Yeah, I think I'm going to be on board for this show. There's quite a lot of interesting stuff that have been set up, from the whole 3 split nations, the mystery of Pandora's Box, to what exactly happened to Sento and Ryuga. Sento and Ryuga interactions already seems fun to watch, I'm going to expect a lot of heated drama between the two. The first action scene was fine enough, it showcases Build's abilities and it's cool that they play with Build's asymmetrical design with how his right and left legs can do different things. The switching gimmick probably could've been saved for next episode though, it shows a little bit too much of what Build can do. In fact that's honestly my biggest problem with this episode. While it's paced well, they introduced a bit too many things especially in the first 10 minutes. I mean lets just count them down.

That was a solid start for Build. I found a strong "Kabuto" vibe in there: the soldiers in black, the "organization", the alien factor, the "more than human" tragic people... But I doubt Sento will quote his grandma every episode.

So with Banjo's background in MMA/Boxing, I feel like it's safe to assume his rider name will be Kamen Rider Claws in reference to his more brawler style of fighting compared to Sento.
NightRouge is rather obviously the Minister's Assistant with all the evil dialogue he's saying. Also, I wonder if the Sky Wall has some other effects that make it special. I know it caused Japan to split into three separate sections. But the wall seems to have points where it ends over the ocean. So what's stopping a boat or plane from just floating or flying around those parts to get to another section? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On a less serious note; Does anyone else find it funny that NightRogue apparently has this bright red sofa chair right in front of the experimentation tanks. I don't know why, but I love the idea of him taking the time out his schedule have his minions move it into his secret evil lab. Scientist: Sir why are the Guardians installing a La-Z-Boy in the lab? NightRouge: What? You don't expect me stand for the entire Smashification process do you? Scientist: Can't you just use a folding chair or something? NightRouge: No. |

I liked it but I dislike the story-telling method of "WE WILL GIVE YOU 23434543 PLOT POINTS THAT WE WILL FOLLOW UP THROUGHOUT THE SHOW".
Now that the first 40 episodes have been plotted out for us in the intro, I can't wait for the near-end-series twist.

Just watched the first episode and I highly enjoyed it. I felt like it should have been a 2 parter though as way too much happened, especially towards the end.
Also, was it just me or did the show have two commercial breaks during it? One at the halfway point like normal and then one like 4 minutes later? |

When I heard this was gonna be the most intelligent Kamen Rider to date, I was hoping this would mean we could break the mold in character stereotypes with Rider protagonists, and we could get one more unique like Tsukasa or Shotaro....but oh well. He's at least not an idiot, so there's that going for him.
What I'm most intrigued about for the possibilities of the future of this show will be the possible POLITICAL ISSUES this show has the potential to have in its story. We already knew Japan was gonna be split into 3 parts cuz of the Skywall, but I was surprised that this actually affected each part's political stances as well. I hope this show isn't afraid to tackle these issues.
