Agito is a boring protagonist because he's too passive. The show should've either focused on G3 or made Shoichi a more active character.

I think that Amazonz (both seasons) was really good and another rock solid Kobayashi rider show (for those wondering she was also the head writer for Ryuki, Den-O, and OOO). Also while I would never want regular rider to become like Amazonz, I think it would be really cool to get another side project like it every now and again. By this I don't necessarily mean that these hypothetical projects need to be a re-imagining of an older show nor does it have to be very dark/gory, but rather something that just does really weird, crazy, out there ideas that they either couldn't do or would be to hesitant to try in modern rider.

Jumping onto the last one, I don't think Kobayashi is all that great as a writer. She can write relationships like no other, but she just constantly undermines herself at every turn with terrible, badly explained logic and her characters often have a 50/50 chance of being utterly unbearable.

OOO's the rare show from her that doesn't suffer from that all that much, Den-O is almost a perfect middle ground where one half of the show sucks hard and the other is fantastic and almost switches on that on a whim and Ryuki just sucks, at least in my opinion. And some of her movies, like the decade and Den-O movie, are some of the worst Rider stuff out there.

And I know, this is unpopular Rider opinions and not Sentai Opinions, but I'll just throw that in as well. Her Sentai shows, at least the one I saw, Shinkenger, and the other I'm halfway through, Go-Busters, are just dull and suffer heavily from a lot of bad elements that undermine the few good ones hard.

All in all, she is a hit or miss writer that more often than not lands on the miss side of the fence.

Okay, here's a new one: I think Saber has been improving by leaps and bounds lately and could turn out to be a legitimately great show at this rate.

yeah me too.

Honestly when it comes to stuff like this, I struggle to remember my opinion is valid too.

I say this, because a lot of people want Shinobi and Quiz to get their own seasons, I do to, same with Kikai. But Ginga is such a weird suit, that I like for some reason, and because I would love to have a Kamen Rider show where the Rider travels to other planets to fight evil. That and it would be kinda funny to have a Ginga show in Rider and Ultraman, like we do with X.

Oh here's my controversial opinion.

Shinobi is the most boring of the future riders and if anyone deserved to get any kind of Rider Time special it's Quiz due to the lack of anything we really know about his time period. Hell like was discussed earlier, I'd even take Ginga over Shinobi.

I'd also more than welcome more Amazons-styled side-series when it's possible.

You could say the Zi-O Rider Time mini-series have been a middle ground for that so far given how much darker they can be outside of the main series (Actual murder and more serious themes don't need to be reworked for kids) and I do feel like since Amazons' success they've been more open to do web series like the Saber chronicle shorts we got during the first 15 episodes.

If anything, I'd just hope that if they do do it again, they don't make the mistake Amazons made and overstay the welcome. First season was great, second was good if excessively gory, the movie was the endcap but was also questionable in terms of story quality. Basically don't let the popularity turn it into a milked project.

I was bored out of my mind watching Kuuga & Agito.

Both main protagonists barely grew or had meaningful connections with other characters. Their villains carried no weight at all, especially Kuuga's because I couldn't even understand what the hell they were saying majority of the time with their fake language. There were times where I forgot I was even watching a superhero show.

The mess that was Decade was more comprehensive & more fun to watch. Whether or not I agree with the decisions made in that show I can definitively say they had put more effort into it than either Kuuga or Agito.

Man those two shows are overrated.

Someone who finally agrees with me on Kuuga. Never thought I'd see the day :lol

That so? I might just have to jump back into it, because my god, I felt the beginning of that show was just awful.
