Quote:

Kamen Riders that come from the post-Decade, also known in the western fan term as the "Neo-Heisei" era, which started with Kamen Rider W.

Officially speaking, the 2nd Phase-Heisei Era Riders are still part of the Heisei era timeline that Japan is following, so they are still Heisei Era Kamen Riders.

But yeah, I meant regular Heisei era.

Drive was somewhat inspired by Knight Rider

So...?

Not a lot of people like the Fourze suits

Obviously, I mean they could've made his suit look so much cooler. Not using that helmet would've helped a lot in my opinion.

Quote:

Japan's strict on gender roles and Kamen Rider's target audience is male

I know. But if they can put homosexuals within Kamen Rider. Then they can push the envelope even further and do a woman lead.

To follow on from Ultra’s post, a female-centred series could be web-exclusive.

They could do it. The question is rather would they? The only thing that they would have to do. Is to make the male secondary rider be as badass as any other first string rider.

Yeah, but as we all know. We don't watch Kamen Rider to see what type of vehicle he's going to be operating.

I don't have a problem with it either (I'm just poking fun at it) It was a welcome change from years of seeing a motorcycle all of the time.

I don't know. Would it Sunred?

It's called Kamen Rider when you think of "Rider" you think of a person riding on something. Not "in" something.

See above for retorts to these statements.

Gee,that was the concept. Let's put him in a car instead of riding a motorcycle. He wasn't still riding a motorcycle while having a "car motif" was he?

Quote:

Yes, at the moment.

See above for my retort to this statement.

It's basically a car that can talk. Now make it transform into a robot....now you're talking.

That said, I really like riders having vehicles of any type, no matter how seldom they use them. Really helps the series stand out to me.

Agreed, but they really don't need them. In recent years the only time the bikes (vehicle) really played a significant role. Was in Wizard and Ghost. when they used them to mount on those robot creatures.
