But wouldn’t fall into despair make him a Phantom?
…
Holy shit, Wizard's coming to Zawame to save the day!
Just kidding, I don’t think he's desperate. Especially the line in this Episode were Yoko says that he will die and he just answers „Then this is as far as I was ever going to go.“, I think he's cool with whatever awaits him. But I think his ego might push him over the edge, we can assume he and Yoko will fight Ryoma next episode by the preview and from what I've seen from Kamen Rider Duke so far lets me believe they wont stand a chance.
After that Kaito might want to just get over with it already and advance to an Overlord.
Btw. I'm at episode 22 of Double now, I really enjoy it. But that Ryu/Accel-Dude... as much as I like his Rider-Outfit, the fact that he turns into a motorcycle and his badass sword... I hate that dude, he's a total asshole. Hard-boiled my ass. But Fang/Joker is really cool, I love that Philip transforms into Double more often now. And I totally call that he is a member of the Museum-family, Wakana is his big sister right, thats why they have this special connection?
