Yeah, New World has nothing to do with Heisei Generations Forever. In fact it's a pretty big thing with fan reaction that HGF2 seems to hover in this very weird continuity of its own that doesn't seem to connect to anything.

So yeah, you can go ahead and watch Cross-Z New World, and the Grease New World BluRay just came out too and is getting subbed soon; so I guess this is a great time. ... even if New World isn't very good


Either way, wow, was looking forward to this one. Build's ending is a very controversial one, and even as someone who loves Build more than any other Rider bar OOO... I will have to say that it's despite that ending. There's a lot of things about it that I like, pretty much you've already gone over it; Rogue's death, SentoXBanjou, the thematics of creating a new world... but how they get there is so, so important, and it was done just so awfully here that I can't help but headcanon my own ending and rewrites.

In general Build is a series I feel falls off hard in the last third and I've got a lot of problems with that, but as I said; second favourite rider. Still adore it, still love so much of what it did, and you've gone a long way in reminding me just what it is I did like about it. Great thread!
