Kamen Rider Agito (仮面ライダーアギト)

Tsugami! Use the GX-05!

GX-05 is active!

Unlocking.

It worked!

I did it, Hikawa!

Can you hear me? I pulled it off! Hikawa?

EPISODE 25

EPISODE 25 - This is unbelievable.

EPISODE 25

EPISODE 25 - Having a civilian operate the G3-X and go into the field?

Having a civilian operate the G3-X and go into the field?

What were you thinking?!

Let's hear what you have to say, Hikawa!

Do you realize what you've done?

Yes, sir.

I'm prepared to receive whatever punishment is necessary.

But I believe this incident proves the effectiveness of the G3-X.

What's that supposed to mean?!

A civilian with no combat experience was able to use the G3-X

to defeat an Unknown.

The incident from the other day is my responsibility.

And you pulled this stunt to make that point?!

Please, wait!

The operator for the G3-X in this sortie, Shoichi Tsugami,

is someone I'd been eyeing to recruit for the job.

I believe Hikawa was taking action based on my plans.

Furthermore, I believe Shoichi Tsugami is uniquely gifted...

and that his performance doesn't prove any fault in Hikawa's previous actions.

No. It's my responsibility.

It's mine.

No, it's mine.

It's my responsibility!

Enough is enough.

There's only one way to prove what the issue with the G3-X is.

And what's that?

I will operate it myself.

Are you crazy?

You're supposed to be the V1 System's operator.

Well, about that...

Has something changed?

I've already informed Hojo of this,

but we received word from Professor Takamura.

He wants to scrap the V1 development project.

He what?

I have to say, that was a crazier move than I figured you were capable of.

Ozawa.

I'd like to apologize for earlier.

The sight of you two trying to cover for each other... it really was inspiring.

Aw, I dunno...

It's easy enough to tell what you want.

And what's that?

With the V1 System out of contention, you're trying to take over the G3-X.

But don't expect it to be easy.

Take it over? You make it sound so sinister.

All I want to do is the most that I can as an officer of the law.

That said, I am curious...

about this Shoichi Tsugami that's caught your eye.

Just who is he?

He's two meters tall and weighs 150 kg.

He has a body that can shatter stone and a brain like a computer.

Come over here!

Over here!

Come here!

Huh? I guess you're home.

Seriously, man... drooling during a nap?

He was probably dreaming about that girl again.

Huh, you could tell?

It's the same dream every day....

And I have no idea who she even is.

Forget that, Shoichi. You got any tricks?

I need something for the party.

What are you talking about?

It's for a friend's birthday party.

We're each supposed to perform a little routine.

It's a total drag, really.

How about a magic trick?

You know one?

Sunrise Heights

Agito...

Come right in and have a seat.

Sorry to drop in unannounced...

Aw, it's totally fine!

Come on, sit, sit.

So, what brings you by today?

It's the G3-X.

I know I was asking a lot...

What are you talking about?

Nothing big, don't worry.

I wouldn't agree with that.

I was shocked by the proficiency you displayed.

Come on, that was nothing.

Honestly, it was easy.

Easy?!

Yeah. Anyone could manage that.

Even a monkey, I bet.

More importantly, Hikawa... Wanna see my magic trick?

You and Taichi too, Mana! It's really impressive.

Okay, here we go...

Here's the best part.

Not bad!

Wow.

Wait, no, I didn't come here for this.

I'll be honest, I'm kind of stuck on what you said before...

Would that mean I'm... less skilled than a monkey?

I didn't mean it like that.

Coming!

Taichi.

Pardon the intrusion.

Come right in.

Hojo?

Hikawa.

So, if you know Hikawa...

You're a policeman too, Hojo?

Wow.

What brings you here, Hojo?

Well...

I was wanting to meet Shoichi Tsugami, who used the G3-X so well.

Aw, come on, it's really not a big deal.

No.

I don't mean you. I mean Shoichi Tsugami.

That is him.
