Ryuki is also a mixed bag for me, for the same reasons you said.
There are some parts which are absolutely fantastic, and huge stretches of the show which are deathly bland, but the final stretch almost makes up for it.
I also don't like Shinji. I think he's a good guy but a horrible protagonist, and the attitude me a hell of a lot. It's the same issue some other Riders have where they will repeat the "must we fight? I will not do anything on this battle" attitude, but it's somewhat justified here.
The alternative would be making all the other participants criminal assholes that HAD to be killed, and that would take away all the nuance the show had, like with Tiger and Imperer (my absolute favorite part that came out of nowhere too). But as a result you end up with a protagonist that may as well have stayed in bed for most of the show.
