So 10 years ago today, the first episode of Kamen Rider Hibiki aired. Hibiki is one of the very few Rider shows that I have yet to watch, but I hear the first half is good while the second half is pretty bad. Does anyone have any found memories of Hibiki. I was not watching Hibiki in 2005 since I was not a Rider fan at the time but I knew what Kamen Rider was at the time.

The first 29 episodes of Hibiki are, to me, Kamen Rider at its best: fantastic characters, unique cinematography, great music, and a really cool mythology. It's such a travesty that Toei had to shit all over it.
To be fair, though, 2005 was an amazing year all around for tokusatsu. It was the year of Hibiki, Garo, and Ultraman Max, three of my all-time favorite shows. Just a pity that Sentai was having an off year. |

While I havent watched Hibiki at the time it is kind of an important series to me.
I saw it during a time I really needed guidance in my life and the teachings of Hibiki really helped me through that. So yeah congrats to being awesome Hibiki even when you kinda suck in your last twenty episodes. |

I first saw Hibiki that I didn't know if he was a Kamen Rider or not since he's so different looking. The look as grew on me over the years. It's one of my favorite Rider designs now and I'm happy to own his SHF.

Regardless of its end sure was nice.
The Rider fundoshis, the finisher moves, etc etc. And I always felt sorry for Sabaki cause he was always being kicked to the curb by his foes.

I've always dug what little I've seen of it.
