear his father remark that he wants better for his son.}}
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Momo chews him out for foolishly [[Storming the Castle|infiltrating Negataros' HQ]] without any backup, leading to him getting captured. Granted, it was because the rescue attempt mounted by the Den-Os Police nearly cost them their lives.
----
Line 560:
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Negataros gets a great deal of expansion in Den-O's S.I.C. Hero Saga story, a text series published in Hobby Japan Magazine. The story, an alternate version of ''Climax Deka'', has Negataros travel to 1971 and join forces with Shocker, the evil organization of the original ''[[Kamen Rider (TV)|Kamen Rider]]'', which leads Ryotaro and Yuto to pursue and eventually team up with the Showa Kamen Riders.
* [[Card
* [[Evil Twin]]: Of Momotaros, as well as Den-O Sword Form.
* [[Finishing Move]]: As Nega Den-O, he can use any of Den-O's primary four finishers, though in ''Climax Deka'' we only see the ''Nega Wild Shot''. The arcade game ''Ganbaride'' shows the ''Negastreme Slash'', as well as giving Negataros himself a move that combines all four finishers, called ''Hell's Quartet''.
Line 639:
** [[BFS]]: MacheTeddy; It's made up of [http://kamenrider.wikia.com/wiki/File:Den-O-Yuuki-hijack.jpg two complete DenGasher sets].
** [[Whip It Good]]
* [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]: Has a tragic backstory.
