Alright. It may take some time since I only watch multiple episodes once every two weeks but I try to not forget about it

I remember thinking exactly the same thing during the Axel debut. I don't remember it hitting him on the head though so that gif gave me a good chuckle
The show really doesn't pay much attention to any of the gear though, I realised that when one Rider had a transforming robot as a bike and the other had a mech walker and no one really bat an eyelid.

What about Kaixa's powerup getting pooped out of a drop ceiling?
My jaw hit the damn floor.

Awright, gonna muscle through the rest of Kiva this week. I know it's not the smartest thing to do but, I've got to: I love Kamen Rider, even the shitty ones.

V3 37: A kaijin that makes poison that turns people into dead flying squirrels. It doesn't just kill them, it doesn't just turn them into flying squirrels, it turns them into DEAD FLYING SQUIRRELS. 10/10 V3, you've reached the pinnacle of tokusatsu.
I think the writers also forgot how the Reverse Double Typhoon works, since it didn't make Shiro unable to transform for three hours or whatever. Who cares, dead flying squirrel poison!

KIVA shit
Ep 30: points up for Megumi’s hat which states “FAMOUS: I am a selected in a goblin coordinate.” I want that hat! Ut! Lost that point when Nago is suddenly shocked to see that Wataru is Kiva when, as instructed by Kivat, I watched the movie before the last episode where Nago sees this henshin happen and does not give a shit - Like Inoue, apparently! Ep 31: Uh, okay, so in Kivat’s “Last Week” preamble he mentions a “Modigliani”, to which Tatsulot asks “WTF is a Modigliani”. Answer? Check the DVD volume. WHAT?* Later, while Megumi fights Rook and Waturu shows up and henshins into Kiva, Kivat says “How dare you do that to Modigliani Onee-chan?” - So Kivat knows that Megumi and Wataru are related - but they don’t! Oh, wait - they do? WTF? Also, after a whole seasons worth of Nago raging out over Kiva, he suddenly is fine with it because Wataru. Seriously? Fuck you. Also, Tatsulot randomly breaks the fourth wall in story because well, why not, the show really can’t get much more unhinged. Ep 32: Nago’s a bounty hunter. What? You didn’t know that? Anyway, he randomly tells Wataru to apprehend a bank robber. Yeah, he tells a wimpy kid (it’s established that, when not in Kiva mode, Wataru is a complete featherweight) to go get an “armed and dangerous” criminal. Then he doesn’t even offer any back up. This, all in service to the introduction of Wataru's one true childhood friend, Taiga. One gets the feeling that Inoue was trying to get fired. I mean, this is just random stupidity. Oh, and BTW, even though they built up all this mystery as to who the Checkmate Four King is, they just show (“reveal” being too strong a word) him to be Taiga like you already knew (like how Wataru and Megumi randomly now acknowledge their familial relation - without issue, to boot!). I mean, it could have been Megumi’s other brother - there were options, limited as they were. Also, I just want to point out that Kiva sucks as a hero. He never saves anyone! They typically all die just as he shows up - not that he seems to really care one way or another. What is his friggin’ MO? On the positive side, hot damn is this a beautifully shot and directed show! The Warthog Fangire’s hunt scenes are all brilliantly shot and edited and some of the locations are stunning. Too bad the script is a sloppy “ugh, this show I gotta write” mess. * A "Modigliani" probably refers to a long or sad face, named for Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani. Educational!

Right? Like, I'm pretty sure I would remember if that was the case. Quote:

Seriously? Fuck you. I was going to bring that up but I didn't want to spoil the surprise. It's like, the perfect example of that show's casual disdain for shilling merchandise. I mean, Takumi chucks his sword on the ground all the time like it's nothing, treats his robot buddy like he's more of a nuisance than a helpful ally (although IIRC he takes quite a bit of friendly fire from Autovajin so maybe he has a point), gets his first power-up by getting it literally tossed at him, and then gets a shiny new ride only to trash it five seconds later (hey, you try learning to drive one of those things in the middle of a fight!).
