i swear to all things good i will become an actual sexist if i see another 'criticism' being 'mei not rider, therefore writing bad', and i hope that revice and any future seasons have no female characters in sight just so we can avoid this criticism ever again

Jokes aside, we don't need every character becoming a Rider. Being a strong character doesn't have to involve people transforming into Riders. While I do like the seasons with a lot of Riders, I do think that the shows with only two to three Riders total are among the strongest of seasons. Den-O, W, OOO, Fourze, and Drive are among the strongest of the seasons, and they didn't have all the characters becoming Riders (well, if you count Ryotaro as the 'real' title Rider of Den-O and the Imagins as the form changes before they start actually transforming on their own).

If anything, I feel like making characters into Riders just because weakens their character, because it makes it feel like "You only have any worth if you can become a Rider."

But I think we really, really need to lay off the accusations and name calling here, because as Damienthathedge said-

If Karate Bugmen got you this upset, you might wanna rethink your priorities. It's just a man in a suit man, calm down.

- At the end of the day, it's a TV show aimed at boys that a toy company has the biggest say in what happens.
