Kinda/sorta/not really. Those are the only real Kuuga references we get and they're never mentioned again. Agito very much stands on its own (awesomely).

Agito while it makers reference to Kuuga isn't a sequel show and the references are only in G3's design.

Agito is like that as a whole. It's pretty much a mystery show which is quite interesting and one of the reasons the show works so well. It's based solely around the story and characters, all of which are tied into the mystery of what exactly happened with the Akatsuki. The more you watch the more you'll know.

It's one of if not the best Rider show I've ever seen, and it's definitely, definitely worth a full watch through.

THat's pretty much the only time anything is referenced to Kuuga. It is assumed they are in the same universe, but nothing else to link them.

My guess is that Toei was considering on bringing Kuuga back but the actor probably refused for whatever stick got up his butt.

Oh man, pointless secondary cast? I love the Old man, Shunpei Nara, and Kosuke Nito are may favorite parts lol but that's kool, Im on episode 38.

Not a hater as such, but I do watch the show a little more critically than your average person in the thread who comes in there just to go 'I have killed nine virgins in your name Gaim, may your quality continue' and leave again.

I don't agree with you often, but I agree with this totally. Why would a finale of a show overshadow their primary Rider with a secondary one? Why did they build up for so long and explain so little? Everything I liked about the series was drowned out in mindless chandelier kicks.

I hate Shunpei with a passion. He is one of the worst Kamen Rider characters since the dude in 555. Even the conductor in Den-O was more important than Shunpei was in Wizard. In fact, Shunpei made a better woman than a man. Hell, he would have been a better female companion than Kiyomi, who is by far the most useless female in the history of Kamen Rider and that is saying a lot.

Hibiki 09.

The action is getting a lot better, or maybe my eyes are adjusting to the quality of these rips, but the monster designs are legitimately awful. Even if this was a showa rider I'd laugh at those pathetic suits. It barely looks like they're even trying to differentiate the suits and costumes any more, so it's basically the same monster over and over with a different CGI abomination to wrap it up.

Still the biggest problem for me is Asumu, I know people have gone on about the 'coming of age' story that Hibiki is "truly about" but there is no attempt to weave the a and b plots together as one cohesive unit. So while Hibiki is driving the main plot AND providing all the thrills, we have to cut away just as we're getting invested to Asumu over sleeping or getting hit in the face with a handbag. It's as frustrating as it is plain boring. Even when we cut away to Ibiki who is like the backup of the backup, he brings more than Asumu does.

Truth that is true about many things right here :lol

They exist? I mean I've seen critiques but I've never really seen an outright hater.

My guess is they sound like this:

"dude dat shows G@Y!!!!1! shows bout fruit b for LOSERS!!1!!!
cod modern warfare FTW i did your mom last night"

And no, the @ is not me censoring, I'm literally suggesting that people would use @ as a legitimate substitute for the letter A.

Fuck Ke$ha.

I watched episodes 6-8 of Rx today in between E3 press conferences and they were pretty awful. The first one had these three demon monsters that are just down right stupid looking. Of course, the entire episode was stupid. Then there was an episode where Kotaro is for some reason a wanted criminal but it is never explained why or how he is cleared of the charges.
