Thoughts, now that we've seen the stuff:

-The Muteki gashat is interesting, especially how the star thing on the side can be used in the level 3 slot. The picture shows it being used with Taddle Quest, so maybe it'll be the gashat for Brave and Snipe's final forms as well? I dunno, just seems weird to me that Para-Dx gets a final form but they don't seem to yet.

-Speaking of which, Perfect Knockout Gamer looks really cool. I wish he had a little more of the "nerdy" design of Puzzle Gamer, but the Chinese design is solid. The Parabolagun, on the other hand, might be the ugliest weapon in Ex-Aid. The handle is just too long for how small the axe and gun are. Otherwise it would be ok.

-I agree Chronos is a little underwhelming. On the other hand, the fact that his design seems to be only green and black might look really unique on an actual suit...I don't feel like I can judge him just yet. I do like how the Bugvisor 2 seems to be able to be used as a weapon even when being used as a driver, since the original doesn't seem to be able to do that.

-And the biggest surprise, Kamen Rider Poppy is actually happening! And with a new dating sim gashat, rather than her version of the Doremifa Beat one! She looks great and I love that she uses the Buggle Driver 2, though I feel like her chestplate is a little bland and kind of wish she had a rider gauge or something similar.

On the topic of female riders, I think the main issue is not the amount of them, but the treatment of them. They're infamous for almost always dying, even when it's pretty unnecessary (I maintain Marika's death was incredibly pointless). It's kind of crazy actually how just seeing Poppy become a rider is both exciting and worrying. Hopefully she'll be a little more Kivala and pre-death Marika, and a little less Femme and Dark Necrom P.

Speaking of Kivala, won't this be the first time since Decade where the female rider is actually the lead female?
