Minato has had 0 effects in the story, do you mean Yanaka and Takahashi?
I like Zeztz so far but it's a shame that I really cannot think of a single producer out of the current ones that would work well with Takahashi, I really hope they stop bringing him back for toku or at least that if they're going to bring him back for something it's for Project R.E.D
>>
>>23877424
I like the idea of it but the motor is way too loud. Easily better than Exdream but still not great. Really Zeztz is easily the worst toyline of Reiwa which has had consistently kinda middling toylines.

>>23877500
I actually really liked the overall atmosphere and flow of the episode... aside from Nox getting brainwashed. He hasn't even been an active ally most of the time.
>>
>>23877541
The episode was fun overall as the two fights were good, the bit with Sieg was funny and I like that Zero is with the cast again, there wasn't anything overtly wrong with this episode even if it didn't do anything amazing so on its own it's pretty good, but when you pair with the previous episode and you consider what happened before this two-parter it feels all kinds of off
I don't get why they thought doing this immediately after Sieg gets defeated and Baku obtains his upgrade, I also don't get malign Kureha's dead not be on a Nasuka-focused episode
>>
>>23877535
He's in a weird spot where he helps the heroes out occasionally but he's still part of The Lady's faction rather than Baku's and still wants to use Nem as a tool in his petty revenge plan against CODE, which should put them at odds but they haven't really clashed over it since the reset.

Interview with Kaname Jun (Hikawa Makoto / Kamen Rider G3) from the Shin Agito Ten exhibition book

>When I auditioned for Masked Rider Agito I was 19, and shortly after filming began I turned 20. Since I'd only just entered the industry, my first impression when reading the script was "How am I going to memorize such long lines?" (laughs)

>Because I was a newcomer with no acting experience, I had to throw myself into each scene with everything I had. As the story progressed, however, the demands gradually got higher. For example, the flashback scene where Hikawa Makoto saves passengers on the cruise ship Akatsuki, or the scenes where he speaks after removing his G3 helmet for me it felt like the difficult challenges kept increasing step by step.

>I remember showing up on set each time with my head full of solutions and worrying, and if I felt frustrated by a poor performance I'd take that feeling home with me.

>As for Hikawa, he had teammates in the police G3 unit, Osawa and Omuro, who always operated together as a team. I was truly glad to have Fujita (Osawa) and Shibata (Omuro) by my side. If I had been alone, I might have given up.

>The three of us warming up together during breaks was like good preparation; it made me feel, "All right, I can manage…" Around that time the police team, including Yamazaki (Hojo), often went out to eat together.

>Fujita, having long experience in the industry, encouraged me when I felt down about my acting, and Yamazaki would often listen to my complaints (laughs). Hojo treats Hikawa like an enemy in the show, but Yamazaki in real life takes great care of others. Shibata's off-screen atmosphere matched his role, even though he was the oldest in the G3 unit, he was the kind of character everyone liked to tease (laughs).

>In episode 23 there's the scene where Hikawa can't pick up the chilled tofu with chopsticks, right? In that scene he struggles comically and Shoichi says something like, "You're too tense" (laughs). That kind of acting was a lot of fun for me. The toughest parts, without a doubt, were the action scenes.

>Also, memorizing long explanatory speeches inside the G-trailer and delivering them smoothly was very difficult. Even in emotional scenes where Hikawa gets provoked by Shoichi, each episode's director had slightly different ways of handling the reins: some episodes leaned into comedy, others left a trace of seriousness. Because similar scenes were directed differently, I gradually learned different acting approaches while taking direction.

>Many guest-star actors in Masked Rider Agito are masters of the craft, and working with them taught me a lot. On the other hand, scenes where all three Riders appear together in their civilian forms were almost non-existent, right?

>Shoichi and Hikawa had many chances to talk together, but my impression was that Ryo wasn’t much involved. The three of us would gather mostly when greeting people on stage for Kamen Rider Agito The Movie: PROJECT G4, or at talk shows and magazine interviews, we chatted a lot during those breaks.

>My deepest memory from the one year of Kamen Rider Agito was making Kamen Rider Agito The Movie: PROJECT G4. Director Ryuta Tasaki and the film staff's determination was incredible; we felt such driving energy that if we didn't try to keep up we'd be swallowed by it. Filming the movie began about half a year after the TV series started airing.

>At a time when we were starting to be able to do a bit more of what we wanted (even if only a little), working with experienced performers like Ryo Karito and Mao Osawa was a tremendous thing for me.
(2/6)
>>
>>23877592
>Near the end, before Hikawa fires the G4, there's a scene where he shouts, "That’s enough already!" Did you know that in the script it was written as just "...!"— in other words, he was supposed to say nothing. But I wanted to utter something there, so I proposed that line during rehearsal. I heard that Inoue-sensei, the scriptwriter, said somewhere that "things like that aren't really necessary"… (laughs).

>The movie was made while the TV series was ongoing and our schedule was very tough. Because of that it's a film that remains deeply memorable to me.

>The AGITO Choujin Sensou project actually began when we (the G3 unit) suggested to producer Shinichiro Shirakura about a year ago, "Since it’s the 25th anniversary of Agito, why don't we make a movie?" A few months after the project started, many of us discussed through LINE what setting or story to use, but in the end we left it all to Inoue-sensei. About the finished script, I heard the writer even praised himself, saying" That's a good script, isn't it!" (laughs).

>This time I was also deeply involved as a "producer" for one corner of the Shin Agito Ten exhibition. The idea I proposed was a display corner showing the different "G systems" in history that begin with G3. I heard they even tried to recreate the G-trailer that Hikawa used to deploy G3 for the exhibition. I'd be very happy if everyone enjoys it thoroughly.

>For me, Kamen Rider was the starting point of my acting career, and from now on I intend to keep that feeling unchanged.

Interview with Kashu Toshiki (Tsugami Shoichi / Kamen Rider Agito) from the Shin Agito Ten exhibition book

>Kamen Rider Agito was the first drama set I experienced as an actor. At that time I had almost no acting skills, so it didn't feel like I was "acting" the character; it felt more like my real self just became Shoichi directly.
(3/6)
>>
>>23877594
>Regarding acting, I don't think the director demanded much from me. Looking back now, Tsugami Shoichi is the most natural role compared with Hikawa Makoto (Kaname Jun) and Ashihara Ryo (Makiyama Yusuke). Shoichi doesn't have Hikawa's police professional conscience, nor does he carry Ryo's bitter fate. Still, a character set up as "amnesiac" should actually be quite difficult to play.

>When I performed as Shoichi, I hardly focused on the "no memories" aspect because Shoichi himself would joke lightly like "Oh, I’ve got amnesia~" He's that kind of person, so I could portray a bright, cheerful person without dwelling on the amnesia.

>I'm from Hyougo Prefecture, but when I came to work in Tokyo I tried hard to speak standard Japanese, because if I didn't, my Kansai accent would pop out without me noticing when delivering lines. Now, 25 years later, I can choose to use west- or east-Japanese pronunciation, but back then I had to be careful even in everyday speech.

>Kaname is from Kagawa, and Makiyama is from Osaka, right? Most of the cast leaned Kansai, so when we gathered we tended to use Kansai dialect.

>Previous work like Kamen Rider Kuuga was a little different —tokusatsu heroes up to then emphasized strength and masculinity. But Shoichi was depicted as gentle and family-loving: he gardens, cooks, and feeds everyone. That was quite new. At least I think Shoichi's character image may have been a first for a Kamen Rider. I still clearly remember foods that appeared on the show, like the "Brussels sprout cake" in episode 14 and the "pickled-vegetable sandwich" in episode 18.

>Looking back calmly at a character called Tsugami Shoichi, there were moments I thought, "If I had this guy next to me all the time, he'd be annoyingly odd" (laughs). I wonder how the senior staff felt about that. In the show he treats Mana-chan and Taiji like family, so the atmosphere is close to the kids watching TV. I think that made the audience feel familiar and intimate.

I think they just retooled the Lord Six suit to look like Nox Knight for whatever reason. They clearly only have one male and one female Lord suit each
>>
>>23877597
>It's different from the high-and-mighty image of a hero. I intended him to be like the friendly older-brother-next-door. Shoichi sometimes tells corny "uncle" jokes or puns (dajare) that fall flat —that’s actually difficult. Given my age at the time, those lines were not things I'd normally say; how do you deliver unfunny jokes in a way that doesn't kill the mood? There’s no single right answer. I had to try and think it through, because if it came out too unfunny (too embarrassing), that would be troublesome (laughs).

>Normally Shoichi is cheerful, gentle, and far from a warrior spirit, but whenever the Unknown appears he says "Transform!" and becomes Agito immediately. I think the gap between Agito in the suit (performed by Takaiwa Seiji) and Shoichi is amazing.

>I also did Agito's voice, but after transforming there was almost no voice except battle shouts. Especially at first, Agito didn't speak at all. It felt as if he fought while losing his sense of will; in short, Agito's hallmark was the complete change before and after transformation.

>When I was in Kamen Rider Agito I received many letters from fans, from adults to children. I was deeply moved to learn that so many people supported Agito and Shoichi. Among the letters were some from people hospitalized with illnesses, saying things like, "Seeing your smile on television gave me strength". That was when I realized deeply that actors can influence people in so many ways. It was amazing, and it made me want to continue acting for life. Just as Shoichi gave viewers encouragement, the cheers and support from everyone gave me encouragement. I felt grateful and realized that we all created Kamen Rider Agito together, and that Kamen Rider Agito showed the greatness of entertainment power —how it can sometimes give people the "will to live".

We prepared spaces that step beyond the film world a bit further, and I had a chance to help produce the "Agito = Tsugami Shoichi" zone so visitors can experience a simulated world of the work.

Nox getting brainwashed is funny because he was still a villain anyways, so he just went from being evil for the Lady to being evil for Code.
Also funny due to how little he’s done in the second half of the show, so CODE brainwashing him is actually what will finally make him relevant again instead of constantly sulking while doing nothing.

They had to stop the CODE storyline dead in its tracks for a pointless arc about a guy that came back 1 episode after getting killed, they sidelined the two last MC upgrades immediately after debut, kept killing and benching a supposedly major character several times in a row, got Zero kidnapped again the episode after he got freed, we still barely know anything about the final villains... this is the kind of shit that people who don't know what they're doing anymore write.

Honestly, what was the point of introducing ExDream this early. I know toy schedule and all, but my god has the last few episodes been a terrible advertisement for it. It doesn't even look that great, nor does it do anything particularly interesting that Baku hasn't already done before.
>>
>>23877726
Did you not watch Ex-Aid? I don't get what Takahashi invokes in people when besides Ex-Aid his other 4 (5 if you count Outsiders) are very divisive, and while yeah most of Zero-One, High School Heroes and Geats' problems weren't his fault that still doesn't suddenly that Geats and High School Heroes would have turned out amazing had the changes not happened (although Zero-One would have turned amazing had Omori not changed his mind to appease fans ;_;)
He really should stop writing for Rider at least until we get a producer with a methodology like Omori and Tsukada since that's the only environment his writing style truly works, while the current producer situation isn't as bad as how it was from 2015 to 2023 I'm kinda worried that it doesn't seem like any of the current ones are as forward thinking as those two which is leading to less writer variety in toku as of late

I can't help but feel like Yanaka wanted to do the same thing Takatera did with Kuuga where despite Ultimate's toys coming out early the form wasn't used until the very end, but just like how it happened with Shirakura when he wanted to do the same thing with Agito he wasn't allowed

Now that I think about it why is Takahashi hired a lot for just Kamen Rider like Inoue instead of taking turns between Sentai/Project.R and Rider like Kobayashi did or just not being picked back so much at all?
Like Inoue getting hired so much in early Heisei was pretty much because he was Shirakura's drinking buddy and Shirakura only got to work in Rider but with Takahashi it has been with different producers which makes it so weird
>>
>>23877788
Quite literally coincidence, Kobayashi said that she getting hired so often by Toei was more of a "being in the right place at the right time". Takahashi is the same, Toei producers hire writers based on arbitrary reasons but by coincidence Takahashi has fit in most of them while having enough free time to work with Toei.

The whole "it was all a dream" tweest thing felt very Takahashi in the moment. But then it just doesn't actually go anywhere or lead to any of his usual bombast (which is what usually compensates for his weak character writing). Like, I don't think Nox being a nothingburger character is Takahashi's fault, that seems more of a Yanaka thing due to forcing the solo-hero angle. Nox's actor is a pretty well known one too, it just seems like such a waste.
>>
>>23877824
I’m warming up to the idea of rival riders, even if there’s kamen rider infighting fatigue on recent years. There’d be an interesting approach if the fight is exclusively between zodiac rivals, and the rest are chill with one another. So it’s not a battle royale, it’s a contest to see which people deserve to be part of the 12 zodiac spots.
Or they could do a battle royale and be boring, but let’s hope not.

Multi-rider ensembles are a necessity, after Zeztz proved that solo riders no longer work in today's age. Even if Geats also exists in today's age as well.

The fact that Catastrophe is the source of Baku's powers makes me think they'll cuck him out of his final form for drama's sake so he'll be forced to face him with Impact like in the OP.
>it’ll be like Kuuga it’s fine
This show has consistently failed to emulate the elements that made Kuuga good.
>>
>>23877872
>after Zeztz proved that solo riders no longer work in today's age
You're not making sense how does Zeztz proofs that? The sidecast not being that useful is due to the show's dream world setting and Nox being a bad character is due poor writing, none of this have anything to do with the "solo Rider" approach
>>
>>23877884
Just because Geats show what can go wrong with an ensemble cast does not mean we have to switch to an obsolete format now.
The least you can cope for is an Agito-like approach if you still want the kaijin to be relevant, and Gotchard is not too long ago since they did that.
>>
>>23877859
The show barely had any infighting until now. Dawn literally had to step aside for half of his own arc just so weekly Nightmares could take the spotlight.

They're introducing a bunch of boss kaijin and all the major Riders are already more or less on Baku's side. The infighting is not gonna last much longer.

Nobuhiro Mouri would be terrible not matter the scenario, Akiko Inoue and Junko Komura would be fine had My-Th been a show with few riders like Gavv and Zeztz but they would probably fuck My-Th up if they get picked
Kento Shimoyama can go either way but would most likely fuck up

It's not an impossibility due to Takahashi being very good at scheduling but I in general don't want to Takahashi to return to Rider for at least 6 years
I'm just worried that right now there really isn't any "safe" producers at Toei so which writer gets picked for Project R.E.D and Kamen Rider matters way more than ever

>>23877928
It doesn't matter how good he is at scheduling when he's clearly burnt out and out of ideas. He's not taking on My-Th right as he's done with Zeztz

>>23877912
Takahashi gives us reasons to be mad always.
>>
>>23877929
Takahashi has repeatedly stated that he loves working on Rider and even told Yanaka that he wanted to return for a mainline season, being good at scheduling does matter a lot since it's why Arakawa got picked back to back for Abaranger and Dekaranger
That said Takahashi is one of the least likely picks for My-Th, right now Komura is the likeliest who I also hope isn't the one that writes it since she need to stick to seasons with small Rider counts

>>23877932
But why though? He is neither the writer with the most credits in Rider, the most incompetent nor the best

>>23877922
I mean, you're seeing how much action Nox is getting right?

Most of Mouri's career consist of shitty fujo novels and stageshows
Takahashi isn't an amazing writer by any means and I think most people don't want him to return to Rider but most of his career consist of good shows and movies, hell he's barely made below average stuff he's mostly divisive, out of the top of my mind when it comes to truly shit things he's written there's Monstaboo and the Zero-One V-Cinemas

>>23877975

Anon have you considered who are the current producers at Toei right now? Even though the problems with Zeztz are mix of him and Takahashi by default he's the safest choice for a producer right now if you look at what he made in the drama division, the only other choice that could probably be safer than him is Sota if he sticks around on the toku division after Zeztz

Doesn't matter to us as long as the show is still good, and he clearly rarely misses his deadlines anyways since he has an extensive career working for a bunch of productions and even reportedly wrote for 5 shows at the same time.

Not that I think Donbros' had terrible writing or anything, but hasn't the general consensus for the main reason why Sentai's sales fell off a cliff was more that because their toys became crappy bricks rather than writing quality and Donbros actually had a cool well-articulated mech for once?

It does. The writers job is to make the toys and form look appealing to the kids (and the public) so they buy it.
There’s a reason why Omori and Takahashi shows are popular, they go out of their way to incorporate the new toys into the plot.
>And most people would prefer to get an Inoue show
For a completely different reason that you’re stating. It has nothing to do with quality.
People have gotten sick of Takahashi’s writing style because he’s written 4 shows in under 10 years.
Inoue would be a breathe of fresh air in comparison, but not good.
>>
iirc didn't most producers in the 90s actually hate working with Inoue because whenever he served as an episode writer he would just disregard the cat's characterization which is why they never hired him back despite Jetman being such a massive success? while that doesn't seem the case at all after we reached the 00s I guess most producers don't see him as viable?

>>23878045
The guy got demoted again when he made a stageshow with Kinoshita, really his qualities as a producer are great with the glaring flaw of picking writers he just chooses the absolute worst ones
It's honestly a miracle that the Gorider mini-series he got tasked with as a VP since he picked Ninninger's writer for that

I don't know about the lawsuit since that came from the same tabloid that was stalking Aguilera's, anniversary seasons seem to be targeted by tabloids the most since the same happened with Gozyuger, I guess since lore people watch anniversary seasons that means tabloids can earn more money from controversies?

Revice wasn't a critical failure, Bandai literally said it was neither a success nor a failure for them.
>>
>>23878052
> Revice for going overbudget while both were critical failures
I know we all hate Revice but don’t make up shit just because you don’t like the show. It makes you look retarded
>>
>>23878060
>Bandai
those are sales not critical
if it was up to Bandai everyone that got tasked for Sentai in the past 11 years would get demoted for failing to meet sales demands
>>
>>23878031
>And most people would prefer to get an Inoue show because it'll be good

Nah, Sentai fans lap it up because they mostly see Sentai as comedy nowadays.

Inoue's writing in Rider gets lambasted all the time still. Just see Rider Time Ryuki or Zi-O vs Decade. Even the Faiz anniversary that tried to be very inoffensive and mostly fanservice is still seen as a disappointment.

What are your guy's hopes for the Reiwa 10th anniversary series? We still have like 2 more series before then, but let's assume they're around the average level of Reiwa series.

Do you want returning characters? Do you want returning characters that stick around as major parts of the plot, like Decade in Zi-O? Do you have any specific small stuff that would make you happy to see like some of the random surprising stuff in Zi-O like Aqua coming back?
>>
>>23878057
I feel like Ox would be a perfect Saikou type ally that shows up in Q2. But also having a sheep Rider be the Q2 Rider is also such a perfect opportunity.
>>
>>23878062
wasn't that the reason though? the whole justification for why he got demoted for both Kyuranger and Revice despite both shows being sales increases that I saw online was that he went overbudget with shit like the 12 rangers and hover bike
>>
>>23878071
>Do you want returning characters?
Yes.
>Do you want returning characters that stick around as major parts of the plot, like Decade in Zi-O?
Yes.

I know some people will say they want an anniversary that doesn't rely on crossovers and stuff, but like... at that point it's just like every other season and you already have those every year.
>>
>>23878071
I want it to be just a standalone show that does references to prior shows but powers aren't directly related to past riders, kinda like how Sentai handled some of their anniversary seasons such as Boukenger and Ohranger
Bringing back past characters is always a mess due to having to meet their schedule, the reason it worked so well with Gokaiger besides having a top-tier writer is that the 2011 earthquake managed to clear the schedules of several actors
>>
>>23878071
This might be completely impossible, but I want to see a completely classic style rider, a guy who gets turned into a cyborg and has to fight an evil organization. Simple as.

Reminder that Aguilera's actress also got harassed by a Revice cast member under Mochizuki's watch.

>I don't know about the lawsuit since that came from the same tabloid that was stalking Aguilera's, anniversary seasons seem to be targeted by tabloids the most since the same happened with Gozyuger, I guess since lore people watch anniversary seasons that means tabloids can earn more money from controversies?
It's not a fucking tabloid rumor, it literally got reported to a workers' union alongside other poor working conditions and the anonymous AP later publicly came forward in an attempt to sue them.
>>
>>23878033
>>23878066
I think Inoue's thing, from my experience, is that he just fucking sucks as a writer for movies and short series. his full length series tend to be at least decent and include some of my favorites of all time, but his short stuff and tie-in movies tend to blow.
>>
>>23878080
>does references to prior shows but powers aren't directly related to past riders

How direct do you want the references to be? Vague allegories and name/design similarities like Revice?
>>
>>23878064
Revice only has a horrible reception among hardcore fans, the general audiences didn't hate it. It has more Twitter followers than Saber, Gotchard and Zeztz, and it managed to achieve the follower milestone they set to get Juuga vs Orteca made.

Have absolutely no reference to Legend at all
Include a past anniversary series character in an important role like Decade in Zi-O, but don't have it be Decade or Zi-O. Make it a time jacker or Geiz or even just a character from a season that has a mechanical reason to show up, like Zeronos.

My bad then, so does that mean Mochizuki really just fucks off after Q1 for everything he makes allowing for such things to happen? I cannot remember any other case with Toei where an employee got harmed on their grownds, since stuff like suit actors dying/getting hurt is usually when they practice a stunt unsupervised and the odd case of an actress getting raped/impregnated that happened in Fushigi Comedy was by her manager rather than anyone from Toei
But in that case why was he demoted for Kyuranger? The show was disliked in Japan except by hardcore otaku but sales DID increase

That Takahashi doesn't write it, I don't want to see him wank his own shows again like he did in Outsiders.
>>
>>23878085
Vague allegories but thinking about it harder I've changed my mind I want some past actors returning as recurring characters but not as cotw
The reason being that Gotchard, Gavv and Zeztz already do references to the original but I just don't see having cases of the week for returning characters working well, so the only context I could see it working is having a few characters be part of the main cast since in that case it would mean they're available for long stretches of time and wouldn't have to fuck up the scripts like how it was with Zi-O

Basically do the same thing they did with having Decade in Zi-O but in a larger scale
>>
>>23878073
Why not both? Introduce both the Ox as a major ally and the Sheep as a major rival/villain in Q2.
>>
Seeing people complain so much about Takahashi makes me wonder how bad /krg/ would be if it was around during say, Faiz, Hibiki, Kiva or OOO
How did any of you manage to survive Ghost?
>>
>>23878094
/krg/ was mostly fine before Zero-One since we only had Maurice with Ghost and some /v/flags with Ex-Aid and Build
But early during Zero-One shitposters came in masse all throughout 4chan and it felt harder here due to the lack of moderation
Before /krg/ was made discussion was fairly normal although way slower and since we had to share space with Sentai a good chunk would revolve around Goseiger seething
>>
>>23878094
It was around for OOOs. I don't see why you're including it in a list of Inoue shows, but yeah.

Ghost was the when we got the first example of huge anti-show shitposting campaigns so arguably we didn't.
>>
>>23878089
>But in that case why was he demoted for Kyuranger? The show was disliked in Japan except by hardcore otaku but sales DID increase
It still didn't meet Bandai's sales expectations, and I heard the show went overbudget as well.

I hate Takahashi as much as the next anon but this is legitimately the third time we've shit on him this thread. We need new topics
>>
>>23878107
Sorry but he's the main writer of the show that's airing right now, so it's kinda impossible for people to not constantly talk about him.
>>
>>23878100
OOO was really unplanned, but like all changes to the plan were positively received and the consequence of the behind the scenes mess were fairly minimal overall (like the cell medals based on the black medals appeared in the show around Birth's debut even though Core turned out to be completely incompatible with OOO... but like... no one cares about cell medal emblems anyway).
>>
>>23878097
I guess it must have been both since they kept producers that didn't meet expectations or straight up fell financially before
Toei must be scared of a situation like Takatera happening, specially after he made Daimajin Kanon right after helft which probably just reinforced their logic

/krg/ was a pretty pleasant general around Gaim/Drive. Shitposting are done in good fun, the worst we got were subgoku, and other than that its just things like MAHAposting and "don't let the robot fuck my sister". There was the Showaschizo, but he often make his own threads rather than shit up the general. Maurice fucked this place up badly, and Ex-Aid bringing in the /v/tards + 4chan being a significantly worse place post-2016 US election just ruined it.

It is literally arguably everyone else besides Sasword. TheBee, Drake, Kickhopper.

To Bandai it's Thebee but for Toei it was meant to be Drake, however because his actor had scheduling issues due to his music career Sasword and Kick Hopper ended up feeling more like tertiaries

Looking back on it, I kinda wish they had done more with Kiriko in Drive.

This guy has to be the worst handled character in a show of poorly handled characters. Comes out of nowhere with a beloved actor transforms like 4 times before becoming food for a final form debut and then gets relegated to being an even bigger gag character than Kuroto. He doesn't even feel real because he's never appeared outside of a dream. He's supposed to be the tertiary rider but he's just so nothing, even Punkjack or Nudge Sparrow left bigger impressions.

In fact my biggest complaint about him is why hasn't he appeared outside of a dream?

Going off memory so someone fact check me on this but iirc
>Masaru Igami had worked with Ishinomori on the 1st Cyborg 009 anime were he was impressed by his dark writing, due to the nature of the show he recommended him as a writer and Hirayama-P went for it since he had worked with Igami before
>Same writer for V3
>Since Igami had worked for 3 years in a row Hirayama wanted to pick famous Sci-fi novelist Shukei Nagasaka who previously headed Kikaider 01 for X however due to heavy creative differences with Hirayama in regards to Jin's father he left after episode 3 and they just defaulted to Igami as his replacement
>Due to MBS moving to its original JNN/TBS network and the constant shifts between the Kansai television network affiliations causing X to be viewed less X had to get canceled, because the shift to a channel wasn't going to happen immediately Hirayama decided to make a shorter experimental season until the shift happened written by himself with Amazon
>Igami again for Stronger
>Igami again for Skyrider but due to the poor ratings they decided to change the direction of the show and have him replaced with Takashi Edzure since he was the only one out of the 2 episode writers of Skyrider that wasn't occupied at the time
>Edzure again for Super-1
>I have no idea for ZX
>Since Shozo Uehara had successfully launched Super Sentai and Metal Heroes Yoshikawa-P wanted him to relaunch the Rider franchise, but due creative disagreements with the show's tone he left after episode 12 and left the show to his apprentices Junichi Miyashita and Noboru Sugimura, however due to them being inexperienced Yoshikawa didn't have either and most of the show's run had no head writer which is why the story remains on standstill, most of the show would end up falling Miyashita but when it was time to do the final arc where the show would need proper direction Sugimura got picked
(1/?)

>Due to the family theme of Black RX Yoshikawa felt Edzure would be a good pick due to his portrayal of everyday humans
>For shin Prologue Yoshikawa wanted Ishinomori's son Joe Onodera to write this reboot due to his connection to the franchise but due to heavy disagreements between Ishinomori and Jo they decided to go with a writer that had worked on Black, in this case Miyashita but Jo remained as co-writer

>Shirakura-P had become a drinking buddy of Igami's son Toshiki Inoue back when he worked as an AP for Jetman which Inoue headed, since then he tried to hire him whenever possible like he did for Changerion and Hakaider, so he did the same with Agito
>Shirakura wanted to hire Inoue again but he had already been booked for 2 other shows after Agito, Shirakura wanted Ryuki to have a high emphasis for drama, stumped he decided to watch other recent toku by Toei and ended up impressed by the drama elements of Timeranger so he went with that show's writer Yasuko Kobayashi

>Takatera saw potential in the episode writer he worked before with known as Tsuyoshi Kida who he felt was really creative but he felt he wouldn't be able to handle a whole show, so he came up with a dual writer structure where he worked together with Shinji Oishi who he felt was capable at slice of life elements, as to who is Oishi and where Takatera found him I have no idea, however due to Takatera going really overbudget, the show underperforming and Takatera having a few conflicts with higher-ups with his Sentai he got fired and replaced with Shirakura, rather than rehiring the two writers he decided to have them replaced with his common collaborator Toshiki Inoue
>Shirakura felt he was relying too much on Inoue specially with hiring him on such a short notice with Hibiki, so for Kabuto Shirakura made a list of writers he had worked with before that he was willing to have head a show and asked Inoue who he saw potential in where he said Shoji Yonemura, a writer Shirakura met due to another show around the time of Hibiki that he had to take over the production due to the original producer leaving known as Sh15ya

>Takebe-P wanted a romance drama show with Kiva so she picked Inoue because he wrote Jetman
>For Decade Shirakura wanted a writer that had seen every Heisei Rider show, the only ones who met this criteria were Aikawa and Yonemura, so he picked Aikawa since he hadn't headed a show with him before, but due to heavy creative differences when it came to Diend Aikawa left so after a short period of episodes without head writer he picked his second choice Yonemura
>Back during an event Tsukada-P ended up meeting Riku Sanjo and what would be Ultraman Max's staff, due to this he had two picks in mind for his Sentai Magiranger, Sanjo due to his strong sense of world building as proven with his manga Dai no Bokuen and Atsushi Maekawa due to his experience as an episode writer for Doremi, he ultimately went with the latter due having more experience with toku but kept in contact with Sanjo and would hang out with him sometimes, for W it was a special production where they were given more time and wanted to make a Rider show that would help establish the franchise's image, he felt that a Kamen Rider protecting a specific town would help this so he went with Sanjo to guarantee the world building was successful
>Takebe and Kobayashi had been friends since back when she was an AP so she wanted to work with her for OOO
>Due to the 2011 earthquake Tsukada wanted to create a lighthearted show, he came up with a highschool setting to accomplish this, so for Fourze he went with Kazuki Nakashima who he had met because Nakashima worked in Ultraman Max and had employed as an episode writer since, because he felt he was a writer that was really good at portraying youth

>Omori-P wanted to follow Tsukada's example of writer variety however because of Omori's tactic of having a single writer for his shows to make his stories as cohesive as possible he realized he didn't trust any writer besides Sanjo who he worked with in Kyoryuger, because of this he hired Sanjo again but came up with the methodology of having lots of sidecontent to train new writers, however because his original pitch for a Video Game Rider got rejected he didn't do a proper plan so Drive ended up having episode writers anyway
>Takahashi-P has this structure where he comes up with most of the ideas and oversees them continously so he really doesn't care who the writer is, so he asked TV-Asahi to pick for him where they picked up Takuro Fukuda, we don't know why they picked him but the leading theory is because he had some toku experience with Ultraman Max and because he was good at emotional scenes which would fit a show about death, due to Takahashi-P's structure Keiichi Hasegawa who he had hired as an episode writer for Ghost due to him being a VP for both W and Fourze which featured him Hasegawa ended up writing a considerable portion of the show

>Shirakura didn't want to make a show since he's an executive but due to the producer scarcity and Build getting lower ratings the other executives managed to convince him to make a crossover show, because his mecha ideas got rejected due to budget limitation Shirakura just sort of gave up and had VP Takebe and director Ryuta Tasaki come up with key aspects for the show where Takebe ended up hiring Kento Shimoyama as head writer due to him not putting much of a fight when she forced him to do crossover episodes back when they worked on Ninninger
>Omori felt a lot of pressure handling the first show of a new era because it had to live up to the first season and Kuuga, because of the pressure he went against his ideology with Zero-One and picked Yuya Takahashi due to Ex-Aid being his show that resonated the most with children and also went with the standard episode writer approach
>Due to Takahashi-P not caring for what writer he gets he went with Fukuda and Hasegawa again for Saber

How would you guys feel if Exdream doesn't appear again until the final episode, and Baku instead relies on Orderm for the remainder of the show?
>>
>>23878281
Happy, despite the bulky plate armor.
Even better if it assimilates with Nem, to become OrdNem later on.

When you think about it...
Kuuga is cursed when it comes to shows that try to emulate it. Maybe this is Takatera's revenge at Toei for being fired.

>>
>>23878293
Agito was a fluke when you look back at it in retrospec. Shirakura and Inoue could only make a Kamen Rider show for children with budget restraint back then and turned out those limitations was what held the maniacs back from turning it into a shitshow with modern cynicism. With how Inoue write Shouichi in Kuuga manga and Psychic War, you can easily tell that he really hates Agito.

You can just tell that when he was talking to the director they were mentioning the "Tachibana screaming while sitting on the floor" from Blade to try and echo it here.

What kind of suffering path will cause Shouichi to gain Shining Form, and create the Mirror World when he kills the Overlord?
>>
>>23878358
Considering Godai got an upgrade from the decapitated spirit of his Hot Grongi Babe, probably something like "My sister's soul is shining down on me" and that powers up Shouchi.

Gai was appearing since cour 1 though. The stuff with the numbers also happened there. He started mentioning upgrade percentages (for Valkyrie's Lightning Hornet form) and they kept it going with him talking about higher and higher numbers in later episodes for various things until hitting 1000, and Takahashi just went along with that afterwards.

>>23878233
why are you so against lone heroes? you know damn well that isn't the reason they suck
>>
>>23878481
I'm not against them, I'm implying that they tried to do the lone hero concept in one of the worst ways possible, which is making every character but the protagonist himself look bad just to make the MC look good.
>>
>>23878260
My guy, you couldn't have used a worse example. Ankh is literally meme incarnate.
>>
>>23878264
>as to who is Oishi and where Takatera found him I have no idea
Some deep lore for you: Shinji Ooshi is (Was, at least, might have gotten therapy) a hikkikomori writer who is super shy and usually communicated via mail. He was also one of the setting designers for Kuuga. Him and Takatera are very close friends.
>>
>>23878501
>Ankh is literally meme incarnate.
He is literally the most joyless character in the show with only meme worthy thingy being his mild fondness for popsicles. 90% of Ank screentime is just him being a cynical asshole in contrast to the goofy, overly optimistic and naive Eiji.
>>
>>23878321
Honestly, he is a mess in the manga. Inoue just can't make up his mind he is supposed to be gay or straight, he is also such a joke in combat, too as he gets beaten up like a faggot he is, way too often. The mantis gurongi murder involving him was sort of a convoluted mess because Shouichi was gonna murder her but she killed herself to prevent him from commiting a crime. If i was 15 years younger, i would go "Wah wah hot waifu died i'm crying" and in absolute denial of this faggot being the one who bears the Agito mantle, but the current me just lost interest and tapped out. I have no idea what is even going on in the manga's story and not bored enough to check.
>>
>>23878508
and that's why he is so memeworthy to joyless millennials. just like me fr fr etc

Abaranger was done as a "Kuuga 2" according to the producer and it turned out amazing
But the key differ that Abaranger has that Wizard and Zeztz don't is that Abaranger actually got back Kuuga's writer
>>
>>23878298
He doesn't hate Agito, in fact he said Agito was the only show he got to do every idea he wanted
Inoue just thinks shit like the Kuuga manga or "pass down the pepper" is legitimately funny which is why he should be kept away from Seinens, like Jesus have you seen the mess that is Gundam Sequel?

do I just have bad luck that I post when shitposters are around?, same shit happened in /ssg/ when I said I thought Gingaman was average then on another thread people said that never happened and that most anons think Gingaman is just all right
>>
>>23878875
>right now there's an anon in the thread acting as if everyone would hate OOO if aired now for some reason
He's just making up a delusional scenario in his head in a failed to attempt to defend Takahashi's shitty Reiwa shows, it's a literal fallacy. He wants to make it seem like the general would hate even the best Rider shows if they simply aired today, but no one's buying his bullshit and the fact that heated arguments never break out whenever a newbie deems a good show like OOO to be good is proof enough that he's just being a slimy lying bitch.

>do I just have bad luck that I post when shitposters are around?
Probably, just don't confuse people pointing out whatever flaws those shows might have (because no show is perfect) with outright hatred or shitposting.

Because, outside of Revice and kinda Gotchard, they're all very polarizing shows due to their quality not being really consistent enough, which means they each get both several amounts of people who like the show in spite of its bad parts and several amounts of people who dislike it in spite of its good parts, which is a perfect recipe for heated arguments and discussions.

>>
>>23879123
Why would I care about the opinions of people in /krg/? I don't form my opinions based on the fags here.
Two of the best episodes of Zi-O were written by Inoue, and they showcased exactly what made his writing good, while respecting what Kiva was about.
>>
Donbrothers (and later Faiz) made me really like Inoue's writing again, I hope he comes back to Rider eventually.
>>
>>23879125
Because if a majority of people didn't like the episode then your point that "he made the best episodes of Zi-O" wouldn't really hold water. I could have Ghost as my favourite season and claim that it's the best written show but it doesn't really matter if nobody else agrees. Also, still got hijacked by Ginga halfway through

Like what you like, not what others tell you to like. I hope you do love Ghost, and that you get lots of enjoyment from watching it. /krg/'s rageboner for Ghost shouldn't matter one bit.
>>
>>23879139
I haven't watched Ghost. But one of my favourite seasons is Geats so I know how it feels to like an unpopular season. Either way, it's nice that you enjoyed that two parter.

NTA, but they were still willing to give the show a pass despite the weak ending, which shows a fair bit of bias compared to previous series.

I'm not even trying to say they're wrong to feel that way, but the constant deluge of "the ending was weak, but the series is still good" instead of just saying "the ending was bad, but I personally like it" shows a concerted effort to paint general opinion.

Shut up Zi-o solos your favorite reiwa
>>
>>23879233
Zi-O's a loser. OhmaZi-O is stronger, but that's not a form that's normally accessible. Also, OhmaZi-O has a hard limit because he doesn't have the powers of any Riders past the Heisei era. His entire character setting is founded on the idea that he's the last Rider, that the previous Rider before him was Build and that's the end of it. Even if Ridewatches for 01 and on exist, OhmaZi-O doesn't have them.

Zi-O can surpass OhmaZi-O, but he's limited by budget so he'll never get any stronger than he was at the end of his show. Ohma Form will never return because Toei and Bandai don't give a fuck about movie forms.

Grand is better than every other Heisei final form because it can summon whatever Heisei final form you think is the strongest and like 3 others on top of that. Sougo can also awaken the powers of Ohma whenever he wants, he simply chooses to only use them as a last resort.

>Even if Ridewatches for 01 and on exist, OhmaZi-O doesn't have them.
2068 Sougo doesn't, but the main Sougo does.

>he'll never get any stronger than he was at the end of his show
And that point he was pretty much stronger than any other Rider in the franchise.

>Ohma Form will never return because Toei and Bandai don't give a fuck about movie forms
It came back in the Final Stage.
