Emu is a Mary Sue...
Just because you're an honestly kind person doesn't make you an unrealistic character. Like... what the heck? And that's before we get into how much shit they put him through on a regular basis and the out and out frustration that would come from having your only potential allies being a pair of anti-social, arrogant jerks who belittle you at every opportunity. Fuck, I'd say I've met more people like Emu than I've met Taiga or Hiiro, and I'm one of those people who kvetches about being surrounded by idiots and assholes on a regular basis. The fact that he's in a career path that naturally attracts idealists and kind-hearted folks for the most part, even if it might chew up that innocence at some point, actually makes it more realistic. That and his severe lack of all-mightiness or having everything go his way... Do you even know what a Mary Sue IS? Last edited by VoidinToku; 04-16-2017 at 02:34 AM.. |

I'm trying to say it goes way too light hearted and it kind of overshadow the seriousness of the show. I don't need the show to be like KR Amazons, but it's definitely a level below Gaim. I don't know why some people still think Ex aid is similar to it. It's still better than Ghost though.
I wonder if the show would be better if Brave or Snipe is the main protagonist instead of ExAid. However, nowadays the main rider and red senshi needs to be the unrealistic and positive all out nice guy. Guess Emu needs to be Mary Sue. He's heroic and shiny at the same time. Tendou was the lead. Kenzaki was a bit of a cunt at first before character development. Takumi's an ass too. Shotaro's an endearing dork. Gentarou is comically stupid. Not to mention having Hiiro or Taiga as protagonists makes Ex-Aid lose something that it does very well, great side characters as Emu usually has to take a backseat in development

Yeah, because Emu actually being a jack ass refusing to work together because a patient is too important to him, which ended up making him go beserk and attacked his allies is a Mary Sue thing. Not to mention pretty much EVERYTHING about the M persona. Emu's also very naive
People compare Ex-Aid to Gaim because of it being surprisingly dark, with 9 onscreen character deaths, Kuroto killing thousands and with the virus and with surprisingly accurate representations of doctors like how some cases doctors ignore patients having different cases (Tsukuru and Burgermon) which end up having worse consequences or better yet, that doctors can't save everyone. Tendou was the lead. Kenzaki was a bit of a cunt at first before character development. Takumi's an ass too. Shotaro's an endearing dork. Gentarou is comically stupid.

I felt Emu is too similar to Takeru from Ghost. It's just like how people used to say that Wataru is too similar to Ryotaro. I don't think we had a character like Kiriya as the main hero in the rider franchise yet, so it could have been interesting idea too. I'm still wondering if M is evil at all since he's the original bugster. It would be interesting if M separate from Emu and becomes ******* and they both try to defeat each other to be the sole survivor.

That's not what a Mary Sue is. A Mary Sue is, first and foremost, a character that is purported by the show to be super great and awesome and loved by everyone, and if someone doesn't like them, they're the villain in the situation. If it was just "a character kids can look up to", it wouldn't be a very derogatory term would it?

I see what you mean and in a manner of sense, you're right, but Emu's a more emotional character and unlike Takeru, he drives the story himself. Takeru reacted to everything that happened to him during my time watching Ghost but Emu acted too. He's the one who found a solution for stopping Kuroto without killing him, he's the one who got the Drago Knight Hunter Z armour to work, to get the 4 Riders to co-operate. And again, M's a factor of his personality which is pretty damn neat to see. Also please spoiler that name or something as the guy's not been officially confirmed yet and could have been spoiled for someone

He didn't even need to use the in game items like last time. Is Snipe damaging himself with the prototype gashat and we don't know about it yet? or perhaps Brave is diagnosed with some kind of illness.

This episode is really interesting and fun
Nico as Ride Player is really powerful and she is first Ride Player who can destroy Bugsters and she become strongest Ride Player. Ren Amagasaki's fight as Bugster is very very funny. His Bugster abilities also looks very funny as well Sometime, Ren is really remind me to Oren (Kamen Rider Bravo) from Kamen Rider Gaim. |

Brave is still rocking that DkHZ and taking down bugsters twice as strong as him. I felt like levels in the show doesn't matter anymore just like DBZ. There's still so much backstory about the bugster not reveal yet including Pallad. I wonder if they'll skip his bugster form like Kamen Rider Saga's fangire form in Kiva. So far the bugsters will never die and will return stronger each time.
