Kenzan... is a pretty solid suit, but doesn't quite get my brain firing as much as the other base Rider suits so far? It's
fine
at communicating the whole ninja thing; the shuriken visor is really nice, the suit in general is a lot more pared down than the others in what almost feels like a padded wetsuit, the colour scheme is pretty solid... but I just can't quite get into it.
I guess part of it is that for me usually a suit has to match up with the characters or be saying something about them or having something else interesting about it, and it leads me to the question of
why is this guy a ninja???
To start it feels a little weird that the organisation of knights - where everyone else so far is just a different type of knight - would just have a ninja as one of them, but I could get around that if it matched up with Kenzan's character which it doesn't? He's the literal
opposite
of a ninja??? He's all about pure strength rather than speed or agility, he doesn't care for stealth or tactics or anything like that, and spoilers but learning to be a ninja or whatever isn't gonna be part of his character growth... I dunno, it's just weird. It feels like either the Ninja Rider toys got randomly applied to this character or vice versa. I'm not gonna go on about it too much because, sure, whatever; but it has always felt very weird and incongruent to me
