Drake is the most developed character in KR
Faiz had the greatest ending Double didn't need Philip... Saban's Masked Rider is the greatest example of how to bring a japanese show to the US... I love Figuarts accessory count for Raia... Ryuki needed more Riders |

- Hibiki is great because it has so many fantastically deep and complex characters, an engaging coming of age storyline, fantastic outdoor locations, and some beautiful cinematography. - Decade gets a lot of hate because of the ending, but that shouldn't negate the fact that, up until that point, it was a really fun show and it was really cool to see all of those old Rider suits and concepts brought back with some different twists. - Den-O is fun. I love the Taros, I love Owner, I love Rina Akiyama in latex, and I'm always up for more wacky hijinks. It does suck that they've lost some of the actual Rider actors, but Kotaro has proven to be a pretty decent replacement protagonist. - The Daizyujin cockpit set is great. I loved it as a kid watching MMPR and I think it still holds up today as one of the best mech cockpits ever. It is such a bummer to realize that it's just the same set from Jetman with some red paint and dinosaur stickers. It just comes off as really lazy on Toei's part. - A decent segment of the toku fanbase has problems with the older shows. The stories are more basic, there's little in the way of ongoing plot arcs, the special effects and costumes are much more simplistic, etc. I love all of that stuff, though, and I still enjoy the highly episodic, monster of the week, scientists and/or kids in peril format of classic Kamen Rider. In a lot of ways, they do some way more inventive stuff than the modern shows. - Black RX is... well, I hesitate to say "terrible," but it's not very good. It picks up sometime after the end of Black but manages to somehow completely ruin everything it inherited from that show. Kotaro is noticeably different, the tone is much lighter and sillier, and outside of some great monster designs it just doesn't feel like anything in it comes close to the standard set by Black. - Figuarts are awesome, they really are. They're easily the coolest action figures I've ever owned. That said, there's just something so much more satisfying in the smaller Kiwami Tamashiis that attracts me more to that line. I think a lot of it is play value - the more recent figures have started adding in some cool extra features that the Figuarts don't have, like Kaixa's transforming Kaixa Pointer or Agito Trinity's weapons with the fold out parts. They do things that Figuarts would accomplish by adding extra accessories and I find that adds a lot of play value. Plus we're getting some really fun vehicles in the line now and they're all way the hell cheaper. I guess I just find the KT line to by more bang for my buck than the average Figuart. |

*Kamen Rider can never do anything wrong (except for a few hiccups here and there).
*Kamen Rider Decade is one of the best Rider series out there. *Decade himself is likeable. *Kamen Rider W is the best series ever. *Weather sucks. *Kamen Rider Wizard would have been better if he was a magical painter instead of a wizard, as was an original theory. *Power Rangers Mystic Force isn't that bad. And, just for the heck of it: *I'm Batman. Last edited by KRX; 08-04-2012 at 01:31 PM.. |

I might as well throw in some Super Sentai ones now that everyone else has I guess...
* Dairanger is overrated. Its not awful by any stretch, but its not the godly series people make it out to be. * On the other hand, Goseiger is not as bad as people make out. It has cast and story problems, but the aesthetic/mecha are absolutely gorgeous and Brajira is one of Sentai's best villains. * Sun Vulcan is pretty damn awful.

Not sure how I should reply... *currently wearing my Double Fedora and my OOO Driver lol* But yeah in all seriousness, OOO is my top rider (look at the screen name! XD), Double is second and Den-O is third, mostly due to the fact that the characters differ personality wise.
