Everyone watches in horror as Nitoh covers a Hellheim fruit in mayonnaise and devours the thing whole.

Deneb would grill them with shiitakes. And then feed Yuto. :lolol

Imagine if Accel were Wizard's' secondary Rider.

I think that sort of dynamic would be incredibly interesting to play out. Right off the bat you have Wizard being a Hope Bringer and Accel telling people that Despair is their final destination for starters, and the there's how Terui was a cop, which would probably put him in the same precinct as Rinko, allowing those two to play off one another too.

We'd also be getting rid of the redundancy of Beast being a comic relief character ontop of Shunpei already being one, and Terui's' penchant for no-nonsense stuff would play great off of Shunpei's' antics.

Plus too then there'd be the dichotomy of Wizard being magical and Accel being technological, highlighting their duality and differing ways of going about things.

Is this how fanfiction starts? Because now I'm just thinking up all these different scenarios and man, I think they'd be really fun to see play out.

Yes this is exactly how Fanfiction starts. You get the idea for a cool scenario in your brain.

Then the brainworms come in and you just start thinking of all these different things. Sometimes so passionately you just want to write them down.

Welp, it's official. I didn't know I'd say this(and at the 50th anniversary) but I think I am officially burnt out from Kamen Rider. :lolol
This doesn't mean I am giving up on the franchise, but maybe I will continue where I left off some time next year hopefully. I am probably gonna keep up with Zenkaiger and then see where that takes me. I probably will still follow-up on new info that is dropped, but yeah, I am gonna take a break from rider for the time being. I hope it's not too long.

I admittedly have given up on 3 incarnations since 2009 unless at some point in future I decide to watch them for completions' sake, it seems like the past decade has been mostly just sentai for me lol

I know that feeling. Kinda sucks, but it's not like you can control it.
I got burnt out around the tail end of Gaim, but the story kept me invested enough to finish it.
Didn't get back into it for 4 years, when I decided to go back and watch Kabuto and Agito rather than try and keep up with an ongoing series.

Thanks, y'all. :rock:

Know what I want as an anniversary Rider movie? Once Shin Kamen Rider is out, make a movie that has every version of KR-1 team up, and when they all meet they do the Spider-Man point at eachother. :lolol

Let's see:
Fujioka's Hongo
Kikawada's Hongo
Manga Hongo
Kamen Rider Spirits Hongo
Ikematsu's Hongo
S.I.C. Hongo
Kamen Rider EVE Hongo
Novelization Hongo

Yeah, it's possible. :lolol

For an extra deep cut, throw in Skyrider and Shin (Both of which were intended to be reboots, making them "Ichigou" in a sense) :lol

Three thoughts:

1.) It drives me nuts how the Kamen Rider Wiki is now putting translations on the Vistamps and stuff, a trend which started since Zi-O and reinforced with Saber. Now don't get me wrong, I appreciate the translations but now when I see the Eyecons and Gashats which have long Japanese phrases in the henshin jingles and see it untranslated I feel a bit triggered (for lack of a better word). If someone's not gonna do those I might do it myself.

2.) The Fuusouken Hayate mentions scrolls ('hayate no maki', lit. 'scroll of green wind') and in hsi debut episode Kenzan's finisher uses scroll imagery so I feel like it's a wasted opportunity to not have Kenzan's muffler thing be a scroll.

3.) Someone on Reddit pointed out that Revi Kong Vistamp, which is based on Fourze (an astronaut), has 'strong arms' (those beefy arm armor) and wonders if its a pun on Neil Armstrong (an astronaut). If the visual pun was intentional then I give Toei my slow clapping awe.

The Kong jingle is likely a pun, but IDK

the drive driver should've been called the S.E.A.T. belt

god I need to stop posting in this forum when I'm drunk

Zero-One episode 3.

Man, another unintentional Indonesian reference here. The name of the sushi-making Humagear is so goddamn accurate; I(k)kan Nigiro. Sushis can be made with fish, and "ikan" is the Indonesian term for "fish".

just remembered how funny baron looked when he had to swap drivers in his naked form in order to go from banana arms to lemon energy arms

I found Baron funny-looking without his armour too lol

^ Well, there is a reason people often referred to him as Banana both in and out of universe. ;)

My favorite part of the new OOO movie announcement is that I didn’t see it here first. It was just a random thing that popped up on YouTube for me and I had no idea what it was at first. That was a really nice surprise.

Ex-Aid is five years old this year.

That means I was 14 when it started airing. I'm 19 now. It feels just like yesterday when I stumbled upon those 'Space Invaders-looking dudes' on the Tamashii Nations webpage before I decided to check out Kamen Rider.

There's nothing quite like reminiscing on your first weekly experience of Kamen Rider to make you feel old.

Just sharing a clip of Fujioka Hiroshi in a Hong Kong movie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqZ5kReRRlU

I think the Hong Kong cast and crew must have "Semaru Shocker"ed him non-stop since Hong Kongers are VERY VERY familliar with that line. :lol

(Mods are free to take this down if there is too much blood)

Managed to get a peek at the Saber final stage. Here's some copy/pasted stuff that I got. It's not in chronological order.

-KR Tassel is a villain and steals Haouken
-Sophia Calibur is back
-The riders act out a bunch of tales after being defeated by Asmodeous?? the main trio being the 3 musketeers and Saikou Winnie The pooh?? Buster idk what he's wearing, but Slash is dressed up like an animal, crawling. Kenzan is dressed like Pinnochio
-Durandal red riding hood, and Sabela cinderella
-Asmodeus is the main villain
-Megid bros and KR Storious teams up with Bahamut
-Touma uses the literal power of friendship to summon Bahamut
-Dezast is back and teams up with Espada and Kenzan
-Touma dual wielding Haouken and Rekka with Bahamut
-Saikou gets saved by Storious and the Megid bros + Dezast against Charybdis
-Sabela and Sophia Calibur team up
-Durandal, Tategami Blades, and Zooous team up, each of the Megid bros seem to split up with the riders
-Mei is holding a script?

Seeing how Bandai is releasing tamagotchis using IPs they have rights to I wonder when we will see tamagotchis for the demons of Kamen Rider Revice. They already made Evangelion and Demon Slayer tamagotchis, and I think a Vice Tamagotchi would be perfect.

For all of his many terrible deeds that he did to develop it, I think one of Kuroto's more redeeming traits was that he didn't implement any gacha mechanics into Kamen Rider Chronicle.

I would honestly love an Ex-Aid 10 Years Later story where Kuroto -- the old-school platformer designer -- needs the Team's help against a new villain that designs freemium mobile Bugsters.

I've been saying this for ages; Kamen Rider Chronicle looks like one of the best games in ages! There's no DLC, software updates or microtransactions; there's a solid customisation system; a balanced array of weapons; a set of bosses that's celebratory of the company's legacy in a way that's downright Smash; stable online multiplayer; a lot of engaging events to keep your interest up... sure, it kills you, but everything has its flaws!

The comedy in Revice is really underrated. Papa Igarashii at the beginning of episode 15...Lmao!

I know Saber as a show may have sucked (subjective opinions may vary) but this video really makes me want a full-on Saber fantasy adaptation or something.

I just realized Vice is wearing a face mask, it even has straps that go over his "ears"

I must say, Revice's theme song has really grown on me. This is a much better rap-oriented song IMO than the PRMF or PROO openings!

Full versions of LiveDevil are dropping and it's sounding fine so far-

those rap segments

I'm not a huge rap fan so this won't exactly be my number Rider opening I would be lying if I said i hated this however.

And speaking of Revice, I just realised the other day that the reason why Vice Rex Genome is pastel pink and black is because that's Revi's base colors, keeping with the trend of Vice donning the base Rider's colors. So technically speaking I suppose Vice doesn't have an official color scheme?

What's the deal with Gridon, Kurokage and Knuckle having Lockseeds based on nuts BTW? Everyone else uses fruit, the whole show is based around fruit, why nuts? Don't get me wrong, I love their designs but it's just a weird thing to think about the more you ruminate on it.

Nuts are fruits...

I was really tempted to disagree until a quick Google search proved me wrong. Huh, the more you know I guess.

Also, I just stumbled upon the 'Mutating Magno' and 'Combat Chopper' toys that was released during Masked Rider's airtime in the States. I honestly have no idea what to feel about this but right now it's a mixture of 'that's cool I guess' and 'what on earth?".

Vice's official color is black and blue. He has tones of blue on his armor that aren't borrowed from the Rex genome. And he's mostly black being that those are apparently the color of demons

I always thought it was a gag thing. Like oh, Gridon and Kurokage are the lame ones that are bad at fighting and aren't in the spotlight and are mostly here to be a joke; so they don't even get proper fruit

Pretty much. Urobuchi said he suggested nut and seed themed lockseeds as a part of power class system and show they were a rank below the fruit kind

Yeah, and it's explicitly brought up in the show that Lockseeds are categorized in letter grades, which I believe were meant to directly equate to how powerful they were. I think it was like, all the proper fruits are class A, Donguri is B, Kurumi and Matsubokkuri are C, and then the humble Himawari, which doesn't even power a Rider, is way down in D.

I just wanna say I really like what revice is doing with Hiromi (even though I haven't seen a whole lot of him in my watch through yet). He's a well written supporting character who's also a rider. He doesn't take the spotlight away from the main characters but is well written and has his own story. His character isn't one dimensional or silly, and like he's just seems overall really good.

I mostly talk about this in reference to the Shindai siblings from saber who were supporting/tertiary(?) riders that didn't really do much.

Edit: I say this as a person who mostly likes saber (and the Shindai siblings pre-redemption)
