I love Kotaro himself, but Black is such a boring Rider to watch fight, and pretty much every fight he has plays out in exactly the same way because he has three attacks like he's trapped in a Pokémon game or something, better leave that fourth slot open for Surf!

And then there is the story, I see sentai as popcorn toku and Kamen Rider as more of a serious drama toku but my God, this show is just a rinse and repeat of Golgom hatching ludicrously elaborate plans that are elaborate simply for the sake of distracting you that they have no actual goals at all balanced with characters who should have an emotional investment in all that is going on, that don't react to anything.
