This is another statement that really goes to show how polarized our opinions on Den-O get, because there's a bit from my post talking about Climax Form's debut during my rewatch that reads like this...

...and that's still very much something I stand by. Den-O to me is one of those series that just gets better and better the longer it goes on, and a huge amount of my favorite material in it comes from that second half.

You might feel bad about feeling bad about these parts of Den-O, but rest assured, it's at least fascinating seeing such a wildly different perspective. Just try thinking of it this way – the absolute worst that can happen is you accidentally creating a "Fish Sandwich rewatches Kamen Rider Den-O" thread.
