I watched like, the first 4 episodes of Masked Rider once.

...regrets? I have none.

I watched Masked Rider when I was young.
Mercifully, VR Troopers and Beetleborgs left a bigger impression on me, so I don't remember a damn thing

Well, it's been a long-time goal for me now to eventually watch everything Kamen Rider. I have been conflicted about what to do about Masked Rider, considering. It's not even technically called Kamen Rider, so for a while I just was planning to ignore it, but I secretly knew I wasn't satisfied with that disqualifying technicality. I'm too much of a damn completionist.

Plus I was kind of curious about how terrible it actually was.

(turns out it's very)

So, I'm doing something a little different. I'm planning to watch one episode of Masked Rider for every ten episodes of real Rider. That way I can get it out of the way, never suffer too much at once, plus it'll only take me 400 episodes to finish.

But yeah. I've had better ideas.

Masked Rider is a double definition... of face palm and cringe.

I watched all of Masked Rider a couple of years ago.

I wish I'd left it in my childhood.

Man, the Masked Rider hate is still real, huh?

Maybe I'm just blocking out its horribleness, but I remember it seeming basically on par with pretty much any other Saban adaptation at the time. Which isn't exactly a compliment, but...

I wonder if there's anyone out there who's like, super nostalgic about it.

Also, this provides a great excuse for me to share the best thing to come out of the show.

Having watched Beetleborgs at roughly the same time, I would say that's marginally tolerable. Not by much mind you though.

VR Troopers I never liked

That's because 90's Saban has always been kinda crap

It's like Poetry. Horrible, middle-school Poetry.
