just watched that first episode:
LOVE that Alpha still has that badass personality when changed. Especially when he seemed to be choosing who he was going to fight. I totally agree it has that pre-Den-O kiddie feel to it. I'd love more series like this as well. The show is like taking Amazon, add Shin with a dash of Faiz (evil corporation), which is total awesome sauce for me. I am ready for a few figures now... |

Well I had checked the first episode out and it was okay. It definitely looked and had a tone similar to pre Den-O shows.
The characters were bland to me, and I'm sure that they will grow as the series goes on but right now I can't seem to care for most of them. The action is alright. Nothing really to impressive right now and when the guys shoot the guns it seems as though the guns are to powerful and I feel they should tone that down a bit. The suits are pretty good and I like the way they move for the most part even though the bat amazons suit wings look pretty bad. Same with any of these characters with wings. Overall though I enjoyed it and I am sure that as we figure out what happened two years ago the characters get more fleshed because right now the show is "meh". Though I've been kind of burnt out on toku and have not seen Ghost for a while so I'm sure that for people who have been following Ghost see this as really refreshing. I will be sure to check out the next episode where hopefully we get more dimensions to the characters and I get some thing out of them. The music in this show is really cool though, and it fits in with Amazons whole tone. Last edited by MrHerofan; 04-11-2016 at 11:08 PM.. |

Has it been stated if this takes place in the same world as all the other Riders? Because I can easily see it being the case. Though that's just me theorizing. Like, in this case the "Gigi Bracelets" and the Amazon belts are mass-produced tech. The monsters are all called "Amazons". It feels as if the organization that made them tried re-creating the original Amazon's power-source in order to make soldiers similar to him, thus why they're called Amazons.
Obviously if it's already been said that this has no connection, then that all goes right out the window. Still, it's plausible to me.

Man, this show is actually really, really good IMO. Holy shit episode 2 was amazing. Episode 1 was a little bit slow but it had some world building and setting things up to do, episode 2 really ramps up... everything.
Story-wise it gets interesting now, and I think the way they re-invented Amazon in this one works well. Characters are interesting too. I enjoy the extermination squad and the setup of this episode that one of turn into a wild Amazon. This might be the first adult-oriented Kamen Rider that actually works for me. The First & The Next are garbage, Shin is kinda meh, but this is good so far. Love the designs, Alpha looks really cool, Omega isn't as bad as he looked in the images but still not as good as Alpha, and the other Amazons look interesting too. Action-wise I enjoy it as well. Wire-work is a bit sloppy at times, not terrible but you can make out where they hang from and how they gain the momentum, but the fighting choreography is great. And the gore... I think it works. It's not too much, but it’s not subtle either. If they want to show cracked skulls or people being eaten or ripped apart, they do it. It’s not like with Heisei Riders where killing did happen but they never showed real gore too much because it was aimed at teenagers/kids, but it’s not embarrassingly in your face like it was with The First/Next either. I really enjoy this show so far. Thank god for the Anniversary, Ghost is currently a sleeping pill for me, at best, but this… makes me look forward to seeing more. I hope they can keep this up. |

Loved it. That's all I can say.
Plus I like it more when it focuses on fight choreography than the CGI fest of the TV shows. |

Second episode was pretty good.
Omega looks kind of silly trying to bite things though. Dude, you ain't got a mouth. But yeah, some cool action and some concrete answers about the backstory of the Amazons. Good episode. |
