Kamen Rider Agito Ep 4 Recap – There’s No Such Thing as Magic!

Welcome back to my ongoing recap series for the second Heisei era Kamen Rider show, Kamen Rider Agito!

Last week Agito had already run into a pair of monsters that were able to withstand the power of his Rider Kick. How is he ever going to be able to win the fight against them?

Oh, he just throws them through a tree. And where glowing exploding jump kicks failed to even scratch the Turtle Kaijin, being tossed through a tree seems to have severely injured the pair as they opt to burrow away rather than face off against Agito further. And for those of you who forgot from last week, yes these are burrowing Turtle Unknown. Yes some Turtles do burrow. No that does not make them any less ridiculous.

Shouichi cancels his Henshin only to see Mana nearby having seen the entirety of the fight, and when he tries to call out to her she understandably flees rather than deal with the situation, leaving both of them looking worried and confused as we jump to the credits!

Kamen Rider Agito Ep 3 Recap – Standing Ovation

Welcome back to my ongoing recap series for the second Heisei era Kamen Rider show, Kamen Rider Agito!

Last week ended with G3 being horribly useless while Agito defeated two Unknown single-handed. And with the cat monsters exterminated Agito had turned his violent wrath upon the helpless G3! Things pick up right away as Agito completely tears G3 apart, which again leads to nothing but constant shouting from G3’s mission support about how horribly beat up he’s getting.

The battery on the suit fails and the defensive system that protects Hikawa shuts down, which means that any further hits he takes will be just like getting hit as a regular human. And that’s when Agito decides it’s time to prep for another Rider Kick. Just before Hikawa is exploded into lots of itty bitty G3 chunks though Agito comes to his senses, looking down in disbelief at his hands before he flees from the scene.

Shouichi de-Henshin’s and tries to escape but finds that he’s overcome by a piercing headache that causes him to wipe out his bike. Mana finds the collapsed Shouichi and he begs her for help which is a pretty dark way to jump to the credits!
