I'd happily take another show like Gaim in terms of pace and story focus, but I would like a lot less Riders this time around so we can focus more on the individual characters that matter.

I know for most MOAR = BET0R but I'd still happily take a show with only one Rider if he was a wonderful, lived in human than fifteen Riders who are all paper cut outs. Not saying that is the case with Gaim, just speaking generally. But in terms of toy sales, I guess after Gaim, they're gonna be trying to churn out as many Riders as they can in these shows.

I'd also like a much more focused gimmick too, if we could. Gaim's action is getting better, but I found much of the middle a slog not just because everyone was using Sonic Arrows but also because it was such an unengaging weapon in the first place.

I'm not sure what the tone will be like this year; has anybody here seen any of this writer's anime before?

６月定例議会の最終日、閉会し、諸般の打合せを行い帰宅しました。 車の外気は33℃の真夏日となっています。 今日も新仮面ライダーの撮影を行っています。 暑い中の撮影は大変そうですね。

I'm scared.

Concept sketch from someone "with knowledge" supposedly. It WOULD match up with that behind-the-scenes shot...

It definitely resembles what we can see on the new set pics.

That does look very similar to the set pictures. Only really significant difference I can see is that the actual suit in the set pictures doesn't appear to have the exhaust pipe "wings" on the helmet that are shown in the sketch.

I honestly really like the design if that is what it is.

Reminds me of this....
