[FreshToku]

A ton of fun is exactly how I'd sum up this movie. Just about every Rider summer movie is better off being a standalone adventure that vaguely encapsulates all the show has to offer. The Seven Oni just happens to forgo the part of feeling anything like the TV show, which to be fair, the TV show would proceed to do too at this point forward. This movie is a lot more straightforward an action movie than Missing Ace was (or like, any of the previous movies, actually), but that just means there's no weird plot threads or awkward decisions for me to get hung up on, so plus-plus.

Hibiki breathing fire right into that samurai-looking fellow's mouth, his showdown with Kabuki, all seven heroes consecutively performing their finishers on the big bad Makamou, and even shiny new action-figure Hibiki cutting down the big CGI monster are all basically ingrained into mind. It's incredibly entertaining the way a yearly tokusatsu in the summer should be. Just chew on some popcorn and watch things go pop.

Bet he immediately felt bad when the girl he decided was Akira got eaten really early in the story. "Whoops. Maybe I should have held off my casting for a little bit."
