Personally I think, no, Fourze is not as good as some previous ones. I won't count Double because I've heard quite enough people say "___ isn't as good as Double." Double's a solid show though.

I think that Fourze needs some time to grow. I've seen it have some writing flubs and running changes that are not at all subtle to me, but I'm keeping in mind that the writer has never done a Kamen Rider show before and - unless there's something I don't know about him - has a small resume consisting of a stage play and two anime series. So a live action toku might be unfamiliar ground for him. However, that said, I do like their choice of direction. I think things will shape up better after a while.

Fourze is definitely not for everyone - it's definitely like Den-O in that it's just too silly for its own good - but I think it's something where, if it works for you, it REALLY works for you.
