Yeah, I mean, it's a pretty common Kamen Rider problem, at least in the shows I've seen, where the middle chunk is the problematic part.

I can see why. The first chunk, everything's fresh and new and SO MANY FORM CHANGES. The final chunk, it's huge twists and real deaths and a year's worth of themes reaching their crescendo. The middle chunk, uh... let's focus on the secondary Riders? Maybe that'll fill time? The only show I can think of that had a great middle chunk is probably Ex-Aid, specifically because they had so many secondary Riders to focus on. (EDITED TO ADD: Also, Ghost. Jesus, I just watched that goddamn show and I already forgot about it whoops I'm doing great at this.) I mean, I don't think most shows middles sucked or anything (well, Wizard), they're just not where the best material is. Still, yeah, there's still stuff to get excited about here.
