Yeah, but Shadow Moon and Black didn't fight every damn episode. There were a lot of times when they didn't even meet face-to-face. When Kotaro and Shadow Moon fought it was always a big deal; when Shinnosuke and Chase fight it's usually just filler designed to pad out an episode.

Like I said, they need to tone down the Chase Fight! we get it, people! They are rival but will you tone down the Chase Fight!! I heard that we neither get a new rider form or a new completely Kamen Rider on March! Some says that this could tie-in with Super Hero Taisen GP: Kamen Rider 3.

Do you think they could tone down the Chase Fight?

Could? Yes. Will? No.

At least it was more exciting than the normal "O NO. Is Chase on a motorcycle in your way, again"... If only by a little bit.

Really cool how Dead Heat's jingle plays as when Tomari enters the Dead Zone. Still dislike the form, but I think it'll look better on Mach, spoiler beard and all.
Overall good episode, with a nice mystery flowing though it.

Agree with this. Shadow Moon had a bit of that "Thanos" syndrome going on in that he mostly sat around giving orders to others, so that when he DID do his own dirty work, you knew shit got real.


Regardless, yeah, I'm really not a fan of the whole "reset button" they pulled on the Chase storyline.


Oh yeah, and Deadheat is pretty badass functionality wise, but the form's design is lazy as shit. I'd be fine with a Drive/Mach combo form if it didn't look like one of those movie-exclusive forms where they were clearly stretching their budget.

Why Is Rinna Sawagami Fidgeting? sounds so dirty in the wrong context.

And I am in agreement, the Chase filler was just that, filler. But whatever. Dead Heat was the real surprise in revealing something about the "dead zone".

Also, in before someone says Rinna was dating Krim.

And did anyone else get a little creeped out by Mr Belt coming out of the backpack and jumping onto Shinnosuke's shoulder? Had a real Alien moment right there.

I just wondered if Belt-san was cramped in there... :) And quiet with your dirty mind!
I liked this one. Maybe it was due to the lack of Gou. Maybe it was due to happy, smiley Chase. I don't know, but I liked it.

DEADA ZONE!
pretty fun episode overall i like the plot of the whole thing, though i am still not a fan of dead heat and that D logo on the belt... that's a stretch and half.
