I actually remember him. That's awesome~

So he went from aspiring musician to a slimy creep to a Cherry Energy Squash.

Except that Rider 3 is an Ishinomori original.
They just brought him back since he was a manga only character.

Well he was a little criminal in Den-O too, although he had a good heart. But yeah, he was nowhere near as bad as in Gaim :lol

Also, while we're at "Gaim Next Gen Riders who appeared in other Rider shows" Yoko Minato aka Marika was the Hopper Dopant Girl in W ;)

Nah I wouldn't say that they bought him back, the manga Rider 3 and the one in the movie have nothing in common besides their name. It's more like that they created a completely new Rider 3.

But the movie's Rider 3 isn't even the same character, so he's less of an "Ishinomori original" than V3 was.

Yep. Smart Lady from 555/Whatshername from Ryuki is another early victim of the fortnight. And Elly from Ultraman Max also shows up a couple of times as Ryotaro's childhood friend.

Ryoutarou looks so confused there. :lol

Also Zanki/Garulu/Tohki/Gabi Raizou, Todoroki/Mage, Mana/Naomi, Kiriya/Zeronos, Gorou/Bandou/Mishima, and Garren/The principal from Fourze whose name I don't remember.

It's a mad world!

That has nothing to do with what I said.

I figured, but it's still the closest thing we can get. plus, there could be all kinds of problems since the actual Rider 3, being Taki, probably isn't allowed to be used in other media due to Kamen Rider Spirits.

Continuing my Den-thon, I gotta say I actually kinda like it a bit mroe the second time. Stuff like Ryoutaro's weird sister, well, at first I just found her confusing and annoying, but since I know there's something wrong with her (her missing memories of Yuuto) it's a different story.

I'm on episode 7 and it's the goofiest one yet. The disgruntled ex is just... just funny as hell. Though I never understood the mini-plot point point of Sword Form not being able to reach a flying enemy despite having, y'know, a detachable flying blade that can reach way farther than Rod Form's weapon. Momo's/Sword Form's physical acting is just the best, though.
