Better than any other villain I've seen in a summer blockbuster.

In Drive, all the Legend Rider toys are Signal Bikes that are based on the rider's bike. Assuming that the Signal Bikes function in the same way as other Legend Rider Collectibles (Allowing users to channel the rider's power), whose power will Mach get if Lazer Signal Bike exists? Lazer's or Ex-aid's?

Maybe Lazer?
Chaser would probably be Genm.

So who is this girl Nico Saiba and do you think she will play in as a big role in the series?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

The Girl who Told Taiga to take M down

Is this from the latest episode of Ex-Aid, because I haven't seen that yet.

Yeah. She only got named by magazine scans so far

It's on wiki her name and all that

She said her name in the show.

How many Kamen Riders are there as of Ghost?

As of Ex-Aid, by my count we have:

33 main Riders (counting both Black and Black RX)
55-ish secondary and tertiary Riders (depending on how you count)
27? movie Riders (I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting some here)

So at least 115.

27 Movie Riders?!

According to Kamen Rider Wikia, as of Ex-aid's current episode *cries a little*, there are 158 OFFICIAL Kamen Riders, not counting manga,SIC,stageshow or unseen riders and only counts some form differences by different users as one (IXA Save mode used by Otoya and Burst mode used by Nago only counts as one,...). 157 if you think Kamen Rider Core isn't a rider.
If you want up to Ghost, then it is 153, 152 without Core.

At least. There was a stretch of time in the early Heisei era where each movie had 2-3 exclusive Riders.

Psyga and Orga from Paradise Lost for example? Or theres Caucasus, Hercus, and Ketaros from God Speed Love

Ryuga, Femme, and Verde. L'Arc, Lance, and Glaive. Nishiki, Habataki, Kabuki, Kirameki, and Touki. And then there's Den-O, which tended to introduce a new Rider with all of their movies (including Nega Den-O, who I'm just now realizing I forgot when I was trying to count Riders at 1:30 in the morning).

Does that list include the 3 Amazons riders or Kamen Rider G?

Don't forget the Hibiki movie cause that really cranked up the count with its onis.

Neither; I completely forgot both and wouldn't count G even if I hadn't (for much the same reason I wouldn't Kamen Norida).

How come Super Sentai seems to do much better at getting previous actors back for their old roles, even years later, than Kamen Rider does? This has always baffled me.

This is complete speculation on my part but my hunch? Rider shows are less "team-based" which means individual characters/actors get to stand out more, thus more exposure, thus more roles, thus not having the free time to come back.

I know that for Tendou, Ryotaro and Godai's actors, they've all had great careers since leaving the franchise.

But Rider shows are the ones I want people back the most for...

Something I've always wondered, has there ever been any official word or confirmation as to the legal status of Kamen Rider G? I always assumed either Bandai/Toei doesn't fully own the rights to him due to collaborating with SMAP, or his suit was demolished for parts, or both.

Although if his suit was demolished but they own the rights, kinda surprised he didn't make it into All Rider Revolution, since even the First and Next riders made it, and he seems pretty popular, even if he is a parody.

I think it's because it's an unofficial character. It's also why we don't see the Akibarangers showing up for big gatherings on the Sentai side of things.

How do you feel about Kamen Rider Genm getting a MASSIVE NUCLEAR HEAT from fans and audience for KILLING OFF LAZER

According to this twitter account, https://mobile.twitter.com/OfShangri...08615383822336 One two-and-a-half-year-old was so angred by this, he took his toy Gashacon Sparrow and told his dad he was going to hunt Genm down to bring Lazer back.

If you don't know about Nuclear heat/"X-Pac heat". It's basically a wrestling term

While other methods of heat try to draw disdain, "nuclear heat" (also known as "X-Pac heat", due to X-Pac becoming a notorious example of the concept) is when the fans legitimately dislike the character (and sometimes the person playing that character). This kind of heat can often be piled onto wrestlers who are viewed negatively, either for their booking, their character or even actions outside of the show.

I have multiple feelings for this, On one hand, it's great as Genm was my favourite and he's showing he's not a dumbass villain as he dealt with his problem as soon as he found out
On the other hand, Genm's actor said 'wow zombie gamer was cool' with everyone making Gaim references in the replies
In that case, the writers are doing a good job, making the villain a scumbag you hate on purpose is something writers are supposed to be good at (See Umbridge from Harry Potter, the pink bitch)
Only criticism I have is how awful the timing was for the episode Killing Kiriya is fine, it advances the plot and shows us a tragic moment, but doing it on Christmas, a holiday about good things and all, wasn't the best idea. Otherwise you get situations like that kid

Maybe the writer did that on purpose. He think killing a fan-favorite character by a villain Rider would to let the audience know that was true beginning of a darker direction of the show.

How can you let the Audience to know that Ex-Aid will be darker than Ghost?

That's why he doesn't want people to like Genm so much.

First of all, edit spoilers in the post, because it's really inconsistent when you spoiled it in your last post. Second, one must remember that the entire franchise with the exception of Amazonz is meant for kids too, Japanese parents weren't happy with the decision of having that in a Christmas episode. You can let the audience know it's getting darker without a dark Christmas special. Genm Zombie's concept alone makes Ex-Aid darker than Ghost, an immortal enemy who's intelligent and the big bad fighting against people who CAN die makes Genm more dark than most, if not all Ghost's villains. And that last part would forget a major detail. People LOVE villains when they're done right. Have you SEEN the positive reception to Yoshikage Kira?

Something can be for kids, but can have a dark storyline. I felt like Gaim handle things perfectly with a dark story and still having funny humor here and there. I admit that I haven't follow much from Ex-Aid so far, but it looks like the show's tone has changed since the first few episodes.

It's getting pretty dark. That wasn't my issue though, it was that you shouldn't really have a Christmas special, on Christmas, and have something like THAT happen
Spoilering in case you're curious
They killed Kamen Rider Lazer, who was a popular character and at that point had just as much, if not more importance in the show than other Riders as he had Level 3 and 5 forms, and unlike Snipe and arguably Taiga, character development

Snipe and Taiga are the same person. I'm assuming you meant for one of those to be Hiiro/Brave.

What the difference between Toei Producer and TV Asahi Producer?

When Motoi Sasaki who is TV Asahi Producer was announced to be Head Producer of Kyuranger. It was first time a head Producer of Sentai Show wasn't Toei Producer

But what the difference between Toei and TV Asahi?

In my defence, it was 3AM or something when I typed that

Toei is the company that produces Sentai and Kamen Rider. TV Asahi is the channel where people in Japan watch the two shows.

Why did they really have to pick ex-aid to be the main rider in the Kamen rider vs super sentai movie? I wish they did this movie with gaim or drive as the main rider. I just hate the ex-aid dude.

Because Ex-Aid is the new one, Gaim already had his turn and Drive already ended

Gaim already had his spotlight in a Superhero Taisen movie and so did Drive. Ex-Aid's the most recent Rider; his toys are currently being sold in stores, so he’s the protagonist.

Do you have a feeling that Ex-Aid's Final Boss will be himself?

Hear me out! I am talking about him facing his evil self!

I always have a feeling that in a future, Emu will fight his evil self and I know how to introduced his evil self

What if Mighty Brothers Gashat will have a side-effect that can turned Emu's M persona into more ruthless and more Corrupted.

After all Genm is unlikely to be final boss since it would bored the audience to death. He's basically Ouja of the show! Ouja wasn't even the final boss of Ryuki! It was FREAKING Odin!

Weird question: What if M is actually an Imagin, a specific one?
I mean, red eyes, cocky and hot-headed, name starts with M, possessing a dude who has bad luck (tripping on random things, all of his child patients behaved badly, nose got injured on several occasions, two guys he wants to ally with are constantly at war)...
