He's barely in it, doesn't use a shiny finishing move, and is basically just observing mainstream Gaim from the sidelines. No, they will not have had their fill from just watching that.

Can I just say what I know we're all thinking... Zack is a horrible goalie 3

If anything, this episode shows how awesome Kamen Riders playing soccer can be.

That part about the kurokages and oren pierre with the soldiers is from the movie not from the show

.... Have I mentioned I hate tie-ins.

Man I loved this episode. It was a fun little stop form being so heavy into the story. I can't really see the problem who these tie in episodes. They've only happened three times, promote new material and be fun.

Now this episode wants to make me watch the film, when it's subbed in like a year.

That's three episodes the show could've used for more story.

This show's pacing has already been dropping, it doesn't need these useless interruptions killing the pace more.

"Legacy" meant nothing during the decade gap between Black RX and Kuuga, and "Legacy" meant nothing to gigantic flop that was Shin.
You would be surprised at how one bad decision can destroy a franchise, regardless of it's "Legacy."
Not helped that KR and SS have been on general declines in viewership.

All of this.

You have Takatora falling into the water, Kouta rushing to him hoping he arrives before the brothers destroy each other, and... have some Soccer. I'm sorry, but that's idiotic.

Ok, but one episode in a series I feel is different than a movie that was way different than anything before it.
