I didn't finish Drive either. :o

Also Tsukasa is just fun to watch,

In hindsight, Decade is still bad.

I do like Let's Go Kamen Riders a lot as a movie, but I hate the impact that it created. It seems like most of the crossover movies during the Spring time will rehash that movie.

The first 2/3 of Let's Go Kamen Riders was pretty good but damn did the last third sucked.

Not purely, no. The early part of Drive had some objectively weak elements.

In hindsight, Amazons wasn't all that great IMO. I read a similar comment a few pages ago and I have to agree. I was into it with Season 1 since it was kinda good, but Season 2 I had to force myself to sit through, it was awful.

And then I realized that I don’t really care that much for Season 1 either. Like, I can only remember about 3 moments from the whole thing and I can’t think of a single character that left an impression. They were all just there for the ride.

As a result of this I get a little irritated when people praise Amazons for its storytelling or characters because it’s all so "adult". Meanwhile I'm sitting there thinking: "Shows like Build tackle as much adult themes and handle most of them better".

Like, seriously, it's good that Amazons is a thing and created that bridge to online streaming services which can exist without the need of advertising toys, but I just don’t think it was all that good, or rather, it is a bit overrated just because it’s made "for adults". Even though it’s less adult in some of its forms than the Rider shows for kids.

Amazon is the coolest Showa Rider.

Is that controversial? I always thought that he is a fan favorite.

Maybe not the most popular ever but I don’t think anyone would hate your guts for thinking Amazon's the coolest.

Come to think of it, I couldn't really argue with any Showa pick, they are all pretty dope. Maybe if you said Shin was your favorite I would be a bit surprised but other than that? I don’t think you can go wrong with picking a favorite Showa Rider. Heisei is where it gets ugly :lol

I was unsure, I just don't hear as much praise for Amazon compared to other Showa riders :lol

Anyway, I feel that a series is best with no more than two riders.
And I feel that evil riders are dumb. The entire point of Kamen Rider is that the forces of evil create their own undoing, so having an evil rider just feels kinda dumb.
