And Then There Were No Riders (そしてライダーもいなくなる, Soshite Raidā mo Inakunaru) is the thirty-ninth episode of Kamen Rider Den-O.
Synopsis[]
While Ryotaro tries to figure out the true purpose of Yuto's interactions with both present and past actions, Kai decides to experiment in eliminating Zeronos in the past.
Plot[]
After Den-O Sword Form destroy the Pandarabbit Imagin as he just completed the contract, Ryotaro uses the card from the contact holder to go the time the Imagin was to terrorize. Once at September 13, 2006, Ryotaro and Kohana find Sakurai wandering there, adding to the mystery behind Kai. Meanwhile, Kai decides to express his anger towards Ryotaro with the female Snail Imagin aiding him. The next day, Ryotaro crashes into Yuto after he and Deneb went grocery shopping. After Yuto leaves him while they were discussing Airi's memory, Kai appears and engages Ryotaro in a talk about the morals of time alterations before Momotaros takes over and the Tarōs state their disgust for Kai. Annoyed with the "traitors", Kai sends the female Snail Imagin back in time to March 27, 1993, before Yuto acquired the Zeronos arsenal. Ryotaro and Yuto arrive only to see the Imagin kill the younger Yuto by destroying the field trip van. As a result, Yuto fades away before Ryotaro's eyes. Though she gloats, Ryotaro transforms to Liner Form and destroys the female Snail Imagin. Though Ryotaro expected Yuto to reappear as everything she obliterated was restored, only to realize he has no memory of Yuto at that time and the Zeronos Cards ensure no one at that time remembers Yuto, either. When Ryotaro returns to the present, he finds the Milk Dipper completely changed as in this timeline, Airi and Sakurai had never met.
