Line 1:
{{tropework}}
* [[Alas, Poor Villain]] - {{spoiler|Masato Kusaka}}.
** Also, {{spoiler|Yuji Kiba}} gets such a scene in the movie when he dies.
* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]] - Interestingly, I've heard that the Japanese don't have a problem with Masato Kusaka.
Line 13:
* [[Game Breaker]]: Blaster Form.
* [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]] - This series was a major hit in Malaysia.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: in the first episode, Kiba ends up in a car crash. [[Tear Jerker|His actor died in 2015]]. [[Tear Jerker|Ouch]]
* [[Magnificent Bastard]] - Masato Kusaka. He's a scheming [[Jerkass]] of epic proportions, and the epic proportions are what make him fun to watch. He's basically a "good guy" version of [[The Starscream]] (and the term "good guy" is used very loosely--he's only a "good guy" because he hates the villains only slightly more than he hates the heroes). He's popular in Japan, but the popularity could be the ''enjoyment of a good bad guy.'' He really is the series' best villain, and a rare instance of it being shown that not everyone who ''doesn't want the apocalypse'' is necessarily a sweetheart in all (or any!) other ways.
* [[Memetic Sex God]] - The Faiz Gear's voice. {{smallcaps| Standing by. Complete.}}
* [[Narm]] - Possibly when Dragon Orphenoch stopped beating up Faiz due to a toy airplane.
* [[Nightmare Fuel]] - Just how do Orphnochs kill and/or turn a human? {{spoiler|By having tentacles enter their insides and go into the heart (Though Kiba just downright ''stabs the heart with his sword''), shown rather graphically ([[Special Effects Failure|against a backdrop of a chest X-ray, thankfully]]).}} [[But Wait! There's More!]]. {{spoiler|Said target then continues to live for a few minutes, wandering in some confusion before dying and turning into dust... or reviving as an Orphnoch.}}
** How could you forget that {{spoiler|said heart ''bursts into flames and disintegrates into nothing?''}}
** The scene showing the Orphnoch King eating an Orphnoch. Petrifying it first, then breaking its face off and eating it with crunching noises, then opens its mouth with a simple but HORRIBLY disturbing CGI effect.
Line 22 ⟶ 23:
* [[Retroactive Recognition]] - Kaidou's actor, Mitsuru Karahashi, may now be better known to tokusatsu fans as Fuwa Juzo in ''[[Samurai Sentai Shinkenger]]''.
** Same thing for Kitazaki's actor, Ray Fujita, better known as Rei Suzumura from ''[[Garo]]''.
* [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's for Kids?]] - With the dark, serious tone of the show, one could easily mistake this TV Asahi Sunday morning program for an adults' show.
* [[Women in Refrigerators]] - With the only female Rider in this series - the original Delta - getting killed just before suiting up for her ''first'' fight ''after'' we find out that [[Samus Is a Girl]], the female Rider curse that will go unbroken until ''[[Kamen Rider Decade]]'' has its most glaring example in this series.
* [[The Woobie]]: Kiba is established as this in episode 1. He wakes up after a 2 year coma and it's revealed his previous happy life is no more. His parents are dead, his girlfriend hooked up with someone else and his house is sold because his corrupt uncle needed money.
