Die, not to nitpick, but it looks like you made a typo here. I think you meant to say "especially the ones with Shunpei/Jean/Hiiro's dad in them"? Characters that awesome give any show with them in it a clear advantage, after all.

Being more serious, I think I've mentioned somewhere before that I don't actually have a proper date for when I watched that first episode of OOO, but I do know it was somewhere in spring (like April or May maybe?), which means, at some point or another this year, I'll have been watching Kamen Rider for an entire decade, which is insane to think about, but also, just like, really cool?

Also, as a special Riderversary present, please allow me to do my usual thing and say that Simulation Gamer is kinda awesome? Like, I'm pretty sure the initial catalogue scans and everything meant we saw both Brave and Snipe's new forms around the same time before they debuted, and like, obviously Fantasy Gamer looked way cooler. But then, come their appearances on the show, I feel like Snipe ended up getting the way cooler focus episode out of the deal (and Hiiro's was pretty good in its own right), and then from that point on, he's constantly making strategic use of that doofy ship armor, even as everyone around him gets more powerful upgrades, and somewhere along the way, I ended up super endeared to that design. It's not a kind of overly busy garish I'd defend as legitimately smart and thoroughly considered the way I would a lot of Ex-Aid's suits, but I mean, on the other hand, his little sailor hat is SO adorable.
