I watched the ZX special, and while it is 100% relying on your pre-existing associations of the sped-through ZX origin story with every other Showa rider, it's a fun little thing. The SHT of its day.

Watch the Accel movie special. I overall found it a solid enough sit, though I didn't really like how some of Akiko's' character traits regressed after the development she had gotten in the show proper.
And I still don't buy that her and Terui are married. Those two has like zero chemistry.

So I'm catching up on Saber ps 13-15, (ending on Caliber's death ) and I have to say... am I missing something? Spoilers ahead.
So Touma and SaberCaliber are talking, and SaberCaliber says how h fought EspadaCaliber in the past, EspadaCaliber tells him how he betrayed them to find the truth and save the world... so SaberCaliber decides the Sword of Logos must be evil! I don't get it! Am I missing something? It honestly feels like a line got skipped. I know he's going to be right, because I've seen vague stuff about the future, but it feels like such a leap of logic. If it turns out he's seen the Sword of Logos doing some dodgy stuff in the future, please don't spell it out for me, but a little "Yeah he has knowledge you find out" could help.

It's tricky to tell because of how the dialogue is spaced out, but I believe the key, at least in terms of what was shown on-screen, is that Hayato mentions he was told by someone that everything he was doing as Calibur was a good idea, which is what Kamijou initially locked on to. Another reason it might be confusing is because the "someone" is question is referred to extremely respectfully as あのお方, something difficult to reflect in a translation that makes it clear it's not just some random person off the street who planted those ideas in Hayato's head.

For something different, I ended up watching episodes 24 and 25 of Kamen Rider Decade if only because there is something of a crossover between Shinkenger and this particular KR series.

I started watching Kamen Rider Ryuki thanks to the official Toei channel on Youtube then I'm resuming watching it in a less official manner.
It's one of those few Heisei Riders I never watched (Ryuki,Hibiki,Kiva,Den-o,W,OOO,Fourze) I think the premises are interesting, but I'm having a hard time with some stuff Shinji actually did on Episode 5-6. I'm okay with the fact that he can be a bit naive, but for christ sake...he is supposed to be a journalist. A journalist is supposed to be analytical of his surroundings. Telling everything to Scissors was one heck of a mistake everyone would have seen coming a miles away. I don't know what to expect from this series, but as far as I understand it....it's just a Rider War. I'm not too fond of that theme in Kamen Rider. x) |

What Rider shows are episodes with an over all end game objective? I plan to see them first earliest to current?
