Never watched this, so I have very little to say. Apparently it was three episodes? I thought it was just a one-shot.

So Ninninger and Zi-O actually had the same head writer, Kento Shimoyama. He didn't actually write the Shinobi miniseries, though. That took a surprising amount of time to look up, but the Zi-O page on the Kamen Rider Wiki is a fucking mess because of all the guest stars.

The only
real
misfire is the absolutely insane detail of Rentarou?s sister having a crush on his secret identity (gross), which Rentarou is super excited about (GROSS). It?s a bizarre gag to try and pull off, because it ends up making both Rentarou and Icchy look like massive creeps. Iroha is
seventeen years old
. The idea that grown-ass-adult Icchy is wistfully saying her name is alarming enough, but Rentarou even
inadvertently
stringing his own sister along as a love interest is mortifying. Rentarou should have immediately confided in Iroha that he?s Shinobi, if only to dissuade her from crushing on him. (But also because it?s uncool to hide his identity from his sister? Who is also in peril? That he didn?t tell her about?) There?s no need for this plotline, and I can?t believe it made it out of the planning stages.
So this is a thing that you run into with Japanese media sometimes. I'm not even remotely into anime, but I know enough about the current state of the medium to know that this shit pops up with alarming frequency there. I don't know if Shinobi pulls the "not blood siblings" card, but at least you can be grateful that she's 17 and not 12.
