You're not wrong. Taboo is one of my favorite KRider villains of all time. The design of the monster suit is brilliant, and I was pretty shocked by the way she's eventually just broken and cast aside like a piece of garbage.

And I do think Phillips death would've had much more emotional weight if he'd stayed dead, but it still manages to hit pretty hard when it happens even though he comes back.

W was the first Rider series I just totally fell for and binge watched in just a couple/few days. I'd been watching a lot of Showa era things and just figured, "let me try something a little newer." And I totally fell for the designs and characters, the flashy style of fighting, the monster designs (I really love monster suits, must be the Godzilla/Gamera fanboy in me.)

So it has been fun reading Fish Sandwich waxing philosophical about 'W'. I agree with most of the observations but I'm an easy sell because for some reason it's just been a real favorite.

I really like all the Kamen Rider series I've seen, but for some reason 'W' just has characters I really liked very much and enjoyed watching.

Even Akiko I find adorable even though for some reason a lot of people seem to dislike her.
