I think you're misrepresenting a lot of points.

My initial confusion came not because you were being critical, I can understand being critical of things you like, but because it seemed as if your posts were outright negative and hostile towards the show. It really did read as if there was nothing in the show you were enjoying.

Nevertheless, Suzu is right that you really cannot compare the two shows because they both have two different purposes. Despite the last several years of Rider shows being more childish, Rider has always been a more story driven series compared to Sentai. Most of the time, if you skip an episode of Blade, Ryuki, OOO, W, etc, you missed out on something. Wizard was pretty much the first true filler-esque Kamen Rider series since the Showa era.

And this definitely works better for Rider than Sentai because of that smaller cast. Sentai has to rotate focus and thus tries to become a character based series rather than a story based one. The shows that buck this trend are few and far between.
