Meanwhile, it's the first Rider series since Kuuga to actually make extensive use of the vehicle past the first five episodes.

I also think they might be able to get away with it in an adult-oriented movie or series. The target audience, while still presumably largely male, is probably past their "ewww girls" phase at that point.

Rx drive a car too. I'm more bothered by the fact we rarely see insect theme riders. Gatakiriba from Os is like the last insect theme riders I can think of. Remember the times Showa era and Heisei era was dominated by insect riders. Since riders isn't doing it anymore. We should do a full insect theme sentai next year like beet/stag gobuster and two from hurricangers. Last edited by VoidinToku; 05-18-2017 at 07:52 PM.. |

Would making him a clown rider who rides a motorized unicycle make it better?

Which leads me to my controversial opinion: what's the big deal with bikes? I've never watched Kamen Rider to see him riding around on a motorcycle, and I've never really been particularly fond of motorcycle sequences in the shows. I don't really understand why people get upset when there's not a lot of motorcycle action in Kamen Rider shows, other than "but it's called Kamen RIDER" or "it's tradition!" Like...sometimes there just isn't room in the plot for motorcycle sequences...

It's akin to Super Sentai becoming a solo hero series.
It's literally in the title.

Maximum awesomeness is the big deal with bikes. Duh. At least for me, I feel like bikes are something that hypothetically makes Kamen Rider distinct, and when given some love, you can end up with a guy like Kuuga, who basically made a martial art out of fighting monsters on two wheels. It's just something that varies up the action a lot from the usual stuff and given that bikes are always going to be part of the franchise's ~iconography~, it always feels really lame to me when they just get forgotten about. Look at Ex-Aid. Everyone is actively called a Rider in that show but only Ex-Aid himself has even rode a bike, and even then only like three times in 30 episodes. That's why the Tridoron is one of my favorite bikes even though it's a car. The guy was called Drive, and he actually drove places. It was a way more refreshing and novel concept than it should've been.

Would it kill them to have a female rider as the lead in her own series?
