I'll remember that the next time someone complains about the next media producer doing something contrary to, say, Tolkien's legacy.

Are the early years of Phase I Heisei (pre-second half of Kabuto) too much to ask for? That' pretty much what I would like out of Rider again. W, Gaim and Build are the closest to it.
