I didn't. OOO was the gateway Rider show for a lot of people and is probably the most popular Rider in the general tokunation community. That said, I'm not going to be all "baww, OOO fans only vote for their favorite!!!1!" because, honestly, OOO could totally take Kuuga. It'd be a hell of a fight, but OOO is a beast with options coming out the wazoo. Kuuga could pull it off, but honestly it's going to be a real battle for him and OOO has way more roads to victory (hell, I even listed a big one in my last post).

My thinking is that maybe this poll and Kuuga making the top four will get some people to check out his show now. If we in the Kuuga brigade can accomplish that, then I'll claim victory.

To be honest, I would've loved this to be the final battle. But my damn number generator hated me when I was randomizing which rider goes where.

. Plus, it would've made it more epic, a Rider whose kick was stated by the writers to be able to destroy the planet vs the rider who could stop time and form a black hole. Either way, the world is screwed

And trust me, this battle even makes me want to revisit Kuuga (only saw a couple of episodes and the final)

Are we forgetting... Kuuga did lose to Decade. He did, it happened, I saw it happen.

Uh, that was Yuseless. This battle is between OOO and the original Kuuga, Yusuke Godai.

For me, this is the final. Everything after this - even the one with Den-O - is unavoidably an anti-climax.

On another note, something occurred to me today. In all these similarity match-ups you missed one of the most obvious pairings of similar Riders: Dragon Knight vs. Masked Rider.
