For starters, diorama scenes weren't shot inside a studio but were actually filmed outside, making use of natural lighting. Then there was the whole not using reusable henshin footage as much and going Kamen Rider with it for the majority of the show. The costume department dropped the tights for the year, going with a techwear-ish faux leather combat suit you would expect from a non-sentai show.Overall, the tone, was comparatively grounded than its predecessors, or that seemed to be the intent I think. And let's not forget the little nod to MMPR.
But yeah, the way it was presented was quite different and I guess that was what clicked for those who wanted something experimental for a lack of better words after an anniversary show that went all-out at the time.
Personally, the faux sibling relationship these three had was fun to watch as well looking back.
