I think Ghost might be a good first rider for fans of superhero shows on the CW. It has the same whiny but likable protagonist; bright secondary characters, often overshadowing him and even episodes begin with "My name is ..."

If you love comedies and good characters are more important to you than the plot, then you won`t find a better show. But I must warn you that the final villain there, in my opinion, is the worst in the entire franchise.

I'm watching the original Kamen Rider on Tokushoutsu and I really enjoy how "raw" the fights are compared to what we have now.

Well that's disappointing to hear, since I tend to prefer a gripping story over good character development or comedy. But Den-O is my favorite Rider design and I liked the actor in Rurouni Kenshin, so I'd like to still watch it some day.

For me, the Ghost is at the bottom of the list, but definitely not the worst.

And why would Kamen Rider take its place? If one adapted tokusatsu show went away, why would another similar show be what replaced it? I'm not against a fanfictoney adaptation thing as a creative project, but if that's your reason behind it, it doesn't make sense. And even if Power Rangers did die (which it probably won't) and even if Kamen Rider did replace it (which it definately won't) it's not like whoever was making the new adaptation would pick anyone on this site (or the whole internet) to write it. Again if you want to write a hypothetical Kamen Rider adaptation, go ahead. It's good to be creative, that's like my whole thing. But if you're only doing it because you think you're going to replace Power Rangers with it, then I have to ask where you got that Idea in the first place.

I remember I was able to get someone into Ghost while it was still airing/finishing airing and they genuinely enjoyed it.
Which I consider a fun little badge of honor given how much hate that show attracts. Though also not really since even nowadays I find people go far too comical in their hate/dislike/criticisms with Ghost that I wonder if it really is just a deep personal issue at the end of the day. Anyway that was mostly just a brief thought on Ghost given the discussion but I did have thoughts on Geats. Mostly in that I feel as though our standardized Reiwa Clip Show Episode of Geats might end up being the best one out of all of them if they take advantage of the setting their using. Given just, recent revelations and the nature of how Geats is structured, a Clip Show Episode is something that Geats basically has delivered on its lap right now. To the point where if they do it correctly, they could very well beat out my favorite clip show episode which is the one from Garo Makai no Hana which has a similar concept I'm imagining they could do for Geats. |

Who's to bet Tsumuri would end up becoming a rider?
And we haven't seen her and Neon interact at all lately. |

The actress has a black belt in karate, it would be very unwise not to let her fight. And yes, there is practically no interaction between her and Neon. However, there was almost no interaction between Poppy and Niсo, as well as between Izu and Yaiba. Part of Takahashi's style, I guess.

How is Power Rangers "dying?" Theres no reason to think that.

And honestly, international (especially Asian) content has never been more popular than it is now. If somebody were to adapt it, this would be the time....but it's probably better just to release and promote it in the west with both subtitles and dubs. Quote:
