A recent magazine interview offers several key insights on the newest Hesei Rider from the excited new director, Ryuta Tasaki.
Highlights from the interview include: Quote:
*Gaim's various dance teams are a symbolic tribute to Japan's Warring States.
*Both Tasaki & head writer Urobuchi had grown tired of the "2 Rider" default present since W. In addition both are big fans of Kamen Rider Ryuki, which inspired them to work towards a drama-focused series. *Urobuchi's main goal for the early arcs of the series is to "...build up a story that most fans are used too, only to tear it down with new and surprising twists." |

As the dancing is symbolic, I hope that means the choreography gets better, because although brief, the dancing in the first episode was still terrible.
I personally love the idea of more than 2 Riders, again, but so far Rider seems to have had a minuscule budget compared to sentai, with Wizard being probably the first Rider show that even felt close to the scale and flash of the sentai running at the same time. So I'm having reservations about this whole multiple Rider business, especially as it appears they'll all be like their own mini version of Os rather than Ryuki/Dragon Knight where they just gave the Riders unique costumes and moves, and they weren't actually like flipping through ranges of forms and weapons on the fly. I mean if the projected Riders does come true, then what, are we going to have like forty five Rider suits for this show? It just seems ridiculous. And as epic as that sounds, I just can't comprehend how they'll afford to put it on screen. I will be looking forward to more plot focus though, as Wizard presented a cool story and a cool world, then pissed it away by focusing all its effort on Gates that were ultimately meaningless. Also, whose head is being bitten off then?

I like those bullet points. Can't wait to check out the first episode soon.

This man is my hero. Between him and Urobutcher this could shape up to be one of the best heisei series! Ryuki for inspiration works for me

As long as dancing does not stick to being Beyblade-esque, I'll be happy. No idea what he means about tearing down expectations, but if he actually does it right, I'm good with that.

I'm glad we're getting more than just 2 Riders in this series, I was getting disappointed in them. Blade and Kabuto are some of my favorites with lots of Riders and I hear Ryuki is excellent so that sounds promising.

Sounds good, not seen any of urobutcher's stuff so I guess I'll just have to wait and see =D
I dunno if it's just a cultural thing or what, but the dancing in Toku always seems to suck =/ |
