The Obvious/Obscure Realization Thread

You're missing the vital context that the base is introduced in episode one... and it self destructs in episode two. It's beautifully hilarious.

I only just now realized the brilliance of helmet designs like OOO, Zero-One, and Saber; Having it be a solid helmet with only the face part having details, looking like a mask.

You could almost say they're... masked riders.

Well, I mean masked rider is technically the translation, it's only because of that one adaptation that some fans don't like the name!

It took me way to long to realize that Buster's eyes are the great big slash effect of a giant sword coming down into something. It's pretty cool though.

And I also like to believe that someone at the art department watched a bit of Den-O for inspiration. No joke, that is very Den-O Liner Form/New Den-O-ish that I can't unsee it now. Might as well call him Ura Sword Form.

Speaking of Saber, I think the burgundy-ish parts on Slash's suit is supposed to resemble chocolate, the beige is vanilla(or cookies like biscuits and crackers), and the white is whipped cream considering his default choice of book is Hansel & Gretel.
