SPD Krueger sucks because he's a whiny generic guy with a generic vendetta instead of a badass authority figure. That was one of my problems with SPD in general; I really like all the cop stuff in Dekaranger, so the generic space cadet setup or whatever that they use instead puts me to sleep. With Time Force it at least maintains the time travelling gimmick, even if they replace the weird fat crime boss alien with a generic supervillain.

My opinion was the exact opposite. My main issue with Dekaranger was that Abarella's whole plot had no connection to the rangers, no goal beyond making money, and that the rangers themselves had little direct connection to the events happening around them outside of a few episodes.

In this thread we have Opinions! TimeRanger's Don Dolnero was way more generic than Ransik. It's like the opposite of SPD, where Kruger became the generic vendetta dude, Time Force's Ransik ended up being way more interesting. He had like a legit grievance with mankind, and underwent at least some kind of character arc with regards to being a decent father.

 Ransik is still my favorite PR villain aside from MAYBE Zedd.

StrixNebulosa posted:A good piece of Ex-Aid fanart:  That was a great moment.Motto posted:Ex-Aid 40: 40: That Parad breakdown on the roof was so good. Agreed on how good the development was too, I would never have expected bumbling episode 1 Emu to ever traumatize his enemy to make them an ally. The fight was just outstanding too, I laughed aloud (in a "That is so loving cool" way) when Para-DX split apart and took control of Cronus' power-ups, I have no idea how I never saw that coming. As for the Reset, it took Dan quite a while to complete it so I guess it would be less the tension of how they get it back and more what will Cronus be able to do to them before it's complete. Though of course I don't think he'll actually make a new one, they'll find a way to un-reset or something and get it back, but if they did I have faith ExAid would make it work. Also, gotta show some love for that opening scene with Cronus singing about himself basically, what a dick. EDIT: I also hope they don't make this Johnny Maxima guy the final boss or something, he has kind of come out of nowhere, though his role isn't completely inexplicable. I just have no idea what his part in the plot will be.

On that, we know from ads and such he's Gamdeus's human form in the movie at least. So it's either a tie-in to the movie or something else involving Gamdeus.

I was talking more about the suit design than the character but yeah, basically this. I like Dekaranger well enough but it's really episodic and Abrella didn't really have much of a connection with the team considering he was more of an arms dealer than he was a conqueror (hell, the only reason he went after the rangers at the end was because he was pissed at them for constantly breaking his stuff).

catching up on ex-aid, am i forgetting about something or is the whole 'emu can't use the gamer driver without parad around' drama kinda undercut by there being that special surgery people can undergo to use the gamer driver and emu was the odd one out in not needing it i haven't seen 40 yet but the preview showed him fighting and i'm not expecting parad to be for reals dead but still, it feels sloppy that none of the characters mentioned that

Well those were some interesting tidbits about Ho-oh Soldier as well as the world He's been asleep for 300 years after beating the Don, being the first President of the Space Federation, the First Human to go beyond the Moon and the first to get a KyuTama. I'm not sure whether to be appalled or amazed at how special he is.

Holy moly! That is a whole lot to fake though, it's possible it's not all true? But it likely is. There being absolutely no record of him, even among the Rebellion, is a little much. I would like to know what went down 300 years ago though. That said I'm fine with him for now. He's got more catchphrases than Lucky, but I love the way he talks. Oresama this, Sunawachi that, nantekotta. It's just fun to listen to haha.

I'm sure Phoenix Soldier is on the fast track for a valuable lesson about Nakama or whatever. He looks like he's on a similar arc to DekaBreak.

I finally forced myself through the end of Ghost (and gave up on the supplementary stuff like the Alain chronicles and what not) I'm finally ready to start Ex-Aid! I haven't been mousing over spoiler bars and whatnot...but this season is generally accepted as better than Ghost, right?

Honestly the only real issue I have with early Ex-Aid is that the way certain characters act for most of the first half of the show while it kinda makes sense by their characters and the plot during those parts, it also gets really old, really fast

Ex-Aid will test your patience around episode 11-12 but you need to stick past it because it's one of the best Kamen Riders in recent memories. It is entirely possible it's going to end stronger then Drive did.

The writer was responsible for Densha Otoko, and the Director has done most of my favorite shows, so I am decidedly hype. And that's without getting into the incredibly good suit.jivjov posted:I finally forced myself through the end of Ghost (and gave up on the supplementary stuff like the Alain chronicles and what not) I'm finally ready to start Ex-Aid! Ghost was garbage, but I actually did like the Heroic Legend of Alain. It was short, but cute, and Necrom actually got to do some stuff unlike the second half of the show.

I feel it's worth noting the head writer was the head writer for Densha Otoko the TV series, not the movie. Honestly I think the TV show is better, so this works out fine by me. Ryuta Tasaki directing yet another Rider show is pretty much non-news at this point. Basically if you liked the overall directing on most recent TV Riders, that's what the show will be like  Hope the guy who directed the last two eps of Ex-Aid returns, those had pretty cool scenes.

Tasaki directed Drive and Ex-Aid, but not Ghost. The Build hype keeps on... Increasing. I never saw the Otoko movie and always forget there was one, but I am glad to have it confirmed it was the Series guy. Loved that show.
