Kamen Rider Geats 1x08 "Chance Meeting VII: Trump Card Ninja" - reaction & review

Yes!!! It was a great moment. Ooohh interesting, I'll be curious to hear your theory later on! That's the thing, how much info will they be able to share now if the world resets? I was thinking the same thing, that she might become a Rider! Yeah, I think he'll be back! LOL I'm thinking the same thing, that we haven't seen the last of Dapann or Mary either!!! It would be REALLY awkward hahah. Ohhh yeah good call about Buffa, that actually does make sense.

LOL more like I'm spinning my wheels :P That's what I was thinking, maybe there's something about the parents?? Yeah it seems elimination was the only route for someone who thought of others instead of themselves, hmm. Yeah that's a good point, she never did call the game!!! So strange! I hope we haven't seen the last of him too, but things could get really fierce with these three left for sure! Hmm, could be she already got her wish, if you ship them I suppose!! But yeah lol, it will probably take them the whole series to realize it hahah.

Melissa Moore

I know!!! He's awesome! Really surprised he's out of the game now!

Melissa Moore

Right?! Something tells me he'll be back but I was surprised too. Ace could definitely take over as MC but we'll see I guess!!!!!!!

Melissa Moore

Right!! That's kinda what I'm thinking, just wasn't clear on it!

Melissa Moore

Hi Spadeas! :) I know, I hope we get to see Keiwa again! I think you've got a point that they were trying to motivate him. I feel like team work has been a huge focus of this show so it surprised me at first, but some things you have to find the will to do on your own too! I wasn't sure about the parents either! You both raise some good points!! I have no idea about the parents but if there's way to bring them back, that would be a nice touch for sure!!

Melissa Moore

Yeah that's the thing!!! They do seem rather shady. I hope that's not what happened!! :O

Melissa Moore

I’m glad Keiwa was able to save his sister and didn’t die in the process. He’s my favorite character in Geats so far.

It's good to see Keiwa finally pop off, though it's interesting to see that the buckle had abandoned Ace. It makes me wonder if when an ID Core resonates with the Raise Buckle that's a 'Best Match' for the first time, that it'd instantly attract the Raise Buckle like that. Either that or it's a unique case. Other than that, I've got a theory concerning Keiwa and the Boost Buckle...But I think I'd have to keep my mouth shut on that for now. The situation with the sister is kind of interesting though. Keiwa's keeping the Desire Grand Prix a secret from her, Sara's memories of their parents getting killed by Jamato are sealed away... Too bad this is the Final Round and Keiwa got eliminated, it might be hard for the two of them to share info about it once the world resets. ...At least unless if she becomes another Rider? > 3> I'm sure he's going to be fine though, Tsurumi seemed absolutely concerned about him. For now it's time to say goodbye to Keiwa... Though as they say in Ex-Aid, "See You Next Game". ...But as much as I don't want to see 'em again, I'm kind of hoping that Dapann and Mary comes back. Dapann more than Mary, because just IMAGINE how awkward that'd be. 😂 Also, I thought it was kind of weird that Buffa would attack Geats head on like that, but then I realized that he must've gotten tired of his attitude after what he did in the last episode. I bet it reminded him of those other Riders that got his friend killed.

That's a fair point, we'll have to wait and see what happens in the story but now I have more questions than answers lol.

The problem is that Ace says that there was indeed a DGP that ended with all the riders dead, all the humans in the boss area dead and erased from everyone's memory, but that this event took place before Ace participated. However, as long as we are not sure of the veracity of his remarks concerning the duration of his participation, we cannot be sure that it is the same event which is in question of the death of the parents of Keiwa and Sara. Sara seemed to be in high school, so say 15/16 at the time, Keiwa is 22 now and Sara must be maybe 3 years older, 25. Which means their parents would have died in 2012. If Ace said true, he must have already participated in the DGP at the time, but there is the possibility that he is lying and that this event (which is surely responsible for the death of his mother) is the same that killed Keiwa's parents , Ace who appears to be 21 according to the wiki, so must have been 11 at the time and could coincide with his flashback. The fact is, nothing is certain until now.

Spadeas

I’m also very surprised I thought Keiwa was our unofficial main character. I mean he did a lot. If he’s truly eliminated that means anyone can really go. If he doesn’t make a return in some way, I think Ace will be the one to take win this thing. We’ll see 🤷‍♂️

The reason Keiwa's parents died in the first kick the can Jyamato game is because all the Kamen Riders died, Tsurumi said it herself if all the riders die it's game over and any of the victims that died to the boss are also gone forever.

Hmm…. There’s a few wheels turning here, isn’t there? So we know that the world eventually gets reset by the winning Rider… and one would assume everyone’s memory is wiped of those events - which is why Sara is shocked when she remembers. But… what if there was something up with the parents we aren’t being told, and that’s why they didn’t “respawn?” The biggest thing in the Riders themselves is that only Keiwa seems to be out for something not personally beneficial to him. He’d rather make sure everyone else is safe - and as the others are noting, his niceness is what ultimately leads to his elimination. The MC showed up to eliminate Keiwa but she didn’t “call the game.” I’m also wondering if the information she presented to us was completely legitimate. Keiwa’s the only unselfish one left in the group, and with his elimination… will the other three be more at odds? Or less? I’m pretty sure we haven’t seen the last of him, like you… but for now we should probably keep an eye on how his absence affects the others. Also Neon’s wish got intercut with her dining with Keiwa. Maybe she already has what she’s looking for and doesn’t see it. That’s be typical here… everyone’s pretty stubborn. 😅

About Keiwa Parents last episode Ace tell us that if all kamen rider were killed that round will consider is game over. by that case maybe is answer why Keiwa Parent is not comeback because if game over people or kamen rider in that area will not comeback.

Hi Hime :) Keiwa this hero... Frankly, it would be sad if his adventure stopped here, but nothing prevents him from coming back after this game is over, Buffa is well into his second game at least. Regarding the parents of Keiwa and Sara, it just popped into my head, that it may be possible by winning a game, to add rules via a wish and therefore bring back the victims of a Jyamato after the end of a game did not yet exist when their parents died. We'll see how it goes once this game is over. A and then, Neon and Ace's speech to Keiwa, that they wouldn't help him and that he had to fight on his own, personally, I don't take it as selfishness on their part, especially for Ace , but more as a way to motivate him to fight on his own, rather than team up and lose his vigilance. Keiwa was beginning to fall into despair, especially with Sara being captured, I think Ace was trying to remotivate him to put all his strength into it.

Spadeas

It was a great episode but I'm also genuinely scared that when you "Retire" you die. I know they've said you return to your old life but Tsurumi seems really shady considering they've not really said what happens when you retire or why you become digitised and vanish, I really hope he comes back because he was not only a fan favourite and a main character but Ninja is also his buckle.
