Though back during Kuuga, that platinum egg chicken had barely hatched. But I wouldn't put the blame solely on them. Sometimes they really are only doing what they are being paid to do. And the auteur stuff is part of that, as well as part of their means to have the series taken seriously as an artistic nuanced program that can be enjoyed by all. Some of the coolest things in Lupin vs Pat are the same way. It's not accidental the main full team combined mecha is heavily reminiscent of Asura's Wrath. It was done that way at the insistence of side sponsors, and was also an emphasis to try and sell merchandise by highlighting how cool it is. Which is how the side sponsors got Bandai of Japan/Toei to go for it. Besides of course what these side sponsors/investors were paying for and part of how they wanted to turn a profit off of it. But at the end of the day, it is about what will also turn a profit. And in the early days that was more of a concern for longevity than it is now, because the show was still fledgling, new, and trying to gain traction. Now it's a little more relaxed on those concerns. Last edited by Librarian; 08-21-2018 at 01:42 AM.. |

I'd put Kouta on that list as well. Heisei Generations Final was probably the same in that it was a one and done deal and I'm satisfied enough for that TBH. He's the lead in an upcoming movie (along with Zangetsu's actor) as well and I don't know how much free time you'd get from that. If he were to appear in Zi-O, I would just see that as a bonus.
Also thanks Switchblade for making a list

Think any of the Showa riders can appear in Zi-O too?

Note: I don't know Japanese. Lol. Got this off of a Discord server I'm in- just some info they found. Likely from a magazine. Thought I'd share it here.
Information from Matt Hunt on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheRealMattHunt/...92617116766208 According to Matt, episodes 1 and 2 seem to be dedicated to Build, 3 and 4 are Ex-Aid, and 5 and 6 are Fourze. Grains of salts, please and thanks. Also, Zi-O has 38 episodes dedicated to Riders. With 10 other episodes. So 48 total episodes. Also, some info on the Ridewatches and Time Jackers. Aura and Wool select random people to try and make a new king. Last edited by MangaArtist18; 08-21-2018 at 11:02 AM.. |

If these rumors turn out to be true (hopefully so) then I'm surprised that they manage to bring Fukushi Shota back as Gentarou again since he is a big star now. I really thought Heisei Generation Final would be his last ride

Tribute episodes don't necessarily mean the actor coming back. I'd hope otherwise, but I'd fully expect a full suit with alternate voice actor ordeal. ... going by trends set in previous crossovers with Fourze, a pretty bad voice actor too.
