Random ramblings on Kabuto.

They commemorated the franchise well by going back to basics motif-wise.
Even after 10 years the designs have not gone out of style and the gimmicks were on point.
The clock-up gimmick was an awesome addition allowing me to focus on the battles and the way Tendou stylishly finished off his enemies were awesome.
Cast-off I think was awesome and clever which probably was most likely inspired from the molting process of insects.
And then the additional riders. The first wave of additional riders, TheBee, Drake, and Sasword were equally awesome.
They were really well-designed and really emphasized their motifs very well.
And then Gatack joined the club being the Kamen Rider 2 to Kabuto's Kamen Rider 1. What I liked was that While Kabuto was a red and sleek design accompanied by Tendou's cool personality, Gatack was a blue and rugged design accompanied by Kagami's hot-blooded personality perfectly contrasting the other.
And then there was the late addition but a good one... The Hell Brothers.
Their brooding personalities were that of an angry teenager but boy did they make it look good. Plus the homage to the first two Kamen Riders could not have been done any better.
From the color palette to their finishers they all screamed OG double riders.
Anyways, that is my unorganized two cents on Kabuto.
