Subs are up? Time to start begging for YouTube links while I fail to find playlists myself.
Purposefully did not watch the stream this week as I want to understand my first experience with Drive, so I'm looking forward to seeing this episode.

That's the best description of gain I've heard yet!

Just watched the subs and I don't think this is going to be a series for me. It wasn't horrible, by any means. I liked the story. I love Drive's design, I love Trideron. The belt just doesn't shut up. And I know it talks, but I mean "Fl Fl Flare!" and all that. I see it becoming like Shadoobie touch to shut up and ruining any sense of drama the show might have. And the unit he works for is just a little to goofy for my taste. I think this'll be one of those series' like Toqger. Where I like the toys but the show doesn't do anything for me.

I thought it was a fun episode and I can't wait to see where the show plans on going. I didn't like the humor that much since most of it fell flat to me.

I'd just like to call it now that Shinnosuke's old partner will be a villain at some point.
Well then, that was...something...yeah I'm going to be honest, I'm not digging it so far. I like the suits, the action is pretty cool, but everything else isn't really working for me. I'll watch episode 2 since it is the followup/ending of this case. But if it doesn't really do it for me either then I may not watch Drive.

Not sure that anyone else noticed this yet but, Shinnosuke specifically says as his partner's dying that "While the rest of the world was frozen, there was one person fighting to save us."
Clearly Shinnosuke is not the first Drive. When you look closer at the silhouetted Drive from the beginning of the episode you should notice 4 things. 1. No spoiler on the helmet. Just two antennae. 2. No tire bandolier across the chest. This Drive used the shift cars to fight, but may not have had Tire Koukan abilities. 3. He rides a motorcycle 4. The suit is actually black. It's not a shadow or silhouette, the initial Drive is actually a black rider. Now the color could be subject to change depending on what or if we find out about this guy. But as is that suit is definitely black in place of Shinnosuke's red. I think we're about to get some crazy Kamen Rider Skull type action going on here. Possibly a character that used to be Kiriko's partner. Maybe even something wild like her father, hence why only she knows about Drive and the Pit. Or equally as likely, Chase was the original Drive. Hence the motorcycle.

During the raw I thought it was just some subtle forshadowing but thanks to the subs this is clearly the one that used Drive before Shinnosuke did. He even uses a Bike instead of Tridoron during the Global Freeze.
It will especially be interesting to see how this man is since not much time has passed between the Global Freeze and Shinnosuke becoming the new Kamen Rider Drive. |

Definitely makes sense considering that the shift cars were fighting during the whole slowdown event. So a Drive before Shinnosuke makes a lot of sense.

This episode was pretty good. I wasn't all the way into it, but it's a good start. Hopefully the second episode will bring more to the plate, as I've seen past rider series that didn't wow me with their first episode that I ended up liking later. Hope I end up liking it better than Double, which I barely got a feel for at all, despite liking the characters.
But yeah, overall, I thought the episode was alright. Interesting set up, with the monsters, causing time slowdowns. Shinnosuke seems liek a cool protagonist so far and I hope to get a better view on the rest of the police force as the show gets underway. I thought the fight at the end was pretty awesome. Am I the only one...who finds that The Drive Driver isn't even remotely as annoying as Wizard's? At any rate, that rider kick at the end was amazing. |
