Trivia

• Sakakibara Kouichi, whose apartment is checked by Shinji, appears in Kamen Rider Ryuki Special: 13RIDERS.
  • Because of the hole in the newspaper covering the window and the appearance of Dragreder, it's likely that Sakakibara disappeared because he was devoured.
• After Reiko and Shinji apologized for the broken apartment window, the landlord says "When it rains, it pours." (泣き面に蜂 Literally means A crying face attracts bees.)
• It should be noted that Blank Form is the weakest form in Ryuki because a Rider hasn't made a contract with a Mirror Monster yet.
  • Ryuki Blank's combat is essentially weak even though the cards in the Card Deck provide him the means for a self-defense.
  • Kamen Rider Knight defeats Dispider because he made a contract with Darkwing, so he is powerful enough to defeat a Mirror Monster.
