And so we have Kamen Rider Falchion showing up! He's pretty cool, especially given the fact that most of his suit is reused from the base Kamen Rider Ghost transient suit.

If there's one thing Toei and PLEX are good at, it's utilizing the blank slate that is the transient forms from Ghost to make new Riders out of. It's honestly insane how well they manage to do it at points.

But yeah, here we have Bahato (or Bacht) whichever you prefer. He's an interesting dude, a very simplistic goal and resolve, which clashes against Touma rather well.

While I get that this movie being the last act of a Rider Movie isn't everyone's cup of tea... I do actually enjoy it. I feel like if they did anything else, like a detailed plot, it'd come off as like just a movie version of what's in the show. Which technically it is just a movie version of what's in the show given the fact that the full blown Saber insanity is on display here with how we just go full throttle, full speed right from the get go.

There's just something really cool and mythical about these color coded armored warriors fighting through hordes of enemies while shouting their own quips, beliefs, remarks at what's going on around them. Like, just the idea of Knights shouting and calling out to each other or their opponents, it really fits the fantasy vibe that Saber's trying to go with.

Also just getting to see these cool variations on the finishers that you know are never going to show up again at all is real nice. I like it when we get different styles of finishing moves for the same forms and stuff, especially with a movie budget added to them.

Also I think my favorite Touma moment is at the very beginning. Not anything he said to the kid by the way, just the fact that he has the audacity to hang around in a park space reading his own goddamn book. It's hilarious, it's egotistical, it's incredible honestly.

Another one of my favorite moments is at the very end where everyone is just hanging out and running ahead to play in the park... Kento is sorta just standing behind. Ogami notices this and being the dad he is goes and wrangle Kento to get him over with everyone else. It's a very subtle moment, but I really like that.

Saber Emotional Dragon is also very cool. Before the Shield Raise Buckle there was Emotional Dragon's shield that got repainted from Fourze's. It's very amusing but also really cool how well they transformed the shield from a shuttle to a fantasy-like one. Emotional Dragon also does some cool bits of work at making a very enhanced base Saber form. Brave Dragon is cool, but you know what'd make it cooler? More dragons to cover the blank spots!

Oh and we bring back the lighting the prop sword on actual fire and letting the suit actor swing it! Always a fun time when we get to do that!

Other than that... I do enjoy how Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra yet again gives us another banger track in Taju Roko, the movie's end credits theme. In which we get probably my favorite credit sequence of Rider in general?

There's just something fun about seeing all the Riders show off in a little story popup book before transitioning to who they are outside the suit and little snippets of like daily life. My favorite being Rintaro who is keeps trying to enter a convenience store only to back off at the last second. My boy, just enjoy yourself! lol

As for the story... given the small little overarching plot of the three different minor characters being there at the start and end, I had a feeling you were going to do something like that. I also find it amusing how you went for the "Man... I didn't think I was going to die by something so cool" route with Tsuyoshi and his thoughts.
