Yeah, well, I know that feeling. I actually wrote the opening post and the one about Drive in Notepad and just copy-pasted them here. Believe it or not, those are what the refined versions look like. I can't even begin to imagine how incoherent I'd get if I just did this stuff off the cuff.
This. Although I feel a lot of Rider themes do this too. I remember reading one person saying that Rider themes are more J-Pop and fit in as normal songs while Sentai themes are just for Sentai. I think the meanings behind the lyrics are what connects the song to the show and they have to work harder to remind you that it's related to the show since Sentai always announces the team name and the Rider themes don't most of the time.

It just goes to show how Kuuga is part of a sort of transition between two styles of Kamen Rider. You know, Kuuga has a proper "bragging" theme song. Agito just has a normal song but the name is still tokenly in there, and then Ryuki completes the evolution by just being a song.

Kuuga's OP is still very much Showa in nature IMO. This faded away as Heisei progressed; I think after Agito they even stopped mentioning the titular hero’s name in the song for a while. But I love it, Kuuga's opening music is one of my favorites.
And did you know they made a "Masked Rider" version of Kuuga’s opening song in English? It’s hilariously terrible. |

Metamorphing Mas-ked Rider Kuuga.
Well, it's about the same as the Japanese version Also, I need a lyric sheet to this. His accent is too strong, I have no idea what he's saying half the time

That's why I said most of the time. Kuuga, Agito and Drive are the only Heisei exceptions I can think of. Also English Kuuga, I can't understand what he's saying so it isn't terrible besides METAMORPHING MAST RIDER KUUGA! I heard one for Time ranger. They like English in Japan, most of Drive's belt calls reflect this.

I'm also pretty sure the "got it move~" in Just Live More is supposed to sound like "Ga i mu~" too, which is kinda neat.
