Personality
Dylan is a cheerful person who concerns himself with helping and protecting everyone and due to this, "protecting people" is his very reason in fighting when it comes to his duty as a Feudal Rider. This is shown when he rescues the Yggdrasill Corporation scientists from a horde of Skulloids despite holding a grudge against them for using the dance crews and their Feudalite Games as tests and lab rats (this also includes the Armored Riders).

Still learning to live as an adult, his world view is very limited and as such, he is very naïve and can be oblivious to consequences and the price that comes with having great power. He does not have any interest in battling other Riders, or anyone if he can avoid it for the matter and decides that he and other Riders should use their powers to save humanity.

However, during the course of the series, Dylan undergoes numerous changes, becoming a lot more assertive and serious when it comes to innocent lives being taken and becoming less gullible than he previously was. Although his naiveté has yet to change, he views himself more than what he was before. Because of this confidence in him, he resolves to become stronger and stronger. When he clashes ideals against Allen during their second encounter, his resolve and beliefs overpower Allen. However, Kouta undergoes a breakdown after realizing his friend Yuya died by his hands, destroying his beliefs along with him.

Even after recovering from this breakdown, Dylan's naïve concerns of protecting others allows him to become a wild card in DJ Revo's plans as Dylan himself has no ulterior motive compared to his fellow Armored Riders and Energy Riders. Despite this unwavering resolve, Emma asks Dylan what will become of him after he protects everyone to which he has no real way of responding to that.

Despite Dylan wanting to protect people and stop unnecessary bloodshed, he himself isn't without his dark moments. After defeating Aaron in a fit of rage realizing that Yggdrasill intends to destroy Zeron City if they ever found out about the Feudal Forest, he intended to take Aaron out after his transformation was canceled if it were not for Drago summoning a Feudalite to save Aaron. However, since the realization of Yuya's death, Dylan resolves not to kill and not to have unnecessary bloodshed. This is most evident when he had multiple opportunities to kill Aaron when trying to find the Feudal Overlords along with the opportunity to kill Emma Tao after he canceled out her transformation when he was in Shogun Mode. In both scenarios, he showed restraint and moved on to more important matters at hand. Along this fact, he tried to cancel the fight between Demushu and Bana and later the fight between Canta (Sid) and Lemon Energy Arms Bana (Andrew).
