>DO NOT MAKE A NEW THREAD UNTIL PAGE 8

This is Kamen Rider Gavv's logo. Say anything about it.

rinne’s blank stare after skebow got got killed and hotaro was running was not the best

Gotchard so far has the best villains in Reiwa

>>22639341
>What was the last kick you though was cool?
NTA, but Geats' Rider Kick with the Zombie legs and the tombstones was really cool. Espada has neat ones (with pretty cool names to boot) where he goes so fast it looks like he flickers and teleports from one side to the other like a lighting bolt, and Tategami's kick with the ice wings is just beautiful.

The new Kyoryu 10th made me realize that i’m gonna miss Omori. We’ll never get another producer that cares about connecting everything.

>>22641645
If Shirakura returned three times maybe Tsukada has another go in him.

What's Inoue's secret to writing good episodes?

>>22641639
Low bar and it's still not true

>>22641675
Make every episode end with dangling keys but never conclude it in a satisfying way because it’s hollow

>>22641639
That’s Ark you gooning faggot

>>22641675
Idk why people like to shit on him so much, Ryuki is my favorite of all time and I really appreciate the Jdrama aspects of early Heisei

>>22641688
Ryuki is great because of Kobayashi though

>>22641688
He doesn't care about toys and has no issues outright retconning anything if he think it'll result in something more interesting and that's poison to autists.

>>22641597
Probably my favorite Reiwa logo. Last three were so boring.

>>22641613
Good
>>22641639
Remove the gold retard and I agree
>>22641686
Ark is boring

>>22641688
I like to think that he’s been completely barred from head writing any Phase 2 and Reiwa Rider because of how much he doesn’t give a shit about the toys.

>>22641688
>why people like to shit on him so much
we went through an entire year of newfags dick riding him because of Donbrothers.

Donbros have the same flaws as Revice.

>>22641688
Ryuki isn’t an Inoue show though. He wrote some episodes but it wasn’t mainly him. I probably would like the show had he been in charge, less bullshit
>>22641705
Didn’t stop Donbrothers or the Zi-O and Faiz stuff he made. They really should stop fussing around and bring him back in full. No excuse after Donbros.

>>22641706
>Donbros have the same flaws as Revice.
I don’t know what shows you watched because that’s blatantly untrue. They could not be more different.

>>22641675
Character over story and action. This isn’t always a good thing, but in Kamen Rider this is the most important aspect. All these shows stories can be dismantled if you look at them hard enough, even the best ones. You like a show because you like the characters in it a lot, and you hate others because the characters there annoy you.

>>22641706
>Donbros have the same flaws as Revice.
Kys, drone. Donbros is miles better than any Reiwa Rider

>>22641708
He wrote the worst episodes of Ryuki.

>>22641720
Fuck off back to your dead general, sentainigger.

>>22641725
>anon brings up Donbros
>other anon replies
>complain to the anon who didn’t bring it up
Nobody talked about Revice or Donbros until that loser brought it up

>>22641660
Isn't Tsukada involved with Gotchard pre-production alongside Shirakura?

>>22641597
First logo since Zero-One to have an actual design to it.
>>22641706
>Donbros have the same flaws as Revice.
You really think you can just lie here and nobody will notice?

>CHEMYxSTORY 1st opening will never air or heard on TV again

>>22641686
>Ark
kek what a jobber bitch useless villain

Hideki Tajima apparently had a very heavy role in W's design department. Kinda crazy, I don't think he does anywhere near that much anymore.

>>22641639
I think they're pretty decent, but I find Saber's to be better overall.

>>22641764
>an actual design to it
What do you mean by that, exactly?

>>22641803
consume any other piece of japanese media please

>>22641806
I've never read or watched JoJo, sorry fag. Just passively aware of it from all the memes.

>Last purple mc was Hibiki
Took them forever

>>22641799
Saber's baddies have the justification that the damn Almighty Book was an existential nightmare and it's only natural it would drive people crazy

>>22641809
Yes, he was hammy and loved being evil, which made him fun to watch.

>>22641781
It will be the final battle's insert song.

gai was already getting his ass kicked and now it's a gai loses every ep arc?

>>22641639
I've always wondered which villain group in Reiwa had the highest kill count.

>>22641809
Master Logos was fantastic. Felt like ShinkenGold's actor hadn't aged a day and he played a psychopathic king really well.

>>22641809
I wish he got a suit that wasn't a kitbashed mess

>>22641623
>rinne’s blank stare after skebow got got killed
32 episodes later and still the same

>>22641840
On second thought, it doesn't matter since most victims get revived or weren't actually killed anyway.

>>22641639
Geryon dragged down the sisters hard, he's fucking lame.

>>22641840
As an individual, Giff destroyed many alien civilizations and caused a bunch of deaths on Earth. As a group, the Megid waged war against humanity and the Sword of Logos for 2000 years.

>>22641639
Because of tangential plans and class 3g, I wish the sisters had been part of a series that isn't about shilling over a hundred cardboard pieces. I like how the three bully each other... Usually with Lachesis ending with the shortest end of the stick.

>>22641873
Class 3-G would have been a better setting than "weird group of alchemists who hang around houtarou's house plus the bad guys".

Why are the Ganbalegends cards so ugly? Ganbarizing had amazing looking cards

>>22641708
>No excuse after Donbros.
Sentai (and the mini-series or standalone episodes he wrote for Rider) have much less toys than modern Rider overall though. I'd guess that's the main issue.

>>22641839
Yeah, it was "fanservice" for the fans after they complained about the job arc, but it was a really dumb idea that resulted in repetitive episodes against someone that wasn't a threat anymore.

why don't we get weird shit like the kiva "belts" again

>>22641928
Gavv's belt is Dr Teeth from the Muppets

>>22641928
Gavv's belt is seemingly going to be that again.

>>22641909
Probably wanted to follow Geats' sterile aesthetic.

>>22641938
Just because it has a face doesn't mean it's sentient.

>>22641928
You mean like the W zecters and the Fourze hamburger?

>>22641942
If that belt isn't sentient I'll be very surprised.

>>22641922
Donbros still had to cram in the old sentai team gears though, so he did still have to work around multiple toy shilling in that series. Not just the power ups but the old sentai tributes. Though I guess he worked on some of them, so that probably gave him nostalgia.

huh, no subs this week?<br>I guess I will watch Shin-chan x Precure instead.

>>22641954
Yeah, he worked with -some- and left tons out. No way they'd risk something like that in modern Rider when the toy sales are much larger and they'd need a selling point in the show itself, rather than relying on legend hero imagery. Imagine a show ignoring its main collectibles like Donbrothers did with most transformations not used even once. There's no way Bandai would allow it.

>>22641960
Flame had an emergency, Anon has subbed the episode already.

>>22641954
Calling what Inoue did with the Donbros toys "shilling" is a massive overstatement.

>>22641866
>Geryon dragged down the sisters hard, he's fucking lame.
Every Reiwa main villain and final boss drags down the secondary and most recurring villains. Ark, Geryon, Gigis, Orteca, Suel (I had to google his name because who the fuck remembers this guy). And I know Thouser wasn't a final boss but the moment they wrote him as a bigger threat than Metsuboujinrai and the reason Ark became evil, Zero One went downhill.

The initial cast of villains in Reiwa series tends to be good, then they ruin everything with a surprise boss or a super evil generic villain that shows up later. Kinda like what killed Faiz's storyline.

>>22641968
thanks ei
hope flame's doing alright

>>22641975
man these are cool. do any of the other decks get a survive card?

>>22641968
No non-amazon file? I don't really want files that are twice the size.

>>22641866
He caused Lachesis' redemption and turned both Atropos and Clotho into more fleshed out characters.

i think im ready for the next edgy retarded showa reimagining show

>>22641975
I already own the first CSM V-buckle with all the decks. Is there any reason I should get this?

>>22641975
Huh, so they're splitting them up into sets this time. Do regular Knight, Zolda and Ouja come with the belt release?

>>22642037
sorry, i mean he's a lame character but an excellent plot device, his gimmick is lame, his design is lame, his acting is average but I guess him showing up caused things to happen so good job standing there saying CHEMISTRY in a funny voice.

>>22642071
Doesn't seem like it, it's a rerelease for those who missed out on the belt and Visor set.

>>22642078
what isn’t a plot device to retards like you?
some of you faggots learn that things like tropes and trends exist and you think it makes you some kind of genius

>>22642084
Honestly the only thing I can see them adding is the Ouja Survive deck, but even that seems unlikely.

>>22642078
>Character is built up
>Has connections to villains
>Has connections to main cast
>Actively does things to advance his goals
>Plot device
Assuming you aren’t just baiting consider rope. I don’t even like this show that much I just can’t stand bad faith retards.

>>22642093
We've still got the Dragvisor Zwei that was leaked by China ages ago, given that's a retool of it I guess it could be possible still...

>>22642118
This implies those complaining have even been watching Gotchard at this point.

>>22641675
First he writes good and charismatic characters that we want to see more.
Then he puts them in funny situations and have them play off each other.

>>22641809
He was explicitly designed to be loathsome in every fashion possible, and he did his job perfectly.

Gotchard 36 now on the Reiwa Sentai Drive(r). Thanks to Ei for the subs as usual

Hotaro or something I dunno I didn't watch the Episode.png

>>22642110
If Chesis doesn't become a Rider, I will hunt down Repli Valvarad. I'm guessing it will be slightly different from the male Valvarad because Repli does have a suit actress, plus you know, the green lines. Then again, if Chesis receives a figure of her in human form, that also would be welcome.

>>22641675
>What's Inoue's secret to writing good episodes?
Batshit insane people fucking up each other.

>>22642233
>>22642159
I'm just saying Gotchard would be infinitely more funny and entertaining "Healing" show if Inoue was writing it. I don't even like fellating the guy but goddamn.

>>22642244
>3 dark sisters spin-off
>Written by Inoue
>Fights directed by Sakamoto
Now with 500% more Lachesis mistreatment and thigh shots.

Have there been any descriptions of Gavv's bike?

>>22642304
I always liked how the Alternative Driver had a female voice in the same Ryuki driver cadence.

>>22642244
There is a reason we fellate him
Shit like Zi-O's Kiva arc is simply fun

>I find Saber's to be better overall.
LMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAO
saber was shit m8

isn't kusaka supposed to be dead? how'd he come back in paradise regained, i haven't seen it yet

ill try and watch it tomorrow then, i got 14 episodes of zero one left.

>>22641799

It wouldn't surprise me if there's one in Gabb.

>>22641826

Random text generators could do the same thing of "copying peoples stories before they were written" and "predicting the end of the world" https://libraryofbabel.info/

>>22642384
/fitlit/, Desast, Master Logos, Reika (pre-brocon), Kamijou and Kento.

>>22642384
They're in a better place now

>>22642440
Kurayami-pilled Kento was cool, but retarded.

>>22642433
"Fucking kusogakis need to be taught manners."
I find satisfying seeing Clotho kick the crap out of Hotaro despite starting to develop feelings for him. But I also find satisfying Clotho's screams after she receives a Rider Kick and explodes like 3 times. Such a volatile and violent relationship.

>>22642325
>>22642332
Aren't you supposed to be banned right now?

>>22642244
>>22642261
Inoue is semi-retired fight now, he'll only come back if Shirakura's producing the show.

>>22642448
He wasn't retarded, he actually made a huge leap of faith when he rejoined the heroes and even then he still lost Luna in the process.

>>22642540
Not gorgeous at all.
>>22642545
Completely gorgeous.

>>22641706
Not agreeing with you but now that hI realize it, both Revice and Doctors have their finale plot being the MC losing memories of their loved ones.

Is it worth to watch any of the ryuki movies?

>>22642579
They're both basically AUs. I watched them ages ago when I watched Ryuki for the first time but I remember liking them well enough. It has Verde and Femme in them.

>>22642579
13 Riders, no. It's a pretty bad low effort televi mag movie with au plot. Only thing to really take away from it is seeing Verde, but he's a pretty nothing character. There's also seeing the original Ryuki deck holder, but it's not a good alternative take at all lol.

Episode Final on the otherhand is a pretty good self contained take of an AU that tackles the series twist in a very different direction. It's Inoue at the helm and he delivers some pretty good character drama all around. Really good movie, watch the Director's Cut.

Rider Time Ryuki I refuse to aknowlege exists.

>>22642567
A lot of blue compared to early Heisei's red.

If you could choose one director who'd direct the majority of the episodes out of a season of Kamen Rider (Something like 32 out of 50) who would you choose? I'd choose Koichi Sakamoto because I to am a martial art film fag and I love legs.

>>22642710
Kamihoriuchi because his drama directing capability is the highest among Toei's stable.

>>22642642
I've seen you make you this same joke like 3 times already, and nobody's ever laughed.

>>22642710
>If you could choose one director who'd direct the majority of the episodes out of a season of Kamen Rider (Something like 32 out of 50)
That's impossible.

>>22641781
I can't stand the current opening for some reason.

>>22641925
>resulted in repetitive episodes
Honestly this is the problem with Zero-One: repetitiveness. People hatw the job arc because it's repetitive. And then Gai losing every episode.

>>22641639
Based and correct <s>because of Atropos.</s>

>>22642567
>>22642603
And with Gavv being purple the final form will be purple as well, meaning cold colors again.

>>22642788
Cheaper than even Saber merch?

I'm waiting for the Reiwa 20th Rider to use Fire Gotchard against Kabuto, Drive, abd Faiz Riders

>>22642788
Better than Saber/Gotchard for me.
Geats > Zero-One > Revice > Gotchard > Saber

>>22642819
Why Fire Gotchard when Boost Mk. II is faster? Geats' entire formset is the most busted.

>>22642788
The only Vistamp I own is used to prop up a painting my gf did.

>>22641675
It's odd. I really like 555 and even Kiva which I think is a really fun ride. Donbrothers was excellent to me, too.
Yet despite 555 being in my top favourites, Paradise Regained really didn't hit me at all until the last 5 minutes.

>>22641706
Made me have high standards for sentai and dropping it after how KingOhger was retarded.

>>22641706
Donbrothers and King-Ohger were far better than any Rider (or Sentai for that matter) released since at least Build. Rider should be ashamed of itself, show-wise.

Is there any finisher in Kamen Rider you wouldnt want be hit by?

Kamen Rider Kiva E33 King's Requiem NS.webm

>>22642963
Dark Kiva's Wake Up 3 (enough force to destroy the world)

>>22642958

Agreed
>King-Flopger
Lol

>>22642792
There's a little hole in the wall weeb goods store not too far from me with a tokusatsu corner. He's had Ride Books clogging part of it and collecting dust since he opened a little over a year ago. He just can't get rid of them and he wants to make room for newer stuff.

>>22641975
i want new ryuki rider figures. :(

>>22641639
I think that at this point Lachesis is the least compelling of the sisters. Clotho having a suppressed kinder side under her brutality that she struggles with, and Atropos having daddy issues/envy of Rinne are actually way more engaging hooks for character work. Lachesis's thing was when she would or not defect but since she's done that the only other notable thing she has done was kissing the Valvarusher.

>>22642958
>Donbrothers was far better than any Rider (or Sentai for that matter) released since at least Build.
True

This is the objectively correct rankings in order of Heisei Phase 2 <br>Any contradictions and you're bonified bricks for brains

>>22643116
Build is where it should be so I'm happy.
Though putting W in C is a bit of a power move.

>>22643129
You're going to hate me for using this term but Wizard is just so comfy
Something about its simplicity and aesthetics really draw me in, I genuinely just enjoy it for what it is
Not to mention wizards design alone does a lot of carrying, that suit is fucking amazing.
W was just plain okay for me, I didn't particularly love anyone in the cast nor did I care for pretty much most episodes. Ws design is a genuine 10/10 masterpiece of a suit and I understand it's iconic and important to the West and Japan alike and all but fuck you, Wizard wins

>>22641613
>censored
nothing was lost and really it should have been an original show

>>22643151
Also I hate how people talk about Wizard like it's fucking Ghost
Also Drive is just a way better W except for Mach who sucks dick and is one of the worst secondary riders
Insufferable faggot who only slightly redeems himself for me in like the last 2 episodes

>>22643151
Wizard's fight scenes are its highlight to me. Just so well choreographed with a cool kick-focused style coming from not wanting kids to punch each other with rings on in the playground.

>>22643116
Build isn't better than Gaim nor Drive and it's definitely not top tier.

>>22643153
>Also I hate how people talk about Wizard like it's fucking Ghost

Wizard's lead was more charismatic than Ghost's, but it focuses even more heavily than Ghost on bad monster of the week plots, with the phantoms quickly losing any kind of threat but the show never pushing them aside for a new type of monster of the week, so you end up even in the 10s with Wizard playing and dancing the grunts and motw themselves around to allow the monsters to escape before the 2nd part of the two parters. It was a really frustrating and boring structure.

>Also Drive is just a way better W except for Mach who sucks dick and is one of the worst secondary riders
I think Drive loses some because a police show where the criminals are always going for the same thing makes most cases feel dumb. They really only seemed to have an idea of how to make the Roidmude cases more varied by the 20s and on, while W had a format that worked from the start.

>>22643153
I can’t agree with this Mach opinion. Can people not comprehend riders that aren’t one-note simpletons?

Anonymous

>>22642734
You never hear of a hypothetical?

>>22643286
Why would I not be able to comprehend that his character has depth? I'm not that retarded, I understand he's not just your typical goofy sidekick goodguy and that he's more nuanced than that
Doesn't change the fact that throughout the entire show he was very unlikeable and generally just insufferable, making rash and stupid decisions and being a dick towards shinosuke. He's kind of just a selfish prick.
For instance, Ankh is also a selfish douchebag but at least he's cool, likeable, charismatic etc.

>>22643116
>all the top shows have big fujo fanbase
hmmm, I see.

>>22643077
I have been thinking the exact opposite since episodes ago:
>Gets along with Minato
>Gets along with Spanner's faction
>Now gets along with Hotaro's group and is welcome to their restaurant.
>Still wants to convince her sisters to abandon the evil faction.
>They are using her to explore the "human and homunculus" theme.
>Potentially will turn into a human and Rider.
If anything, I think the writers' fail to hide their bias for her. Because I'm still pissed off it took them till Class 3g and Q3 to finally turn Clotho into a proper character and that Atropos is sadly attached by default to Rinne, most of the time.

I find ridiculous that the writing team struggles less writing Lachesis than the actual two MCs because since the Rex two-parter you can tell they planned an actual character arc for her across all quarters.

>>22643116
>Build that high
You must be at least 18 to post here

Do you think the japanese find it risible that some western adults are so enamored with their toy-selling show?

>>22643374
We share the same autism hobby as them. Why would they

>>22643374
We're just them but not Japanese. We share the tokuota spirit.

>>22643153
Both Wizard and Ghost were a genuine struggle for me to finish. They have roughly the same problems right down to a final quarter that just spins its wheels for several mind-numbingly boring episodes in a row before hitting an unsatisfying, rushed finale. Wizard at least has a little charisma in the cast from Haruto (when he's allowed to have a personality beyond "muh kibou" and KOYOMEEEEEEH) and Nitou. Ghost is easily the worst Heisei show and would be the worst overall if not for Revice topping it in terms of wheel-spinning boring bullshit.

>>22642540

Badly need a Zi-O version of Legend. It doesn't have to be a full-on RideArmor. Just slap Katakanaface on every Rider they turn into.

>>22642244
>I'm just saying Gotchard would be infinitely more funny and entertaining "Healing" show if Inoue was writing it
It would be that if Rinne was 50% more gremlin and genki, would make her halfway endearing

>>22643382
>Wizard at least has a little charisma in the cast
Imagine not liking Sennin, Onari and Alain.

>>22643385
Inoue would write her like Mari, Akira, Mio or Hiyori, not like the dumb bitch from Donshitters.

>>22643374
I mean, Rider has had an older fanbase for years in Japan. Don't forget Shin was released in 1992.

>>22643391
I didn't say Inoue had to write her character considering the fact that's occasionally already how she acts within the show.

>>22643286
Nta but I didn't really like Go a lot at all in the beginning, I thought he was annoying and I didn't even like him very much during his protecting Banno arc. Even when I watched Kamen Rider 4, I didn't really care that much when he kept dying over and over because I wasn't too attached to him I will say my opinion of him is drastically different now and I like him quite a bit, but I will admit I did only like him much more around the final arc and I loved every bit of screentime he had during it. Frankly, I didn't even think he was a very popular character or secondary aside from his ace scene to tell the truth.

>>22643382
Yeah that's the difference with Wizard and Ghost. I will admit I was bored as hell of Wizard, but I still loved watching Haruto and Nito. But I didn't really like any of the cast aside from Alain and Javert which felt like a punishment because Alain was relegated to jobbing Takeru cheerleader with Makoto (who I thought was cool but only in the beginning) and Javert was just reduced to a punching bag and didn't do much after his redemption apart from one punch to Igor which was nice.

i hate this sword but it's cooler combined with the attache sword at least.

>>22641597

I was so annoyed she dumped the Anubis Key. They could just have done a kitbash with the Anubis body and Valkyrie's head when using it with her driver. It's supposed to represent her moving away from Gai's influence, but they seemingly forgot they were writing for Kamen Rider. So, using the power that originated from evil against evil would fit perfectly thematically.

Lachesis also gets far less screentime and isn't the focus of the show compared to Rinne and Hotaro

There's too many writers in the kitchen who probably can't agree with management or themselves how to fix the 2 MCs, but can agree on the minor b-plot to redeem the eye candy henchgirl.

Gotchard is still end of the day tethered to Hotaro and Rinne and you know not Lachesis.

Wizard has some of my favorite suits, and has one of the best track records for great suits.
I wasn't a fan of Hyper Beast, the not dark enough red of Flame Dragon style, and the not light enough yellow of Land Dragon style.
Otherwise the rest of the suits are 10/10s, and I don't hate Flame/Land Dragon, just the wrong coloring(imo).

What's the gold upgrade on Zero-Two?

>>22643635
They are both better than Reiwa except maybe Zero-One.
Wizard especially is underrated (not the best series ever but better than most people give it credit for), but Ghost I think has a deserved reputation for being bad - though even then it still has some things going for it like a decent supporting cast (except for Specter). Ghost is very close in ranking to me to Saber (maybe ghost is a bit better imo) where even though they were bad, there were certain elements and characters I did like.

>HUNGRY HUNGRY TAMASHII TELL ME WHO YOU WANNA BE
Are you serious

>>22644161
NTA but no way Ghost and Wizard are better than Geats. At least Geats I was able to marathon and finish it in like 4 or 5 sittings. I could never watch till the end Ghost or Wizard. Those two were a pain to watch, just like Gotchard. And heck, I may be able to finish Gotchard thanks to the sisters. So no, depending in your taste and what you find tolerable, Wizard and Ghost may be worse or harder to endure than Gotchard and Geats.

>>22644161
What an all around garbage opinion.

i lost count of how many times gai gets his ass kicked and staggers away

>>22644175
>NTA but no way Ghost and Wizard are better than Geats.
Just because it wasn't to your taste doesn't mean Wizard is bad. It isn't the best show ever, but it is good enough.
The plot for Wizard is nothing special and predictable, but there are good and consistent characters, there are no huge asspulls, and things play out how you would expect given the characters and their personalities, which in turn also make sense for who they are and a realistic personality one might have.
Ghost has a bit of asspulls but people hate it for just wasting time doing nothing and fucking around too much, and the MC and secondary sucking hard doesn't help matters.
Geats has close to zero likable characters, a predictable plot, schiziophrenic charisma void characters that change their entire personalities based on a whim, and characters gaining and losing powers seemingly at random. If you like the suits for Geats good for you, but every metric other than that is worse when compared to either Ghost or Wizard.

From the sus arc onward I just wanted Geats to be fucking done, I felt the same with Revice from very early as well and Gotchard after the good spanner episodes finished and we have only gotten trash since then.
For every very other rider show, even if it was bad in my eyes like Saber or Ghost, I have not had that feeling since there were a fair amount of things I liked to balance my hate like suits, charismatic acting, good characters, etc. And I know it's not because I am jaded at new shit because I loved King Ohger and like Boonboom so far
Wizard also has the sin of having glacial pacing but so did Den-O, W, and Agito, so I don't get all the hate for it regarding that.
Maybe because I'm the type of person who can forgive a mediocre plot if I like the characters and their interactions/personalities in a show and they are used well.

>>22644204
>we have only gotten trash since then
If you didn't like the village 2-parter, you have no soul.

>>22644204
Geats and Zero One > Ghost and Wizard?
Yeah.
Gotchard and Saber > Ghost and Wizard?
Arguable. Take away the sisters and Gotchard falls apart though. And at least Saber does improve.

I will give you that Ghost and Wizard are better than Revice because its 2nd half was that much of a disaster. Not to mention it had infamous behind the scenes cases, like Aguilera's actress getting sexually harassed.

>>22644204
>From the sus arc onward I just wanted Geats to be fucking done
same but I actually ended up dropping that trash show

>>22644221
I thought it was on the better end of episodes but still wasn't amazing, partially because the acting is still just distracting at points and partially because I can't say I even really like anyone in Gotchard. I sort of like Spanner, but only kind of.
>Geats and Zero One > Ghost and Wizard
Definitely disagree, only because of Geats. I liked early Keiwa but for basically every other major thing about Geats, it was a genuine (and my only) 1/10 for me regarding rider. Didn't like the suits, premise, or characters and it just felt like an insultingly bad version of Gaim. I had my problems with Zero-One but liked it overall and my problems are nothing compared to the endless bitching I could do (and have been doing I suppose) about Geats
>Gotchard and Saber > Ghost and Wizard
Still disagree. I think both of those are worse than Ghost, much less Wizard. Though the Saber/Ghost debate is close, Gotchard is a 2/10 for me, having gone down from a 3/10 because of that Legend faggot who I fucking hate. I don't like to see that faggot taking the corpses of better shows and wearing their skin like a fucking serial killer, I could forgive the anniversary riders because they were anniversary, Legend is just a fucking faggot. I thought it was the highest disrespect of previous shows to even do that, which is why I hate it. I like the suits more than Revice and Geats and there were at least a couple episodes that I like and remember as being good unlike Revice and Geats which were both blurs of being bored for me with occasionally thinking that the stuff happening on screen was just stupid like shitting on Julio in Revice or shitting on Keiwa in Geats.

>>22644240
Good call. Genuinely the worst rider show I have seen and I have seen all of Heisei and Reiwa except Decade.
Hopefully Showa isn't trash. I don't trust opinions on here since I think people here don't have the same taste as me, so I am not really sure what to expect from it.
Only Showa show I have seen is Jetman and it was 7/10 for me, definitely overrated from how people talk about it but not bad.

I've definitely soured more on Geats as time goes on. It fell flat on its face with the Desastar arc and never managed to pick itself back up. The highs from then on definitely did not make up for the absolutely embarrassing constant fumbles.

>>22644250

It's cool seeing the old suits again, especially with Koichi directing with his shot composition and overall kinetic flare for great choreography, but I hate the idea on principle of shoe-horning Legend and the existence of the other Riders into Gotchard's plot midway through, and then tying that to Gotchard's new main villain. Should've kept it to another special.

>krillin kill

>>22644204
Wizard IS bad, it's just a different kind of bad. It fucks around, it does nothing, and it has no character outside of Beast. It doesn't try to make up for not doing anything by doing too much (like Geats or Ghost) but it also never actually does anything or goes anywhere.
The entirety of Wizard is the same as the last 2/3rds of Geats. Meandering, worthless, zero stakes garbage. Except unlike Wizard, Geats at least was interesting at the start before realizing there was literally no substance to it.

Gotchard is a commercial that doesn't even try.

I wouldn't be surprised if Legend shows up in Gavv

>>22644445
I would. Actor's too busy to keep cameoing in Kamen Rider.

>>22644440
>it has no character outside of Beast
Haruto does have character though - and is a good protagonist. Even annoying characters like Shunpei have arcs in Wizard.
Ace stays the same throughout Geats.
>Geats at least was interesting at the start before realizing there was literally no substance to it
There are interesting parts of Wizard that people like to ignore, like Chimera's dynamic with Nitoh forcing him to be proactive in hunting phantoms and the like, Haruto's soccer story, etc.
It wasn't groundbreaking, but unlike Geats or most of Reiwa it was there and it made sense. I agree that Wizard meanders a bit too much and is too predictable, but the characters made the journey more enjoyable than not for me, and I could tell they put a lot of effort into many aspects of the show, whereas I got the feeling from Revice to now that they are just phoning it in. Even though I don't like Saber, I recognize there was some effort in it. There were also plenty of good memorable moments for me in Wizard like the phoenix sun kick, pic related, Nitoh putting mayo on everything, etc.
Wizard is fine - if a little plain.

>>22644204
>Wizard also has the sin of having glacial pacing but so did Den-O, W, and Agito, so I don't get all the hate for it regarding that.

Wizard just didn't structure its episodes well. Like I mentioned above, rather than making the enemies feel like a threat, Wizard generally just goofs around for one episode and half before actually going for the finish in the final battle. This becomes obvious once he has upgrades.

In series like Den-O and W the protagonists are actually getting beaten up before the final encounter, while Agito just had them finishing a monster one week, just for a recolor or kitbash to continue the plot next week.

>>22644457
>Wizard generally just goofs around for one episode and half before actually going for the finish in the final battle
That is a fair criticism for some episodes, but I think it is an unfair exaggeration to say the entire show comprised of that.
Like I said, it isn't flawless, I just think people are way too hard on it when it doesn't exactly fail at anything for me in any grievous capacity; it's only crime for me is that it never reaches the heights of some other series. It's just an okay/decent series sandwiched between two good/great ones.
Beast is still one of my favorite secondaries and I had a good time over all even if it wasn't my favorite, so I am content with that. It is the same opinion I have for Agito as well, where I think it is the weakest of the first 5 phase 1 shows but I still enjoyed it. Also I think a fair amount of the enemies felt like a threat, Phoenix and Beelzebub particularly stick out to me. I do think they abuse the 2 episode format a bit too much, but I also think that Haruto isn't just fucking around for the majority of them

>>22644456
Wiseman's plan is fucking retarded and a complete waste of time.

i like zero one but something feels like it went down the wrong path as soon as job arc starts. most of the show has been kinda sleeper for me, the fights aren't that great either and gai was a shit villain. i got 5 episodes left but i don't think my opinion will change much.

>>22644468
>when it doesn't exactly fail at anything for me
Yeah, but you have shit taste.

>>22644479
It's convoluted but there is a through line...
>Execute Sabath to revive his daughter

>one magic user is born from the eclipse, the rest die
>The born Phantoms are used to cause despair
>Those with potential to be magic users can overcome their despair though, which is why they're causing despair
>Eventually find 3 more humans that overcome their despair and can become magic users
>Haruto and the 3 Mages make for enough mana to attempt the sabbath again, this time with enough power to revive Koyomi fully
The Phantoms and magic users were all just a means to Fuyuki's end, it wasn't like there was no reason for them to do what they did. Wizard's slow as fuck but what plot it does have does give means to the show.

>>22644498
*Fueki, not Fuyuki

Also there's another factor that as the Wiseman Fueki is playing the Phantoms with promises to fulfill their goals, creating more Phantoms. When his goal is only to revive Koyomi and everything is a means to his end.

Legend's merch being retail makes some amount sense but it's also fucking baffling at the same time. I wish we could get sales figures for individual items because I'm really curious if Legend's stuff sold super well despite limited to his special and this little three-parter

>>22644479
It's not retarded, it's just predictable. Makes perfect sense for what he wants.
Honestly, it's not like he was a terrible villain, he was just kind of boring.
A couple series off the top of my head that had disappointing villains were Den-O, Ghost, Revice, etc. Den-O and Ghost have shitty random guys that have basically zero story element to them, and Revice hypes up a guy just for him to be super fucking lame. I can think of a couple other villains I thought were disappointing, but those are the ones that come to mind immediately. Basically all the final villains of Reiwa suck, I don't like W's villain, I don't like Hibiki's villain, Masamune was great at first but got more and more underwhelming after his reveal, etc - but I can at least see a case for them even if I don't like them personally. Wiseman wasn't that bad.
>>22644487
Nah, people just have an absurd hate boner for it here. Objectively speaking, the plot was a fine, basic thing. Fourze or W's isn't exactly ground breaking either and people love those series despite them also having MOTW, sometimes with 2 parters. People just hate on Wizard a disproportionate amount for some reason.
>>22644498
It makes sense why he doesn't try to betray/kill Haruto until the end which is more than what I can say for other series with random asspull villains or villains that keep letting the protagonist live for no reason.
Wizard's plot isn't it's strong point for me, but it makes more sense than say Fourze or W where the big bad just lets the protag exist without deleting him - even if you want to make the claim that he needed them at certain points, there are thresholds where that is clearly no longer the case. Even if those shows had better pacing and had a stronger supporting cast. Wizard's supporting cast is the weakest thing ever either, it just isn't as strong as other shows from that era.
I just think people overhate a series that is aggressively mediocre at it's worst. But people here overexaggerate.

>>22644498
It was complete waste of time, just like the post you made to explain it. And it's made even worse by the fact that Koyomi's artificial body was on a time limit, Fueki's a fucking retard.

All those repetitive Phantom shenanigans the the show was wasted on? Literal wastes of time.

>>22644509
Sorry in advance for ruining the stupidly dull show that is Wizard for you, autist-kun:
>>22644510

>>22644512
How did you ruin it exactly? It's basic but it doesn't exactly contradict itself or anything like that. It just takes a really long time to get to the point were they explain it, and by the time you do anyone who isn't stupid should have figured it out.

>>22644510
>And it's made even worse by the fact that Koyomi's artificial body was on a time limit, Fueki's a fucking retard.
The second sabbat was to fix that and revive her with his daughter's memories/soul. Why do you think that wouldn't be part of the process and the reason he was rushing to make it happen?

>All those repetitive Phantom shenanigans the the show was wasted on? Literal wastes of time.
Literally not because they were for creating the mages he needed.

>>22644513
You might actually be as retarded as Fueki himself.

I get the feeling the anon you are talking too was half asleep watching it or something.
I don't feel like most of the people shitting on Wizard's plot as being convoluted or stupid even knew what it was about or why people were doing things, which is strange since it is so boiler plate.

>>22644514
You stupid ass nigger, he could've directly turned people into wizards using the same method he used on himself, instead of doing the incredibly drawn out shit of having the Phantoms make Gates despair while Haruto intervened to see which ones turned into wizards, all while Koyomi was getting closer to dying as time went on.

>>22644517
>thinking that /krg/ is smart enough to follow plots
Honest mistake.

>>22644523

Can be argued about a lot of Rider villains plans, idc. We wouldn't have a show at all if they just did what you're complaining about.

>>22644523

He was login/lost his daughter and it took him a while to even get to the point where he could hold the shitty version of the sabbath, it probably took forever to grow and acclimate to an artificial phantom as well as research it, and with that being the case it is almost certainly something that you would have to make individually for different people rather than being a one size fits all solution considering different gates make different phantoms to begin with. I mean at that point you might as well say "hurr durr how come he didn't just ask Nitoh to cure her", it's because it wasn't an option that he even knew about/wasn't possible at the time

Speaking of earlier, wtf was Ghost's villain plot again? Overrun the human world with the Ganmas, which just turned into replacing everyone with Alain's brother for a perfect world or something? (I can't be assed to remember his name, I watched Ghost years ago.) How'd the great eyecons fit into that though.

>>22644537
>Speaking of earlier, wtf was Ghost's villain plot again
In order:
>alain's dad at first wanted to make a utopia where nobody died but got second thoughts about it and was wishy washy about pursuing it

>the robots wanted to absorb everyone or do the same shit idk

>>22644537
>How'd the great eyecons fit into that though.
The most important answer: I don't remember/know
Ghost was such a fucking mess plotwise. At least I liked a couple of the characters, but man.

>>22644510
>>22644379 was right, you are autistic in the worst possible sense.

>>22644543
Oh right, their world was dying or something so they were in stasis pods and the ganma eyecons were like alternative bodies, like the souls separated from the body... Didn't that turn out to be a lie or something. I remember the upheaval with Alain's brother killing their father and taking over in the final arc.

>the robots wanted to absorb everyone or do the same shit idk
...I don't remember Ghost having sentient robots.

>>22644544
Wasn't it like, they wanted to use the great Eye so they were going after the Eyecons with Alain and the creepy guy with the teeth... and I think the teeth guy died. They kinda just let it go after Takeru used his wish for Kanon, then his dad's spirit helped him come back to extend his ghost life... yeah Ghost was a cluster of ideas.

Ah, cross promotion for the yearly wafer snacks, I see.

>>22644498
>>22644509
Wizard's plot so absolutely barebones and predictable that everyone called it even before the midway point, yet there is one autist who is mad at it because of one scene where Fueki talks about how he once used an non-specified means of growing an artificial phantom within himself, which the show gives no reason to believe is reproducible to the extent Fueki needs, as every person without crippling autism immediately and tacitly infered without needing it literally explained to them, because the need for literalism is indeed one of the main markers of autism.

Imagine getting filtered by fucking WIZARD of all things.

Yeah, IIRC Alain's dad used the great eye for big wish at first to make a utopia or whatever after his wife died that was flawed for some reason then other people wanted to get the wish and it turns out that the great eye could bring back Takeru at any point along side his other wishes and just chose not to because idk. And from what I understand, the movies make the plot an even bigger clusterfuck.

Oh, I never thought of them as robots, they always seemed organic to me. Huh.

>>22644516
I can't see how Decade could measure up. Legend seems to be superior in every way. Like straight up, Legend has every power Decade has and more. The only thing he can't do is summon the Aurora Curtains at will or merge worlds together, though those have nothing to do with Decade's powers as a Rider and are instead Tsukasa's innate abilities.

>>22644523

They were literally A.I.s created by Sennin. Probably had some mystical shit thrown into them because everything in Ghost is a mix of sci-fi and supernatural, but they're still A.I.s that act like robots.

>>22644535
It's an eyesore, but I guess they wanted to differentiate him from Decade. Sort of a weird thing to do though, considering he's outright a Decade ripoff in every single way.

>>22644575
Whenever people talk about Wizard there is always someone who somehow wasn't following what was happening with the plot and thus calls it convoluted or full of holes when it isn't and if anything it plays things too safe apart from Gremlin at the end.
The more discussion there is about Wizard in these threads, the more I am convinced most people think it is just sort of okay or underwhelming at worst, but then there are a couple anons who autistically hate it. Would not surprise me considering the cosmic horrors of autists that lurk among us in these threads, but it would make sense why some people just say "yeah it was okay but nothing special" and then you get a couple autists doggedly acting like it is somehow worse than shit like Geats or Revice.

Wizard's just boring. That's its main flaw.

>>22644593
>Would not surprise me considering the cosmic horrors of autists that lurk among us in these threads
Such as yourself?

>>22644600
When I said I hate him I didn't mean I piss myself screaming when I see an image of him, I just think he is incredibly boring and disrespectful to older series and thus brings gotchard down lower.

>>22644535
Oh, that's cool. I like the idea of his transformation differentiations, to looks different from Decade's just belt difference. I'm not a fan of the final forms being super gaudy, but it does fit with what the Rider is based around.

>>22644577

>Yeah, IIRC Alain's dad used the great eye for big wish at first to make a utopia or whatever after his wife died that was flawed for some reason then other people wanted to get the wish and it turns out that the great eye could bring back Takeru at any point along side his other wishes and just chose not to because idk.

Always starts with someone losing a loved one... I guess it makes some sense then, add in inadequacy from Alain being favored more (think I recall that being a factor), and I can kind of see what the brother was going for... after killing his father.

>And from what I understand, the movies make the plot an even bigger clusterfuck.
Yeah glad I never touched those. Although I do kind of want to watch Specter's and Necrom's V-cin sometime. I liked Makoto and Alain quite a bit.

>>22644604
>I didn't mean I piss myself screaming when I see an image of him

>"I don't like to see that faggot taking the corpses of better shows and wearing their skin like a fucking serial killer, I could forgive the anniversary riders because they were anniversary, Legend is just a fucking faggot. I thought it was the highest disrespect of previous shows to even do that"

>>22644612
>I liked Makoto
Why?
I honestly think alongside Geiz or Hiiro he was the most unmemorable secondary from Phase 2
>>22644613
Do you not understand hyperbole?

>>22644609
Also the crossover episodes with Decade

>>22644612
Necrom doesn't have a V-Cinema.

>>22644620
He has a new form though so isn't he important in Specter's?

>>22644620
You just wait for Ghost's 20th anniversary my nigga

necrom's design is peak for me, i can't hate ghost cause i also though spectre was cool

>>22644617
I mean he's cardboard but I liked his motivation enough, he's a nice, caring big brother. And I liked his conflict with Takeru as an opposing Eyecon Hunter at the start. He became complete nonsense after his character had nowhere to go after Kanon was saved (what the fuck was evil Makoto), but I'll always remember him fondly from his initial first arc. Same goes for Alain.

>>22644629
Necrom has the Megaulorder which has a top tier driver voice.

>>22644620
NTA, he had the 4 part bd/dvd series, not sure what's left for his story.

>horobi freed from arc but still wants to metsubou

oh come on

>>22644630
Also don't they like do something with his dad that he left to find at the end of the series in the v-cinema. Seems worth seeing where that went at least.

>>22644483
>>22644636
Zero-One has great fights and directing in its last few episodes, but the writing doesn't quite manage to unfuck itself.

>>22644624
I don't think the chest accessory does much to Grand Zi-O but the belt and the hip armor do complement the design well (since that part of the original suit felt empty, and Grand Zi-O's watch was so big it left the belt lopsided in many scenes).

I'm guessing the riders from The First/The Next. They were the very first rider figuarts, so they would make the most sense. They also badly need updates.

>>22644723
Those are some of the most important people though, because they're constantly giving Toei money.

If you think about it TTFC is basically Toei's patreon.

>>22644727
The Ark-One twist/arc is definitely divisive, especially considering it was a hasty rewrite and not what we were originally supposed to get, but Ark-One itself is a great suit.

>>22644772
is this confirmed to be true? i don't know anything about rewrites since i'm several years late to watching this

>>22644774
Covid lockdown happened which meant the show lost five episodes. It's why there were so many recap episodes in a row, they needed to fill the timeslot but couldn't actually film anything. According to the producer,
>They had written up to episodes 38 & 39 when the emergency declaration was made and further writing was stopped. They didn't know when it would be lifted and how many episodes they would get to film.

>>22644774
Yeah it's true, the final arc was supposed to be completely different.

>>22644784
>>22644785
fuck i hate covid. well this is still pretty cool. are there any clues to what it was originally supposed to be

>>22644774
>>22644787
Horobi was originally going to be Ark-One and the final battle was going to be Ark-One vs Zero-Two. The coof halting filming for several weeks is why the final arc feels so rushed and slapdash, including a literal plot device that was an Ouya voiced by MAO. It's also why Zero-Two gets so little time after its debut.

>>22644787
The Ark-One suit is the only actual carryover iirc. The summer movie (which didn't happen that year) was meant to be the debut of Zero-Two. Aruto getting blackpilled was also from the original movie.
Saber got hit even harder by covid since they threw out their original premise last minute and had to make sure they could work around a second potential lockdown happening at any point.

>>22644794
>It's also why Zero-Two gets so little time after its debut.
Tbf I feel like this was a benefit for Zero-Two since the few times we did get to see it were winning fights up until the movie. I hate it when ultimate forms start jobbing just because there's still several episodes left, so it's nice to see an ultimate form feel like it has a very strong presence.

>>22644806
ill watch the movie next but i need a break, i've been watching zero one all fucking day

>>22644803
Yeah, Eden is the main villain of Zero-One REALxTIME. Fantastic movie by the way.

>>22644794
>Horobi was originally going to be Ark-One
No, Ark-One was going to be the Ark with his own Humagear body.

>>22644820
This. The movie sucked more dick than your average Sabore episode

>>22644710
OOO had the 1000th episode, PuToTyra can be the 100th SS...
Or Ichigo from "The First".

>>22644851
The ones that suck ass are the Zero-One Others, though? Real×Time it's fine and a way better ending for the show.

>Although I do kind of want to watch Specter's and Necrom's V-cin sometime
Spectre's movie is probably my favorite Phase 2 Heisei V-Cinema. Even though the plot and details make it muffled, the events in it just hit right for me. I'd say you'll enjoy it as a fan of both Makoto and Alain.

>>22644961
been doing some illegal masked riding. <s>I'm just joking.</s>

>>22644594
Didn't know Megamind has a child

What's the amusement park in the various episodes of Ryuki?

>>22645003
Most likely the theme park that is now situated in Tokyo Dome City. I think it use to be called Yokohama Theme Park.

>>22644794
Ark-One key has the ZAIA logo, the Arkland story beat that was used in the V-Cinema was <s>1000%</s> what Ark-One was originally supposed to be, and it would've tied back into Williamson and the Jin revival story beat.

The V-Cinema in general feels like Takahashi forcing story beat and character arc he original has in mind for the show even though it no longer fits what the show has become. Horobi and MBJN suicide by cop isn't necessarily a bad way to end their character arc, but the direction the show and the series finale movie took already gave them a solid character arc ending.

>>22644595
Jesus christ Houtaro really isn't photogenic at all.

>>22645058
Forgot to add. that pic he was supposed to be smirking, but looks like a guy desperately trying to hold from crapping his pants.

>>22645058
He is very much the least photogenic main rider we've probably *ever* had.

>>22644599
Its biggest flaw is that its boring but it doesn't have to be. All the parts are there for it to be a good show, it just squandered it all with boring two parters. The worst part is that its actually a genuinely engaging show when it isn't boring meandering two parters, like in the movies and the Infinity two parters. I'd get recommended Wizard MAD from time to time and think to myself "hey the show was actually pretty good" and then get disappointed when I actually rewatch a few episodes.

Gremlin's actor being an actual psychopath in retrospect also gave the final stretch some extra depth.

>>22643382
Ghost is greatly improved if you just pretend the 4th quarter never existed and just treat the movie as the series finale. It does a much better job of reinforcing the theme the series was trying to deliver, even if >ghost can't eat dinner gets memed a lot. Its a bad show, but at least its heart is in the right place even when it fumbles, and it has some pretty genuinely good moments (Alain arc and Movie for me). Revice I liked a handful of episodes and the V-Cinema, but more because of the quality of the production side rather than the writing, and is a show where it feels like the writer has active disdain for the audience.

>>22645066
Fucking hell as terrible as Ikki is for being a cardboard of nothingness, at least he has his looks (which is ironic considering I once complained that the only good thing about Ikki is his good look)

I can only wonder if I'll like Houtaro in the future because he is the absolute bottom of the list for main Riders (Kuuga - Gotchard) for me.

How would TakaHACKshi know? Takahashi has never seen the original Rider show so he wouldn't know. Everything he knows about Kamen Rider is from internet memes as Geats has demonstrated. To him Rider is just another tokusatsu franchise.

We can all agree Ex-Aid is out of here right?

Giff at least had a neat voice

>>22645601
i would say so, he was losing before he acquired hiden and then he was vastly outnumbered after. didn't feel like much of a villain just a retard.

>>22645398
also, she's a legit cutie compared to Rinne or Renge's actresses. Atropos' is still too young and Clotho could be the next face capture actress for Mileena in MKTwo.

>>22645596
Bandai wanted another Zi-O in terms of sales and Toei has been chasing that since Reiwa and failing at it. Gotchard's card gimmick was predetermined and pushed on Minato since he a newb producer.

>>22645622
My favorite Gotchard character is Lachesis but I honestly stopped this forced silly rivalry. No need to compare actresses' looks.

>>22645635
> Bandai wanted another Zi-O in terms of sales
They don’t.
They had low expectations for Zi-O to begin with and the declining sales is normal since it was high for so long.
We’re not at Sentai level yet

Change the filename next time faggot.jpg

>>22645704
I love this ugly gremlin.

>>22645729
Edgy.

>>22645697
You are overlooking the fact despite their lowered expectations: on the ground it sold like gangbusters (>>22645219) and was the best selling line ever. All the stuff like the cards and the nostalgia pandering in Gotchard are a means to juice the sales back to those highs.

>>22645594
Reiyo needs to work on her nonexistent acting skills rather than promoting her show on social media.

>>22645738
all the nostalgia pandering is literally because decade had cards too so its le funny joke
also every single previous reiwa show also has nostalgiawank legendary rider toys, gotchard just went harder because of the card connection
also your theory is extra fucking retarded because they would have been nostalgiawanking the entirety of reiwa, namely in revice for the 50th if they so desperately wanted another zi-o

>>22645738
They initially expected Zero-One to do better than Zi-O (and Zi-O to do worse than Build), but outside of that they never had expectations of getting back to the Zi-O highs, at least not in their financial reports.

I do think they realize now they'd need another Legend Rider series to do that, but then are clashing with Toei that wants to stay with the annual standalone shows. I feel like we've had various compromises every year since Revice (likely the first toyline made after they saw Zero-One failed to grow from Zi-O's numbers like they initially expected) due to that (Rider the animal x rider theme for the collectibles in Revice, which were advertised with the animal's name; or Geats having a big legend rider toyline with legend buckles that only got advertised in a movie and HBV) and now we have Legend's special and limited participation in Gotchard. However, Bandai seems to realize these half-baked efforts won't bring them back to Zi-O numbers and never have listed expectations that high again in their financial reports.

You're forgetting that Revice is the goddamn 50th anniversary show.

Are you really this much of a newfag?

>>22645800
Revice forgot it was the goddamn 50th anniversary show

Isn't the point of being a writer to entertain yourself with the idea of something you aren't or don't have?

Such as, "Man, it would be nice to have a big family."

>>22645808
Right Kinoshita is a hack, the toyline was an anniversary inspired toyline that the writers seems to have paid only lip serivce to. It could have been so much more if he had focused on that instead of his OCs.

>>22645800
>You're forgetting that Revice is the goddamn 50th anniversary show.
And why couldn't it use the Rider motifs openly and had to place them bellow animals? It's that part that makes me feel it was a compromise. Especially when you had some Bandai advertising pamphlets with the Riders,but they weren't in the vistamp names or even the Vistamp boxes.

>Are you really this much of a newfag?
The last time we got the Legend items separate from the main toyline used in a movie for a standard show had been Ex-Aid x Build. Zero-One, Saber and even Revice didn't do it. And even Ex-Aid x Build was just a belt swap. You'd need to go back to Ghost for the last time it had been done with actual designed forms like Geats did. That's what I'm pointing out. Saber had legend books in the toyline, but they weren't used anywhere and had no form designs for example.

>>22645826
The anniversary aspect of Revice's toyline that the show downplayed is truly mystifying. But I guess there was a lot of rewrites bts. The anniversary aspect probably got dropped by Kinoshita.

>>22645808
>>22645821
not every Anniversary show is gonna be like Decade and Zi-O newfags
 Revice get shit on for this when Agito, Kabuto, Fourze, Gaim and Ex-Aid were the same

>>22645855
None of those had a toyline that screams Legend Rider only to get those aspects minimized in the show though.

>>22645860
The BTS with Revice is truly mystifying even to this day.

And given how Kinoshita/Mochizuki shit the bed, maybe embracing the anniversary RIder aspect and not more Sakura pandering would have been better. It seems like more creative freedom for the writer isn't always a good thing.

>>22645488
By deleting Ex-Aid we're getting rid of Takahashi in the main shows, you bet I'm agreeing.

>>22645488
Build brought in droves of fags who put it on this massive undeserved pedestal so erasing it from the timeline completely can do nothing but good.

>>22645877
Honestly no clue why you WOULDNT go all out anniversary shenanigans for a 50th anniversary. That’s a pretty fucking big deal and we basically have nothing to show for it, celebration wise.

Not worse than people who started with Geats.

>>22645978

Faiz is a good show with fantastic fights and aesthetics, but whenever people praise it really highly sometimes I feel like we watched different shows. Those early 20s or so episodes where it's just dedicated to the most retarded love triangles ever are absolutely terrible and basically everything involving Delta fucking sucks. Maybe I should rewatch it.

>>22645178
Why not The First first? Or is this because The Next was the first SHF and The First came slightly after?

do I watch ex-aid, build or drive again i havent seen them since they aired

>>22646007
I finally watched Faiz earlier this year and it definitely has some goofy moments, but I thought it was fairly solid overall. The MISUNDERSTANDINGS people bitch about kind of make sense in context because all of the main cast are teenager and/or fundamentally broken/twisted people. Yes, many of the conflicts could have been easily resolved if everyone just sat down and hashed it out, but that's really the ultimate tragedy of it all, isn't it?

Drive, ex-aid, and build are the peak of Heisei. You know it's true

Kuuga, Agito, and Ryuki are the peak of Heisei. You know it's true.

>>22646011
>Or is this because The Next was the first SHF
Exactly, the mold are the same anyway so we'll get The First version sooner or later.

>>22645941
Now, show me the designs for all of these.

Geats actually had designs for basically all Legend Rider Buckles in spite of basically only one being made into a real prop, IIRC (not counting the Revi/Vice forms from the movie which were Core IDs, not buckles). They clearly have been investing more into Legend Rider stuff in spite of Toei itself being reluctant to push it in a bigger way.

>>22646099
>They clearly have been investing more into Legend Rider stuff
Gaim, Ghost, Ex-Aid and Build all had more effort put into their concept-only Legend Rider forms than Geats.

>>22645488
If Ex-Aid never existed we'd be in a golden age right now

>>22646099
I don't remember a single Legend Rider buckle design, but I do remember the toy jingles being boring as hell. I do agree Revice on Geats buckle things looked good in that one movie, but not the Geats riders. At least the Saber books had narration of each rider's story summarized when you opened it.

>>22646137
They only made one physically for Ryuki for the Hyper Battle Video, but they all had designs, even 3 Showa Riders and then all main Heisei and Reiwa Riders up to that point.

>>22646087
It's gonna be P-Bandai as well wtf T_T

>>22646099
Didn't saber's have design art? They had a web simulator with a bunch of concept designs for the SG and GP books (I still wish we'd gotten more in DX, I'm one of the few that really liked the WRB's visual designs), were there any for the Legend Riders?

future Gavv press meeting:
>"And for the first time ever, we have decided that there will be no bike action in this rider series. Much like Precure this year, we will opt for chase action sequences where our riders run to catch the villains. No bikes!"

>>22646160
i finished zero one yesterday and i swear in the whole season there were only two bike scenes

>>22646159
Actually lemme clarify that, I know they're unpopular but I've always loved the WRB's in general, the art design is just one factor, though I think most can admit the art is at least cool lol

>>22646159
>>22646164
The WRB cover art and concept for showing the forms were great. They only go to shit when placed on the belt.

>>22646160
The twist is that the bikes will be actual bicycles.

>>22646181
That's not a twist, Device already did that

>>22646175
I heard worse the year after (Revice) so I've warned up to Saber's jingles a fair bit, but yeah I can definitely admit most of the multi-book combos are a bit of a mess auditorially of overlaying sounds. And then ones like King Lion Daisenki I just never liked lol

>>22646187
It's true, we saw Ikki's bicycle more than we did the hoverbike that blew most of their budget, for obvious reasons.

I feel like we gonna get a berserk form again for Gavv. It already been 3 years since the last one.

anyone got that picture of the blade OP and mutsuki drinking milk

>>22646159
It had a form simulator, but Saber's didn't include the Legend Rider books there. They just didn't bother designing them for Saber or Zero-One in spite of still releasing the legend rider collectibles.

>>22646207
Saber's jingles had the benefit of being voiced by musicians who have nice voices. Why they used a comedian who sounded like shit for Revice's is beyond me.

>>22646337
Or why they used Monkey Majik to voice the progrise keys. The only good sounding toys have been the Saber and Geats.

Hey /krg/. Haven't been here for a decade or so.
Went through the OP looking for something, couldn't quite find it since the links changed.
Do you guys not have the Kenzaki_why.rm on the mega anymore?
Don't ask why I need it.

>>22646388
>Or why they used Monkey Majik to voice the progrise keys.
retard

>Start watching saber expecting the worst season as /krg/ says
>It's the most kino shit we had in years
What the fuck is wrong with you /krg/?

>>22646485
Shitposting and people that unironically believed the shitposting

>>22646485
Most of the fandom wrote the show off either the second the staff was announced (especially the SEAs, who have a borderline irrational hatred towards Ghost) or after the first few episodes (which were the worst part of the show, and as we have learned with pretty much every other Reiwa series, first impressions matter the most to the majority of the audience).

>>22646485
Saber has dedicated shitposters that say everything about it is bad when that isn't the case in the slightest. It ended up having so much going for it over time plus having one of the best V-Cinexts out there.

>>22645488
Fuck no, faiz goes and it's not even a contest. The worst Phase 1 heisei show.

>>22646485
bait. /krg/ dickrides the show so hard. moreso than most places

>going to other places for Rider discussion

>>22646485
It really takes a while to get going, which isn't very good for most people.

>>22646485
Bad first quarter impacted by COVID. The way the WRBs never shut the fuck up during transformations is also off-putting for many. Even in spite of those things, I agree, Saber was much better than what has come since.

>>22646576
>The way the WRBs never shut the fuck up during transformations is also off-putting for many.
They dropped it after the Wonder Combos but I did not like the jingles being a song + booming voice "Reading" the lyrics https://youtu.be/rHReDe1IJtY

>>22646595
IMO the later WRB callouts were honestly pretty cool. Great sounds too.

>>22646601
>Great sounds too.
Most of the toys had great standby sounds. Primitive probably has the best one.

>>22646605
King Lion DaiSenki is the one that pops up in my head when I think of Saber. Also that submarine ping laden standby for Durandal's final attack.

>sentai sixth is just a fat fuck in a jumpsuit
This shit is genuinely embarrassing

>>22646625
He's not even that fat, just puffy.
And this isn't even KR related.

>>22646240
Gavv's Berserker form happens when he enters sugar high mode

Power-ups for Rinne and Spanner confirmed

>>22646664
It's practically a given, considering non main Riders now are relegated to P-Bandai. The only question is which suit will be kitbashed. Wind will likely be for Majade.

>>22646625
kindly fuckoff seething saborefaggot :)

Seems kamen rider related to me.


Favorite Less-Popular series

>Even a salaryman can defend the peace!
been watching Dai Guard and this show is really fucking good, looking for more /m/ anime that aren't as talked about anymore. Or just post about Dai Guard

>>22641478
Future GPX Racing Formula. I never really seen anyone discuss this but I got really into lately.

>>22641483
Funnily enough, I also watched Cyber Formula this month.

>>22641484
Are you that guy who posted it in the backlog thread when I was too? I suggest Giant Gorg then.

>>22641478
Da-Guard comes up now and again. Usually with kind and fond words. It was a good show.

>>22641491
Correct. For Fukuda's directional debut series, I ended up enjoying the TV series more than I thought I would. Hayato was a good protagonist. I'll put Giant Gorg in my future watchlist, just need to find the Blu-ray rips later.

>>22641478
Generator Gawl - it's one of those bizarre late 90s TV shows that was dismissed at the time when it came over here, but has remarkably strong animation and storyboarding, and a pretty cool time travel plot. The OP is pretty universally loved though. It's like Guyver in being a dark biological henshin hero kind of thing.

https://youtu.be/gYc0wncq5Ow?si=-tZ<wbr>Qz_olcfQyFH8n

>>22641506
There's nothing bizarre about it.

>>22641506
>>22641515
I thought it was neat. But very much one of those shows that really could have used a second cour just to let things breath more. Pretty sweet designs though.

>>22641515
>toku parody episode
Yeah, that's par for the course.
>>22641518
I disagree, the show was short and sweet because the plot was tight with no loose ends, extending it would just make it seem bloated with episodes that don't really serve any purpose. Don't get me wrong, I would love more Gawl but I'm fine with what we got.

Tenamonya Voyagers.
A moronic teacher, a promising athlete and a wily excommunicated space kingpin try to find their way back to earth.
If this hadn't come out right as the age of (non-franchise) OVAs was coming to an end, it'd probably be considered an essential classic in the same league as Patlabor or Bubblegum Crisis.

>>22641522
>make it seem bloated with episodes that don't really serve any purpose.
The purpose would be a combination of simple entertainment as well as establishing the status quo and relationships better so shit hits harder when we get to the climax.

People don't talk about Galaxy Railways that much. I think that's kind of a shame. I think it's pretty good.

Also Ozma. That kind of got some attention when it was airing but I don't remember hearing much since.

>>22641526
>establishing the status quo and relationships better so shit hits harder when we get to the climax
I feel like that would give away the twist faster than it already did, there's lots of hints and foreshadowing that might get a bit on the nose if the second act gets extended. More episodes with the characters simply interacting would be nice though I agree.

>>22641478
This show had a pretty kickass OST. Damn shame soundtrack 2 isn’t available anywhere online though.

>>22641506
Wish it was 26 episodes also rec thread

>>22641478
A long while back I watched through all of the first Giant Saver (Mostly cause I thought the suits looked cool).
While things like the sound effects and many of the mecha fights were mediocre to bad, I enjoyed seeing the fight cheorgraphy and storylines improve as the show went on.
Pretty good for something I assume had half the budget of your average Sentai/Rider series.

>>22641522
Mc and tsundere dmc didn't end up together or kiss. that's the loose end

>>22641522
I found the pacing and the general tone of it to kind of strange - not in a bad way - but it has a pretty unique voice in my opinion, the Toku parody episode went beyond just that and felt totally surreal - breaking from an intense action scene to a crowd cheering for Gawl transforming into a bio horror monster and literally flying. The rhythm of the boards, how long or shots would be held, etc was very unique as well in general.

>>22641525
Shinbo made some pretty amazing OVAs in the 90s, Yuna, Yamamoto Yohko and Polymar were all great as well.

>>22641478
If there's no such a thing as lying in the name of truth, then love and be loved. No matter what hardships may come, you shall not be separated indefinitely.

>>22641478
Webdiver. Aside from the bad CGI, it's got a good story and cool designs. Cybercop is pretty cool too; the suits remind me a lot of Virus Buster Serge (I wonder if the two were going to be related like how Metal Jack was going to be a Cybercop sequel).
>>22641506
Is it good? I always thought it was one of those painful pseudointellectual shows that has too much fanservice.
>>22641528
I loved Galaxy Railways. It was so cool seeing the non-999 trains.
>>22641530
Ozma was a decent short watch. It was amusing seeing not-Harlock in a Char mask.

>>22641620
>Webdiver
Are you going to shill this shit in every thread?

>>22641549
https://nyaa.si/view/1430363
It'll take you a bit, but it should work.

>>22641627
It fit the bill for this thread, so I posted about it here. It's one of my favourite Yuusha-style shows (a lot better than Raijin-oh and Might Gaine), so I'll mention it when discussing good kid mecha. Heaven forbid we talk about something other than G-Witch and UC Gundam.

>>22641478
Given how much of a cult classic Giant Robo The Animation is, one would expected Tetsujin 28 (2004) to be on the same line, but I rarely see people ever mention it

>>22641701
Boring slogs with a boring plot and characters. An overall waste of time and style over substance.

>>22644102
Used to be more popular about 10 years ago. But it was cursed for being trapped into standard definition hell.

I thought it was neat. Spooky mecha isn't common.

Not as old as Dai Guard, and much more well known on /m/ for oldfags, but still, for the few of you who don't know about Majestic Prince...

Watch Majestic Prince. It's Studio Orange, the guys who did Trigun and Beastars and Houseki no Kuni. It's some of the most beautifully choreographed mech fights in a long ass time. And as an added bonus, it somehow makes Hirai-face work.

>>22646443
MJP seems to be decently well known. It's just been a while since it aired and even SRW 30 is on the old side now (and not the most exciting game in the series.) For what it's worth I thought the show was terrific.

>>22641478
Granbelm's such a visually cool fucking show, I love it so much. It's such a colourful fucking show, I think every main character has a different colour (and design even) to their pilot suits, mecha, and magic even, and then you throw all of that on top of a grandiose but rather dull coloured backdrop to make it all stand out even more.
It's great, even re-watching it the other day I still love the batshit-insane final fight.
>>22646443
That's the film right? Man I don't remember it looking that cool, still never got around to watching the film again when I last watched the series so maybe I'll do that soon before probably re-watching the entire thing again soon to show it to a friend of mine.

>>22646509
Huh, different battle down there I must've been thinking of then.

>>22646527
The movie really remembered what the most exciting part of the series was

Someone somewhere must remember Blassreitter

Some of the comfiest threads we had on /m/.
