Agreed, of all the Riders in this show who think they're just playing a game, those guys really think they're just playing a game.

And they're awful at it.

Bravo was freaking fantastic. Definitely my fav of the season so far.

Oren Pierre Alfonso AKA Kamen Rider Bravo AKA Mr. Dangerous is so FREAKING FABULOUS!! I love his flair while doing the henshin. In terms of drag queen he's better than the manager of Donut Shop Hungry. Since he's not part of the Invess Games it'll be interesting to see how he will stir the pot of the Battle between the dance troupes.

loving the pacing on this show, not stagnant at all.

Gotta agree with everyone else, the buddy comedy between Guridon and Kurokage is really fun. I've said it before but, damn the Gaim suits are awesome. Not a single design I don't adore.Shame we don't seem to be getting Bravo in the AC line though.

Look forward to seeing where the series is gonna go now that all of the drivers are 'in testing'.

Mister Dangerous is some scary shit. Fighting. Just to fight. Because the game itself isn't pretty enough...

People are going to die. Many. Many. People.

THis episode was pretty good, but I'm really getting a Ryuki vibe from this show. There are just way too many riders already. I do like the change of pace, but I would like to see some more MotW already.

As for Pierre, you know, if it wasn't for the doughtnut cross dresser dude in Wizard, I probably would have no issue with him, but he seems no different than that guy, so I'm over it. And I'm also over the stupid dance battle crap. Can we move away from that shit already?

Negatives aside, I am looking forward to seeing where this show is going to go. It does seem like there is going to be Norse mythology within it beyond just the name Yggdrasil, so that is a plus. I just wished they would slow down on the rider count and develop the characters they have now.

The difference between this and Ryuki, obviously right off the bat, is that we're not seeing Gaim have to kill every rider he runs in to. I love that the entire theme begins with a bunch of dance groups competing in Inves games to determine who wins a stage, only to take it WAY too far with Sengoku Drivers and basically creating this uber dangerous situation where, now, a non-Inves Rider is here to basically destroy everyone.

It's a shame the ratings aren't that high, but this is the type of show that could revive a franchise. It's THAT good.

Kiryu · 11-22-2013, 01:20 AM

Personally, I like the fact that they're doing this Rider of the Week formula instead of a new monster.

It shakes up the status quo and makes it a MUCH bigger deal when one is summoned to the human world.

Bravo is freaking amazing! I hope he stays around.

Bonus- me and Kouta share the same birthday. I knew I liked him for a reason.
