Well, I can't stop you from liking it.

Anyway, Decade 8. Blade World.
Tsukasa is being a prick again, but this is counterbalanced by everyone in this world being pricks, so it's just one giant prick hoedown.
Oh boy, look at that. Yusuke was the one to convince Kazuma to not leave. What a shocker that he's the only one who does anything. Actual Kuuga fans might call betrayal on him, and others might get angry that he's not involving himself in the fights, but he's pretty much the only tolerable character.

I found Yuuske to be my favorite character on the show. Decade was my first rider series so I've always enjoyed it for what it is. Mindless action with power spam. 2 things I love immensely

Well, I like story telling, not Michael Bay's Kamen Rider.

Kamen Rider episode 1

I had no idea that the Shocker Grunts evolved into what we know them as over time. The weird green and red swirl faces and berets were not as iconic , that is for damn sure.

I like story telling too. I just like Decade for what it is, which is a show with no real plot. I just enjoy it for the good points there are. I fucking hate Bay BTW.

Not entirely. He has some valid points on the whole Joe and Barizorg storyine.

I watched all of Decade and all i got out of it was how cool Decade looks. I still pretty much hate Tsukasa and the whole cast minus Yusuke.

The problem is that I have a hard time enjoying something with no plot when I'm investing around 15 hours into it.
It's not just a brainless summer blockbuster that I watch for an hour and a half and have fun.

The classic "luchador" style Shocker Grunt didn't debut until Ichimonji takes over around episode 17. During Hongo's first run they wear face paint that's meant to in some way resemble the specific MotW they work for. And even then it's mostly plain black bodysuits. The skeleton chest doesn't appear until much later.
