Would you want Decade, Season 2?
It would seem that a lot of people here aren't really feeling Kamen Rider Zi-O. :( So... let me ask this question.
Would you rather have had a Kamen Rider Decade, season number 2? Or are you comfortable with the current Rider, and shall wait to see how it all plays out? |
I mean I'm happy with Zi-O basically being Heisei Phase 2's Decade. I've yet to even watch Decade due to my need of watching every previous Rider before him. Currently at Faiz episode 21 so I'm nearly half way there. If it was just Decade season 2 I'd probably not have gotten anything about the series in the slightest.

I was going to make a post about how disjointed Decade's plot was, and how a Decade series 2 made in the same style would recieve equal, but different disdain to the original Decade, but then I started writing some good ideas, so I'm now writing Decade fanfiction.
Oof. Will post a link when I sort chapter one. But yeah, for all Zi-O's flaws, I'm getting into it, and quite enjoying it. Sougo and Geiz get far more hate than they deserve, and as to people who say the plot's going nowhere - Ex-Aid didn't get interesting until ~10 episodes in, imo. Build was a fullbottle hunt for 10 episodes, but did have better characters admitedly (but, counterpoint, didn't have to juggle a returning Rider gimmick). Lots of people really disliked Drive for the first 10-15 episodes, and now it's looked upon fondly by lots of people. Even Gaim, lauded by many, was considered by some to have a weak beginning. |
Why settle for a magenta hipster camera when you can get a rolex watch that rules them all?

Tsukasa is a very very very welcome addition to the Sougo team.
Hell, show improved simply because he's sticking around. |
Tsukasa was the best part of Decade but everything else about was pretty crap except maybe the action. Honestly, I'm shocked at how many people have forgotten how bad Decade actually was in a lot of respects.

No, unless they retcon the original and build a new myth for him. The good things were 1st prelude taisen fan services cameos and action along with Gackt opening. Other than that, it was horrible. Anyone remember Au kuuga was the secret 2nd rider rather than 3rd? The actor shines as Jinga and he seems less enthusiastically and sarcastically in his self interview on decade and seems to prefer his garo persona. Somehow, I feel like he was sending message the suit actors does the most to sell the toys while he's just the face mascot. However, he is grateful to be ask to be back to help push the popularity of zio.

My option for the poll would be:
"Zi-O isn’t the best but it's ten if not a hundred times better as an anniversary season than flippin' Decade because they actually bothered to bring the actors from the shows it celebrates back, not create some dumb alternate universe garbage where our favorite Riders are exchanged for people we've never seen before and will never care about instead". Seriously, people apparently talk up Decade like it's the second coming of Christ now that they're bored with Zi-O, but no matter how bland and boring Zi-O as a Rider is, it's an anniversary series done right. I actually get to see the characters I'm familiar with again, we get unique forms instead of just "transforming into past Riders" and honestly, the characters and stories are much more enjoyable than anything Decade had to offer. |
In my opinion, Decade acted more of a gateway to Kamen Rider series more than an anniversary one, because I'm pretty sure thanks to Decade the fanbase have gotten bigger.
On the other hand, I like Zi-O. It's a slow burn, but so does many Rider shows since Drive. Hell, Ghost have gotten better when Necrom arrived and was at its peak when Takeru gained Grateful. It's just when he gets Mugen the show returned to donwhill. Also people gave Sougo and Geiz hate way too much. I admit I was worried with Sougo since episode one, but he is serviceable and has room for improvement. And Geiz, you can tell he's slowly accepting Sougo, but his tsundere attitude comes first. People just hate them way too easy just because Build and Cross-Z are one of the most memorable Riders. |

Decade ended with a lot of plot holes and questions that needed to be answered.
Why did Tsukasa have amnesia? What did he do to piss off all of the Riders, and why did Narutaki hate him so much? Where did Decade come from and how did Tsukasa get those powers? There's probably a lot more that I'm forgetting but yeah, these questions never got answered even after Tsukasa kept appearing in other Rider shows and movies. So yes, Decade absolutely needs a second season to flush it out more. Hell, the first season shouldn't have ended with 30 episodes. |
If I want Decade season 2 ?
Yes for Masahiro Inoue and fanservice No if I want a coherent show to watch |
Yeah
It was pretty good; watched it last month and enjoyed it way more than Zi-O so far. Certainly doesn't help that its takes on Kabuto and Kiva were way better than the actual series, but there was a lot of stuff I found to enjoy despite the disjointed ending, and how it relied on a movie to end when a series should never have to do that. |
I more prefer they make special movie for Decade instead season 2. This new movie will be explain some of mysteries or unanswered things in Decade series...

I just finished watching Decade for the first time recently, and watching it while Zi-O is airing was interesting since I could easily compare the two. Having now seen all of Decade, I can easily say I would definitely not want more of that instead of Zi-O. Decade was the second worst Rider show I've seen, I'm not even a particularly big fan of Zi-O so far but I think it's vastly superior to Decade already.
Tsukasa was the only thing I thought was good about Decade, I'm actually glad he's back in Zi-O and hope he sticks around for a while. It's nice having him in a show with coherent writing where other characters besides him have personalities. I much prefer having him around as a supporting character in Zi-O than getting cursed with more episodes of Decade. |
I'm already bored of Zi-O and dropped it, and I would immediately marathon this show 3 times over before wanting a second season of Decade.
