I'm not sure why you guys are moping about the choreography. This is a guy who has little to know martial arts background duking it out with monsters. Of course the suit actor is going to have to express this gung-ho kind of fighting style in such an uncommon manner.

We're all so used to having a Rider transform from an average dude to a savant in combat that we forget most of the characters aren't really "fighters" per se. Look at Ryuki and how Shinji fights (literally like crap). So Gentarou's little Vale Tudo approach to things is a lot more refreshing. He's a brawler, and it works for him.

As for the KRC, I'm really okay with them as a permanent cast. I mean these guys are essentially in every show, whether its the Santa-Chan, Queen and Elizabeth, Watcher Man etc etc from W, the ORE Journal crew in Ryuki or even Grandpa, Natsumi and Yusuke from Decade. You need a solid cast aside from the Riders that they can use to propagate the story.

I won't say "give it time" because I feel the patience of the average viewer has decreased as more series debut. I for one think the pace of story-telling is a HUGE step up from OOO which was dead to me. Like all other Rider series, you either like it or you don't and I'll proudly say I'm pretty happy with Fourze so far.
