Wait a minute, I thought kids were supposed to be smarter than media producers gave them credit for. That's what the fandom always says when it comes to a show doing something they don't like. Now you do the reverse (kids don't care!) when you don't like what is being said. Make up your mind, please.

Ishinomori isn't alive anymore and died before KR had developed to the point it is today so saying that means fuck all. For all we know he could have liked the idea of lighthearted Riders, but we don't know and never will know

Just saying, that's the target audience. Kids are smarter than people give them credit for, but at the end of the day, Toei only cares about toy sales and it's clearly working out for them. At the end of the day Kamen Rider is a toy commercial so your "NEED DARK LIGHT BAAAD" is already kinda ruined by the sheer toyetic nature that's always working. If Kamen Rider Build wasn't a Kamen Rider show, I could get a bunch of people to try it, but no they see a techno music sword or pirate train gun and back out.
