Then TV has always lied to me when showing those in hospital scenes. Not to mention that Kuuga's heart stopping is just a minor, temporary inconvenience

That they have. Kuuga isn't even the worst offense, and it worries me that so many medical shows are basically teaching people how to make things worse.

A defibrillator actually stops your heart if it's beating erradically, so it can resume beating normally by itself. And it doesn't make you flop like a fish when you're shocked, and is actually just as often used on concious patients rather than flatlined "dead" people.

If your heart stops, shocking it won't make it restart. I'm honestly surprised the trope of electric shocks to your heart being a good thing has caught on.

Great, now Ex-Aid NEEDS to poke fun at that

If I recall, the show made it a point that trying to revive Godai was actually a bad idea, and the use of a defibrillator was Godai's decision because of the power boost it had initially given him.

While it doesn't really have much to do with medical science, basically Kuuga was put into the Odinsleep, and the defibrillator just woke him up early. The show made it a point that they almost made things worse when they "Revived" him.

Considering Ex-aid is the only other rider I can think of besides Kuuga that shouts "____ henshin" in order to change forms, I feel like the comparisons are apropriate lol.

That's more of an explanation given than any other fictional use of the device/practice.

Point goes to Kuuga!

Who here thinks will last the longest in a G3 suit. Here's the situation, it is you vs swarms of ant unknowns from the G4 film and you only get the guard acceler for a weapon.

If you are not sure what it is, this thingy

Wrong thread!

I don't know what it has to do with Kamen Rider, but...Let's be real. It'd be RID2015 and G1. As if they'd bring back anything in between

Though yes, I think it would be a pretty cool idea, and I'd totally be down for a massive TF crossover. It would be hell if they just brought back Primes and Bees/Kid appeal characters, so they'd have to have some sort of crazy balance.

The crazy thing about this is that it was a trope that was created and propagated by some lazy screenwriter and it just stuck. Someone with absolutely no life could probably track down "patient zero" on this.
