So, in case I need to explain this to anyone, Den-O made the choice to have episodes of the TV show directly set up the usual summer movie, which, to this day, hasn't been done before or since. Sure, plenty of them nowadays do have a specific place in the show's canon (W even acknowledged it in-series), but Den-O is still one of a kind in having a direct prologue episode that aired a day after (yes, after) the film came out. It literally goes right up to the start of the movie, then ends with what is essentially a trailer. Part of me doesn't like this whole idea because it feels like such shameless promotion, but then, the whole point of Kamen Rider is shameless promotion, so what's the big deal, right?
The episode itself is also
crazy
sharp. The amount of energy it has and the way it all flows together into one big entertaining romp is peak Den-O to the point where even without an ending, it manages to stand on its own. I can't stress that enough. Watching it made me realize all over again just how much Den-O had found its groove by this point. This show is on a roll, and it ain't stopping anytime soon.
I'm honestly really sad and glad no other Rider series has done it the way Den-O did it's summer movie integration. I'm sad, because imo no other summer movie has ever felt so connected to the show proper as Den-O's summer movie what with the build up with Yuuto "kidnapping" Ryotaro for some purpose in the episodes prior to episode 27, the fact that MOTW being a lackey of the movie villain, and that the movie has tangible effects on show proper beyond a throwaway shot/line. I'm glad however because that wait for the dvd and subsequent subs would
suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
