Oh yeah, and then there is the cosplayer, who is supposed to be weird and you are supposed to like her because she dresses weird and cutesy. Sorry, but I'm tired of watching the same thing over.

Where is the innovation? Where is the new feel? Where are actors that don't look like they were just in the last 4 Kamen Rider series? Everyone looks the same. I want new. I want unique. I want Toei to stop hiding in the safe zone and actually go back to taking risks with innovation.

As for slapstick, did you not see the scene where he transforms and is as fat as Kingpin? Yeah, I get it that it's supposed to be like the armor mode of Kabuto, but come on. It's not funny, it's not cute, it's just stupid.

Yes, because only Sentai can have goofy people. Yuusuke acted goofy at times, Agito tennised with a frying pan, Shinj Kido played footy in his office, Takumi's introduced looking for stolen underwear, Kenzaki gets kicked out by a granny and is scared by her, Tendou frantically buys more meals for lottery tickets, literally all of Den-Oh, Shotaro was a goofball, Eiji was a goofball, Gentarou was a goofball, Kouta was a goofball at first, Shinnosuke was a goofball at first, and that's ONLY the main characters of what I've seen and remembered. Even then, it's not like CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT exists in drama shows like KR.
'useless female character' I kinda want to give you this, but I remember Akari actually getting shit done despite Ghost being bad
'silly man who is supposed to be the boss' Kabuto, Blade, Kuuga, Fourze, Wizard and Gaim didn't have these
'Other man who has heart but is useless' because a trailer will show EVERYTHING a character will do in the show amirite
'cosplayer' we've had comedic characters before with varying results, but the way they work is how they react to situations and their personalities
'muh innovation' Innovation for the sake of innovation is dumb. Not to mention the new video game theme, the apparent focus on patients hasn't really been done, doctors were only done by Birth iirc, etc. Oh, and again, character development might prove unique shit, as Drive proved to be quite different late game compared to other shows. Oh, and Gaim was very innovative for Neo-Heisei standards

'slapstick chibisuits' Humour is subjective, I find the chibis to be cute too, as it's also subjective. Plus, from what we know, the only wacky thing about the chibi forms is the fact they are chibi. They were made to perform surgery on victims on Bugsters or something

It's fine to dislike it based on the trailer. It's fine being unsatisfied with Rider for a few years. But it's not fine to pull shit out of your ass
