Minus Wizard and to an extent Fourze - out of every Rider show I've seen, that has multiple Riders, and I actually liked, two is the magic number for me.

In Wizard, unpopular opinion, but I found Haruto charismatic enough to carry the show alone. I liked the Mages a lot, but if you cut them out of the series you would never have noticed and I personally found Beast a complete waste of air until like the last ten episodes, and getting good that late into a show...still makes you pointless.

OOO on the other hand was really the beginning for me for realising how much I appreciated the magic two. This was a show I felt severely flagged until Date came into the series and there having a secondary Rider not only saved the show for me, but dragged up to levels of greatness.

W could have done without Accel, I LOVE Accel, but he was always awkwardly shoehorned into the series in a way that made me assume the show didn't want him there. As much as I would have missed him, W may very well have been better off focusing more solely on the adventures of Skull and Pre-Gaia Memories and then W fighting the ones in the present day. A sorta of two timeline Kiva thing, but not shit. Two is the magic number.

And so on, and forever.
