If you have Amazon Prime Video, watch 2022's Kamen Rider Black Sun!

It's about the conflicts between "human rights activists" and kaijins (think: Marvel mutants, trans people, other minorities) in society as they try to coexist.

It's uncomfortable. It's incredible. It's only 10 episodes long.

It all comes down to this. The fate of everything hangs in the balance as the penultimate instalment of Kisekae Insights covers the second half of Decade Legend Fighters.

Subtext is for cowards. It's mask off time.

Kisekae Insights #69: Decade Legend Fighters Part 2

I wonder how much the RFC is paying Toei for me to keep using their IPs in my personal project? Out of the 12 episodes I wrote for this series, 4 of them were in the first part and 8 of them are in the second part. I was so obsessed with being on top of everything throughout the Moushouden Series that it ended up stressing me, causing delays with releasing stories and eventually burning me out. After finishing Soulbound Series 4 in 2022, I began to manage my burnout over the following years as I wrote Zi-O, the Sea Princesses 20th anniversary event fanfic and this series. I only ended up writing half the episodes in this series so as to reduce stress over missing deadlines or the effects of writer’s block, with most of my contributions coming in this second half. The big difference with this series being animated instead of live-action is that we didn’t have to spend money on making costumes or importing them from Japan, constructing sets or maintaining them, and negotiating schedules and pay for cast and crew. Instead, most of that money was invested in animation and voice acting, but the downside is that we can’t use the original Japanese footage like we had before - then again, a lot of it would have had to have been reshot anyway. Frankly, with how invested everyone (including myself) became in their adult lives, this was for the best. This part will cover the last 12 episodes of the series. Opening theme 2: Now or Never! Episode 13: Family 家族/Episode 14: liveDevil 魔相棒 - リブデビル - The Revice tribute two-parter. Kamen Rider Revi is Kyle, the son of Karen Brewer. A new member of the Seven Spears, Hiruma, is Kamen Rider Gaoh (we don’t have to worry about suits because this is an anime). Episode 15: Snacks 菓子/Episode 16: Got Boost 噛喰 - ガヴ - Shouma is Kamen Rider Gavv in his tribute two-parter. Hiruma is defeated in this story. Interlude 2 The second interlude was released between episodes 13 and 16 for 4 episodes. It’s a short adventure involving Veronica and James working together and, idk, sharing what they know about Hiroki or something. Episode 17: Spring Rain 春雨 From this point on, the remainder of the series is written by me. This episode adapts Gotchard episode 32. As the four Twindriver users work with Kayley and Firerose to deal with Kaiju Factor monsters, Akari is suddenly attacked by Hiroki before Gengetsu attacks with the Kachinebots, transforming into Hundred Type Three. Zeni Zi-O uses his Dimension Attack Ride card to teleport the three (with the Kachinebots) into a pocket dimension. Inside the pocket dimension, Hiroki continues being hostile towards Akari, saying that he would rather die than let her save him and that it would be better for her if he died anyway. Akari asks Hiroki what is going on with him and Hiroki tells him that he is about to die because everything he did (to stay with Akari) has come back to bite him. Akari is determined to help work through their problems together even if they are forever broken in their own ways (because of what happened between them). The two of them are confronted by Gengetsu and the Kachinebots. Hiroki says that he will decide for himself how his life will end before he transforms and defeats the Hundred Hands forces alongside Akari. Hiroki promises to tell everyone the truth about everything, while the last of the Seven Spears, Saigetsu, Tasogare and Mimei, arrive through an Aurora Curtain. Episode 18: Hundred Hands 百手団 - ハンドレッド - Adapts Gotchard episodes 33 and 34. Hiroki has told Akari and the new Brigadier that Zeni Zi-O has been possessing and influencing him since their encounter in episode 0 and that he risked breaking the Laws of Time to release himself from his control. Hiroki is later approached by Butler, who informs him that the Hundred Hands are mobilising in full force to obtain the two superweapons in this world, the Decade Module and the Legend Kamen Riser. They are called superweapons because they channel the powers of all Kamen Riders and multiply them by the power of infinity. A large Aurora Curtain opens in Yokohama, from which Saigetsu, Tasogare and Mimei emerge with Kachinebots. In this version, Tasogare transforms into Juuga instead of Eternal (because Zi-O wasn’t too long ago), otherwise everything else goes similar to the original episode. Juuga’s ten Revice Genomes are countered by Platinum Decade with the power of eleven Riders that correspond to them (including Revi and Vice). Saigetsu attempts to summon an army of Dai Mazines, but Robin deals with them before fighting and defeating him as Legendary Legend. Episode 19: Type Final 終式 Adapts Gotchard episodes 34 and 35. The three fallen members of the Seven Spears, Hakubo, Mangetsu and Hiruma, in the forms of bipyramids, summon Gengetsu and give him a final chance to avenge them and bring glory to the Hundred Hands. He is given the power to transform into Hundred Type Final before he goes to confront Legend. Hiroki manages to understand that Robin must have felt lonely fighting the Hundred Hands all on his own because he felt the same way as well fighting Zeni Zi-O because he doesn’t want to get his friends caught up in his struggle. The two of them defeat Gengetsu, whose body is then transmuted by the three Spears into the Dooms Clock. Episode 20: Revolution 乱式 - レボリューション - Adapts Gotchard episode 35. Robin senses the Dooms Clock and starts attacking Hiroki, only to leave after being stopped by Narutaki. Zeni Zi-O extracts Gengetsu from the Dooms Clock and resurrects him, imbuing him with his power which allows him to transform into Hundred Revolution. Hiroki and Robin later reconcile and they defeat Hundred Revolution and destroy the Dooms Clock. During the fight, Legend’s Zero-One summons are replaced with that of Decade. The Hundreadriver is then picked up by an unknown individual. As everyone welcomes Robin to this world, he tells Hiroki that he has discovered something about the Hundred Hands’ Great Leader, and Hiroki says that he has done the same as well. Episode 21: Reminiscence 追憶 In this two-parter, Hiroki explains to his friends what happened in episode 0 before going on to explain what happened between episodes 16 and 17. At some point in his travels, Hiroki ended up back in the Zeniverse, where he fought Ohma Zi-O in episode 0. As he eats at the same café he ate at in that episode and watches a review from yours truly, someone sits across from him at his table; it’s Zeniverse Akari, and on top of that, it’s been a few days since the battle at Ōsaka Castle, and the body of the local Hiroki is nowhere to be found. Akari tells Hiroki that he deserves to know the truth about Zeni Zi-O; as the day turns into night and Hiroki heads outside to see what is happening, Akari’s boyfriend is seen walking towards the café before stopping and running at the sight of Ohma Zi-O. Hiroki transforms into Legend Decade and he becomes a stand-in for Akari’s boyfriend as their movements align with and mirror each other on-screen. In the end, Hiroki/Akari’s boyfriend is defeated by Ohma Zi-O and dies in Akari’s arms. In case you’re wondering, no, Akari’s boyfriend isn’t identified here. His face isn’t shown in the scene and Legend Decade/Hiroki essentially becomes his stand-in. The reason why is because his real-life counterpart has never met me or had anything to do with this project and as much as I’ve put Akari, her family and her friends through this “embarrassment”, her boyfriend doesn’t deserve the same for something he isn’t aware of, regardless of my feelings about them. Episode 22: Freebird 紫鸞 - フリーバード - Hiroki suddenly wakes up at his table as it’s revealed that Zeniverse Akari used a soporific patch to make him enter a lucid dream state that she could control, using it to show Hiroki how her vendetta against Zeni Zi-O began. Hiroki asks how things between them got the way they did; basically it follows my IRL story (see #16), but after Ohma’s Day, he began targeting everyone close to Zeniverse Akari, and her friends targeted everyone close to Ohma Zi-O, resulting in both sides being killed in the crossfire. Akari gathered what remained of Girl Power and formed an army, while at the same time, Ohma Zi-O established the Hundred Hands, becoming its Great Leader, appointing seven evil Kamen Riders to be his Seven Spears and sending them to attack other universes. As for the battle at Ōsaka Castle, Akari tells Hiroki that he will have to find out for himself. It’s at this point that Hiroki learns that the leaked photos of Akari and himself on social media were posted from his own tablet in the Zeniverse. This leads him to go back in time, borrow his tablet from his past self, then return to the Zeniverse before the battle at Ōsaka Castle and post the photos onto social media before returning the tablet. Hiroki then uses the randomiser to dress himself like Ziluan, the protagonist of Dynasty Warriors Origins, before joining the Girl Power army under that name. Like Ziluan in the game, Hiroki remains silent, only communicating when he has to by writing on his tablet. When Girl Power begins their advance, Hiroki is nowhere to be seen. It’s only when they begin charging that Hiroki appears, unmorphed and wielding his Ridexcalibur, unleashing an All Riders Xtrash-powered Ultimate Musou Attack before transforming and fighting the Girl Power forces, causing another shockwave by unleashing a Platinum Charge Fever. Girl Power fires their cannons at the main keep and Hiroki goes to his Zeniverse counterpart’s lifeless body. Hiroki is thrown back by a Zeni Zi-O Hissatsu Geki before Zeni Zi-O pulls out the Ridewatch he used to control him from his body. Zeni Zi-O reveals that he had some contingencies set in place in case anything happened to him, including a spare Humagear body he could download his consciousness into. In order for him to ascend into godhood, Zeni Zi-O needed to regain his physical body and Hiroki just gave him the perfect opportunity to do so by going back to it. He places the Ridewatch back into his body and after an explosion of light, Zeni Zi-O is nowhere to be seen, with the Humagear body he inhabited fallen to the ground. Originally, Zeni Zi-O’s body would have been taken by Girl Power and placed in a tank, then Zeni Zi-O would possess Hiroki as he proceeds to their headquarters to find his body, throwing the Ridewatch to it which breaks the tank and restores Zeni Zi-O’s physical body and consciousness. But yeah, plans change and I ended up writing a timey-wimey plot, which is fine. Ending the flashback, Hiroki explains to his friends that he came back home because he wanted to say goodbye to everyone before he went to stop Zeni Zi-O at the cost of his life, but meeting Robin and seeing how he was willing to abandon his newfound friends to fight the Hundred Hands along made him realise what he was doing and he decided to ask his friends for their help instead. Because why should he give up the happy life that he fought so hard for so another version of himself can get his revenge? It would be all for nothing. The events of this interlude take place before episode 17 from Zeni Zi-O’s perspective after regaining his physical body as shown in episode 22. There are two episodes in this interlude released alongside episodes 21 and 22. In the first episode, the Humagear body that Zeni Zi-O abandoned is beamed into the satellite Ark and reformed into Daniel Barrera (aka Kuroto Dan’s counterpart in Ex-Aid). In an abridged version of Outsiders up to episode 5 where the story begins, Daniel establishes Genm Musou Corporation, rebuilds Mighty Action X in a month and obtains his Maximum Zombie and Hyper Fumetsu Gashats. He writes a wish at Ace’s shrine, which catches Tsumuri’s attention and leads her to seek him out. Ark-Zero confronts Zeni Zi-O and is defeated by the Faiz Blaster, replacing the fight with the Ride-Player from the original episode. Daniel appears (with Tsumuri) and transforms into Genm Hyper Fumetsu Gamer to fight Zeni Zi-O, tricking him into taking out the Zero-Two card so he can take its power and upload it into Ark before being destroyed by Zeni Zi-O. Zea and Ark’s avatars make contact with each other and just as their avatars’ love transcends the bounds of humanity, the two satellites reach a new singularity as they evolve into Kamen Rider Zero-Three. Zero-Three takes Tsumuri’s power of creation and uses it to resurrect Daniel as a human, just as he wished for. In the second episode, adapting Outsiders episode 6, Zero-Three confronts Zeni Zi-O and defeats him before Evol-X, which he cloned as his personal assistant, appears and takes Zeni Zi-O away. While Ziin and Tsumuri recruit candidates for the next Desire Royale, Zero-Three confronts Zeni Zi-O again; despite using GeatsIX’s powers, Zeni Zi-O is still defeated and Evol-X takes him away. Zero-Three then meets with Ziin and Tsumuri outside Yokohama as they prepare to sign up their final candidates… Episode 23: Rider 騎士 - ライダー - In the Voidstation, Shinbu Serizawa and Mogoro Kuwabara (who have also made cameos earlier in the series) are the last warriors standing after Zeni Zi-O went through all of the Shadow Proclamation’s armies. Shinbu sends off a mayday message before he and Mogoro charge at Zeni Zi-O, only to be defeated. Zeni Zi-O then takes in the Seven Powers of Heaven and creates clones of himself. Ziin and Tsumuri enter UNIT HQ and show everyone Shinbu’s mayday message as they declare the beginning of a new Desire Royale, with the Deza Shin to be decided by whoever can defeat the most Zeni Zi-O clones. As Hiroki goes to ask the scientists how fast they can get the enhanced Twindriver specs for Akari and Narutaki ready, Akari takes him aside to tell him that while she knows how much fighting Zeni Zi-O means to him, he isn’t fighting alone anymore. Hiroki tells her that this entire ordeal has made him realise that he has some problems he needs to work through, and Akari replies that she and everyone else will be there for him as they embrace and address each other by their real names. Aurora Curtains open and bring through whole platoons and duplicates of the Seven Spears and they are met by the Kamen Riders as the the Desire Royale begins. Hiroki, Robin and the new Brigadier join Diend, Kuuga and the Gotchard Riders to fight the Kachinebots. When duplicates of Kamen Rider Hundred’s various forms appear, Akari and Narutaki use their new enhanced equipment to transform into Wizard Eternity and Silver Drive. After the Kachinebots, Seven Spears and Hundred duplicates are defeated, Zeniverse Akari appears and uses the Hundreadriver she picked up to transform into Hundred Revolution. She fights Legend Decade and the two Riders defeat each other with the Exceed Maximum Impact and Platinum Charge Fever, detransforming the both of them. As Hiroki’s friends rush to his side, Zeniverse Akari tells them that hundreds of Zeni Zi-O clones will descend on Earth, but the real one will be controlling everything from the Voidstation. Zeniverse Akari is hit by a fireball fired by what appears to be another Akari, but is actually Evolto in disguise. Evolto transforms into Evol-X and is engaged by the other Riders as Zeni Zi-O clones begin descending on Earth. Episode 24: Summer Grass 夏草 Hiroki decides to head up to the Voidstation and have a showdown with Zeni Zi-O. He joins his friends in transforming before he teleports there. While Ziin fights and defeats clones of Zeni Zi-O and Evol-X as Ziin Gazer, adapting the fights from Outsiders episode 7, Platinum Decade destroys Kachinebots while making his way to Zeni Zi-O, only to be ambushed by him with the Axcalibur. Zeni Zi-O says that he knew Hiroki would come to stop him even though he knows he doesn’t deserve anything he has, like friends, family or Akari, he only got them out of luck or manipulation. While Hiroki admits that Zeni Zi-O is right about what he said about him, he is still thankful for these blessings even if they didn’t come naturally. Until recently, Hiroki was willing to put his life on the line to stop Zeni Zi-O, but after thinking it over, he decided that even if he has to stop him, he will live. After a fight, Decade and Zeni Zi-O unleash their Rider Kicks at each other and while the former prevails, the latter doesn’t die. Zeni Zi-O asks Hiroki why he didn’t kill him, to which he says that he doesn’t deserve to die after everything that happened. He gives him another Legend Twindriver with the Zi-O Module, telling him that it is time to walk a new path. Their feud could have ended with one of them victorious and the other dead, but instead, Hiroki chose life for the both of them, showing that their fight doesn’t have to end that way. Zeniverse Akari (the one defeated in the last episode was a clone) comes in and asks Hiroki why he chooses to stand with Zeni Zi-O when he took everything from her; Hiroki says that he never wanted to be a part of their fight and that they forced his hand when they dragged him into it. Zeniverse Akari transforms into Hundred Revolution while Zeni Zi-O and Hiroki transform into Platinum Zi-O and UItima Decade. Since their Legend Twindriver transformation phrases weren’t revealed in #52, here they are now: “Decade Complete 21! Ohma Zi-O! Zi-O On! Final Match Ride! Final Rider Time! Platinum Zi-O!” “Legendary Legend! Zeni Zi-O! Ultima Match Ride! Ultima Rider Time! Ultima Decade!” Although Hundred Revolution drains the Decade, Zi-O and Legend cards to perform the Omega Critical Vortex, she is defeated by Platinum Zi-O and Ultima Decade with the Platinum Charge Fever and Ultima Charge Fever, powered by the Seven Powers of Heaven. As the three Riders detransform, Hiroki declares himself the winner of this fight and banishes Zeni Zi-O and Zeniverse Akari from his universe, saying that he won’t show them any mercy if he sees them again because his universe is defended by him and his friends. Hiroki leaves the Voidstation and returns to his friends. Over the next few months, Hiroki attends therapy and after Narutaki and Veronica are married to Accel and Birth, James heads home after his contract with UNIT ends and Hiroki and Akari move away to Fukuoka so they can get away from their former lives of war. Hiroki’s Beltmorphers have been repaired as well, and the two of them are seen by Ace as they drive past, revealing that Akari’s wish was also to live happily together with Hiroki. And now for my impressions of the opening and ending sequences in the second part. The opening is basically just another tokusatsu opening sequence, showing off Legend Decade’s various forms. The ending shows Hiroki dancing with Narutaki, Veronica and Akari as the credits roll. They are just some of the women in Hiroki’s life, which really fits the title of the song LADY. I had more grander plans for the series endgame originally. Aside from Silver Drive being created from a rod of Dalekanium that would be delivered to Narutaki at UNIT at the end of episode 12, there would have been a “friendly” showdown between Hiroki and Akari so they can forge the power of Wizard Eternity with the power of love, then Hiroki takes out a ring and proposes to Akari again, wanting a second wedding/vow renewal ceremony after their first one… well, you know how the aftermath of it went. It would have led to a crossover movie with Soulbound taking place several months after the epilogue that would have been known as Soulbound Saga: Decade Legend Fighters Galaxy or something like that. The movie would have been formatted like the Kamen Rider Movie War series, with both the cast of Soulbound and Decade Legend Fighters dealing with resurrected enemies, including Crestor Calandia and the characters who were killed in my adaptation of Kingdom of Paradise (Soulbound Series 2). There would be 2-3 new Riders using a driver based on the Eldoradriver from Gotchard, Zeni Zi-O would also return as an ally (which Hiroki would grant an exception for) along with the rest of the Zhuge family (that would each transform into their respective Rider forms or one of the Legend Twindriver’s forms) and the Soulbound cast would join Hiroki and Akari’s families for their second wedding at the end. I didn’t end up doing it because the flashback arc needed another episode, plus this series was already extra upon extra (Zi-O) when I was supposed to be finished with Hiroki’s story and by extension, my personal project. So, let’s look at the subtext behind Hiroki and Akari’s relationship and by extension, this series: Hiroki’s relationships were already problematic in and of themselves before meeting Akari; he dated his first girl (Kimia) at the age of 5, married for the first time (Tiffany) at the age of 7 and had his first long-term/cherry-pop relationship (Fifi) at the age of 9. In the “original” timeline he met Akari at the age of 13, but Dalek manipulation stretched it way back to the age of 5, then he got married (for the second time) at the ripe old age of 15. Now consider that Akari is 18 months younger than him, and that an alternate version of Hiroki helped him make his relationship with Akari “official” by essentially “roofieing” or brainwashing her into being with him. Hiroki’s life has been full of turmoil and his relationships felt like a way to keep himself grounded, but his repeated heartbreaks, especially those involving Akari, significantly contributed to his trauma. After the events of the Time War, Hiroki was glad to have Akari stay by his side, even if she was mainly doing it because she was afraid of what might happen if she broke his heart again. Perhaps Hiroki knew this deep down and felt guilty about it so he sometimes lashes out and wants to fight her, causing Akari stress in turn. His entire ordeal with Zeni Zi-O allowed him to come to terms with the circumstances of his relationship with Akari, as he refuses to yield to anyone and desires to make things work out with her, because at this point, he understood that dying or leaving would hurt Akari more than it would heal himself. Perhaps their relationship persisted as a kind of trauma bond, but hopefully after the ordeal with Zeni Zi-O, they can learn to love each other for real this time. Hiroki and Akari’s relationship post-Decade Legend Fighters can be described with Kenshi Yonezu’s song がらくた (Junk); as explored in episode 17, the two of them are forever broken in their own ways and while they can never go back to how things were before because they don’t know what they were anymore, they can work through their problems together. While it may not be predatory, people thought that this storyline was a bit creepy because the character of Akari was literally inspired by my real-life high school crush (and named after her, in fact); I’m sure she felt uncomfortable about it, and even I began to feel the same way about it in hindsight (I mean, did you see Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor regenerate into Billie Piper?). But I am not that much of a woke revisionist that I would retcon such an important storyline just like that - it’s my story, why should I change it to suit your feelings? This attitude is also reflected in Hiroki when he makes his decision to stand against Zeni Zi-O to protect his life and relationship; as I stated, why should he give up the happy life that he fought so hard for so another version of himself can get his revenge? While I have explored “bad endings” with Hiroki and Akari where they break up and then get back together again, making them into “good endings”, I wanted to explore a “true bad ending” with Zeni Zi-O, a counterpart of Hiroki who let his obsession over his world’s Akari get to the point where she decides to kill him when his actions went too far and her hatred goes over the edge. In the multiverse, there’s bound to be multiple Hirokis with bad endings, but Zeni Zi-O is unique in that he knows his own bad end, he’s aware of the good endings and he decides he wants to change it for himself. The deal with Zeni Zi-O wanting to forge a paradise for himself was inspired by Enrico Pucci from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 6. He attempts to achieve his paradise by obtaining the Seven Powers of Heaven and he ends up obtaining most of them by possessing Hiroki because the circumstances lined up perfectly. In his journeys throughout the multiverse (as shown in Episode 0), Hiroki kills off his bad end counterparts out of mercy for them or shame for the effects that his actions had on the multiverse, but throughout his ordeal with Zeni Zi-O, he begins to come to terms with everything, including his relationship with Akari and the outcomes of his counterparts’ endings, and he eventually decides not to kill Zeni Zi-O, but leave him and his version of Akari to do whatever across the multiverse so long as they don’t come back to endanger his own universe. I have it on good authority that Akari’s actress/inspiration and her partner have recently gotten married. To be honest, I have never wanted to kill someone so much in my life, but I can’t because it’s illegal. Hiroki and Akari may be out there living their best life in my personal project, with their counterparts throughout the Central Finite Curve being friends, lovers, soulmates, whereas in real life, I’m cursed to never experience that kind of happiness for myself, even though I know that I have my own happiness and so much to be grateful for with my Tumblr. The sad thing about my life is that, as I said at the start of the last instalment, fiction doesn’t always reflect reality. It almost seems like I have to have had a girlfriend from high school or even earlier (a childhood friend) in order for me to live a fulfilling life, have a good job, buy a house, raise a family. Unfortunately I’ve missed that opportunity due to various factors, and even if there was a possibility of me getting into a relationship and living that fulfilling life now, I have to say that I wouldn’t know what I want or what to do - would I agree to have pets, kids or even investment properties? So now, I’m living a different kind of fulfilling life, making up for what I never had or will have with my work and all my current hobbies, like writing stories, playing games and making content. Sometimes, it just feels easier to stay single and focus on yourself. I’ll probably never accept it fully for as long as I live (because I always flip-flop between being okay with being alone and wanting to be with someone), but I do what I can despite everything else. The truth is, I feel like the game was rigged from the beginning. I’ve had crushes on a few girls over the years since kindergarten, but Akari (or rather, her inspiration) was the longest crush I’ve had, going back from 2011 to… now, really. Despite everything that happened, I never got to know her well and that honestly has to be my biggest regret, despite in Year 12 when my principal told our class that the year’s theme was to live with no regrets. It feels like she’s got a curse on me and the only way to break it is to defeat her with a Rider Kick, but deep down I know it’s not going to help with anything. It’s very sad, I know. The series has been in the making for the past few years, pretty much ever since I discovered that Akari and her 打靶仔 boyfriend (now husband) were a thing in 2021-22. I hoped that the “good ending” that was Hiroki and Akari’s relationship at the end of this series would, by some miracle, also be the case in real life, but sadly, I’m either in a neutral or bad ending and I can’t tell which one I’m in. Sometimes I wonder if, like how the Fifteenth Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) sacrificed his current incarnation for a baby who may not have existed originally, there was an incarnation of Hiroki Ichigo who sacrificed himself so that Hiroki and Akari could be together… (looks at Yui Hirasawa’s This Is It) Hey wait a minute not like that wtf- Akari Ichigo, you hurt me more than you’ll ever know and I may never be able to move on for as long as I live. I kind of want to wish you all the best, but we’ve never talked since high school and you’ve barely acknowledged my existence practically ever, so if I can’t be happy, why do you think you deserve to be? (Fun fact: I made this in 2017 as part of a comparison meme between 2016 and 2026 with this scene taking place in the latter, which could be said to mean that Akari would get married in 2026. Freaking Apollo and her gift of prophecy, amirite?) Whew, finally got all that out of my system. Anyway, we have finally reached the end of Kisekae Insights. The next instalment will cover some of the goodbyes I’ve made over the years before it’s goodbye to my personal project for good. See you for the grand sendoff. Ending theme 2: LADY

Yeonchi

Never thought i would watch Sieg started to sort of redeem himself that way. The start of, the final arc of the series, maybe. Or maybe not.

The thing that got my attention was the story of the two brothers.

And the octopus hold. That's holding a grudge,chief!
