I heard that Test Audience who watch Ex-Aid say the show will have a dark and edgy tone and feel like Ryuki meet Drive

I still have a feeling about Ex-Aid being a Gaim-like show because a show that featured multiple riders are not light-hearted! A show like Ryuki and Gaim!

If this rumor is true, Ex-Aid might have 15 Riders

We'll see how well that goes. I actually hate dark and edgy.

I like dark and edgy. But these designs.....if the route they go, the suit designs were made like this in order to offset/balance it out.

Well your occupation says you're "murderer"

You know Dark and Edgy have a murderous character you know

If I were a tax accountant, that doesn't mean I'd want to watch a show filled with tax accountants.

"Test audience?" What would they be testing? I guarantee there's not even one episode of this show completed yet.

But... Wouldn't it be "Emyu" if it was a Japanization of "Emulator?"

TBH I feel like this is the opposite of Ghost which in it's early scans looked Dark but turned out to be light hearted Ex-Aid if the rumors are true for it being Dark will be the opposite personally I will be ok with this AS LONG as they don't make it like Faiz where it was just Dark for the sake of being dark like there were some deaths I was like REALLY

Or how about being Gaim-like show than Faiz-like show?

Gaim was a dark show but it got a humor!

I like Rider shows with more serious story and tone. That's what made get into Kamen Rider with the great action and drama in the TV shows. Kamen Rider always felt more serious compare to Super Sentai which is why I always enjoy it more. I see why we can't have a Rider show with a more serious story and drama but still have funny comedy. It work for W, OOO and Gaim.

If the toy sales are good, that's all it matters. Gaim sold well with merchandise despite poor ratings. If kids think the main rider looks cool and finds the gimmicks fun, they will buy them.

Do you think Ex-Aid might have a dark and edgy tone that is similar to Ryuki and Gaim?

When Ghost's design was revealed, Everyone thought Ghost was going to be a dark show but it was a light-hearted show. Maybe Ex-Aid's suit design was a trick to fool everyone into thinking it was a lighthearted show but turn out it's actually a dark show

There's no show with multiple riders are lighthearted!
