OK, sorry for this, but can you address my other replies regarding the movie, like the coping or the plot continuities?

(And, yes, I am referring to the series about the horrors of war as "light-hearted".) So if you're saying there's less drama in the first part because it's a more fun show, I could be into that! But, also, yes, Inoue. I'm not sure if I'm prepared to risk being booted from the boards by stanning the second part of Hibiki, but it's definitely a possibility.

The fact is Blade actually names all the characters (monster of the weeks are written on the card). If you chose to be ignorant about it, then it's not the show's fault. And for phase 1 and phase 2, how good/bad probably shouldn't be measured solely by comedy alone. Or that, about being less light-hearted, addressing darker themes at times can be good, evoking feelings in a sense of despair, grittiness, realism. And obviously, either (anything obviously, which is why not judging by lack of an aspect alone) works only if used right, and no unnecessary utilization. Like for some, comedy can feel, trivializing or downgrading the emotional content (it still depends on context, if it's the audience or the series' mistake in this take). And even then, well, you did say that it doesn't mean phase 1 isn't funny, but comedy isn't necessarily about over the top stuff like phase 2 has, like there characters are extremely exaggerated and openly animated in traits, where phase 1 is more grounded, like the "headquarters" such as Kotaro's house compared to CR.

They already exist before they met the classic Riders, and that's what I ask, what are they striving for as Riders (time without classic Riders). They're being a dick to classic Riders, but classic Riders existing or not, they became Riders.
