With this being in a Super Hero Time, it might take a while longer to do this… I am sitting on doing these chapters in advance, but who knows…
I was going to attempt an all-nighter to try and work on this, but that plan fell through due to me simply being to tired. ...anyway, let's get to the chapter.
Fire Emblem belongs to Nintendo, Intelligent Systems, etc. Kamen Rider belongs to Toei, Bandai, etc. All OCs belong to their owners.
Previously on Kamen Rider Hero…
Takeshi: We're on some island, huh?
Tiki-chan: The Western Isles, to be exact.
Takeshi: Looks like we're in Binding Blade no Sekai…
Tiki-chan: I'm gonna go look for help.
Roy: Henshin! Ore wa lion yo! Kamen Rider Roy!
Tiki-chan: Please be ok… please be ok…
Roy: He's alright. He just fell asleep. Guys! We need an emergency exit!
Takeshi slowly regained his consciousness and looked to see Tiki-chan and Roy were both there looking at him, "...hey."
"Takeshi!" Tiki-chan smiled as she pulled him into a hug, "Thank goodness you're ok! I was so worried!"
He smiled softly at his fairy companion before looking to Roy, "So… you don't think I'm a bad guy?"
"You helped me out and your fairy lead me to the mountain to free prisoners. I don't think you're bad," Roy smiled as he handed Takeshi some bread, "And it's nice to meet a fellow Kamen Rider."
"Cool," Takeshi nodded, "So… where are we?"
"We're heading towards the village called Jutes. We need to form a plan about making sure nobody else from the mountain is still there and we need to locate the next Divine Weapon."
Takeshi nodded as he slowly got up.
"Rest a little bit more, you got pretty badly beaten around…" Tiki-chan said with worry.
"I'm feeling better," Takeshi responded as he turned to Roy, "Sides, what's better than one Kamen Rider? Two."
Roy nodded before he was called away by somebody and left Takeshi and Tiki-chan in their tent. Roy walked over to a bard that was blind, "Is something the matter?"
"I have reason to believe that Jutes has been compromised," the bard informed, "I have heard word of an 'unhuman' in the village…"
"We need to find the Thunder Axe," Roy began, "And the only way to get to where it is, is through Jutes."
Kowashitai daijisou ni kakaeta watashi o zenbu (I'm breaking down all the walls I've built up around my lonely heart now) *Takeshi held his phone in his hand before he was seemingly absorbed into it.*
Kimi ga kono kodoku o itami o iyasu no (You're the one that takes it all away, my solitude and all my pain) *His phone was now attached onto his wrist and his Driver was in position.*
Reincarnation Realization *The Kamen Ride Hero card slipped out and into the phone insertion.*
Reincarnation kiete shimaitai (I want to disappear…) *Takeshi now stood on the ground as Kamen Rider Hero.*
Kamen Rider Hero
Nemuranai machi no zawameki aisouwarai no yuutsu (I walk alone through the city of lights, I see the same fake smiles every night) *Takeshi was now back in the real world and had his phone in his hand, playing Fire Emblem Heroes.*
Honne nante itsuka doko ka mienai furi (Cause everyone hides...they run and they hide from their real feelings.) *The game then had all of the characters seemingly vanish. Takeshi then took his phone and put it into position*
Dare datte fuan nante sonna (And everyone's got their stresses too, yeah I know) *Hero was seen punching and kicking various Risen foes, knocking them away, before he turned to see the fractured stained glassed windows of the nine worlds.*
Iwarenakutemo wakatteru (But I already get that's the status quo. I'm breaking down…) *Kamen Rider Marth, Ike, Robin, Micaiah, Roy and Lucina all stood and seemed fractured as well. Hero stood in the center of the six, glancing towards the three without representation.*
Kowashitai daijisou ni kakaeta tsuyogari nante (All the masks that I wear to hide my lonely heart now) *He took the six cards and loaded them into his card scanner, now being armed with the Fire Emblem itself. The cloaked woman walked over to him and simply smiled.*
Demo sunao ni narenai (But what if I'm just lying to myself?) *Takeshi stared at his phone for a moment before he was joined by Tiki-chan, who was initially in her distance form then in her normal form, who then smiled at him*
Mayottemo nayan demo kimi ga motomeru nara (If even now, you still want me when I am hurt,wandering lost in the rain) *Takeshi and the green orb both stood between the worlds, looking towards the six Riders and three silhouetted figures.
Semete kono kodoku o itami o kowashite (The at least help me destroy it all… My solitude, and all my pain) *Takeshi now stood as Kamen Rider Hero and reached out to them, trying to save them.*
Reincarnation Realization *Takeshi was now back in his base and held out the Kamen Rider Hero card.*
Reincarnation umarekawaritai (I want to be reborn) *He then turned towards the reader and gave a simple smile, showing off the Hero card.*
Emblem 05: Child of the Lion
"I've managed to get the king right where we need him," Flaer informed an ally via a sort of crystal sphere.
-Great job.-
Roartz and Arcard both entered the room and met Flaer's eyes.
"What do you two want?"
-Roartz… why'd you leave the mountain?-
"I'm sorry, Master Zephiel! That Kamen Rider's forces managed to get there because of a sleeper agent in it!"
-...Arcard.-
"Yes?"
-You are to find that sleeper agent and dispose of them.-
"Yes Master,"
Flaer then walked over to somebody in a red hood and motioned for them to head out, "Let's see the Kamen Riders deal with this…"
Takeshi watched as Lilina was coordinating some of their forces in case the word of the bard that was with them was accurate.
"She's Roy's girlfriend and second-in-command," Tiki-chan commented.
"I know," Takeshi responded, "I may not have played much of Binding Blade, but I did play it."
"Just saying in case you forgot,"
"So… how'd you end up at the mountain?" Lilina asked Takeshi.
"Oh, that's easy," Takeshi began, "I was at the beach, got knock out, and put to work."
"I see…" she nodded before she gave him a light bonk to the head, "That's for shooting Roy earlier."
"It was an accident," Takeshi said in his defense.
Lilina simply gave a nod before Roy walked over, "Roy-kun, does it seem guarded?"
"Yep. We're gonna need to find a way around…"
"We could just power our way forward," Takeshi suggested, "Two Kamen Riders leading a charge… I don't think the enemy would be able to hold off our side if they had to deal with two Riders at the front,"
"That's a valid strategy…" Roy admitted.
"And a good way to get you both killed!" Lilina retorted.
"Takeshi," Tiki-chan whispered, "I have a plan. Listen up and then tell them, k?"
Takeshi gave a nod as Tiki-chan began to relay her plan to him, "Alright… how about… I go in first to allow Roy a chance to get through and to the Thunder Axe?"
"...that sounds like a good plan," Roy nodded, "Alright. Let's go with it."
"I'll make sure the Pegasus Knights are ready to support from the air," Lilina nodded as she headed off and Roy headed off to prepare his blade.
Takeshi smiled at Tiki-chan and the two did a small fist-bump.
Takeshi, on a horse, began the charge to Jutes. Lilina helped make sure Roy and the bard could make it through the area and to the cave.
"Men, flank the left and make sure enemy reinforcements can't get in!" Takeshi commanded.
"Uh… Takeshi…" Tiki-chan began as she flew next to him, "I feel like I forgot something about this battle…"
Takeshi thought for a moment before it dawned on him, "This is where Roy and the others first encounter a Manakete!"
"How'd we both forget that?!" Tiki-chan grumbled as she buried her face into her palms.
As Roy, Lilina and the bard were about to make it through, a man in a red cloak approached them.
"An… unhuman?" Roy muttered, "Who are you?!"
"...burn…" it muttered as he blew out a breath of fire, which Roy was narrowly able to block with his sword.
"It's called a Manakete!" Takeshi yelled, "It's some sort of dragon!"
Roy looked at the Manakete as it turned into a red dragon of sorts, "...Hen-"
"I can handle this! You guys go on and get the Thunder Axe!" Takeshi yelled as he took out his belt buckle.
"Demo…"
"Our plan managed to get us this far, so…"
"...good luck," Roy nodded as he, Lilina and the bard headed forward, Takeshi managing to distract the Manakete.
"Just try not to hurt yourself," was all Tiki-chan could say in support.
Takeshi simply nodded as he took out his phone and Hero card, " Henshin!"
=KAMEN RIDE: ...HERO!=
Takeshi transformed into Hero, got off his horse, and took out the Axe Attack Ride Card.
=ATTACK RIDE: ...AXE!=
Hero's horn then detached and became his axe, "Ikuzo!"
"The Legendary Weapon is in here?" Roy asked, upon seeing the cave was pitch black.
"According to a scholar I had spoken to in Jutes before it was overtaken, it is," the bard informed, "Armdas, the Thunder Axe, was said to be wielded by Durban the Berserker, who was said to be a colossus of a man. A single strike of his axe was sure to make short work of any foe."
"Elffin… you seem to know a bit about the axe…" Lilina commented.
"I'm a bard… it's my job to know these legends,"
"I'd like to hear some of them, if we have the time," Roy added.
"Of course," he nodded before looking around a bit, "...Lord Roy, we are not alone in these caves."
"Really?"
"There's also what appears to be noxious fumes seeping from the walls," Elffin informed, motioning to where the fumes seemed to be coming from, "We must tread lightly."
Roy nodded and readied his weapon as the three headed further into the cave system.
Hero slashed at the dragon with his axe quickly, but the dragon was rather powerful and could tank the blows despite the power of the weapon.
"Tck… this guy ain't goin' down easy," Hero muttered, "Tiki-chan, got any ideas?"
"An electrical attack followed up by a powerful blow," Tiki-chan responded.
"And I know just how to do that," Hero smiled as he took out Robin's Kamen Ride card, "Robin… lend me your power!"
He then loaded the card into position.
=KAMEN RIDE: …=
Ain blew a blast of fire at Hero, which quickly surrounded him. The dragon smirked a little before the fire was slowly absorbed into what looked like a tome. The dragon gasped and saw instead of Hero, was Kamen Rider Robin, but with Hero's belt and phone.
=ROBIN!=
Hero-Robin smirked a little as he then took out a card with an electric symbol on it, loaded it in, and activated it.
=ATTACK RIDE: ...THUNDER!=
A small electrical blast flew forward and stunned the dragon. Hero-Robin smirked as he prepared for an attack with the Levin Sword, which was in his hand, but the dragon got past the stun. Hero-Robin then quickly evaded an attack and readied another Attack Ride card with an electric tome depicted on it.
=ATTACK RIDE: ...ARC THUNDER!=
The tome had more electricity charged into it before it went flying forward and managed to stop the dragon in its tracks. Hero-Robin quickly slashed with his Levin Sword, weakening it further, before he jumped back and took out two cards. He loaded on in and then quickly activated it.
=ATTACK RIDE: ...ELWIND!=
Hero-Robin tossed wind currents to the ground to get higher into the air before he loaded in another card.
=FINAL ATTACK RIDE: ...RO-RO-ROBIN!=
"Thoron… RIDER KICK!" he yelled out, electric energy surging through his leg, as he soared down and destroyed the dragon with the powerful kick. Hero-Robin then reverted into normal Hero and then back into Takeshi.
"YOSHA!" Tiki-chan cheered joyfully, "You did it, you did it, you did it!"
Takeshi smiled and extended his pinkie finger.
"Huh?"
"Uh… this is meant to be a high five, but with how small you are…"
"Oh!" she realized, giggling a bit before giving a high five to his pinkie finger, "Nice of you to be so considerate,"
Before Takeshi could respond, he heard somebody slowly clap and approach him. Takeshi turned around, readying his Kamen Ride card for battle, and saw a woman standing there, "Who are you?!"
"Relax, Kamen Rider, I'm not your enemy," the woman informed as she approached Takeshi.
"Brunya…" Takeshi muttered, "Tiki-chan, should she be here?"
Tiki-chan took Takeshi's phone and loaded up the chibi images of the characters, "Nope. Her first appearance is during the third chapter, when she is shown alongside another Bern general while attacking Roy and an ally."
Takeshi looked and saw the chibi-images indicating this attack on his phone.
"She ends up leaving for the lands of Sacae during the battle, so Roy and the others don't meet her until the twenty-third chapter," Tiki-chan added.
"...what do you want?" Takeshi asked Brunya after a moment.
"I have come with an offer for you," she began as she walked closer to Takeshi, "How about you join me?"
"...huh?" Takeshi blinked.
"The Lycian Army has a Kamen Rider and we do not," Brunnya explained, "If we had somebody like you, it'd be easy to take care of the opposition."
Takeshi just blankly stared at her and didn't say a single word as she continued to talk.
Roy shielded some of his forces while the fumes were continuing to flow into the cave with no way to get out, "Is anybody injured?!"
"No," a commander responded before coughing.
"...hold down the fort, I need to go find Lilina!" Roy responded as he ran as fast as he could to where he last saw her.
Takeshi rode on his horse towards the cave where the Armdas was located.
Roy began to cough a bit as he continued to look for Lilina, "...no… I… can't let myself… end here…"
He coughed as he managed to find the throne room and saw Elffin slowly walk out with the Armdas in one arm and Lilina in the other.
"...she… fainted… I had to… get her and the axe out…" Elffin weakly responded as he collapsed to the ground, "...Roy… win… please…"
Roy, dropping his helmet for a mere moment, looked at Elffin and tried to shake him up. Elffin's body was limp and unresponsive, making Roy tear up a bit.
"ELFFIN!" he yelled in anguish before there was a loud blast at the cave, causing the poison smoke the flow out, "...now what?"
There stood a large purple dragon with poison oozing from its talons. Roy then put his helmet back on and grabbed the Armdas, charging forward into battle.
Takeshi saw the dragon and Roy struggling to fight him, before he got ready…
Roy got knocked out of his Rider form and onto the ground, the Armdas being knocked out of his hands, as he slowly grabbed his sword and attempted to stand again.
The dragon smirked as it prepared to strike at Roy again, but was slashed at by a sword. Takeshi leapt up off of his horse and landed nearby Roy.
"You ok?" Takeshi asked.
"...I've been better," Roy responded as Takeshi helped him up, "What happened to Jutes?"
"It's being held down by your forces," Takeshi assured, "I thought you may need some help."
"We did run into two small distractions on our way over here…" Tiki-chan added, "First was some Bern general trying to get us to help her…"
"...you're dumb," Takeshi scoffed as he got onto his horse, "I'm not a bad guy."
"You could be…"
"...you do realize I just defeated the Manakete that was defending that village, right?"
Brunya was silent as Takeshi headed off on his horse.
"Then some other Bern soldier tried to fight us…" Takeshi added.
Arcard held his weapon in a very poor stance and charged at Takeshi, who simply rolled his eyes and had his horse kick him into a tree before continuing on his way.
"So… sorry if we're late," Takeshi apologized.
"It's alright," Roy nodded as he and Takeshi turned to face the dragon.
A blast of magic then struck the two making them look and see Brunya was standing there.
"Who's she?" Roy asked.
"She's part of what made us late," Tiki-chan informed.
"Let me repeat myself! I will not join you!" Takeshi yelled.
"She offered him that?" Roy whispered.
"Yep. But Takeshi's a good guy and we're on a mission to restore worlds, not damage them."
Takeshi then took out his belt and put his phone on his wrist, "And for the record… torisugari no Kamen Rider da. Oboetoke!"
"What do you mean 'you're just a passing through Kamen Rider'?!" she demanded to know.
Takeshi simply readied his card and inserted it.
=KAMEN RIDE: …=
"Henshin!"
=HERO!=
Takeshi transformed into Hero as Roy walked forward.
"Henshin!" Roy yelled as the sunlight revealed his belt and then transformed him, "Ore wa lion yo! Kamen Rider Roy!"
Hero smiled a bit as cards emerged from his belt and glowed. The three cards then became the Kamen Ride, Final Form Ride and Final Attack Ride Cards for Roy. Hero gave a small smile as he loaded in and activated the Final Form Ride Card.
=FINAL FORM RIDE: ...RO-RO-RO-ROY!=
"This might sting a little," Hero told Roy as he tapped Roy's shoulder.
Roy's hands converged at his neck as his head rolled down into a lion-headed grip, his body and legs then rolled up into a ball. Roy was now a chain and mace that looked similar to the GekiHammer in terms of how it look, minus the grip being like a lion's head instead of an elephant's head.
"What the…?" Brunya gasped.
The dragon that was facing the two Riders charged forward, only to get smacked back a bit by the the ball on the ball and chain. It growled at Hero as he continued to bash him with the weapon in a manner similar to how Link used a similar weapon in Hyrule Warriors. Hero smirked a bit as he saw the sunlight reflect off of the weapon and continued to bash the dragon around.
"It's time to wreck you up, you draconic monster! ...Man, this is so cliche," Hero declared as he loaded in the Final Attack Ride Card and activated it.
=FINAL ATTACK RIDE: ...RO-RO-RO-ROY!=
Hero tossed the ball and chain into the air, the sphere shining as if it was a sun to blind the dragon, before Hero jumped into the air, grabbed it, spun around and then destroyed the dragon. Roy was then reverted to his normal Rider form and shifted his head a bit.
"You ok?" Hero checked.
"Yea, head's a bit sore, but I'm good," Roy responded as he turned back to normal.
Hero was about to do the same, but saw that Brunya was about to get crushed by the dragon's tail. He quickly ran over and got her out of the way, "You ok?"
"...why'd you help me?"
"I'm a good guy. It's what I do,"
Brunya got back up and then walked off without saying another word.
"So… the islands have no ruler?" Roy asked.
"The prince and the king are both dead, according to the locals," Lilina informed.
"Would that make you able to rule it?" Takeshi offhandedly asked.
Roy was about to respond before he began to think about it.
"Maybe," Lilina commented, "I guess Roy-kun could be in charge until there's somebody else found…"
Roy simply shrugged, "Thanks for bringing that up Ta- ...where'd he go?"
Lilina turned and saw that Takeshi was indeed not there anymore.
Takeshi and Tiki-chan then ended up back in the room with the portal.
"...we didn't even get to say goodbye…" Takeshi complained as he turned to the mystery woman, "...so… uh… we saved another world. ...can I ask why we didn't see Eliwood anywhere?"
"He would be an old and likely unable to battle man," Tiki-chan commented.
"Fair enough," Takeshi shrugged as the woman left the room, "...thanks for not saying anything, lady."
"So… what games have you played in the series?" Tiki-chan asked as she and Takeshi were sitting on the mattress again.
"Awakening, Fates, Echoes and Heroes," Takeshi informed.
"Have you not played the games of the other worlds we're going to?"
"Gleamed at them, but I don't own them."
"Just wondering," Tiki-chan responded, "I'm gonna go and make sure the data on the phone is up to date,"
Thus, Takeshi was left alone and simply stared at the portal for a bit. He then proceeded to look at his belt buckle and mulled at it, "...why me of all people? Just… why me?"
The mystery woman looked at Takeshi from another room before she walked off...
*As the instrumentals slowly began, Takeshi stared at the dark room with the inactive portal.*
Embrace the dark you call a home, *Takeshi held out the Hero card and was joined by Tiki-chan.*
Gaze upon an empty, white throne *They looked to the portal, which was inactive and then slowly showed Kamen Rider Roy's image*
A legacy of lies, *The two were being watched by something in the shadows*
A familiar disguise *Takeshi turned and then saw the mysterious woman before he was again shoved into the portal.*
Sing with me a song of conquest and fate *Takeshi, now Kamen Rider Hero, was standing in between various worlds and seeing the fractures to all nine of them.*
The black pillar cracks beneath its weight *He could see the nine Riders all facing away from him before they faded as if they weren't even there.*
Night breaks through the day, hard as a stone *Hero and Tiki-chan stood in a dark room in confusion before they slowly walked out of it*
Lost in thoughts all alone *The two simply continued forward.*
"It's Explanation Corner time!" Tiki-chan cheered with a wide smile, "And today's topic is something new to our little series. It's a little thing called…"
She pulled up Takeshi's henshin phone and let a clip play, showing the Gokaigers and Kamen Rider Fourze.
-SU~~~PER~~ HERO TIME!-
"Super Hero Time is a timeslot of 7:30-8:00 where Super Sentai and Kamen Rider air their new episodes!" Tiki-chan began as she showed chibi-images of some Kamen Rider and Super Sentai senshi, "This actually has quite the history. We need to turn our clocks all the way back to 1987,"
Thusly she flew over to a clock, tapped it with her foot, and it showed the year 1987 on it.
"Toei's show Chouinki Metalder was moved from a Monday evening timeslot to a Sunday morning timeslot, which was then followed by a move of the show Kidou Keji Jiban," Tiki-chan began, "...whatever those are. Anyway, turning our clocks forward to 1997…"
She paused to tap the clock to turn it forward to 97.
"Denji Sentai Megaranger was moved from Wednesday evening to a 7:30 timeslot, pairing it up with the Metal Hero series called B-Robo Kabutack," Tiki-chan continued as chibi-images of the Megarangers were shown, "Super Sentai remained partnered up with the Metal Hero franchise until it ended and it was switched out for Kamen Rider Kuuga in 2000, but it wasn't Super Hero Time yet. It was just silly coincidence they ended up together. But that wasn't the first instance of the Riders and Sentai sharing a timeslot. Back when it was Gorenger and Stronger, they aried together, as did Battle Fever J with Skyrider, Denziman with Supe-1, Maskman with Black and Liveman with Black RX. But again, still not Super Hero Time. Turn our clocks up to the year of Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger and Kamen Rider Faiz… it's born! Super Hero Time!"
Chibi-images of AbareRed and Faiz high-fived.
"And it's been going strong since then. Though… there is a slight hiccup. The two shows didn't run at the same time. Kamen Rider was about… two episodes ahead of Super Sentai, but it was minute. Then came Kamen Rider Decade…" Tiki-chan said, putting up a chibi-image of Decade, "And his season being shorter kinda mucked things up. They ended up needing to film two intros and outros to fit that gap. Despite that, Super Hero Time continues to go strong."
She twirled around a bit and chibi-images of ShishiRed from Uchu Sentai Kyuuranger and Ex-Aid from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid both appeared.
"And, starting from 2012, there have been crossover films in the spring! The Super Hero Taisen series!" she giggled, "It's a film series that's still airing every spring, which was in thanks to the 40th and 35th anniversary movies of the Riders and Sentai respectively. Starting from 2014 was the Spring Break Gattai Specials, which was an hour-long special with the Riders and Sentai teaming-up! ...it sadly didn't last very long. With the 2016 seasons, Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger and Kamen Rider Ghost, they just started to make… mostly unexplained cameos. ...that's really kind of silly…"
Tiki-chan gave a slightly forced giggle before shrugging it off, "Anyway… there is something else worth noting. Super Hero Time itself is only a small part of a bigger line-up. It's a part of the Nichi Asa Kids Time, which begins at 7 with an anime mainly geared towards boys, such as Dinosaur King, the Battle Spirits series, Digimon, among others. Then comes Super Hero Time and it's followed up by a Magical Girl series, such as Ojamajo Doremi, Sailor Moon, and, since 2003, the Pretty Cure franchise. In fact, on October 12th, 2008, Go-Onger, Kiva, Yes! Pretty Cure 5 GoGo!, and Battle Spirits Shounen Toppa Bashin, all did a cute little cameo at the start of each-other's episodes. It's so cute…"
Tiki-chan giggled a bit as she looked to the camera, "Sorry if today was a bit lengthy, but it's kind of due to how long the history of Super Hero Time is… and as a slight apology for the wait for this chapter. Gomen, but we'll try not to let it happen again. Well, Tiki-chan is now heading off for the next adventure! Whee…"
Jikai, Kamen Rider Hero…
Takeshi: The Greil Mercenaries…
Tiki-chan: So it's the Path of Radiance no Sekai now.
Ike: Elincia-hime, are you ok?
Elincia: Help…
Takeshi: Ike can't transform…
Tiki-chan: Wait!
Takeshi: Henshin!
Tiki-chan: You just messed up… big time…
Takeshi: ...how?
Emblem 6: Tales of the Greil Mercenaries
Gabutyra roared as the Kyoryugers posed, showing Red and Black fighting Soundoff.
Hero: You Kyoryugers are pretty cool. Glad to see you got some of your crew back together.
Hero posed with Tiki-chan and Roy before they slashed the screen to show Hero using Roy's Final Form Ride form to beat the dragon.
Torin: You're pretty impressive , too, Hero. The powers of the heroes of Fire Emblem isn't to be underestimated.
All the heroes came together, KyoryuRed and Hero shaking hands before posing
SUPER HERO TIME! SEE YOU NEXT TIME!
Several things to talk about, so let's begin with the Explanation Corner.
Ok… so… that info about the larger spectrum that Super Hero Time is in… it took me FORTY MINUTES to find the date of the Go-Onger episode that was mentioned in the description. Go-Onger is one of my personal favorite Sentais, and one of the first ones I ever watched, but my memory about it isn't clear. ...see SSESG for proof of my memory issues about it… but, yea. 40 minutes to find an episode number.
The idea of Roy being in charge of the Western Isles came from a scrapped concept from the games where he was supposed to be put in charge of it at some point. Speaking of scrapped concepts the character named Cath was supposed to appear, but I ended up cutting it out because I couldn't find a good spot to fit her in.
As for why there was a giant gap between the release of the Debo Kyoryuger chapter and this… I got busy with school since finals were upcoming, I got a bit lazy and wasted time, and then came the past two days. I was totally set to finish this up last night (May 25th), but then a friend did a livetsream, I figured out how to join the chat, made my suggestion and got mesmerized by it… (the picture I requested is on DA by my buddy Orcbrother), and then when I was ready to work on it this morning, since I had time off due to being exempt from my 7th final, I got preoccupied with TV, breakfast, and then I had to leave. I deeply apologize for the long wait and I hope it won't happen again.
I don't know where the idea for Roy becoming a ball and chain came from, but I liked it and went with it. It's certainly unique.
My favorite part has to be when Takeshi rescued Brunya, showing that he cares for the people of the world. ...and, small fact, she's actually a recruitable character if you beat Roy's game four times. And no, she won't become a Kamen Rider if she does reappear.
Again, I'm so sorry for the long wait for this chapter. I'll try not to let it happen again, but I can't promise anything.
Just Live More.
