** Episode 35. Kuuga delivers an unbelievable smackdown to Go-Jaraji-Da, a monster that really, ''really'' deserved it. Once he finds the Grongi in the hospital, Yusuke transforms into Mighty Form while running at it, tackles it out the window, and then just starts ''pounding'' its head into the pavement, screaming the whole time. Once it starts to fight back, he summons the Gouram and then rams it, driving Jaraji all the way to the lake on the front of his bike. ''En route'', Jaraji tries to kill Kuuga by stabbing him close-range, but Kuuga sees it coming and switches to Titan Form, shrugging the attack off. When he gets to the lake, Kuuga comes to a screeching stop, throwing the Grongi into the water. Then he draws his sword and [[UnflinchingWalk slowly walks toward Jaraji]] (who is ''[[HorrifyingTheHorror whimpering in terror]]'' at this point), silently transforming to Rising Titan, then slashing the Grongi and finally knocking it on the ground and finishing it off with a ''brutal'' Rising Calamity Titan, after screaming during ''that'' curbstomp as well.

** Ichijo deserves a mention for his sheer dedication to his job, even when badly injured. He also is one of the only normal humans in the series to take out ''any'' Grongi.
*** Sugita and Sakurai deserve mention as well, as they manage to pursue and kill one of the remaining, most powerful Grongi without any assistance.
** Episode 16: Kuuga does a finishing move on a ''truck'' so hard that it [[RuleOfCool somehow]] kills the Grongi driving it!

No meta example, see this query.


* Merely existing. Look at it this way: ''Kuuga'' was able to bring back the ''Kamen Rider'' brand out of limbo and help launch it into the mega franchise it is today. Only a truly awesome show could do that.
* Another meta example: The "Kuuga Curse", in which any attempt at translating the series gets cancelled sometime after the tenth episode, was broken by Midnight Crew Subs after 10 years of being subbed. This even prompted TV-Nihon to resume their long-abandoned translation.
** [[RuleOfThree Yet another meta example:]] 20 years after its initial airing in Japan, Kuuga was given the honor of being the second Rider series that received official English subs by Shout Factory. What makes it much more awesome is that the other series was [[Series/KamenRider The original show.]] It pretty much cements Kuuga's status as one of the most successful and impactful Kamen Rider shows.
