* CharacterDevelopment: At the beginning of the series, Shotaro is much more shallow in attitude, as well as suffering unresolved guilt over Sokichi's death. By the end of "Movie War 2010" though, Shotaro has largely outgrown this, with Sokichi (A.R.) acknowledging him as a "true detective". In fact, after stopping Museum, he even managed to protect Futo City alone for an entire year as Kamen Rider Joker.
** On a more humorous note, he seems to have made some peace with his "half-boiledness", at least in the end of the original series.
