I will concede that Lazer's suit is awful, however.

Sports drinks sound stupid gimmick. But if you told me "video games" before I started Ex-Aid, it would have been similar reaction

Does...does he drink the sports drinks? Or is this like Gaim, Amazons, and possibly Double, where it's implied that the belt is injecting something directly into his body?

Well Build does look more like a traditional Kamen Rider, I'll give it that (in fact, he kind of reminds me of W in some ways). Here's hoping that the show and its suit design will both be equally good this time rather than it just being one or the other.

Here's hoping that the show and its suit design will both be equally good this time rather than it just being one or the other. Both the theme and design are reminiscent of W given that the power sets are A+B = Rider. It's distinct from W in that A and B are two distinct types rather than part of one collective group.

Excuse you. OOO had GREAT suits (and Fourze's suits really grew on me, but I'm always biased for Fourze).

Here's everything in a Tumblr post and somewhat better explained. The suits look amazing and I hope the plot is great too. That said, it can wait to start, Ex-Aid's too good and I don't want it to end.

Makes sense they moved onto MountainDew after Ex-Aid. (Those suits look sweet, ultimate form is gonna be a mess. )

Zedd posted:Makes sense they moved onto MountainDew after Ex-Aid. My only qualm so far is that due to the way the suits are designed, there's not going to be as much mixing as matching as it implies. It also resembles W in that way except that W only had three base types for each side and all combinations of them made at least one appearance in the series.

Somebody took a stab at translating the text from the toy catalog, and this is gonna be a wild ride Apparently the world was already destroyed, and mankind was preserved by putting everybody's souls into bottles. A new world was created for those souls to inhabit as temporary physical avatars. However, evil people called Builders commit heinous crimes in order to satisfy their souls, and only one man can stop them. So I guess it's a Singularity story? It's like somebody looked at the only interesting thing in Kamen Rider Ghost and wanted to have a do-over.

"Hino-san over in R&D locked himself in his office for 2 weeks, and when he emerged he had all these intricate and dynamic new designs for 5-Hour Energy shots." "Good, yes, we can work with this. Kamen Rider will combine 2 5-Hour Energies for 10 continuous hours of energy."

Here's an image showing how the mix-and-matching works for Build, confirming that it's possible despite his weird design. So it's W, but assymetrical. He looks really cool!

it basically looks like one is the Body Shot that gives him his armor/speed/power/whatever and the other is the Weapon Shot that gives him a tool or weapon or something maybe?

I just watched episode 1 of Geed. So, it seems like only Kamen Rider was able to gently caress up Kamen Rider Decade, then? Unless this show nosedives, that's Ultraman and Super Sentai both being totally fine at big weird crossover series.

When did Kamen Riders stop looking like giant bug-men? It seems like they're all designed by the Lego committee, of course this one fits that feeling more than others but that quirky insectoid look is gone. I'm starting over on Ex-Aid since I forgot about it for so long, and the first time I saw the traditional flying kick finisher was Dan trying to kill a kid. I guess I should note my prior experiences in this franchise were all in the old age of practical effects and sparklers (the way CGI has replaced pyrotechnics in all these shows is saddening and makes them feel like we're in a "Star Wars prequels" age) but I did see one episode of Blade and he looked appropriately bug-like.

StrixNebulosa posted:While I haven't seen it, wasn't Orb a crossover series too? Almost every Ultraman show nowadays is a crossover of some kind. The last show that was completely standalone was Ultraman Max back in 2005-2006. While there have been good shows since then the whole concept of every series being an anniversary season is kind of getting tiresome for me and I wish Tsuburaya would do something original for a change (hell, Orb and Geed basically have the exact same gimmick more or less).

The move away from bugs really kinda started with Agito and Ryuki, who were more dragon-inspired, though bugmen still stayed in the series like Kabuto and 555. Bug theming altogether seems to have been abandoned since W, with only the bug eyes really returning every once in a while as the bug feature, though it seemed Ghost was a bit more buggy than most.
