History Series / KamenRiderBlade

* CookingDuel: For a [[JustForPun little added flavour]], this one was takoyaki[[note]]Toasted pastry balls with chunks of octopus[[/note]] vs taiyaki[[note]]Toasted fish-shaped waffles usually with jam[[/note]], scored by customer sales.

* BigBad: [[spoiler: Hiroshi Tennoji. He [[DiscOnefinalboss isn't the final villain]], but he was the one who unsealed the Undead and manipulates events from behind the scene the entire series, all in an attempt to become a God and rule the world.]]

Voted #9 series in the Heisei era and #11 product overall in NHK’s All Kamen Rider Popularity Vote.

* BittersweetEnding: Hajime is allowed to live on as a human, but the Sealing Stone still exists which means Kenzaki must keep as far away from Hajime as possible. Might also sort-of qualify as a DownerEnding.

** Series/KamenRiderZiO also makes it more bittersweet when [[spoiler: Kenzaki and Hajime end up being forced to finally fight each other due to the show's time traveling shenanigans, [[RippleEffectProofMemory which they're pretty much immune to in their case,]] [[ItMakesSenseInContext allowing them to stay Riders in the present.]]]]
*** [[spoiler: It gets better however, as both Kenzaki and Hajime's Joker powers end up being simultaneously sealed in Ridewatches, forever keeping the battle royale in a stalemate while reverting them into pure humans and taking away their need to avoid each other anymore.]]

* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: What happens if Joker is the last one standing.

** BladeOnAStick: Mutsuki/Leangle is armed with the Leangle Rouzer, an extendable staff weapon with a clover-shaped spearhead. Shin/Lance uses the Lance Rouzer, a spear.

* BigBad: [[spoiler: Hiroshi Tennoji. He isn't the final villain, but he was the one who unsealed the Undead and manipulates events from behind the scene the entire series, all in an attempt to become a God and rule the world.]]

* TheChick: Shiori Hirose

* LateArrivalSpoiler: Decade, Ex-Aid's Gorider special, and most social websites let you know [[spoiler: that there is a Joker Undead]] let alone who [[spoiler: The Joker Undead]] is.
* LetsYouAndHimFight: [[spoiler: Hiroshi uses his crossbreed Titan Undead to do this with both it's poison and shapeshifting abilities in an attempt to get the Riders to destroy each other. The Riders get wise and set up a ''fake'' battle with Hajime's Joker form in order to lure it out so it can be defeated.]]

* WeaponOfChoice: All the Riders have their own weapons, usually their Rouzers (except for Chalice, whose Rouzer is only used to activate attacks but can't be used as a weapon on its own).

** [[CoolGuns/{{Handguns}} Handguns]]: Sakuya/Garren is armed with the Garren Rouzer, a high-tech gun.

* TurtlePower: Tortoise Undead/Garren's 7 of Diamonds Rock Tortoise.
