I haven't seen anybody talk about major themes in the series yet, even if we are just one episode in. Right now, it looks like a coming of age story for Kouta. Learning about what responsibility truly is and all that stuff. I really like stories like that so I'm looking forward to more. Plus the mild sci-fi environment and somewhat mature tone are really nice. Also, JK could out dance any one in Team Gaim.

dordreff posted:The real, foolproof way to choose a first Rider: find a bugman with a cool costume, then find out who it is. If it's Decade get new eyes, otherwise watch that series. Truth. I found Fourze very interesting looking, lots of white. So I started watching it and now I'm moving on to OOO then W.

Ok, this is going now. Still have that coming of age story, Kouta is a-dork-able, and we get more development for the secondary characters. Episode one was good, but episode two is great.

Is Kouta's sister gonna get Uncle Ben'd now? Because that was a "great power, great responsibility" moment.

Plus it was for Rider hotdogs. That's.....weird. Especially for a fruit samurai to sell fish dogs

Dickeye posted:Speaking of Ryuki, I wish that was a thing someone would pick up and resub, that and Kabuto. I love watching multiple riders bounce off each other but fuuuuck TVN. There's Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight, but that really doesn't count.

I can't be the only one here who would love a Gaim fighting game. All the different riders with different weapons, it's too perfect. Maybe I'll just make some Soul Caliber characters for now.

Flameingblack posted:Pierre looks like a really fun character with plenty of depth, over just a very obnoxious stereotype like the donuts dealer was in Wizard. There's not a single person on the main cast I don't like, and at first I was worried the dance club was going to pale in comparison to the Kamen Rider Club, they very quickly made it clear they are inferior, but more than made up with it by having so many fantastic riders. Love that Acorn is a calm, collected playboy until he transforms and he's suddenly a stuttering, mumbling idiot. Yeah, this season is incredible so far. You know what? Not even that, this is an incredible tv show. There are huge prime time dramas that aren't as good as this. Let's just hope it can at least stay half as good as the first few episodes.

Monathin posted:The filler's probably not going to happen until 12-13, since that's when they'll be pumping for Super Extremely Decisive Thank God Wizard's Over War Movie Extreme. Watermelon will probably be like POWER DIZER in Fourze. To bad it won't be as awesome.

I watched the first two episodes for Wizard a while back and.....meh. Like there was a lot of fighting and gun play and magic but there was no reason to care. I want to say it's because they didn't even try to establish Haruto at the start. Like in the other series I watched (Fourze, OOO, Gaim) episode one is all about the hero before he gets his powers. Makes the hero relatable in some way so you want to follow his 50 something episode fight against evil. Wizard starts with Wizard. I'm sure it could work having pre established heroes, but the first episode gave me no reason to care for Haruto.

Potsticker posted:Double starts with Double. He's got all his powers and knows how to use them. Well then, I need to watch Double stat. And it just proves that it can be done. Wizard just.... I don't know. It's just kinda a wet fart of a start.

Blaze Dragon posted:I have to seriously ask you how you didn't expect this, considering who's behind it, what he's taking as inspiration, and how the concept of Riders fighting against each other went in previous series. To be completely fair and honest, I've only started getting into toku shows this year. The only other rider series I've watched is Fourze. But at a base concept level, samurai that look like oranges doesn't scream serious drama.

Since we're talking Ryuki, Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight. Faithful or loose adaptation?

Syrg Sapphire posted:So, honest question, as someone going into this as their first watched KR but hearing random details of the other ones - the body horror thing a constant of the series, or just something we're hitting on for this plotline? What little details I know of some of them suggest it might come up often. I know OOO had at least one story that involved a guy getting crazy fat and it gave me the willies.

Thurm posted:Magenta posted the original lines on his twitter earlier : "What's your plan?" "Attack from their rear. Slipping in through the crack should provide much less resistance than a frontal assault." Yeah. That's a line from a 90's Leslie Neilson movie.
