I still love W and OOO more, but Gaim is almost equal to them in my mind. Thought to be fair, W was my first season I watched completely through.

But back to the friends bit, should I start a bunch of freshmen joining my college's club on Gaim, or should I ease them in with a different season? What are you guy's thoughts?
No, start with Gaim.

While it is a very hated series to old time fans I would say Decade is a good jumping off point mostly because it will give your friends a taste of the moves and powersets of the pre-Decade heisei riders.

Decade has a story with no real pay off, but Decade has some reallly great action that will hopefully get your friends to like the action of Kamen Rider so when the time comes to watch other Kamen Rider series your friends will come for the action and stay for the story.

Decade is also only 31 episodes

p.s. sorry about all the grammatical errors and how long winded that was :o

Funny you should mention Decade, I first knew of Kamen Riders through him because of the Shinkenger crossover (my first Japanese tokusatsu show). I might consider it, though they'll likely be more confused than anything else. Plus, I wouldn't want to give a friend Age of Apocalypse before he or she has seen a single bit of normal X-men. I love alternate realities, but they're better when you seen the thing they deviate from first.

Decade, OOO, Blade, Gaim, Agito, Kabuto, wouldn't be bad to start with. I started with Wizard, I saw the first episode and fell in love with it. Should probably continue with that series lol.

I agree. Sharpen your courage into a Blade, be the Trump Card. Round ZERO is starting now.

I'd say some of the best ones to start out with are:

Black - A great showcase of what Kamen Rider is about and the best of the Showa era

J - The best out of the 90s movies. A great little self contained rider story which is sure to keep y'all entertained

Agito - IMO the best KR series ever. A phenomenal story with great characters

Decade episode 15

Why are there two Den-os?

Obvious movie bait!

For that matter, when did Momo and company suddenly gain the ability to posses people that aren't Ryotaro? They can do it in the Decade crossover and the Chou Den-O movies, but in the show (as far as I've seen, at least) they can only control Ryotaro.

Decade episode 16

So that's the legendary grandmother Tendou's been ex-positing about? Huh. Pretty cool.

That guy with the eyepatch reminds me of Snake. SNAAAAAKE!!!!

That Thebee vs Faiz Accel fight was pretty crazy.

Agito episode 29. Yeah, like we needed another pointless filler episode. Oh well, at least this this one was kinda entertaining. I have trouble believing that Hikawa would forget the release code for the GP-05, however - it's just three-digit code, and there's only so many possible combos of 1,2, and 3.
