Actually, yes you do. If you want REAL gravitas, and REAL weight, and not just make this person seem like a disposable nobody.

When a show knocks off folks every episode, it starts to lose weight fast. If all normal people do is die, why should we feel bad? It's not like they're real people, just bland non-characters, thus the effect lessens considerably.

What about The Animated Series Batman? Or Keaton Batman?

Right...so you turn on the news and see hundreds of people died. You dont care because you dont know their names or favourite colour? People die a lot every day, that's real. If we're going to keep using Kuuga as a bashing bag, then at least consider the fact the show spans multiple cities and Godai isn't going to know every person. The grongi's MO is mass murder. That doesn't make it a bad show

Yes, actual characters built up overtime dying has more impact in story telling than ones you dont know. But in this case, victim of the week being sad without real danger to their life versus someone shown being killed in coldblood, the latter is more impactful in my opinion. If you disagree, fair enough dude, leave it there.

Look dude, if you don't like Kamen Rider being darker than that's cool, good for you man but I started this thread to discuss the likelihood of that returning. You would think that'd attract like minded people, not the opposite. I think it's best you find another topic more tuned to your liking

Oh and BtAS is one of the darkest and most serious cartoons of its time so dont try that
