Kamen Rider 98.

I have reached the end at long last. I don't know whether I'm happier just to have one more show under my belt or because I never have to watch XIG subs again.

I wasn't the biggest fan of this show after I watched the first 43 episodes back in 2015 (time sure flies). But I feel like my opinion on it cooled with time. I still don't think it's that great and it had a lot of the same issues that bothered me about the first part, but eh. Wasn't all that bad either.

The ending was...something? Something. Perhaps the most anticlimactic finish to a Rider I've seen. Shocker Rider arc would have been a cool place to wrap things up, honestly. The ending was just weak comparatively.

So that just leaves two Showa series to watch. I'll get to V3 and Black RX in due time. For now, I'll be switching gears to some more Sentai alongside Faiz. Should be fun.
