I want to clarify what I meant a bit
I do not have a preference between lighthearted and "more serious" shows, and also of course this is a somewhat subjective comparison to begin with, and all rider shows have jokes and moments of levity even the ones many think of as being "the most serious ones", and even the ones people think of as "lighthearted" have drama and conflict
When I say "serious" or "lighthearted" I am usually referring to what it feels like (to me) the staff of the show want the general vibe to be, or alternatively just the vibe I picked up from the show
As an example, currently revice is a show that I perceive as wanting a "serious" tone overall, but is still very joke heavy. Personally I wouldn't clasify what I've seen of revice as lighthearted, but maybe others would?
I also don't really think rider "used to be darker" per se, we've have plenty of serious and shocking moments in modern rider, and plenty of goofy stuff in older rider shows. I think this mostly comes down to the style of filming at the time... I've noticed some early hesei rider shows are sort of filmed like police dramas and with low saturation, which I think gives many people the impression of "serious visual" but the tone of the show doesn't always match that impression.
Also not all shows cleanly lean more into serious or lighthearted. I'd say Ex-Aid is a good example of a show with serious themes but a lot of jokes and high energy, that I think is just sort of striving to be it's own thing. Saber is another show that I'd honestly say doesn't fit cleanly into these boxes either, I've encountered many people who view Saber as being lighter but i honestly think it has a lot of drama and the humour and fancifullness tone down a lot as the show goes, so I think it doesnt fit cleanly into being "mostly serious" or "mostly light hearted" as much as some other shows. These are kind of imaginary parameters to begin with though lol
Tbh I'd generally feel a bit safer if I was expecting geats to try to lean lighthearted, I generally have fun with shows that want to have a more "fun" energy. Tbh I think if a show is aiming to be "more serious" this can be kind of a red flag for me personally too, for Geats if it does seem like it wants a serious angle, all my expectations on if that's a good or bad thing will come down to who's writing and who's directing
The logo to me just makes me think the staff
want
a "serious" vibe. What that means or if it's good or not, only time will tell. And I also could just be wrong lol
