Can I be the Sixth Ranger? I love Ghost. Even have the Ore Icon.

Speaking of Ghost.... Akari never became a Rider. I'd love it if Mei became a Rider, but it's not a dealbreaker for me. Like someone else said, she'd have to earn it. Even then, she's the Heart of the group, and it seems she'd replace Sophia in the future. Inb4 "Kamen Rider Riposte" Vcin--

-In other news, holy cow I love that group shot of all of them with the swords and its night and it's epic and aaaaa?

Oh dang. I love this show to bits. Yeah, it fell flat in some areas. But it certainly was a unique take on multi-rider shows. Felt more like a Sentai.

Yet it had that cheesy "friendship" ideology that makes me love games like Kingdom Hearts or shounen anime like Gurren Lagann (note: have yet to finish GL even now, need a DVD set 'cause I know I'll love it).

I certainly loved looking forward to it each week. The show grabbed me from episode one. Whereas everyone hated on the CGI and rushed setting of the first arc, I felt it was fine since Touma was kinda the audience surrogate, learning things on a need-to-know basis as we did. No wonder the arc felt so fast-paced. A full-on war wasn't gonna slow down for the newbie.

As the show progressed, it got better with its pacing, though it was still breakneck pace. Which was fine. Gotta hand that to Fukuda and his writing friends. Funny that a show about writing (mostly supernatural swords- but writing, too, kinda) had a ton of writers.

Speaking of writers, as of this episode, head writer Fukuda's written 12 episodes of this show if my counting is correct. I find that fascinating. Even though laying the groundwork for toy releases and plot beats is hard, I'd imagine, I still find it interesting how he managed to write so many episodes. I know it's not Ex-Aid or Build with both head writers doing most of, if not all, of the episodes. But I still find it impressive. Good job Fukuda! *clapping*
