Yeah, I remember Oh My God They Got Den-O To Come Back being a big thing from a recent movie. (Build/Zi-O?) I've only seen little bit of why he's so great, and I'm excited to see the rest.

Hopefully it'll stick! Kabuto was one where I wasn't happy with the series signature until, like Episode 3 or 4. Like everything in Phase 1, I will never top Faiz's:

It's the same trick that was used in Ryuki, with Shinji's little moped, where I find it really nicely underscores the everyman status of the protagonist that they have something broadly similar to a proper motorcycle, so you can tell they're a Kamen Rider hero if you squint, but with none of the cool factor. I just find it so endearing for some reason.
I wonder if the whole concept of Den-O being a train guy is so that when snarky fans complained about another Kamen Rider who doesn't ride anything, they could just shout
HE RIDES A TRAIN
and shut them up.
Also, yeah, him riding a bike around is a pretty cute way of having a less powerful version of a Kamen Rider trope. Even his scarf, is, like, adorable? It's this red Kamen Rider Scarf, but it's wrapped tight instead of flying free. Probably a metaphor in there somewhere!
