Post your farewell words to Three and Five.

Five was a homie and deserved to be the secondary instead of Nox.
Three was a nothing burger of a villain and just existed as a scapegoat for all the other human villains.

It's the best you could hope for a fusion of the show's various designs into one form. I still wish it didn't have the coattails though.

The only good Zeztz suit
The color scheme is very rich and vibrant, and does give off this vibe of "good dreams", I fucking LOVE the bubble pattern especially, and the rainbow effect does a lot for me as well. The gold parts are the worst part of the suit not because of the color but the design of the parts feel a little random, which is kind of my problem with Zeztz suits in general, there is no true direction that sparks any sort of inspiration for me personally, they all just look like toku heroes with technicalogical
elements and ugly marvel under suit patterns. This suit, with the bubbles and rainbow aesethic, at least reminds me of dreams.

>You really don't understand the concept of secret final boss, do you?
It's already been implied that Punish has been the one manipulating Sieg all along and that the latter wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for Punish's influence. Phantom also popped up out of nowhere to reveal she was the one behind Nem's birth as well as The Lady's never-mentioned-before secret benefactor. The Gore Nightmares ARE the secret final bosses.

Amano Kousei is cool but Sieg sucks ass. I don't see you or anyone claiming they're big fans of Libra just because Kousei plays him either.

I liked 5 more then 3 but they're both fine actors. 5 getting unceremoniously carbombed and 3 getting Dunder Mifflin'd were both amusing ways for them to go, especially with how brushed under the rug it all felt because we have new villains for Q4.

Only noticed the bubble textures now thanks to anon. Why can't they just make those a staple for all the designs for the show? Like a clear indication it's about dreams. Instead of trying to purely soft reboot the ichigo design.

Five was a pretty wasted character, but he was little less wasted than Six. I don't feel like Three was wasted (unless the next villains end up being worse than him), but he definitely could've had more fights and the conclusion to his arc as the main villain felt rushed.

My-Th is the only Rider that wears the belt on his chest, everyone else wears it on their waist and there's one Rider with another waist belt
>>
>>23900568
It's great. The J-Metal style took me off guard, but it really works. It was absolutely criminal how this was cut short in the show for the BGM during Nox's finisher, even as much as I liked that track.

I want Nox to make more of those noises his powers sometimes do, like those BUWAAAOH or KIRAAAA noises

It's really annoying that they never explored the idea of an agent becoming their own nightmare, rather than merging with a pre-existing one like Sieg did

Way better than the shitty rap inserts, but I don't think metal really fits Nox's character.

He was just mad he didn't get to do it first this time.

>>23900573
It makes him look weirdly top heavy and not in a bulky muscular way like Catastrom. It doesn't help that his suit actor has bird legs and the stupid Air Jordans he's wearing both make his feet look huge and his legs look even skinnier.

Which one was worse: Amazons or Black Sun?
>>
>>23900973
Black Sun, Amazons at least has several cool fight scenes and some likeable characters.
>>
>>23900649
Like he ever mourned them in the first place.
>>
>>23900973
Black Sun was a fucking snooze fest. The first season of Amazons is at least decent. It's the movie that's the real shitshow there.
>>
>>23900630
It matches his hotheaded behavior instead of the aloof act he puts on.

Also I just realized the irony that Nasuka acts largely the same and has a heavy metal ringtone.
>>
>>23900973
BS easily.
>>
>>23900991
What hotheaded behavior? He's impulsive sometimes but his overall demeanor isn't hotheaded, he even remained cool and composed during his final fight against Three. Someone like Five is hotheaded, even Baku is more hotheaded than Nox.
>>
>>23900973
I like both
>>
>>23900973
Black Sun no contest, Amazons is never straight up bad
First season is great, second season is slightly above average and the movie finale is average

I guess Black Sun isn't really bad either but goddamn that ending is easily one of the franchise's worst, the cast also isn't as likeable as Amazons'
>>
>>23901036
>second season is slightly above average
No.
>>
>>23900973
Black Sun, but we only got that one due to the success of Amazon, so I blame it for everything. That being said, at least Amazon had cool fights. The plot was garbage, but if you just want mindless gore and violence, it delivers. Black Sun can't even do that.

I do a watch along with my friends every week and I've been thinking of showing my friends a Kamen Rider series. Out of all the shows from Kuuga to Gaim which do you guys think has the most coherent story? I feel a lot of my favorite shows from that period fall apart in the final act.

>>23901102
Eh? Depends on what you mean.
Like, something that people not into toku and not used to things like Inoue weirdness would want to watch? Probably, like, Ryuki.

I want to say Kuuga and W are the most coherent aside from their finales, maybe Fourze and Gaim too?

Kuuga has the most coherent story.

Ryuki is a strong answer personally I'd want to show them Faiz or Kabuto but those kinda shit the bed at the end weirdness isn't really a disqualifier they're a bunch of nerds they should be able to handle it.
>>23901128
I was thinking W but I kinda wanted to hold off on heisei phase 2 as a a later followup I want them to experience a slightly less kiddy show as their introduction.

>>
>>23901143
Ryuki's plot issues are really just badly explained plot devices that sustain the main premise. You pretty much need to accept Kanzaki Shiro -needed- the Rider battle to be a somewhat fair and lengthy competition and had limited control on who ended with the decks even if the show didn't justify those points well.
>>
anyone make a webm of Midnight Shadow's rider kick yet?
I didn't see a thread on /wsg/
>>
>>23901286
It makes for a sort of interesting plot point though. Apparently in every timeline, no matter what Kanzaki does, Shinji ends up with the Ryuki deck and throws just enough of a wrench into things to delay the battle just long enough for Kanzaki's plan to fail.
>>
>>23901286
I'm talking about things like the existence of Mirror humans, Kanzaki's ghost, how Shiro and Yui ended up in the Mirror World as children and seemingly created the Mirror Monsters, the whole deal with the time loops, how the Rider War's "wish" actually works and so on. Some of that stuff is hard to understand without outside sources explaining what the deal with them is, and some are outright mysteries to this day.

There are too many vague details in the plot for it to be one of the most "coherent" stories. Ryuki is carried by its characters, feelings and messages rather than the coherence of its setting.
>>
>>23901354
Is it Nova Blade, Blades or Blaze? I've seen all 3 on different sources.
To me, it sounds like Blaze, but it's engrish so who knows

That looks cool. Heavy and sagging a bit maybe, but it's at least completely flush with the belt while also using all the slots.

Okay. That doesn't make any sense. The reason why Mezool became the big CGI monster known as the Mega Greeed because Dr. Maki chucked a SUV load of Cell Medals plus two of Uva(Green)'s Core Medals at her, and that includes the core medals that Gamel owned as he was in his complete form.

A belt can make or break a suit and all is the belts in Saber fucking suck.
>implying that a cheap retool that barely looks like a samurai is worse than a fully original cohesive suit
Your minor spelling mistake is implying I'm right, thanks.
And sometimes, it doesn't take that much to look great, as evidenced by Bujin Sword. The "cheap kitbash" is greater than the sum of its parts. Being an easy and cheap way to reuse parts doesn't diminish it, it just means they always had further potential to really look amazing and Bujin fully unlocks it.

Honestly it seems like especially on a global scale there's an increasing interest in toku as the fandom gets bigger but also as people who don't like toku but are into stuff like anime gain more awareness of just how influential it was on Japanese culture.
The sort of "passive 'fan' who doesn't actually engage with the franchise." For influencers there's clout in recognizing the references even if the person doesn't watch the shows. I imagine that this is even worse for toku, there are "fans" of these Shonen manga adpatations who don't even watch 1-2 cours of anime, you think they're watching a full year-long toku series?
As for the gacha game makers, they just like to steal shit.

why is reiwa so divisive?
>>
>>23901946
>why is reiwa so divisive?
Because the fanbase is expanding rapidly and many fans (in all regions to be clear) are deeply, deeply autistic or just literal children. This causes some of them to just constantly overrate everything (I don't like Zeztz at all so obviously I'm biased, but I literally cannot imagine why some people say it's their new favorite season other than they're new fans forcing positivity) or we go to the other end of the spectrum and they're just autistic lunatics who shit on everything, not even to be contrarians but just to get their jollies off, see: this thread.

Also the fact that every single Reiwa season has some kind of genuine, significant fuck up embedded in them. Not saying other eras all had perfect seasons obviously, but every Reiwa season seemingly has some black mark on it somehow.
>>
>>23901946
Because after Hikasa (the guy that made most of early heisei Sentai) became president every producer from the next generation that wasn't Omori (2nd best producer in Toei's history) got demoted so after Build there was a producer scarcity, in desperation demoted producers were given a new chance so we're going through what Sentai went through from Ninninger to Ryusoulger
tbf at least officially nothing really changed after Hikasa became president aside from his overseer/adult spin-off producer role being replaced by Tsukada (best producer in Toei's history), so really it seems more like the new generation are inconsistent and the reason their shows turned out so great before the presidential change was due to their overreliance on writer Kobayashi (one of the 2 best writers in Toei's history) so since she soft retired around the same he became president every new producer failed since they weren't properly trained unlike the previous generation

So essentially new producers are mostly creative but bad at management and while most modern writers aren't bad they're worse than who came before them and usually don't match the producer's wavelength then both the producer and writer end up being bad at adapting
So usually the shows aren't straight up bad and actually usually do the bare minimum to be considered above average but it always feels like they're not close to make the most use of their concepts due to each show doing a significant fuckup
Right now starting with Zeztz Toei doesn't have a producer scarcity anymore but they aren't exactly safe since out of the current 4 producers only Matsuura (Gozyuger) has a stable position since Takebe (Kiva, OOO, Gaim, Geats, Gavv, My-Th) might get promoted while the other two have higher chances of getting demoted although both of them definitely aren't getting demoted this year
>>
>>23901946
>>23901979
I really think the lack of crossovers reuniting the cast of multiple seasons also makes it much easier for the fanbase to split up and hate on other seasons since there isn't really an image of Reiwa Riders as an actual group.

Not an issue for early Heisei Rider since that had more consistent staff and atmosphere (so a lot of people just swore off Heisei Rider altogether with complaints like how it was ashamed of being a toku due to having little action compared to Sentai or Showa Rider, but most of the people watching and talking about it enjoyed what it was doing), also was before the modern internet.
>>
>>23901979
>their new favorite season
I haven't seen anyone say that but if I had to guess maybe Zeztz is their first season? I like Zeztz personally and might be my third favorite Reiwa season so far but really that isn't a high bar, I still consider all of Reiwa to be worse than most of Heisei and cannot imagine anyone really loving Zeztz with how many issues the character focus and world building have

Actual answer because anons crammed their own opinions except for the other guy:
With the advent of Reiwa, Toei made significant changes for "the new era" to give it a new face and alienated people to attract new audiences, along with having less variety in the staff for stability.
Also internal changes at Toei and TV Asahi.

It looks like a trashbag, even Evility has a better cape that actually looks like it's made out of cloth instead of that cheap wrinkly plastic-y fabric that Bujin has. You can also literally see how the mouth guard on the visor is just a piece of cheap sheet they put over it, they did a better job of not making it so obvious even on a literal one-episode suit like Amazingummy. The blade of the sword looks cheap as hell too, you can tell that it's made out of that low quality material they use for action props instead of close-up ones. They also modified the legs but were too lazy to remove the ninja shurikens even though samurai don't use those. Bujin Sword also has black fishnet stockings, it looks like a hooker, combined with the trashbag cape it looks like a homeless whore (I guess it really is greater than the sum of its parts, huh)

Combine all of that with the painted-on flat bolt "holes", and you can see that there's a lot of ugly or off-putting things with that suit, but you don't notice them because you're blind and stupid.

>The "cheap kitbash" is greater than the sum of its parts.

>>
>>23902091
nta but at least design-wise having more focus on the "mask" part, avoiding repeating main colors between each season and being more "cool" looking to help differentiate them from Heisei. Not sure about story changes other than the trend of relying on Premium Bandai toys more than before to insert new riders/forms based on viewer reaction up to Gotchard, then filming in way advance since Gavv.

The belt is one of the most important parts of not the most important in a rider suit, and the severe ugliness of that leaning tower of book outweighs the ugliness of all those minor nitpicks and retarded comparisons that you have to keep forcing to try to diminish the suit.
Bujin Sword mogs Tategami, and that's pretty much the general consensus of the audience at large, deal with it.
>>
>>23901809
At this point, Zeztz is on Gotchard's level or lower. Same with Takahashi's other Reiwa shows.
>>
>>23901703
Honestly? It's just the devs wanting to show some love to something they like. Things like the Starlight Knights from ZZZ ain't that different from the Featherman from Persona in that regard, just to give an example.
>>
>>23902112
>The belt is one of the most important parts of not the most important in a rider suit
If that was true then people would be saying a bunch of suits like Cosmic, Exdream or the Ex-Aid Riders look like shit solely because of their ugly belts or gimmick toys, but only your autistic ass does. Normal people don't tend to focus so hard on that thing when looking at the suits. The "audience at large" doesn't hate Tategami like you do, reactions towards it tend to be positive, so you must also be wrong for hating it under your own logic.

>the ugliness of all those minor nitpicks and retarded comparisons that you have to keep forcing to try to diminish the suit
That's exactly what you've been doing, I just gave you a taste of your own medicine.

>That's exactly what you've been doing
It's an objective fact that the shitty belt sticks out like a sore thumb and looks like shit with that plank leaning out and wasting all that space, no forced comparisons necessary.
Just because it's impossible for you to ever say anything negative about Saber doesn't mean it's as flawless as you like to believe, and you're only being overly nitpicky and defensive just because a suit is more popular and beloved than whatever shit suit you like and you can't stand that.

Oh, so that's what this is about. No, assblasted nog, I can actually say negative things about the suits in Saber like how Elemental's gaudy-ass color scheme ruins the design or Solomon's... everything. I didn't even deny that the book on Tategami looks bad from the side, but the fact that you insist on nitpicking this one flaw and act like it completely ruins one of the best designs in the show makes it clear that it's more about how butthurt you are at Saber in general than anything else.
>you're only being overly nitpicky and defensive just because a suit is more popular and beloved than whatever shit suit you like and you can't stand that
I don't care about its popularity, popularity is not an actual measure of quality. I'm more annoyed at your sheer autism and double standards.

Over Gavv is a cool as fuck final form. I love the cool stalking motion Shouma does as the attacks just bounce off him, and the finisher itself is impactful as hell. But the actual debut of the final form is pretty mediocre. There's no real emotional payoff for anything since Dente just builds the Gochipod for him off-screen, and the enemy being a literal who that got turned into a Bitter Gavv that looks just like Bake is lame as hell. Though, the show itself has been kind of lost ever since Suga died anyway. Not much has been going on besides a lot of setup on the villain side

Bitter Gavv's cookie form was designed first and then they made Bake out of that design, you can tell because most of Bake's armor is just a repaint of Bitter Gavv's. And they made the literal who transform because they hadn't advanced the storyline for the next Bitter Gavv user enough by that point.

Man, having the final form need to be taken way by the antagonists doesn't make the final form look poor. It doesn't make it look weak or anything, and in fact highlights how important it is.

It's different from the final just jobbing or not being used for no reason.

Episode 34 was a much better final form debut episode since it had more emotional impact. Shouma realising that he needed to savour the food he eats, and the three Riders working together to bypass Over's slowness is the kind of catharsis the previous episode should've had. They really should've debuted Over here instead since last episode was a lot of padding

>>23903198
The opponent Exdream faced right after its debut was fucking Six, probably the weakest transforming character in the whole show who Baku could've probably been able to take out with Plasma or even a basic form. Then Six tragically dies on Baku even though Exdream gives him rewind powers and they decide to take it away for several episodes, killing off its debut momentum and wasting prime shilling time, and when it's finally back (right when the next big toy debuts), Baku uses it to... destroy a laser wall and a briefcase, and it doesn't even succeed at destroying the Somnia Capsem even though it has rewind powers. If Zeztz really beats Sieg with Orderm next week, it will make Exdream look even more pointless.

This is not how you make a form look cool and strong. This is no Muteki, it's how Geats IX was mishandled.
>>
>>23903257
>it's how Geats IX was mishandled
Geats IX is still popular with fans. So being underwhelming after an impressive debut doesn't detract from how much fans will like it. It's losing fights that make people start calling it a jobber
>>
>>23903209
>Shouma realising that he needed to savour the food he eats
They should've realized that a while ago in the previous quarter when Shouma got depressed and went through that weird indigestion that didn't let him birth Gochizos until his mood got better. If I remember correctly, someone even made the connection between his powers and his emotional state before Over's debut.
>>
>>23903257
>The opponent Exdream faced right after its debut was fucking Six, probably the weakest transforming character in the whole show who Baku could've probably been able to take out with Plasma or even a basic form.
It's not like he struggled with Six though.

>it's how Geats IX was mishandled.
Geats IX got an extended fighting scene against a single grunt right after its debut. It was never taken away, but was used constantly in several battles just to underwhelm (although it always had the advantage in every single battle outside of the final boss) since they didn't want Geats finishing off any of the opponents he was facing.

Muteki took longer to be taken away, but after its debut it was facing a generic motw, a clearly weaker Rider and the Rider it already beat in its debut.

I'm not arguing Exdream has had great showings post-debut, it clearly didn't, but the story contriving a way for it to be taken away, rather than allowing it to fail directly, doesn't undermine it writing-wise since the entire narrative is highlighting it as the key in Zeztz's arsenal and making the plot about recovering it. Like I said, it's different from just not using an upgrade for no reason. The upgrade not being used in this case is a relevant story beat that highlight its importance.

>Baku uses it to... destroy a laser wall and a briefcase, and it doesn't even succeed at destroying the Somnia Capsem even though it has rewind powers.

Because it was teleported away right before it was hit and Baku only noticed it afterwards, it's not like he hit it then it went rolling around and someone else picked up.
>>
>>23903263
That was a different issue. He couldn't generate any Gochizos because he was feeling bad about lying to Hanto. But Shouma could've come out of that thinking that the lesson was that he can't make Gochizos if he's feeling down. He could still generate Gochizos for the Gochipod in episode 34, but he was doing it too slowly because he was too focused on just shoveling as much candy in his mouth as possible. Sure, he was stressed out about needing to make so many Gochizos in a short period of time, but it's not like there was an easy solution to that problem besides getting the Granute
>>

>it's different from just not using an upgrade for no reason.
Plasma Booster...
>>
>>23903265
>It's not like he struggled with Six though
That's not the problem, the problem is that they're not making Exdream look particularly strong by making it wipe the floor with a weak as hell opponent that his previous forms could easily manhandle as well. It's similar to the situation with Geats IX and the mooks it faced.

>Muteki took longer to be taken away, but after its debut it was facing a generic motw, a clearly weaker Rider and the Rider it already beat in its debut.
Cronus was still stronger than anything else in the setting, meaning that if Muteki was taken away, you could actually FEEL that everyone was fucking screwed and that they needed it back ASAP. Para-DX with his Level 99 form was still one of the stronger Riders in the show, so Muteki wiping the floor with it so easily also emphasized how strong the latter was. Then there's Gamedeus, which Muteki couldn't beat until it got nerfed, emphasizing just how fucking strong this endgame threat was.

>but the story contriving a way for it to be taken away, rather than allowing it to fail directly, doesn't undermine it writing-wise since the entire narrative is highlighting it as the key in Zeztz's arsenal and making the plot about recovering it
The story does undermine it if it doesn't highlight how and why the final form is particularly NEEDED, something Ex-Aid succeeded at but Zeztz doesn't. Both times Baku raided the CODE HQ, his main stated objective and worry wasn't even retrieving the Exdream gear, it was rescuing Minami and stopping Somnia. He didn't even need an upgrade to beat the brainwashed Nox, he didn't even need to fucking transform to invade his enemies' HQ and beat all the people guarding it.

>Because it was teleported away right before it was hit and Baku only noticed it afterwards, it's not like he hit it then it went rolling around and someone else picked up.
Like I said, Exdream has literal REWIND powers. That's how incompetent this fumble makes it (and Baku) look.
>>
>>23903261
Yes, the average fan is stupid, more news at 11.
>>
>>23903302
>Like I said, Exdream has literal REWIND powers.
I mean, that's why it was teleported away. He can't just rewind it when it isn't there anymore. He isn't actually time traveling, just manipulating the world around him.
>>
>>23903297
>That was a different issue
It's the same issue, Shouma can't create Gochizo if he isn't happy and can't enjoy the food.
>but it's not like there was an easy solution to that problem besides getting the Granute
There was, a few minutes later he realized he just needed to focus on enjoying the food to fill the Gochipod.
>>
>>23903302
>That's not the problem, the problem is that they're not making Exdream look particularly strong by making it wipe the floor with a weak as hell opponent that his previous forms could easily manhandle as well. It's similar to the situation with Geats IX and the mooks it faced.

I mean, she isn't a mook though. I don't see how this is worse than Muteki walking over Riders that were already outdated by its debut.

>Para-DX with his Level 99 form was still one of the stronger Riders in the show, so Muteki wiping the floor with it so easily also emphasized how strong the latter was.

I don't disagree this was great, but I was thinking more about how right after Muteki's debut you had an arc with a recycled motw, then Brave and Cronus again.
>>
>>23903311
I feel like you're being stupid on purpose or something. Can't he just rewind it back into the belt? Its power is to literally negate unfavorable events and choose a reality where Zeztz succeeds instead, it's not space manipulation, it's REALITY manipulation.
>>
>>23903312
It's the difference between being depressed that your girlfriend broke up with you and having to cram before a major exam. The end result is still the same (chill out and enjoy life), but they're different enough that it's reasonable to think that someone wouldn't realise that
>>
>>23903309
Yeah, kids and normies are famous for not really putting much critical thought into their entertainment. We're the weird ones
>>
>>23903318
>it's not space manipulation, it's REALITY manipulation.

Those are the same thing though. As long as it's not actual time travel, he hasn't been shown with the power to just rewrite the entire world all at once, which is what you seem to be talking about. You're taking an ability he used against one guy right in front of him and extending it to anything in the entire planet even if he doesn't know where it is.
>>
>>23903313
>I mean, she isn't a mook though
She was the weakest transforming character in the show who had done nothing but eat shit since the middle of it, she doesn't even have a solo win. Yes, not a literal mook, but might as well be.

>I don't see how this is worse than Muteki walking over Riders that were already outdated by its debut.
Muteki's most frequent opponent was Cronus, an enemy so strong that nothing but Muteki could beat it, it only became outdated when Muteki itself debuted. The other Riders it fought were high Level opponents that couldn't be beat by just anyone, rather than bottom of the barrel fodder. Even when it fought MoTWs, there was never a long period where it stopped fighting high-end threats.

>I was thinking more about how right after Muteki's debut you had an arc with a recycled motw, then Brave and Cronus again.
Here's the thing though, what Muteki has over Exdream is that it wasn't taken out of the show AND it also kept getting pitted against strong opponents.
>>
>>23903331
>He's literally picking and choosing convenient parallel realities to travel to.

No. If that's what you think his power does you'll be complaining for the rest of the show.
>>
>>23903324
>Those are the same thing though. As long as it's not actual time travel
No, it's not the same fucking thing and it's arguably even better than time travel. It literally negates events that already happened.

>he hasn't been shown with the power to just rewrite the entire world all at once, , which is what you seem to be talking about. You're taking an ability he used against one guy right in front of him and extending it to anything in the entire planet even if he doesn't know where it is.
He's literally picking and choosing convenient parallel realities to travel to. Even if it's limited to negating events that only happened recently, the Somnia Capsem had just teleported in front of him, if it can rewind Dawn's whole finisher sequence, then it can rewind that.

>>23903434
>why would you want to watch KR without henshin stuff.
At least for me having the protagonist fight out of suit from time to time helps create the illusion he's the same person in the suit despite having a suit actor
I remember in Dynaman how the black ranger used to be a suit actor so he was noticeably cooler than anyone else because he did far more stunts than anyone else, also early Rider out of suits fights were cool
Basically having a balance between out of suit fights and toku fights is great as long as most of them are toku fights and there's one toku fight per episode

Everyone old enough knows Toku uses suits more for liability reasons ever since Fujioka broke his leg back then

Master definitely got a worthy debut episode. Love it when a series calls back to all of its previous cases and shows how far the hero has come, and Lango is a fitting boss for it to fight against. I don't really care for the "You should have never been born" line since it's not like Shouma ever held any affection for Lango, and it was weird how they sort of tried to make it a mystery at first was weird, but the speech about how Shouma was glad to have been born was decent enough. Love Master's fighting style. Just crawling around, speed blitzing everywhere and form switching between Master and Over. Though, again, it's sort of lame that it's not really candy themed.

I actually wish all summer movies did this. It makes more sense dramatically than trying to throw in some big battle right before the final arc, but also completely unrelated to the final arc.
>>
>>23903635
I get wagt you mean but since summer movies need to release in summer it just makes it feel awkward since you know who's going to survive
So ultimately I prefer to just leave the post-series stuff to the V-Cinemas
>>
>>23903635
I don't, it ruins the suspense of the final arc for what's ultimately a glorified side quest, since they usually just fight some rando anyways instead of a pre-existing villain with close ties to the show's plot.
>>
>>23903360
what a pointless use of power. I don't get why he needed to do that for the clash. Sieg wasn't doing any bullshit stuff at that moment. Make it seems ExDream just travel to a different point of time.

Well, all that hope for Project RED is gone unless Omegahorn surprises us.
Hearing the ExDream Buckle's popularity, we already get to see its minor remold:
https://x.com/i/status/2065009890322747568
I know movie stuff nowadays is 100% P-Bandai (only the Oneness Buckle and Miracle Gotchard got a pass because of the card gimmicks), but the numbers gave me K-tai Investigator 7 flashbacks.
>>
>>23903708
Omegahorn is seemingly so different from Gavan Infinity structure-wise that it might have some hope if it's written well and the monster action is good.
>>
>>23903731
I mean its toys seem more similar to Ultraman and conviniently Ultraman is releasing less toys this year so Omegahorn might just legitimately have a chance

I thought the final confrontation in Gavv was kino as fuck, the final ultimatum and Langos response just sits so heavy with me. Of course he chose death without an ounce of hesitation, there was nothing left for Lango except death, and he accepted his fate with open arms. What are some other instances where the main villain basically opens their arms and says KILL ME! and lets the rider axe them?

Haven’t watched Zeztz, I think the suits are atrociously ugly and the action has seemed very sub par compared to the legendary shit Gavv was giving week to week. I pray we get the same action choreographer for my-th. In general my-th is already sounding so much more creative and fun.
>>
>>23903840
Are you confusing Gavv's final battle with Zero-One's? Lango didn't accept his death nor did he let himself get killed, he answered Shouma's Dousuru by telling him that he would kill him with his own hands instead, and then died like a generic villain trying and failing to land the killing blow on Shouma.
>>
>THE ZODIAC CALANDER IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY

I thought it was good but not that good. Mostly because it should have happened like 10 episodes before that.
I'm not generally a fan of "we're just wrapping things up" finale, so it was a little flimsy that that's how they resolved that. The change in plans with the Stomach family hurt the Q4 really bad.
Completely agree on the action though, Gavv's action scenes were fantastic and extremely creative with the use of toys and environment. Reminded me of some early 2010s Rider action. Zeztz just has ok movie action. It's not subpar, it's just doable. Sometimes they have some really cool stuff but it's rare.

I guess Black Cat will be MY-TH’s rival at first per Secondary Rider tradition, then slowly comes around once he understand MY-TH better.
