As I said. Artificial slime.

And wasn't it SOLU? (An acronym for something. Soul of the something Universe or whatever. I'm probably way off :lol)

I agree with sano

Right, SOLU was the name. I checked on the Rider Wiki, it stands for Seeds of Life from the Universe.

Well, I got one word right :lol

Okay, that's two "Misaki" names in that many KR series. There was another one in Kabuto.

Tackle from Stronger also shared that name.

As for Fourze, Nadeshiko's last name being Misaki was actually a pun on Yuriko Misaki/Tackle from Stronger because Gentarou represents Shigeru Jo, aka Stronger himself.

And I think it's no coincidence that we also had someone with that name in Kabuto because that show ALSO referenced Stronger.

Learn something every day. ^_^

I actually haven't posted in this thread at all. :lol

But yes, to answer the basic question with how well my Jayd fic has been recieved thus far I'd say that the idea of a female lead could very much work. However, with how the franchise traditionally has a male lead I can't imagine Toei making a female main rider anytime soon.

Not like it needs to though as the franchise already has several notable female lead characters that aren't riders. Just look at W and OOO if you don't believe me.

there's tons of Showa references in Fourze, not just stronger.

Still lagging well behind all the Kotaros.

Yep. All the Rider Club members' names are references to the Showa Riders.
