W, OOO, and Fourze will always have the loose thread that is Foundation X hanging over their heads because Toei dropped the metaplot entirely. :argh:

W's ending is extremely good, but it still bothers me that Foundation X just kind of fell by the wayside.

Like, I would have be happen with even just a throwaway line about how Yggdrasil was part of the Foundation or that the Foundation was involved with the eclipse ritual. Just something to show that they're still doing stuff and not just doing nothing because Toei forgot them.

Well, according to sound files hacked out of the Ghost Driver, one of the souls is Ishinomori so there's that to look forward to.

Doesn't mean there's going to be an Ishinomori Eyecon in the series though. Driver toys always have weird/extra sounds like that in them.

I think it was Fourze's belt that had a sound effect for a HAPPY BIRTHDAY switch?

Akiko was really annoying to me for the first couple episodes but she grew on me fast and had some really good moments throughout the series.

Her role in Movie Wars Core was pretty awful but honestly most of Movie Wars Core was pretty awful.

Let's not forget the most infamous thing Inoue has ever written, the Kamen Rider Faiz novel.

AKA the in-canon novel where the lead female of the series gets violently raped.

Because, you know, that's what kids who are fans of Kamen Rider want to see.

That's true. But I take points off for the forms just being palette swaps. Not even interesting ones, like Fourze's are (Cosmic nonwithstanding), just single-color swaps.

They're not palette swaps though? The helmet and chest gets changed for each one.

I'm getting a real Minecraft vibe from this robot and I'm not sure if that's intentional. I don't know how popular Minecraft is in Japan. Probably not very, being a PC game.

I would assume it has a strong fanbase in Japan, given that Dragon Quest has a Minecraft-esque spinoff now.

Out of wonder, what ARE the best suit designs sentai had?

Magiranger are my favorite because capes and because I'm completely biased in favor of Magiranger.

Gokaiger's suits are really nice looking.

Go-Busters' work extremely well for the theme and look great.

Like Burkion said, Zyuranger's are classic, and I like that the other dino sentai reference the Zyuranger costumes in their own costumes.

I REALLY like Ohranger's outfits, the gold and white looks nice.

Dekranger's costumes are really cool looking and actually look like uniforms to me which fits the police theme.

I know they have the formula, but...eh. Grateful really comes across as final form-esque to me. I mean, it apparently lets him use the power of all fifteen Eyecons, which makes it really similar to Fourze and Gaim's final forms.

Then again, Wizard had All-Dragon as his mid-season thing, so there's that, I guess.

Concerning Badteeth: He's not coming back. Toei put up the pictures of him receiving the flowers that actors always get when they're done filming their final episode of a show.

Yes. It's only ten episodes, and there's some good moments in those ten.

It started off kind of ehh, but it really is a show that's gotten better with each episode.

I have been enjoying Ghost. It had a slow start, but it's really picked up the past few episodes. It's a good show! It's not GREAT, but it's good!

That being said, this week's episode has me feeling salty as hell because come on guys, resetting the clock on Takeru's time limit? Really? That's pretty freaking dumb.

I love the Legend War and the fight from the Fourze movie where they used every Switch and Wizard was there and it was okay because his series hadn't started yet and he was still cool.

Most Rider movie fights these days tend to be pretty awesome because they all have that scene where the main Rider just unloads all of his powers one at a time.

Double unloading everything onto Eternal was great. :swoon:
