Ah, the series that aired on my TV and recently ended. I missed some part due to schedules but here we go. I have to give it to Build for instantly jumping to the plot from the beginning like Banjou's fugitive status and Sento's past and searching it out to Faust. I also have to say Build's Rider henshins are my favorites with the visual aesthetics for "armor engineering".
What if the true Shotaro/Philip mechanic was....Sento and Katsuragi?! "We are two scientists/Kamen Riders in one". Both are foils to each other where Sento befriends others, adapted through Build Station, and wants to protect humanity, but Katsuragi sees others as tools, unable to handle Build's more powerful forms, and only focused on destroying Evolt. Sento is when Kuroto is a total goody-two-shoes (he has a bit narcissm but he wants nothing more than doing good and helping everyone). Sento also lowkey looks like Taiga.
Banjou's first name is Ryuga, and his Rider form has a kick where a Dragon burns the Rider's legs to kick....is this a coincidence?! His Cross-Z Magma form gives me Agito Burning form vibe. I thought at first Banjou is the one suffering the most with fugitive status, turns out Sento matches/surprasses him in that. I have to commend him for doing much fighting in human form against multiple enemies (One of the few cases was Alain in Ghost).
Misora as Mii-tan immediately reminds me of Poppy, especially that it's from previous season. They created 2 heroines with secret idol persona back-to-back.
Sawa was more than just a reporter who is a KR fangirl (and a promoted one to help them and stay in nascita), being a spy to Namba.
Why Grease's human form has almost similar name to Banjou's dead girlfriend?? (Kazumi, Kasumi). Did Banjou even realise that? He calls Grease Kazumi. So as Cross-Z has fire/magma themed upgrade form, Grease goes for the opposite for ice-themed Blizzard form.
Gentoku's the most varied character for sure with many roles he assumed like being Night Rogue, the scheming leader, then exiled and finally as current Kamen Rider Rogue on heroes' side. And wtf with him goofing around with horrendous fashion sense that time.
Utsumi always seemed creepy and unsettling to me from the beginning even when he was calm (his glasses doesn't help), comes full force when joining Evolt. Though he's not as evil as it seems (backstabbing Evolt), the heroes still seemingly doesn't care for him at his death (deservingly so tho).
Evolt is the "your important figure is the mastermind all along" villain in form of Soichi Isurugi aka hipster dad.
I've always prefered Build design wise to others (for Genius the bottles in the eye kinda ruins the looks). The other one I liked are Rogue and Cross-Z Magma perhaps. Genius form sure cannot match the villain (Evolt) most of the time which seems a wasted upgrade. What I dislike is that its stats aren't superior to FullBottle forms. Gold Rabbit and Silver Dragon hilariously canonize the "Sento and Banjou are best match" gag like the Ep. 1 title and it's used even in the "back to base form" final fight with degrading Build and Evolt powers.
