[NGW]

W is probably the easiest to recommend. Kickback made a thread asking for a season recommendation and someone, I believe it may have been Switchblade, did a fantastic write-up giving several good reasons to check it out. It's really easy to recommend because it has a lot of aspects that can appeal to different kinds of rider fans. It has a lot of fun, lighthearted moments that appeals to the crowd more interested in something like Fourze or Den-O. It has some nice drama and serious moments that can appeal to those of us that love Ryuki or Faiz. It's a near perfect balance between the two. It also has some of the best characters in the franchise, including one of the strongest leads in Shotaro, and a fantastic set of primary antagonists. And the action is absolutely top-notch stuff. It even has some decent movies.

Ryuki I'll just recommend as my personal favorite season that, while not without its flaws (mostly from a somewhat tough start and some inconsistent logic regarding the "rules") but there is more than enough quality there that I can look passed all that (even if the last 10 minutes of the season pissed me off for like a week straight). Good fight scenes, some INCREDIBLE characters, and it manages to be a "dark/mature" season that, for the most part, does that aspect right.
