Kamen Rider Ex-Aid
: I'm really enjoying the story in Ex-Aid so far. it Feels like the writers have a clear plan that they're working towards and I'm enjoying how the characters interact with each other. On the other hand, the suits are uniformly garbage. Dangerous Zombie is reasonably all right, but the rest are just terrible.
Kamen Rider Ghost
: Ghost was a fucking disaster. It generally felt like it wasn't going anywhere, the characters were all terrible, and the action is some of the laziest in franchise history. At this point I can easily say it's beaten Kiva as the worst Rider series of all time. For something good... um... the Necrom Driver had a cool voice?
Kamen Rider Amazons
: Amazons was a really fun show with some good, more adult storylines and themes. It felt like it really took awhile for it to get going, though, and the early episodes didn't impress me much.
Re-watch
: n/a
The Fake Leather
: One of Amazons' best features were the suits; both Alpha and Omega were really cool costumes. They're made even better by the fact that both Ghost and Ex-Aid have really bad costumes. I mean, most of Ghost's base forms are okay, but they're generally hampered by all of the terribly clashing hoodies.
Henshin Belt
: Again, Amazons is the only show that wins out here with its 40-year-old belt design. The Gamer Driver at least makes cool sounds, but it's garishly ugly and the Ghost Driver is really clunky and has way too much noise coming out of it.
Weapon
: Again, Amazons did this well with Omega's Violent Break while the mainstream Rider shows fell flat. With Ex-Aid it at least makes some sense that the weapons look silly, but the weapons in Ghost are pathetic, especially that stupid hand staff that Spectre and Necrom used. They may as well have shot foam darts, they were so obviously just plastic toys.
The Vroom-vroom-vrooms
: Amazon had a nice update to the Jungler, I struggle to remember Ghost having a bike.
Villains
: I'm liking Dan as the villain of Ex-Aid right now, even if I find his method of video game development highly questionable. Adel from Ghost was terrible, especially the bullshit redemption arc they tried to pull off with him in the last episode (which lasted for all of two minutes before Takeru killed him anyway).
Merch
: The only merchandise I got this year were Shodo vs. figures. I like all of them, but am a little bummed that Stronger is so hard to get a hold of.
Movie Taisen
: Haven't watched it yet.
Epilogues
: The only one I watched was the Chase movie, which I enjoyed. Still need to see the Drive/Crap Movie War.
The Battlecry
: Armour Zone is the best Rider theme in years with Excite not far behind. I always fastforwarded through Ghost's opening theme.
Bonus Point:
Just as a reminder, Onari is the single worst thing to happen to Kamen Rider since Toei let Toshiki Inoue write the OOO section of Movie War Core. If you disagree then that's your right, but you are objectively wrong.
