* TheCreon: PlayedWith. Ryoma is unique among ''Kamen Rider'' villains in that he doesn't necessarily seek power and was content (at first) to follow behind Takatora, viewing him as worthy of evolving with his technology. It's when he learns Takatora doesn't share his ideals that he decides to become an EvilOverlord himself instead.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Doesn't understand why Takatora would want to save those who Ryoma views as lesser and views Takatora with contempt because of this. It goes both ways though as [[GoodCannotComprehendEvil Takatora doesn't realize Ryoma is plotting behind his back]] and even when Ryoma outs himself as a psychopath who doesn't care about anyone other than himself, Takatora can't shake viewing Ryoma as a friend.

* FalseFriend: He sees Takatora as a tool and nothing more. Even while the two were genuine colleagues, Ryoma appeared to view Takatora as mostly someone who could enable his experiments and usher in his ideal world. The closest he comes to caring for Takatora is when he compliments his strength during the events of ''Movie War Full Throttle'', in which Ryoma spends most of the movie trying to kill him.
